The United States is seeking an order in court to forfeit funds and assets worth $144m that the former minister acquired as part of “an international conspiracy to obtain lucrative business opportunities in the Nigerian oil and gas sector.”
Diezani looted from the country’s treasury, colluding with two associates, Kolawole Aluko and Jide Omokore who helped her to launder “the proceeds of the illicit business opportunities into and through the United States.”
