Nigerians can't stop talking about the fresh details of how Nigeria’s former Petroleum Resources Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke, plotted her escape from Nigeria during Goodluck Jonathan administration in 2015.
It was gathered that, Diezani who is still on trial for corruption in Nigeria, lobbied and became Trade and Investment Commissioner of the Dominican Republic and bagged a diplomatic passport from the island government.
It was learnt that with the diplomatic passport, she is immune to arrest by any law enforcement agency, including the Interpol.
Recall that, the former Petroleum Minister Diezani Alison-Madueke was said to have allegedly organized a diversion of $6 billion (N1. 2 trillion) from the Nigerian treasury. She has been charged with responsibility for $20 billion missing from the Petroleum agency.
Some Nigerians on social media believed she acted smart on the government with her well-planned plot that needs to be made into Netflix series.

Diezani got Dominican citizenship just about the time she left office. Well planned, properly thought through and superbly executed; her ‘escape.’Nah, this mama chess move needs to be made into a Netflix series cos na potential blockbuster.— E (@iamOkon) June 7, 2020
This Diezani Dominican Republic matter is not a new story. It didn’t stop for UK for arresting and prosecuting her and as we speak, she can’t travel out of the UK. Some websites basically reposted news from last year as news without any update.— JJ. Omojuwa (@Omojuwa) June 7, 2020
EFCC is the greatest PR of all time in Nigeria.They arrested Naira Marley and made him a superstar.They arrested Diezani Allison-Madueke and made her an investment commissioner in Dominican Republic.😂😂🤝— POJE🧢 (@Iam_Poje) June 7, 2020
They were all after Diezani like she was the first person to steal. Literally almost ruined the woman’s life for cutting her own share of the National Cake.Obasanjo cut, nobody talk, IBB cut, nobody talk, even Buhari cut and came back to cut again, nobody is crying.

Some people in the system are insinuating like some of of us had known. The real problem some people have with Diezani, is not that she is a thief. Their problem is that Diezani was stealing in the place, where they used to steal. They are back to the place and all is well now.— #Leadership (@Maazi_Dan) June 7, 2020
