Former Vice President ,Atiku Abubakar posted this picture of his industrial empire with this caption
"We met this abandoned Onne port in the 80s. Now it's the worlds biggest Oil & Gas Free Zone, creating 1000s of jobs Onne's success allows us believe that with the right vision, the private sector can partner to build Nigeria & create jobs"
Onne Oil and Gas Free Zone doesn't belong to Atiku. Intels(which Atiku have a share in) only have a stake. Intels today is biggest company in Onne Free Zone, as well as one of the pioneer stakeholders which explains Atiku's assertions.
ReplyDeleteNa so dem go pass misinformation ,we nor go school abeg
ReplyDeleteY we like spreading rumor is not atiku that own it he only has share from it
ReplyDeleteThen who owns it? Atiku is too big to claim what is not his.
DeleteLet them be sure of what they will say before going to press
ReplyDeleteAtiku & his APC folks, if it was GEJ or any senior member og PDP whose company was associated with having a stake in that onne port, they wouldn't have allowed Nigerians hear word.Come to think of it, hw did his company get involved as major stakeholder in that port? Saint Atiku take time o! Nigerians are better informed now.
ReplyDeleteSome of you guys are either ignorant or mischievously in denial. Truth is, Atiku and his Company leased abandoned Onne Port from FG in the early 80s and completely transformed it to what it is today. His claims are completely legitimate, at least until the lease expires. What he did with Onne is an example of what he could do with Nigeria currently being poorly managed by her present handlers. If you guys keep your heads out of the ground long enough, you might see the good in Atiku his detractors don't want you to see. Just because he prefers to keep the low profile does not mean he contributes immensely to our econony.
ReplyDeleteYou are correct Mr Ali, Atiku did a tremendous job with the Onne port and I'm with you that he will do a great job in Nigeria currently being handled poorly by the GEJ-led government. I believe people with good track record in business and other areas should be considered for public offices.
DeleteAtiku has done very well with Onne port and will do even better when given bigger responsibility.
...... "Just because he prefers to keep the low profile does not mean he doesn't contribute immensely to our economy"
ReplyDeleteMr Ali, thank You. We know Atiku. You don't need to campaign for him.
DeleteOnly God came make him Mr. President. For me, he doesn't have the profile to be the number 1 citizen of this country. I think EFCC should look into this claims that he owned or have a share in the Onne, because during that time Akitu was a Area Comptroller for Apapa Ports. Lets ask ourselves, how did him Mr. Akitu can or should at that time as a government staff be involve in such a scandal. That mean something went under the ground...... Nigerian be careful of this men.

If you truly know Atiku as you claim, you should have known that NICOTES took out a bank loan to develop the abandoned port. He was never an active participant in the day to day running of the private business until he retired. Assumptions that he started business with customs money are mere convenient resolves by his haters, political opponents and detractors. The guy is simply a shroud and ambitious manager. To me, I'll rather have him as president than those that have proven to be incompetent and detrimentally clueless.
DeleteYou have done very well Atiku Abubakar, Your many companies across the nation are speaking for you as a job creation and a man keen to make the lives of the Nigeria youths worth well. Keep the good work up sir.
ReplyDeleteWe are all Nigerians and should encourage any entrepreneur that invests hugely into our economy buy creating jobs opportunities and development of abandoned federal projects which are purely the basic duties of our leaders to put into functioning state. Atiku well done!
ReplyDeleteWe are tired of the clueless government running the states affairs, shame be unto them and their generations, what ever stigma they tag on Nigeria will still smell on their children's body where ever they go..
