Nigeria's former Power Minister, Saleh Mamman, has been convicted of corruption, a major blow to the country's ongoing efforts to tackle graft and mismanagement within its government. However, in a bizarre twist, authorities are now struggling to locate Mamman, who has seemingly gone into hiding. The conviction stems from allegations of embezzlement and misappropriation of funds during his tenure as Power Minister, a position he held from 2020 to 2021. As the authorities scramble to track down Mamman, questions are being raised about the country's ability to enforce accountability and ensure justice is served.
Former Power Minister Saleh Mamman was convicted last week - but the authorities do not know his whereabouts.
