Alleged corruption: Diezani asks court to vacate arrest warrant

The former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, has asked the Federal High Court, Abuja, to set aside the bench warrant issued against her in July 2020.

She made the plea in a motion on notice brought by her counsel, Chief Mike Ozekhome (SAN).

The ex-minister had in the motion sought an order extending the time within which she could apply for the order discharging the bench warrant.
