on Thursday Ben Murray-Bruce after the politician’s
businesses failed to settle about N11 billion credit they obtained from Union
Bank.
Silverbird Group’s
outlets across the country were sealed on Thursday morning after AMCON secured
a takeover authorisation from a Nigerian court.
Mr. Adegoke said the
development had betrayed the tenets of “common sense”, a major rallying cry of
Mr. Murray-Bruce in recent months, adding that the media mogul had been using
his businesses to exploit unsuspecting Nigerians.
“It must be borne in
mind that innocent depositors’ money is what the Commonsense propagator and his
brothers have been living large and feeding fat upon without recourse to the
interest of the real labourers who own the money,” he said.
“The said loan was
purchased by AMCON in 2011 after the capital base of Union Bank was terribly
shaky,” Mr. Adegoke continued.
“And the Commonsense
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.”
Mr. Murray-Bruce,
who’s also a senator from Bayelsa State, has courted public attention lately
with his distribution of video clips in which he could be seen proffering
solutions to what he believed were the nation’s most critical challenges.
The populism messages,
which he usually disseminates through his various media channels, have earned
him both praises and derision from Nigerians home and away.
This man has used
common sense to skin Nigerians alive, this is real common sense.
