Allison Madueke corruption.
The level of corruption in Nigeria is just mind boggling! In fact,i think we are the most corrupt nation in the world! You can never get nothing on merit or through the proper channels.Everything ahs to be underhand.
The Indian High Commissioner to Nigeria, Ajjampur R. Ghanashyam, has revealed the former Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs Diezani Allison Madueke, failed to sign  a long-term agreement with New Delhi, Nigeria’s Number One oil buyer, but rather used intermediaries in the annual $15 billion deal. 

The High Commissioner stated that Nigeria is the only country who uses intermediaries in its oil deals with India,Instead of Signing Long-Term Agreement ,she delayed Approval of

Oil Concession After Receiving $25 Million Signature Bonus 

India is now Nigeria’s number one crude buyer, an importation that grosses $15 billion yearly.Ghanashyam told Daily Trust.

“From other countries, when we buy oil, whatever we want to pay, we pay to the Ministry of Finance of that country. In Nigeria, we pay to intermediaries. We would like to be dealing directly with the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). It’s not a good thing. Why should we go through intermediaries?

“Secondly, we would also like to have long term agreement, which we have with many countries: Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, and other countries from where we buy oil. Nigeria is the only country with whom we don’t have an agreement. .. When we write a letter to NNPC, we don’t get a response,”
The Indian High Commissioner added that apart from the lack of long-term agreement between the two countries on crude oil purchases, in 2006, an Indian company, Oil & Natural Gas Commission Videsh Limited (OVL) and Mittal Energy International, which is a joint venture between OVL, an Indian government company, and Mittal Energy a private firm, applied for oil concession. The Signature bonus sum of $25 million was paid, but neither was the oil concession granted nor the money paid returned to the Indian companies.
“How many years is it? Nine years. Even to get the concession is not possible, and the money is not refunded to us. For nine years your country has been sitting on this, and they make us go round and round and round. We buy $15 billion worth of crude oil per year and we have the potential of importing $50 billion worth of crude oil from Nigeria. We can buy more because our requirement is going up.
But if you continue to make us to pay through agents, and continue to ask us to buy from the swap market, it means you don’t trust us, and if you don’t trust us, we have to look for those who trust us more. We are making concessions to Nigeria by buying your crude oil because you’re our old friends and we’ve been friends for a long time, and your crude oil is better quality. But you must take our interest into account
