What happened
Former Minister of the Interior (2011-2015). Stands trial in connection with the March 2014 Nigerian Immigration Service recruitment scam in which approximately 19 applicants were killed in stampedes nationwide. The 'employment scam' framing in HEDA understates the scandal — this is the deaths-of-applicants case.
