‘Bring Back Diezani’, Charly Boy, others task EFCC

Maverick musician, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, on Monday led a protest to the headquarters of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) in Abuja demanding that anti-corruption agency extradite a former Minister of Petroleum,  Diezani Alison-Madueke, back to Nigeria.

The protesters converged on the premises of the EFCC, wielding a banner which comically read, ‘Bring Back Diezani Alison-Madueke’.

It would be recalled that about two weeks ago, Charly Boy led a series of protests to demand that President Muhammadu Buhari either resume office or resign.

His group was however attacked by hoodlums at Wuse Market in the Federal Capital Territory, FCT.

The former minister, Alison-Madueke, who served under the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, has been variously linked to several corruption cases, with some properties allegedly owned by her seized by the Federal Government.

Alison-Madueke has however denied involvement in corrupt practices and that the properties seized do not belong to her.
