Bola Tinebu Again On The News by Gjrich(m): 6:12pm On Jan 10, 2016 |
The National Leader of
the All Progressives
Congress, APC, and
owner of the Nation
Newspaper, Bola
Tinubu, has
returned his own share
of the N9 million
received from the
Office of the National
Security Adviser, ONSA,
through the Newspaper
Proprietor Association
of Nigeria, NPAN.
This is coming after the
Sun Newspaper also
surrendered its own
share to the Federal
Government and as the
Punch Newspaper also
suspended its
membership from the
association following its
involvement in the
arms scandal.
Recall that
investigations from the
Economic and Financial
Crimes Commission,
EFCC, had traced a
suspicious transfer of
funds from the former
NSA, Sambo Dasuki to
Newspaper outlets
including Tinubu’s own
Nation Newspaper.
Obviously embarrassed
by the trend of events
following the arms
scandal, Tinubu may
have pressed on his
company directors to
file an explanation and
immediately return his
own share of N9 million
received.
“We are again
compelled to comment
on the N9 million
received by Vintage
Press Limited as
compensation from the
government of ex-
President Goodluck
Jonathan through the
Newspapers Proprietors
Association of Nigeria
(NPAN) for the seizure
of our publications, The
Nation and Sporting
Life in June, 2014.
“We do this for two
reasons. First, to
restate the sequence of
events that culminated
in the payment ,
thereby debunking
insinuations about the
motive for the
compensation. Second,
to inform the public
that the N9 million
collected from NPAN on
behalf of the Jonathan
government has been
returned to the
association .
“This decision was
arrived at on
Wednesday by the
Board and Management
of Vintage Press
Limited after a
painstaking
examination of the
legal and moral issues
arising from the
compensation. 1 Like |
