The coalition urged Nigerian authorities to intensify ongoing investigations and ensure accountability over billions of dollars in allegedly missing oil revenues.

A coalition of leading anti-corruption and civil society organisations has declared that the acquittal of former Nigerian Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke, by a London jury does not erase the broader corruption allegations surrounding her tenure.

The joint statement was issued by the *Africa Network for Environment and Economic Justice (ANEEJ), the Civil Society Legislative Advocacy Centre (CISLAC)/Transparency International Nigeria, the Human and Environmental Development Agenda (HEDA Resource Centre), Spotlight on Corruption, and The Corner House (UK).
