some youths need to grow up.... I wonder how politics relate with a personal debt. Some people are just here, making illicit comments, using unnecessary distractions to gain prominence. If Common sense is very common, some still will not have it.

The takeover is as a result of the N11bn he's owning AMCON.

Is this necessary though?

I see EFCC and Co doing in often. Can't they think up better ways of sealing a property without defacing the property?

If they lose the case in court, who will pay for the removal of that rubbish from the wall? angry






DO we train these agencies and their agents at all?

Na so Police stop me jump enter inside my Car. I asked him if he realised he was trespassing private property without a warrant nor extenuating conditions and he was just looking at me in shock. angry

This is barbaric.

We will go to GENESIS CINEMA pending the time they hand it over to a new management.


The said loan was purchased by AMCON in 2011 after the capital base of Union Bank was terribly shaky and the common sense senator has persistently failed to pay the loans and yet has been pretending to be concerned with the welfare of Nigerians whom he has been skinning alive in order to remain relevant and live like a king,” Adegoke said with barely disguised glee.

Realizing that the Senator was not ready to pay back the money, AMCON appointed a receiver/manager to recover the loan. While the agents of the receiver, officials of AMCON and large contingents of armed police officers were seen sealing up the premises of Silverbird Group of Companies in Lagos, Abuja, and Port Harcourt, the staff of the companies were lamenting the failure of their principal to meet his obligations. All efforts to reach the senator proved abortive, as calls to his mobile phones were “being forwarded to another number”.

Let me explain in lay man term.

Ben borrowed 11Billion from Union Bank. He refuse to pay as agreed.

In 2011, AMCON bought over the loan so UNION BANK will not collapse due to BAD Loan.

You did not ask me where AMCON got that money from ? YES from NIGERIA (YOUR MONEY AND MY OWN)

From 2011 - 2016, BEN refused to pay.

They went to court and siezed the property. The judgement Number is there.

Don't be like BEN. BEN knows theory of ECONOMICS but can not Manage 11 BILLION NAIRA LOAN


- My Name is Dammytosh. I don't Believe a thief or Loan defaulter was witch hunted.

They might enjoy illegal protection they dnt enjoy any more but it is not a witch hunt.

I just want to make CONman sorry COMMON sense.

I am not a FLAT head that will ask stupeed questions like ; Are they the only thief ?.

In One Voice We Screaaaaaaamm !!!

WHERE IS OUR 11 Billion Naira ?

And Jimoh Ibrahim is from South south too? AMCON is currently doing housecleaning operations. Take it or leave it.

We are not going to any military Era, we are only seeing sanity been brought to d system. Hw can u borrow 11billion from bank between 2005 n 2007 n refuse to pay. Wen AMCON saw dat he isn't paying n it was putting they bank in a bad shape, they paid d loan to d bank in 2011 n he was nao suppose to pay back to dem since den bt because na him person dey dia, he just looked d oda way since 2009 n nao dat every agency don wake up they approached d court to take over the properties for which he took d loan.

can't u learn? AMCON already took over Union bank to save it from liquidation and Ben murray Bruce being at debtor to union bank has neither paid back nor serviced his loan. hence, taking over his properties is within the armbit of the law.

Rotfl...ignorance
Amcon took over the debt...not union bank

Amcon has paid union bank the 11bn now they're going after silverbird to recover their 11bn back...that is how amcon works.

It's is ur gej who created amcon o... or have u forgotten how everyone thought banks were very healthy under soludo only for sanusi to order stress-audits and just like Hollywood film we saw that banks were declaring paper profits and 0 real life profits? Then we saw that banks were giving out billions without collateral? That is the genesis of AMCON.

Collecting what belongs to you is now a corruption fight abi? Continue. Every rich business man in this country supports their businesses with loan. And that's not a bad thing. But it becomes bad when you refuse to service the loan. If AMCON didn't step in, do you know union bank might be in serious financial trouble by now?

Service your loans and their won't be any problem. Do you know they have been on this case since 2011? Was Buhari in power by then? Get your facts right before you make your points please. It'll save your brain from a whole lot of trouble.

We will not touch anybody that did not touch public funds. If you behave yourself, you'll sleep soundly, your families will enjoy respect,But if you have short-changed the treasury, you will be caught and you’ll have your day in court.

Mr Ben Bruce,you have touched Public funds,so you have to face the consequence of your action,Pay your loan to be a free man or have your company seize forever.

There is a difference between a loan being serviced and a bad debt. Amcon goes after the bad debts.

Oga, please understand, AMCON did not take over Union Bank. AMCON only bought the loans from the several banks that had bad loans at a discount and paid those the banks. The Loans now belong to AMCON that is why they are out to recover their money.

Please understand.....

I sympathize with you. You do not understand what is going on around you, but you must talk, hence you pitch sides with the most simplistic side.

Here is what is going on:
1. Mr Ben Murray Bruce borrow money for bank. He use his companies as collateral. The loan is up to 10 Billion naira.
2. Mr common sense defaulted (i. e he did not pay back)
3. Government is taking over the collateral.
Nothing about military era. The people who will suffer the bad loan are the masses. Mr Bruce will not feel the pain one bit. Imagine UBA or Union bank closes because they cannot operate anymore. Imagine the number of poor Nigerians whose money will be gone. Will you prefer this happens or Mr Bruce pays his debt?
The government has done nothing wrong. If Mr. Bruce repays the loan tomorrow, it will be illegal for AMCON to still hold the building.
Write it in yoruba for him d grammar is too much for him to understand grin grin grin

It's not by force to be FTC. It's appropriate to make it require the co-operation of hand and brain simultaneously. His case dates back to a period before the advent of Buhari to the power centre. So asking a debtor to pay back his debt is also a form of witch-hunting right? Wetin person ear no go hear for this country sef?

once you are not a supporter of this government you will be witch hunted whether through legal on non legal means.
Nigeria has been"changed"back to military era where supporters are compensated while the opposition are foods for the EFCC yet some people approves it just to win their arguments of being in a particular political party.let's be patriotic and leave tribal and partisan affiliations to our ancestors cos that's why Nigeria is still where it is today
I support fighting corruption and anything that is against the law but it mustn't be on a selected few,I personally don't like any political party in this country as they are all full of greedy opportunist but what is been done to opposition now is very appalling.
if you support marginalized method of fighting corruption it might be your turn tomorrow
bro i get where u are going but n0t to go fr0m topic, murray bruce (whom i admire) isn't penalised based on c0rrupti0n. No allegati0n has been laid against him. The man is owing a loan and u kn0w how these banks stuff works, he traded his c0mpanies for those loans and thats what the banks are doing. Collecting the debt. N0thing m0re n0thing less. It happens in other countries. In this very case, this isn't a witch-hunt.
#OFF TOPIC: Though i agree that this Buhari corrupti0n stance is one sided. I haven't seen any APC guy caught like Yahaya bello here in my state. Well i hope when an0ther party c0mes to the thr0ne, it'll catch the once immuned group.
