Nigerian Governor Arrested On Corruption Charges
The governor of Nigeria's oil-rich Bayelsa state, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha, has been arrested in the UK, the British Embassy in Lagos has confirmed.
London police say a 53-year-old man was picked by their special Economic Crimes Unit at Heathrow Airport on Thursday.
He was later released on bail for a period of two months.
Nigeria's anti-corruption body say Mr Alamieyeseigha was detained in connection with an investigation into allegations of money laundering.
