The Director of Newsat Arise Television, Sumner Sambo has said that the Federal Government and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, owe Nigerians an explanation on what really happened about the trial of former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
Sambo stated this on Wednesday when he appeared as a guest in an interview on ‘Prime Time’, a programme on Arise Television.
His remark came shortly after a London court discharged and acquitted Alison-Madueke of all charges after 11 years.
He said that it was good that Alison-Madueke had asserted her innocence and got justice.
“The Federal Government and the EFCC owe Nigerians an explanation of what really happened.
“This is the same case in which they previously informed the public that they had recovered certain assets and valuables.
“They now need to clarify what has changed and why the outcome appears different.
“It is important for them to explain whether relevant facts were properly presented to the British authorities and why a different conclusion may have been reached,” he said.
