£50 Million Yacht Owner Will Be Facing Charges In Connection With Diezani's Looting


The £50 million yacht Beyonce and Jay Z has been cruising around in actually owned by the Nigerian oil tycoon Kola Aluko will be facing charges in connection with Diezani's looting case.

There were strong indications on Wednesday that Switzerland might extradite a Nigerian oil baron, Kola Aluko, to the United Kingdom.


The Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland, in an electronic mail sent to one of the Punch correspondents, confirmed that the UK had sought for mutual legal assistance from its country.



It was also asked to specify the time the extradition process would begin and when he would be extradited.



In his response, Nathalie Guth of the Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland, stated, “I refer to your request of today and we can confirm that the Office of the Attorney General of Switzerland (OAG) has received a request for mutual legal assistance from England in this context.”



A top security official in the United Kingdom included that the probe of Aluko may lead to his deportation to the United Kingdom. He said, “There are strong links between the former oil minister and Aluko. Extradition is not out of question.”



Aluko is an associate of Alison-Madueke. Another oil baron and Chairman of Atlantic Energy, Jide Omokore, was on Monday quizzed by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission over the ongoing investigation into the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation.
