PAI Group owned by Ike Ejizu paid N16 billion for 95 per cent of the equity interest to acquire Ascot.

Under the terms of the deal, he said the group would also take over the non-statutory liabilities of Ascot while AMCON would shoulder the company’s statutory liabilities amounting to some N6 billion.

“Ascot has a tax liability of N6 billion, of which AMCON will pay N3 billion to the Federal Inland Revenue Service (FIRS) while the balance will be paid to other agencies of government that Ascot owes,” he said.

He said with the sale of the firm, its new owners would be able to revitalise its massive fabrication yard in Port Harcourt, the Rivers State capital, and provide jobs for thousands of Nigerians.

Although efforts by THISDAY to reach Ejizu were not successful, industry sources conversant with the transaction disclosed that the Ascot acquisition could prove to be very lucrative for PAI and its partners.

THISDAY learnt that Ejizu, who holds controlling interest in PAI, also doubles as the Country Director/agent of Samsung Heavy Industries, which was awarded the $3.3 billion contract for the Egina deepwater oil field operated by France’s Total.

Industry sources confirmed that the Ascot fabrication yard in Port Harcourt has been certified by Total for the local fabrication of the Floating Production Storage Offloading (FPSO) vessel that will service the oil multinational’s Egina field.

Ascot Offshore, an energy services firm once led by Mr. Henry Imasekha, came into prominence in 2007 after its $155.25 million acquisition of Willbros Group Nigeria Holdings from its US parent, Willbros Group.

Willbros was forced to withdraw from Nigeria, following its indictment alongside Halliburton and others by the US Justice Department and US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) for bribing Nigerian officials to obtain and retain $387 million in Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas (NLNG) contracts.

In May 2008, Willbros was fined $32 million in combined penalties, disgorgement and pre-judgment interest by the US SEC and Justice Department on allegations relating to its operations in Nigeria, Ecuador and Bolivia.

However, after Willbros was taken over by Imasekha’s Ascot, it borrowed heavily from the defunct Intercontinental Bank Plc in order to complete the West African Gas Pipeline contract that had been awarded by Chevron Nigeria Limited to Willbros before its departure from Nigeria.

Ascot’s ability to deliver the project was however hampered following a disagreement with Chevron on the execution of the gas pipeline contract from Escravos to Benin Republic, which resulted in the former defaulting on its loan obligations to Intercontinental Bank.

Owing to its inability to repay Intercontinental Bank, AMCON took over the firm and has managed Ascot’s operations until it was sold to PAI.

Global motor assembling plant Lakki
LAGOS—Globe Motors, a leading auto mobile dealer in the country is set to boost Federal Government’s automotive policy from July when it rolls out first set of vehicles from its $150 million assembly plant in Lagos next month.

Chairman of Globe Motors Holdings, Mr. William Anumudu, who disclosed this in Lagos, yesterday, said the company was putting finishing touches to its assembly plant located at Lekki area, adding that the plant had a capacity for 40,000 cars on completion and would generate employment for 3,500 Nigerians. However, the plant will produce about 6,000 vehicles annually for a start, including passenger cars, pick-ups, high capacity buses and trucks. Anumudu added that another 10,000 jobs would be created indirectly as a result of the multiplier effect of the plant. According to him, the company will start with the production of Semi Knockdown parts, SKD, and later graduate to complete knock down parts, CKD, for Hyundai, Higer and Globe Motors brands. He further explained that the company would be assembling three brands of automobiles, including Hyundai (Korea), Higer (China) and its own brand, adding that the company had signed agreements with the Original Equipment Manufacturers, OEM, of these brands to produce the vehicles to global standards. Commending the government for coming up with a policy for the auto industry, Mr. Anumudu said: “We have made a lot of progress in the new plant. We keyed into the government auto policy, though we were hesitant at the beginning, but we have realized it is the way to the nation’s economic development.”

igbos dominate in trading while afonja dominate in rendering of services e.g mechanics(due to their ogun deity), carpentry, drivers, barbing/hairdressing, bricklaying, architect, tailoring. They dominate west, north, s/s and part of s/e. I know this cos i travel around.

@ raker 300
you are very correct when you mention wholesale cos igbos dominate the shipping business no afonja can argue/debate on that. Making use of those products in the form of services rendered is left for the afonja. e.g computer village who dominates the repair and servicing of gadgets - afonja, ladipo market - ask the traders(igbo) they will tell us afonja leads in service and repair. carpentry is left to them cos only s/s and s/w have the biggest wood market in Nigeria unfortunately s/s failed to develop their manpower
Re: Igbos Most Industrious, Innovative and Richest Tribe In Africa see proof by vonxe: 10:55am On Aug 06, 2017
@raker 300
mechanic, driving and other metal work is being dominated by afonja before the colonial master, Hausas came to trade for metal object in yoruba land. afonja believes any metal work is associated with ogun (their god of iron). they derive so much passion in it, this has shifted to generator repair. owerri is an example.
Re: Igbos Most Industrious, Innovative and Richest Tribe In Africa see proof by vonxe: 11:09am On Aug 06, 2017
unfortunately their crude way of life, partying, womanizing and extended family life make it seems they dont live well/poor. i was speaking to an afonja driver in owerri he told he makes 10-12k per day!, only few graduates màkes that, talkless of lagos drivers. truth be told 80% of services being rendered in north is through an afonja. 99.9% in s/w
