Shell, GEJ, Etc Linked To One Of The Biggest Oil Corruption Scandal In History by sharpman1(m): 5:22am On Apr 12, 2017 |
A report on foreignpolicy.com by Robbie Gramer has linked the former president of Nigeria, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan to one of the biggest oil corruption scandals in history. See his tweets below. Leaked records show Shell's complicity in one of the biggest oil corruption scandals in history. Shell denied any complicity/role in $1billion of Nigerian public funds disappearing. New leaked docs prove otherwise. One leaked email from Shell employee: “Etete can smell the money...I think he knows its his for the taking. One Nigerian businessman, Aliyu Abubakar, withdrew $54,418,000 in cash after Shell/Eni deal on oil field was struck. According to Milan prosecutors office, another $466,065,965.44 was withdrawn in cash -- IN CASH -- after Shell/Eni Nigerian oil deal struck. That money was then divvied up in personal accounts of Nigerian pres Goodluck Jonathan, the attorney general, petroleum & defense ministers. This is one of, if not the,biggest corruption scandals in oil industry's history. Shell denied any role, but new leaked emails prove otherwise. http://foreignpolicy.com/2017/04/11/emails-show-shells-complicity-in-biggest-oil-corruption-scandal-in-history-nigeria-resource-curse-etete-eni/

Ha! Mr Jona, so you are the biggest thief in history. With the type of govt run in Nigeria, why should such huge money be withdrawn by some cabals unnoticed? Many questions begging for answers. 3 Likes |

This particular scandal goes back to the Abacha days, when Dan Etete was petroleum minister, at a time most the above posters were probably not born. Jonathan was probably still in the university by then. To now attempt to Link it to Jonathan is nothing but calculated mischief . And to correct the OP, it is Buhari who is linked to the biggest oil scandal in Nigerian history,$2b in 1978 $. 5 Likes 1 Share |

sharpman1:The problem with most of you is that reading and comprehension are your basic problems. Read the British Newspaper article again. This time, try to remember all the reading and comprehension skills you were taught in school. 1. Dan Etete , through his Malibu Oil, Acquired the said oil block when he was petroleum minister under Abacha. How is GEJ responsible for that ? 2. Fastforwad to 2011, Shell wants to buy the said oil block from Etete's Malibu Oil in a PRIVATE, Legitimate business transaction. How does that concern GEJ? 3. Internal BP emails show that top brass discussed and expressed concern about Dan Etete's past as a convict and that he MIGHT use part of the sale proceeds for political settlements or bribes of government officials THAT MIGHT INCLUDE the then president GEJ. This is nothing but an innocent gossip, a CONJECTURE based on innuendo. 4. BP reiterates that non of its staff bribed or committed any wrongdoing regarding the Malibu deal, nor are they aware that any Nigerian government officials were bribed. Again, how did GEJ's do any wrong ? 1 Like 1 Share |

plaetton: Unfortunately, you are actually the one that needs to take comprehension lessons. Here are some quotes from the bbc article: 'Shell also had good reason to suspect that hundreds of millions would end up in the pockets of Nigerian politicians including the former President Goodluck Jonathan.' 'In an email from July, the same Shell employee says Etete's negotiating strategy is "clearly an attempt to deliver significant revenues to GLJ [Goodluck Jonathan] as part of any transaction." ' 'Italian prosecutors allege that $466m were laundered through a network of Nigerian bureaux de change to facilitate payments to President Jonathan and other politicians. ' How does these statements amount to 'an innocent gossip, a CONJECTURE based on innuendo' according to you. Now take note: 'OPL 245 is an oilfield off the coast of Nigeria whose estimated nine billion barrels of oil are worth nearly half a trillion dollars at today's prices. Shell has been active in Nigeria for nearly 60 years and was keen to acquire the field. ' An oil field valued at about $500b but was acquired by paying the NIGERIAN GOVERNMENT (headed by who??) $1.3b in 2011......and you claim there were no kick backs?? Innocent gossip?? 'Shell and the Italian oil company ENI eventually acquired OPL 245 in 2011 - by paying $1.3bn to the Nigerian government. ' Guy, you need serious comprehension lessons. 1 Like |
