BUA SUGAR REFINERY LATEST: TRADE & INDUSTRIES MINISTER ADEBAYO REVERSES EARLIER DIRECTIVE ON SUGAR IMPORTATION FROM FREE TRADE ZONES INTO NIGERIA
Days after, sending out an earlier letter to the Minister of Finance, Zainab Ahmed prohibiting the importation of sugar from free trade zones, in Nigeria, the Minister of Trade Industries and Investment, Adeniyi Adebayo has backtracked and reversed himself.
Adebayo, acting on a controversial petition written to him by the Chairman Dangote Industries Limited, Aliko Dangote and Chairman, Flour Mills of Nigeria PLC, Mr John Coumatros had written a letter which he copied the Managing  Director Nigeria Ports Authority, Comptroller General of Nigeria Customs Service as well as the Secretary to the Government of the Federation prohibiting the importation of sugar from the country’s Free Trade Zones. This move was targeted at BUA sugar refinery as well as investments.
Recall that BUA Group Chairman, Samad Rabiu had reacted to the petition by revealing that his investments in sugar, especially the Port Harcourt project did not pose any threat to the country’s sugar policy. According to Samad Rabiu, his was project indeed, meant to checkmate arbitrary increase in prices and which will ultimately benefit the ordinary Nigerian on the street.
Curiously, some agencies of the Federal Government especially  the NPA, had acted on the Minister’s directive by directing all Terminal  operators to ensure strict compliance with the Minister’s order, despite a court injunction refraining not only the Ministry but all government agencies from disturbing it’s operations pending the determination of a suit filed by BUA group.
The move to disrupt BUA’s activities depsite the injunction clearly embarrassed the government, hence Adebayo’s quick reversal of his earlier stance and letter to the Finance Minister directing that the action be stopped.
As for Hadiza Bala Usman who was in a hurry to overlook the court order, she has since been suspended from office as the Managing Director of the Nigeria Ports Authority while an Acting CEO has been appointed in person of Mohammed Koko, the erstwhile Executive Director, Finance and Administration.

A lie repeated a thousand times becomes truth. This is why right of reply is important to set the record straight. Recently, it appears that there’s a coordinated effort to damage the reputation of Alhaji Ibrahim Egungbohun, better known as IBD Dende in the print media. From story of his fake arrest in Dubai to another tissue of lie branded investigative journalism – where the fake news merchant tried unsuccessfully to pin a non-existent rice and gun smuggling crimes on the high-flying businessman. Like every other media attack, the latest onslaught is dead on arrival. A clear conscience fears no accusation. However, for public accountability, let’s set the record straight. And demystify the tissue of lie circulating in the media about Alhaji Dende’s business activities.

Who is Alhaji Ibrahim Egungbohun aka IBD Dende and what does he do for a living?

Alhaji Ibrahim Egungbohun aka IBD Dende, a native of Ebute-Igbooro in the Yewa axis of Ogun State is a successful businessman who plays big in the Nigerian business community. Like every success story, IBD started from the bottom, served under people’s tutelage and learned the rope for many years before his dawn of grace. Since he started out with clearing and forwarding, his entrepreneurial footprint has extended through Hospitality, Quarry&Mining to Automobile sale and Real Estate. Under his guidance, the business empire has grown to become one of Nigeria’s fastest growing privately-owned company with subsidiaries including IBD-Impex, the hospitality arm of the group. Under the subsidiary, IBD-Impex – the IBD Hotels owned by the group has certainly grown to becoming a leading brand in the hospitality industry in Ogun State. From its operational base both in Ilaro and Abeokuta, the capital of Ogun State, IBD Hotels leads the pack when it comes to the highest quality of hospitality service. Aside from boosting the local economy via massive employment, IBD Dende business interests mostly located in Yewa land provide significant support for communities in Yewa land. Better known for his resilience and commendable work ethics, IBD Dende has been relentless in his pursuit of excellence. Through his positive attitude to life and unwavering commitment to business expansion, he has equally succeed in other businesses including Real Estate and Quarry and Mining.

He is not your regular run-of-the-mill car dealers by the road side. His Apapa car port boasts hundreds of luxury automobiles fit only for the rich and affluent.

For IBD Dende, it has been a story of upwards and onwards. Certainly his meterioc rise has caught the attention of his detractors. They’re obviously worried about his rising profile and for whatever reasons best known to them – they’re employing every trick in the book to bring down. He’s even alleged to be nursing a governorship ambition come 2027. Baseless. IBD Dende is blessed. And everything he possesses, he earned by sweat. The compassionate businessman, IBD Dende, makes his wealth work for humanity. IBD Dende, a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruits in season and whose leaf does not wither has done a lot in the area of service to humanity.
