ABUJA — For the first time since the sale of Aluminium Smelter Company of Nigeria, ALSCON, was marred by controversy, the United States Government has openly declared its interest in the matter, saying it wants the Nigerian Government to hand over the aluminium plant to the American company, BFI Group Divino Corporation, which won the bid to purchase the firm since 2004.

The Bureau of Public Enterprises, BPE, indicated last week that it was ready to allow BFI Group to move into the plant after the RUSAL might have named the amount of compensation to be paid to it following a Supreme Court order that the firm should vacate the plant immediately.

However, as the government continues to delay the handing over of ALSCON to BFI Group, the American Government has said it wanted the matter sorted out once and for all in the interest of the two countries.

A letter by the US Ambassador to Nigeria, Terrence McCulley, to Vice President Namadi Sambo, who heads the National Privatisation Council of Nigeria, recalled the processes, which the American firm had painfully gone through to emerge as the preferred winner of the bid but was not allowed to complete the purchase.

The ambassador also drew Sambo’s attention to the meeting between the BFI Group and American Charge d’ Affaires, Lisa Piascik, and late President Shehu Yar’Adua on the matter in November 2007 and how the former President promised to review and resolve the matter.

The envoy noted in the letter, which Vanguard sighted last night, that it was intriguing that more than five years after the meeting, the matter was still not resolved.

He made it clear that even with the passage of time, the American firm was ready with the needed resources and technical facilities to undertake the rehabilitation of ALSCON as well as the dredging of Imo River as contained in the Shares Purchase Agreement, SPA.

The ambassador also declared that the firm was prepared to commit between $180 million to $200 million towards the dredging of the river and had secured the services of Port of Los Angeles, one of America’s busiest ports, to do the job without delay.

Vanguard learnt last night that the American government was even ready to guarantee more support and funding for the BFI group following the resolution Nigerian Supreme Court ruling giving the ownership of ALSCON to the firm.

A source said, yesterday, that a delegation from the US would soon arrive Nigeria in preparation for the formal handing over of ALSSON to BFI Group, as ordered by the apex court.

The management of RUSAL, which is yet to vacate the Akwa Ibom State-based plant, declined to comment on their exit date, when contacted last night.

[size=8pt]Her struggle of lesbianism started when she was in Primary One.......but God healed her. Ayo breaks her silence and shares her testimony. It is now more apparent to me that people can get free from any addiction. Read her story. God bless you.......

“My story is one of evil communication corrupting good manners. I can’t recall how old I was but I think I was in primary 1. We were a group six of friends in the school – Taye, Ireti, Bola, Pauline, Oro and I. Taye, I recall, was always good at narrating movies she saw, which almost all were erotic. When she narrated them to a point, she would tell us she wants to demonstrate it. Bola, who was closest to me, would bluntly refuse to be used for the demonstration and because of this, I would also refuse. Then, any of the other girls, especially Pauline, would always volunteer to be used by Taye.

I refused because of Bola, my closest friend but my heart was longing for an opportunity when Bola won’t be around so that I could have a go. After school hours, I constantly meditated on Taye’s stories. They were fascinating.

Later, I made a friend in the church we attended with my grandmother. Her name was Ayomikun. With her, I finally had my chance to try what I had seen my friends do and what I had been meditating on. As little as we were, no one could ever suspect us. We were two innocent looking little girls. We would climb to the upper part of the church, where no one would see us, and there, do our thing.

It became so serious that when I have a close contact with a girl and no one was watching, the urge would come and since I was always in the custody of big cousin’s little kids, I would drag them close to myself and defile them. All this was happening even before I clocked nine years of age. Even Bola, my friend had an elder sister, Justina, who would touch me when no one would notice.

All this continued till I finished primary school and my Dad relocated the family to Port Harcourt and I was enrolled in an all-girls secondary school as a boarder. Here, I had two friends – Peace and Ijeoma. I was now 11 years old. We started out as normal friends but soon, we got close, and very close, after school hours, we would look for the remotest classroom and have what we thought was pleasure. Sometimes during school hours, I would leave my class and go to Ij’s class as I could no longer control myself.

I left the hostel in my JSS 2. My dad relocated to Abuja and we stayed with my mother. At home, since there was no sin partner around, I would do it with anything that had an edge. I started feeling useless, because I now saw the state to which this evil had reduced me to. I could not stay alone without looking for something to lean on to achieve satisfaction. My thoughts were constantly pre-occupied with this evil. In 2003, I gave my life to Christ, joined the choir but my habit continued. I had a fervent prayer life, I studied my Bible but still, I continued in this habit. Sometimes, after praying, I would lean on the edge of my bed and attain satisfaction and when I’m done, I would start crying and asking for mercy. It was a shameful secret. I was tired. My mother saw me as her ‘believer daughter,’ how can I tell her that this was my struggle. I couldn’t bear the shame and her disappointment. I decided to endure my cross.

One day, I was washing dishes, and the thought of a way out has so clouded my mind that I started crying. I couldn’t bear the cross any longer. I called my mother and sister, and with tears rolling down my cheeks, I told them the story of my secret lifestyle. On that same day, Pastor W. F Kumuyi was ministering at a crusade at Rivers State University of Science and Technology (RSUST). We attended and I prayed there, and amazingly, God gave me peace of mind. I also attended some special prayer sessions, but my real deliverance started when I made a choice to say it’s enough and opened up. I became completely free and I am most grateful to God. This is my testimony.” Ayo.

There is joy in heaven over one sinner who gets free.

I call him "JEHOVAH"
