Western Metal Products Company (WEMPCO) Group, owners of Lagos Oriental Hotel, has denied insinuations in some quarters that it is owned by the national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

In a statement by Taiwo Alli, Executive Director Corporate Affairs, Wempco Group the hotel’s management said:

“Western Metal Products Company (WEMPCO) Group, owners of Lagos Oriental Hotel, formally acknowledges that there was an attack on our property on October 20, 2020, when hoodlums armed with guns, knives and bottles, forcefully gained entrance to our facility, assaulted some of our security personnel and damaged properties.

“Unidentified individuals whose motives remain unknown to us have gone to town with a rather unfortunate narrative claiming that the Lagos Oriental Hotel is the investment of politicians, thereby exposing it to unwarranted attacks.

“Lagos Oriental Hotel is owned by the WEMPCO Group with 99percent shareholding. The WEMPCO Group of Companies was founded by businessman and entrepreneur Mr. K.F. Tung over fifty (50) years ago.

“The Lagos Oriental Hotel is a flagship in the Nigerian hospitality business but is not a flagship of the WEMPCO Group. It is an investment made by the Group in 2008, but not part of their core manufacturing business.

“At present, WEMPCO Group provides jobs for over 25,000 young Nigerians, affording them the opportunity to earn a living and gain useful experience. It is therefore unfortunate the attempt to disrupt our business and tarnish our image painstakingly built over the years.

“Speaking on the development, the Managing Director, Mr. Lawrence Tung noted that ‘like other responsible businesses operating in Nigeria, Lagos Oriental Hotel is hopeful that closure will be brought to cases of injustice identified in the country. It is however important to protect our businesses from unwarranted attacks by individuals who may not be aware of the facts around our existence.

‘We are fully cooperating with the authorities in their investigations into the remote and immediate causes of the incident that occurred on 20, October 2020 and assure our numerous clients and partners that we are working to ensure that normalcy returns to the hotel.”

Why is Tinubu alone being targeted? This is something I can't understand. He doesn't control the police or the Army, why him alone!
The president of Nigeria has nothing to say despite all the violence going on.
It is time for this country to peacefully end.

Lagos has been under his iron grip for 20 years without meaningful development

Tinubu is Lagos. The state has been under his iron grip for 20 years without meaningful development.
Many of us experienced what good governance was in 4yrs of UPN in second Republic. They built schools(not renovation) with free tuition to university level,built hospitals, roads, housing estates for the masses,and employed teachers,doctors etcl with lesser allocations and internally generated revenue.4years of Jakande can not be compared with 20yrs of Tinubu

Lasu is the most expensive public university in Nigeria today,a school established by Jakande to provide education for the poor.a good number of medical doctors in Lagos are contract staffs.

He decides who gets what in Lagos and exhibit so much arrogance as if he is God.

I am not PDP or a politician because I don't believe in western styled democracy for any developing nation
