Femi Falana, a Nigerian lawyer, has again questioned the management of Nigeria’s foreign reserves by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) under the leadership of Chukwuma Soludo.

Kim's bodyguard was always by her side -- to the point Kim joked that it got annoying -- except for the few hours he left to protect Kourtney and Kendall in a nearby nightclub. The Kardashians are in no way suggesting the bodyguard was in on it ... in fact, they say they know he wasn't. But they are convinced someone tipped off the robbers to strike at precisely the moment they could get in and out without detection. As we reported ... robbers confro...
