EFCC Deletes Controversial Post On Ex-Minister, Diezani

The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) has deleted an Instagram post quoting a former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Allison-Madueke, as speaking on money laundering charges brought against her.

The social media post claimed that the former minister spoke in an interview with journalists in the United Kingdom.

However, further checks revealed that the post had been pulled down from the anti-graft agency’s official Instagram handle.

Meanwhile, the spokesperson for the EFCC, Dele Oyewale, denied the report, while noting that the report didn’t come from nor was it signed by the anti-graft agency.
