Nigerians are still reeling from the shock of the amendment of the 14-count charge filed against Allison Madueke Diezani, former Minister of Petroleum by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). However, there are speculations that the amendment of the 14-count charge to a 4-count charge may or may not be related to the victory of the All Progressives Congress at the November 16 Bayelsa Governorship elections
The Herald earlier reported that EFCC has dropped the 14-count charge against former Petroleum Minister. Nigerians have taken to different social media platforms to react to this news.

Jonathan visited Buhari in Asorock, APC won election in Bayelsa, the new governor Lyon went to visit Jonathan in Otuoke, next Diezani case dropped. Our politicians know what they are doing, Nigerians also must know what they are doing. All I see is a Siamese Twin. #Nigeria
@Intergrity56
Please forgive me, But I want to ask. If PDP had won 2015 Presidential election, would Diezani Alison-Madueke have fallen sick and bedridden in the UK?

What is good for Danjuma Goje and Musiliu Obanikoro is good for Alison-Madueke The EFCC is now applying federal character in its pardon One Nigeria
@womenvoiceNG_
@officialEFCC dropped charges against Dizeani after APC grabbed Bayelsa. Some people did not even know that Dizeani is from Bayelsa state, related to Goodluck Jonathan. You are left guess why the charges we’re dropped.

@RealOlaudah
This administration is doing all it can to pacify the political class & build bridges sequel to a third term bid. The Diezani matter is another pointer to it’s reapproachment with the Jonathan camp. Next will be Patience’s money. Opposition politics is now Dead on Arrival.
@SirSmithM
EFCC drop corruption charges against Allison-Madueke, after all the noise. My people, it seems the law of our land Nigeria only favour the Rich and not the poor. Forget about Democracy, its only demonstration of craze in Fela’s voice. #diezani
