The Nigerian government led by President Bola Tinubu has received an appeal for leniency from Diezani Madueke, a former petroleum minister under former President Goodluck Jonathan who fled to the United Kingdom out of fear of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission.

“I've been accused of financial misconduct during my tenure as the petroleum minister, and it's true. However, I would like President Bola Tinubu and Nigerians to forgive me, allow me to return home, and contribute because life is transient.”
