    ₦2.2bn Oil Subsidy Fraud: Ex-PDP Chairman’s Son Jailed For 14 Years

    A Lagos State Special Offences Court sitting in Ikeja has convicted and sentenced Mamman Nasir Ali, the son of former Peoples Democratic Party national chairman, Ahmadu Ali, and a Sierra Leonean, Christian Taylor, to 14 years imprisonment each over a ₦2.2 billion oil subsidy fraud.

    Justice Mojisola Dada sentenced the duo alongside an oil firm, Nass Man Oil Services Limited after the court found them guilty of an amended 57-count charge brought against them by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).

    The defendants were first arraigned before the court in 2012 on a 49-count charge of conspiracy to obtain money by false pretences, obtaining money by false pretences, forgery, and the use of false documents.
