    Nigerian Bundler Illegally Raises Money For Obama

    "Nigeria seizes money for Obama" from BBC News reports that a bundler who is head of the Nigerian stock exchange was arrested for raising money for Barack Obama's campaign - which is illegal as donations from foreigners is not allowed in the United States. 

    The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission said it would give the money back to those who attended a gala dinner in Lagos last month.

    The EFCC said it had seized 74m naira ($630,000, £314,000), but said no Nigerian laws had been broken.
