ppogba: They wanted to pull a Mangal on Austin but they lack the depth. There are some financial scandals in Seplat which if blown open, ABC Orjiakor would have been jailed in the UK and Nigeria. Some of of them might have been mentioned in Austin's book. Orjiakor wants to run the company like a village trader's shop but Austin is the bone in his neck. Remember that Seplat for the approval of Buhari for the acquisition of Mobil assets. However, the NNPC and regulators opposed the deal and that's how everything scattered. Many sound professionals are leaving Seplat and moving on. Orjiakor wants Austin to move on but Austin has refused. Austin has another oil company but he's still showing Orjiakor that he's not SS guy. One more thing. Many SE politicians are backing him while the SS political figures are backing Austin. If Obi had won this election, Orjiakor would have been home and dry. The way things are going, Orjiakor will lose out in the powerplay. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

NapoleonHill: Technically, yes. Though they are not considered foreign where I worked with them. Aside, most of Seplat Energy's business is not Nigerian, so I'd wonder what "foreign" shareholders would say. https://m.marketscreener.com/quote/stock/SEPLAT-ENERGY-PLC-16256802/company/

MadarasBlade: That's what he calls himself but it's a lie, He is a Co-founder. Seplat was founded by ABC Orjiakor of Sheba Petroleum, Austin Avuru of Platform Petroleum. Later on, some foreign investors bought 45% of the company. Roger Brown is the MD. He was brought in to give the company an oyinbo face especially as the company is listed on the London Stock Exchange. 4 Likes 2 Shares |

HardMirror: I am not arguing, I am educating, with evidence and facts. And not only the person I might be responding to it but anyone else who learns from my post as I do from many. I will always try to raise "the person" up to my intellectual capacity, first, because they might be capable of being at my intellectual capacity and even surmounting me. Second, because I am capable. And third, because I am not here on Nairaland to catch cruise. I catch cruise playing chess instead, as it's more brain tasking than catching cruise here. 4 Likes 2 Shares

MadarasBlade: I suspect you are Igbo, hence you are crying marginalization, etc. Your foolish nsogbu noise won't work in the Corporate world. Just stick to your vegetable hawking. See, let me make you cry more. Just go and start praying that no one remembers that Seplat is also a foreign company and any issue of fraud means British investors have been defrauded. Orjiakor will be jailed for a long time if that happens. He will also lose everything. ABC Orjiakor has several investigations ongoing as to his role in loans by Zenith and Access banks. You can check online if you think I'm lying. He's smart, that's why he is laying low. He even got an injunction against Avuru to prevent that one from releasing his book. 7 Likes 1 Share |

lepashandie:Obviously, you are young Nigeria had once arrested, revoked and deported a very notable figure let alone Mr Brown who is a boardroom exec. That is why I said most of you do not know jack about same country and system you say you want to impose a mediocre person on. Nigeria does it every year but does not make it to the media. If you see the stress and amount companies spend on this you will be shocked. He was probably ill advised to reject the invitation or too full of himself. Read a lot to know more about Nigeria.

I checked online and could find no single link, a lot you don't think and just swallow whatever is being stuffed into your mouth. Did you take even a minute to check online, if you're called to prove his claim, can you? |

OkoAmarashy: From interviews with "businessday" to "thisdaylive". "The Applicants approached the Court over contents of the books by Avuru, which they find offensive and inimical to their interests as shareholders of Seplat Energy Plc." So how does this relate to employing only people from a certain tribe? How did you know the content of the book when no one else has seen it? You're only pushing a narrative because your heart is evil, i have gone through your profile. You're a bigot who has no life outside nairaland. 4 Likes |

You jumped up here to defend Orjiakor because he is from your tribe. God punish your entire lineage. Look here, if you want links to investigations on Orjiakor, I will give you. Both men are fighting for the control of Seplat and one pauper is here talking nonsense. I should have you runt, bottom-feeding dreg of the society. This is my last reply to you.

OkoAmarashy: Yoruba foolish goat who doesn't know that both the founders are both igbos. Avuru is delta igbo from ndokwa while Orjiako is from Anambra.. if you are smart you would have researched about them in the first place instead coming online to spill thrash from your mouth.

OkoAmarashy:So , where is your accusations in this article. You are accusing two igbos of tribalism. Doesn't that make you stupid and foolish. I have people who work in seplat and are at top management position. Stop coming to the internet to lie. Nothing stops avuru from going to the media houses and granting interviews if what you said here is what's going on. You are far from what's going on in seplat.. Focus on Yoruba establishments and leave igbos alone.. 5 Likes |

oilykid: oilykid: You like the other nonentity I shut up are a born fool and I refuse to be dragged to your level. Is there anything like Anambra Igbo or Enugu Igbo? Or Abia Igbo? Why didn't you say Orjiakor is Anambra Igbo? Why must you now call Avuru Delta Igbo? You are deceiving yourself. The entire SS is behind Austin that's why Orjiakor is having sleepless nights. You can insult Yorubas all you like, but no Yoruba man will betray his business partner the way Orjiakor did to a SS man. Roger Brown has gone. The day the UK govt has cause to investigate Seplat, you can also accuse them of tribalism when they jail Orjiakor. 2 Likes |

OkoAmarashy: 1) you said the chairman only employ the igbos, but according to avuru, he said they had diverse tribes working with them. Read the paragraph i marked red. 2) how did orjiakor hate yoruba people so much that they employed them over the years and he wouldn't notice, the hallmark of a business man is focus and concentration, even if he wasnt the Hr, he'd know. 3)let's accept that orjiakor was a tribalist, how does choosing one single igbo man for the job meant that he employs igbos only? Avuru assented to the diverse and multiple ethnicities in their company. Read that paragraph. Avuru was only jealous that he was kicked out of the company, he only wanted to buy public sympathy by pushing the tribal card.
