Nominated to the Noble Peace Prize after financial donation

Kjell Magne Bondevik’s organisation the Oslo Centre received NOK 600 000 from the foundation of a very wealthy Catholic pastor from Nigeria. Six months later, Bondevik’s collaborating partner Aamir J. Sheikh asked a Member of Parliament to nominate the pastor for a Nobel Peace Prize. "This had nothing to do with the Madonna Foundation"s support for the Oslo Center," says Sheikh.
