Former Nigerian Oil Minister Alison-Madueke Testifies in Bribery Case Involving Luxury Shopping

Former Nigerian Oil Minister Alison-Madueke, 65, is on trial accused of accepting bribes from industry insiders who allegedly funded her luxury shopping sprees and home stays. Ghanaian businessman Okyere told NCA investigators he paid £3,900 for items at Peter Jones after seeing her lack funds at the tills, later reimbursed in cash. Alison-Madueke denies five counts of accepting bribes and conspiracy to commit bribery, claiming expenses were repaid. The prosecution alleges she received private jets, properties and luxury items worth millions.

Labour Together to rebrand after scandal involving secret probe of journalists

Labour Together, the think tank that helped deliver Keir Starmer's 2024 election landslide, is set to rebrand in mid-May after being rocked by scandal. The organization faced controversy when its then-director Josh Simons paid lobbying firm APCO Worldwide to conduct secret research into journalists investigating undisclosed donations. Simons, now a Labour MP, resigned as a government minister over the affair. New chief executive Alison Phillips says the rebrand will address perceptions of a 'factional boys' club' and that staff secondments to ministerial offices and donations to individual MPs will end.
