IN reply to BS Shinder above (sp?)
Yea they both could be Fascists with evil deeds in their future. So far this Libertarian sees the Clinton's work as the one to be most concerned with. I may vote Trump, but I am a Libertarian Johnson guy. However, their is no way in hell that I could see such evil get a pass in my lifetime when it comes to Hillary for Pres and what to do with my vote and influence with my friends. This corruption is in dire need of a fair trial.
ETA: Oh, I crossed over for Cruz in the primary and can't blame him for not selling his wife out and endorsing the Donald. He had the best chance to be a conservative in office and he is not perfect. Canadian or not, he is a great Constitutional scholar.

I see. So facts DON'T matter, just the leaning of who delivers them. Did you even read it or do you just want to debunk it with a one liner?
PERHAPS THE MOST PROMINENT Nigerian with ties to the Clintons is Houston-based Kase Lawal. The founder of CAMAC Energy, an oil exploration and energy consortium, Lawal had a long history with Bill Clinton before becoming a “bundler” for Hillary’s 2008 presidential bid, amassing $100,000 in contributions and hosting a fundraiser in his Houston home—a 14-room, 15,264-square-foot mansion. Lawal maxed out donations to Hillary’s 2016 primary campaign, and his wife Eileen donated $50,000—the most allowed—to President Obama’s 2009 inaugural committee.
Lawal describes himself as a devout Muslim who began memorizing the Quran at age 3 while attending an Islamic school. “Religion played a very important role in our lives,” he told a reporter in 2006. “Every time you finish a chapter they kill a chicken, and if you finish the whole thing, a goat.”
Today the Houston oil exec—who retired in May as CEO but continues as chairman of the board of CAMAC, now called Erin Energy—tops the list of wealthiest Nigerians living in North America. His firm reports about $2.5 billion in annual revenue, making it one of the top private companies in the United States.
In Africa, Lawal has been at the center of multiple criminal proceedings, even operating as a fugitive. Over the last decade, he faced charges in South Africa over an illegal oil scheme along with charges in Nigeria of illegally pumping and exporting 10 million barrels of oil.
And while Hillary Clinton’s work at the Clinton Foundation is separate from her campaign, it’s worth noting that her family foundation has received at least $26 million in donations from 60 companies who lobbied the State Department during her time as Secretary of State. Some of the more prominent donors include ExxonMobil and Chevron, along with the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Let's see now. The link you provided doesn't "fact check" almost all of the research done in my OP's article. It also focuses too much on what politicians and right wing media said about Clinton instead of, you know, looking at all the sources of those claims. There are more than just one article within the main one there spread on two pages.
For example the two part investigative series of Belz and Derrick is worth reading.
Part 1 - Troubling Ties
Part 2 - Fatal Connections

Clintons swim in petrol money, they support shady companies in Nigeria that brings money into their precious Clinton foundation.
Hillary Clinton and fossil fueled laundry
