CyerSeries:I never defended anybody in my writeup. I was only attempting to expose the severe foolishness of those alleging foul play and political witch-hunt in the Silverbird issue. What has politics got to do between an issue of a bad loan between a businessman and his bank? Meanwhile there is nothing to defend in Dangote, he is a businessman and like every other businessman, he expands his companies using loans and there is nothing wrong in that as long as you service your loans regularly. Even the Bruces who had their businesses taken over did not allege any form of witch-hunt, Ben clearly stated that this is a minor setback which would be sorted in no time; but how some human brains automatic link an issue between a man and his bank to Buhari beats my imagination. |

BUT Bruce brothers signed the court order for AMCON to take over and people are still shouting WITCH HUNT...They should have objected if its truly a witch hunt....... You criticize buhari you say he is witch hunting opposition but PDP was on power between 1999-2015...Now if the fight against corruption is to start wont it be against the party that just left power...when APC too leaves let PDP too witch hunt them.......but some people owed 11bn....NIGERIA money and are walking free some people are owing less than 50k and are in police custody.....AMCON takes over their property and you say its witch hunting......LORD HAVE MERCY |

Firstly, AMCON, not Buhari seized silverbird. Secondly, Dangote is more useful to Nigeria than these folks; How many Nigerians are employed by these folks, do they have firms in all states of the federation? and to whom is the debt owed?. You are the one whose analysis is lopsided, you lack critical analysis. and I am sure this is the kind of news most Nigerians wanna hear. If Jonathan had done this, my brothers from the South will hail him. |

OLADD:We all have brains in our heads and it is imperative that we at least use it to navigate our left from the right. If you think there is nothing wrong with the reasoning of those alleging witch-hunt in this clear case of 'businessman vs bank,' why did you not also join the bandwagon of those claiming Buhari is responsible for this? |

7Alexander: Let me put in perspective for you, I'm saying the very government that is ordering banks not to fire people, the very government that has been unable to do a single thing, citing economic downturn is expecting a private business not to also feel the heat of the economy and owe. OK. Government that has free oil flowing from Niger Delta plus loans from all over the globe is owing and failing in many responsibilities, yet BEN BRUCE, an INVESTOR and ENTREPRENEUR that should be valued and caressed like a lover. A Ben Bruce who is keeping 1000 people and their family members, from starvation; a Ben Bruce that does not owe gate man a penny is the one the Federal Government feels they should sacrifice on the altar of politics. Governments are giving bailout to businesses, but Ben Bruce must pay his debts even with the country in recession. I no blame anybody Name any business name you knew in the 70's that is still alive till now. Is it Leventis? Kingsway? Lennards? Bata? Silverbird is growing since the seventies and who is that that dares to question LEGACY? 3 Likes |

bluaero: Pls receive sense...could dasukigate be in anyway traced to any APC member..most of those PDP accused are either involve in dasukigate or madueke fund which I'm very sure cannot be traced to any APC member..if u claim amaechi and others made away with their respective state funds and so they need to be charged for that.Is there any PDP gov or ex-gov presently bin charged for diverting state fund.. |
Re: Ben Bruce, Dangote, AMCON and the Buhari Factor by mayoor15(m): 7:42pm On Jun 24, 2016 |
I think no one has to define your life.....APC isn't responsible for NIGERIAN youths failure.....Any youth that has failed is down to his own short comings....like my pastor will say your background and economic situation has no right to relegate you to the background...... |

knightsTempler:I Permit me please to ask you if you ever or your siblings ever had a stake in Union Bank? I guess the answer is no. Then you would not understand what that bad loans has done to lives of so many that had stakes in Union bank. You would never have been justifying (unserviced bad loan) ordinary showbiz to lives that have been maimed destroyed devastated and crumbled. |

obailala: Same old delusioned illetrate Nigerian youth. Take youself out of the Buhari, politics and shit. Think about it....what do Nigerian need now? Small businesses ......right? So why the fu**ck will any sensible goverment close one single private firm in Nigeria at the present climate? Yes, he is owing (nobody know the details and again loan and business work hard in hand) but that doesn't mean closing it up especially not at this moment. We need all the indigenous business to stay open no matter what. Foreign companies are running away because of forex saga, i don't give a shi..t about AMCON or your senseless rambling, the victims here are the workers who will loose thier source of livelihood. 1 Like |

knightsTempler:Some questions for you; 1. what does this case have to do with politics or Buhari biko? 2. Are you suggesting that bank debtors shouldn't pay their debts any more because they employ plenty people? 3. Or are you suggesting that the FG bails out the private business? Bailing out a private business isn't a bad idea especially when it employs a lot of people, but are you aware that AMCON initially buying over this bad debt from Union bank is already a case of FG bailing out the business?... how many times should government bailout a single private business?... Meanwhile FYI, that the business was possessed by AMCON does not mean the business has been closed and workers sacked. The business is still functional as we speak nobody gets to lose his/her job. 1 Like |

bluaero: Fine he might have willingly surrender and return his loot..remember the reason given for not publishing looters names was that some willingly refund and they might not know the source of the money which I'm sure some PDP member will be part of..those being embarrassed are the ones forming van dam claiming they will not refund.. |

You have addressed all the issues quite maturely and succinctly. Just say no more.

Harwoyeez: Amen. I have chosen to stop reading the myopic views on Nairaland. Of a truth, the quality of the thoughts of some Nairalanders has diminished the value of the Forum . It's like Seun or Lala or someone opened the doors to a set of degraded minds. It's a shame. The thought alone is disheartening. 2 Likes |

Why always the opposition. |

Zoharariel: Why can't you be objective? There is no big business in this world that does not owe @ a particular time. Even Nigeria with all the Niger Delta's oil still owes and even Kemi is saying she borrowed to pay this month's salary so what is bad in taking Loans. Like the OP without common sense, in the spite to reduce the supporters of Bruce, he also has committed the same sin of defending Dangote just like the supporters of Bruce are defending him. |
