Chairman of Seplat Oil, Dr. A.B.C. Orjiakor used two phoney companies to<\/div>\n
secure a $150 million loan from the now defunct Diamond Bank, and is now<\/div>\n
using several legal tricks to evade repaying the loan despite several<\/div>\n
court orders, Pointblanknews.com investigations have revealed.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
This comes on the heels of Seplat’s refusal to pay $1.8 billion and<\/div>\n
another N8,825,778,039.61 it owes the Federal Government of Nigeria in<\/div>\n
underpaid assets from its joint venture with Nigerian Petroleum<\/div>\n
Development Company (NPDC).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Seplat is not new to tax evasion and and non-performing loans. In April<\/div>\n
2015, the then Minister of the Economy and Minister of Finance Dr. Ngozi<\/div>\n
Okonjo-Iweala queried the Nigerian Investment Promotion Commission<\/div>\n
(NIPC) for granting dubious tax waivers to Seplat, resulting in the loss<\/div>\n
of over 150 US dollars to the Nigerian government.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Seplat Petroleum, as an oil exploration company, is not eligible for tax<\/div>\n
exemption called pioneer status. However, bribing top NIPC officials,<\/div>\n
Seplat was able to get a tax waiver of over $150 million, which prompted<\/div>\n
the then Finance Minister to raise the query.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
When a major newspaper broke the scandalous story on Seplat’s tax<\/div>\n
evasion, Orjiakor pulled several powerful strings, culminating in the<\/div>\n
firing of the NIPC boss, Ms. Saratu Umar, a week to President Goodluck<\/div>\n
Jonathan handing over to President-elect Muhammadu Buhari.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Curiously, after the story broke, Jonathan’s Minister of Trade and<\/div>\n
Investment, Olusegun Aganga literally turned Seplat’s spokesman,<\/div>\n
addressing a chain of press conferences to exonerate the oil company. He<\/div>\n
even published the text of his press conferences in several national<\/div>\n
newspapers. NIPC sources claimed Seplat heavily compromised the<\/div>\n
minister.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Orjiakor\u2019s $150million loan, sources close to the deal disclosed,<\/div>\n
largely contributed\u00a0 to the liquidation of Diamond Bank, and ultimately,<\/div>\n
to the bankruptcy of it’s founder, Mr. Pascal Dozie.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The loan was secured by a fixed and floating debenture over the assets<\/div>\n
of one of the phoney companies, Cardinal Drilling.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Checks revealed that Cardinal Drilling was unable to service the<\/div>\n
outstanding part of the facility, prompting Access Bank Plc, which<\/div>\n
absorbed all the assets and liabilities of the now defunct Diamond Bank<\/div>\n
Plc, to pursue a recovery of the outstanding of the loan and accrued<\/div>\n
interests<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Pointblanknews.com investigations revealed that in November 2010,<\/div>\n
Orjiakor, using some fronts, registered Cardinal Drilling ostensibly to<\/div>\n
provide drilling services for Seplat Petroleum. He had registered Shebah<\/div>\n
Exploration and Production Company Limited\u00a0 seven years earlier, in<\/div>\n
December 2003.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Orjiakor used Cardinal Drilling and Shebah Exploration, his two special<\/div>\n
purpose vehicles, SPV, to obtain the $150million loan facility from the<\/div>\n
defunct Diamond Bank to purchase Casing Drive System (CDS) Rigs 101,<\/div>\n
201, 202 and 203 models.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Pointblanknews.com further gathered that when Access bank took over<\/div>\n
Diamond Bank, they approached Orjiakor’s fronts – Cardinal and Shebah<\/div>\n
Exploration – to honor the terms of the loan facility agreement and<\/div>\n
repay.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Both parties ended up in the High Court of justice, Queen\u2019s bench<\/div>\n
Division, London. The Supreme Court of the United Kingdom ordered<\/div>\n
Orjiakor, Shebah Exploration and Seplat Oil to pay $144.2million being<\/div>\n
the outstanding and accrued interests on the loan facility granted in<\/div>\n
2011 by Diamond Bank and others.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Orjiakor again went into his play book, refusing to pay. Access Bank<\/div>\n
which had taken over the ownership of Diamond Bank, approached a Federal<\/div>\n
High Court, sitting in Lagos. The Court once again, upheld the same<\/div>\n
judgement of the High and Supreme Courts of the United Kingdom.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
interestingly, Orjiakor is now maintaining that Cardinal Drilling and<\/div>\n
Shebah Exploration are not part of Seplat, relying on the fact that the<\/div>\n
two companies do not have his name or that of Seplat as directors.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Unknown to Orjiakor, Cardinal Drilling on their website -which they have<\/div>\n
since fraudulently disabled – stated they were \u201cmidwifed\u201d by Orjiakor’s<\/div>\n
Seplat.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Prior to the disabling, Cardinal Drilling, in indicating that it was<\/div>\n
mid-wifed by SEPLAT Plc, remarked: \u201cThe above innovative commercial<\/div>\n
arrangement of SEPLAT mid-wifing CARDINAL DRILLING Nigeria Limited<\/div>\n
enabled CARDINAL DRILLING Nigeria funding to be realized as Maurel &<\/div>\n
Prom through CARDINAL DRILLING SAS will contribute 40%.\u201d<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Seplat has also consistently disclosed in both its interim and annual<\/div>\n
reports that Cardinal Drilling is a related party. This is at total<\/div>\n
variance with the oil company’s\u00a0 position elsewhere.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
On it’s indebtedness to the Nigerian government, a federal government<\/div>\n
report\u00a0 recommended that the $1.8 billion and N8.8 billion Seplat owed<\/div>\n
in unpaid royalties be “recovered”. However, this appears a tall order<\/div>\n
as Seplat is known to have prominent members of government on it’s pay<\/div>\n
roll.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
However,\u00a0 joined in the suit filed by Access Bank is Kalu Nwosu, who<\/div>\n
reportedly issued a personal guarantee and a statement of personal net<\/div>\n
worth as security to the facilities availed to SEPLAT.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Access Bank noted that SEPLAT had solely enjoyed all the benefits of the<\/div>\n
facilities granted Cardinal Drilling to its advantage and wholly for the<\/div>\n
promotion and advancement of its businesses.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It described Seplat as the “real debtor” with Cardinal is merely a<\/div>\n
“vehicle smokescreen” for the purposes of the subtle obtainment of<\/div>\n
credit facilities by Seplat.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
According to court documents filed by Access bank, Clause 6 of the Deed<\/div>\n
of Debenture allows it to appoint a Receiver\/Manager over Cardinal\u2019s<\/div>\n
assets should Cardinal fail to liquidate the facility. On 12th October<\/div>\n
2020, Access Bank appointed Kunle Ogunba & Associates to act as the<\/div>\n
Receiver\/Manager.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Access Bank asked the Court to validate the appointment of Kunle Ogunba<\/div>\n
& Associates as the Receiver\/Manager; validate the Receiver\/Manager\u2019s<\/div>\n
authority to take possession of Cardinal four rigs and other assets of<\/div>\n
persons and companies presumably connected to Cardinal drilling.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
It also prayed the court to restrain all defendants from disposing or<\/div>\n
dealing with the assets, and declare that the defendants have no right<\/div>\n
to enter into, or deal with any of the assets.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
