| Benny Peters |
Prior to the emergence of this present Government of President Muhammadu Buhari, GCFR, Benny Peters was one of those in the corridors of power, who though was doing his own private business, but was a force to reckon with and called shots then. He bestrode the corridors of power quietly like a colossus, he was one of those privileged enough to have gotten the opportunity to buy a lucrative oil well, so just like his own status grew astronomically, his brand AITEO also grew in status and were like a new bride that was getting all the right attention from all the right places and right people.
But alas, not too soon after all the seeming good times, it seems like the bubble might have busted too quickly too! For immediately this current administration came on board and the former Petroleum Resources Minister, Mrs. Dieziani Allison-Madueke quickly took what is seeming like an infinite "leave of absence" from the country that she has yet to come back from (spoke to her legs), a few of her well known close associates too, also seemingly dusted their feet too and went on holiday too, that they haven't yet returned back from. Mr Peters was one of those who did too.
Mr. Peters who was a good friend of the head pastor of the House on the Rock Church, in the person of Pastor Paul Adefarasin has since he went abroad, given Nigeria a wide berth and it seems he is not willing to return so soon.
Why he decided to take such a decision, we cannot say?
Why would someone whose major business is located in Nigeria, his major cash cow at that, and the brand itself is even supposedly doing very well not want to return to your own country?
The unconfirmed speculation as we speak is that Mr. Peters is not too far away from Nigeria at all, only that he prefers to conduct the affairs of his vast business empire from our neighbouring country- Ghana! Remember with the way technology has made the world a global village, meetings can be conducted at anytime virtually and online real time. Him being physically present at meetings is of no importance no more, thanks to technology.
More juicy details below.
Not only is the big boy said to be in Accra, Ghana, it is been suggested that he is living as a very "Special Guest" at the "Russian Embassy" enjoying their full privilege and therefore enjoying their full protection.
According to some underground whispers here in Nigeria, Mr Peters might have decided to stay away from Nigeria for now, until the hoopla about his supposed business relationship with the former Minister for Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Dieziani Allison-Madueke would have been sorted out.
Maybe by the time this present Government would have properly investigated very well and seen that every transaction involving Mr. Peters and AITEO during the tenure of the last administration was pure and okay, maybe then the super rich oil tycoon would return home to a hero's welcome.
At home though, his firm AITEO are seemingly doing very well and are even the titular sponsors of the football league in Nigeria and also the sponsors of the Annual CAF Awards. This is a major PR coup we dare say, which later could work very well for the owner of the brand, when the need should arise later in the future.
While still grappling with the dilemma of not being able to come home for now, another major dilemma on the mind of the oil tycoon, who it is claimed also has a major stake running into several millions, if not hundreds of millions of dollars in a very lucrative mine in Congo, is the awesome debt issue that his brand is having with GTBank, one of Nigeria's best run financial institutions.
Apparently that debt burden and the servicing of it has been weighing heavily on the activities of AITEO, so as a way out of the immense situation, Benny Peters might have instructed that part of his company's stake of about 10% in the oil field OML 29 to be sold.
Even when the 10% is sold in the Oil Well, which they jointly operate with Taleveras, Tempo Energy, while the NNPC holds 55%, they would still remain as an operator. The money so raised can be used to sort out that crippling debt burden, which can be removed once and for all, to stop its stifling effect on the brand's activities.

Nose of life!
How do you call people billionaires in this country when they owe the bank so much money. If they were to pay all there debts would they still be billionaires.
How can You Just lay stupid allegations against the person of Mr Benny peters? So One cannot do Business without being labelled as an accomplice with Deziani? This Write up is filled with Bias and Lies.
This is gibberish! The writer of this article is just talking trash. To the best of my knowledge, Benny has no business with Diezani and her travails. Leave him alone.
It should be Rewarding to Note that Mr Benny Peters is a Legitimate Business man doing his Business as every Normal Business man should do. How come you are trying to Disparge his personality by Writing this Trash? I will advise you drop this Rubbish and apologise to Mr Benny
People just wake up from sleep , write Rubbish in other to Blackmail others. Mr Benny Peters has never in anyway ran from anybody. how you choose to spew this Rubbish still baffle some of us .
You need to make extensive research before making post like this. Benny Peters is a nice guy.
Bro leave Benny alone. What's his business with Diezani?
AITEO has been doing Legitimate Business , How Can a Company Bought from shell be Linked to Deziani? Mr Benny is managing AITEO better than the way shell was handling it. so is he not qualified to do business with any individual or Govt?
stop spewing Gibberish and Tantrums just for Relevance . if you wanna Blackmail stop hiding behind a Pseudo
The writer of this is just looking for Relevance. How can someone who bought his Oil well from shell be related to Deziani? Na wa oooo
The way some of you write rubbish eeeh! Smh!
Name Major Businesses that do Business in Nigeria take Loans from banks, So if Aiteo as u "Allegedly" opined took a Loan , How is that a Problem? Stop Looking for Cheap Relevance by Writing or spewing Trash against Mr Benny Peters.
Who posted This Rubbish? and what Proof do u have that Mr Benny Peters is Running from Nigeria?
This whole article is just set out to portray an innocent business man in bad light.
So a billionaire business man can't stay out of the country pursuing his business interest without people like this writer insinuating jargo?
what a pity... thats why we cant grow as a nation, this drag anyone who is succeeding wont help us.
Lol. This alleged "unveiling" is a poor attempt to ridicule a successful Nigerian businessman who has gone global with his business. While your facts apparently lack the ingredients of truth, you are visibly forcing your readers to see the fraudulent picture you have painted with your lies.
Mr Benny Bought his Company Legitimately and does Business like a Normal Businessman should do.How you choose to Blackmail him is Your Problem not ours. Mr Benny and Deziani are two seperate Humans . Stick to facts and stop the Blackmail
Very useless Write up by an Attention Seeker
Haba , how can someone stoop so Low to Blackmailing a Reputable Business man in the Person of Mr Benny Petters? This is so Low from the writer
This is very bad journalism. Businessmen change country of residency every time to suit their personal tastes. a lot of Nigerians left when the economy began to crumble in late 2015, you don't see anyone accusing them of fleeing or implying that they are corrupt. very shameful journalism.
why someone will just wake up to Blackmailing a Normal Businessman is still funny. it is so unfortunate that you can stoop so Low to Blackmail . Mr Benny is a well known Business man who has done well in the business Terrain Globally. How u choose to Blackmail him Remains your Problem not Ours
Hehehe, from living in Ghana to enjoying protection from the Russian embassy? is he not also getting protection from NASA and CIA since we want to tell jokes? trash
Smear campaign...
trying to tie Mr. Benny Peters to Allison Madueke is just laughable and pedestrian.
Last i checked, OML 29 was previously owned by Shell (SPDC) and sold it to a private business man. why try to insinuate lies about the whole thing?
this is a pathetic way write a story.
wetin concern Benny Peters and Allison Madueke? wetin concern agbero and overload?
Na waoh, people must sha write nonsense. na unemployment dey cause am sha
Politics is a very dirty game.. see how they spin things to suit a skewed narrative.
how do we expect other rich man to invest in Nigeria, if we would always try to bring ourselves down.
na wa ooo... so person wey invest for Nigeria cannot travel again? LOL
You guys need to stop. This is purely blackmail.
Ode ni e.
Nonsense post... Dan iskan ni fa!
Your attempt to bring Benny Peter's name to disrepute won't work.
How can someone son just wake up in the morning and post nonsense?
Stop bringing down others. you wont rise from doing so. that being said, Benny Peters and Aiteo have nothing to hide. Nothing here is factual, take this down
I'm just here to read comments...
i always knew there was something fishy about this article. very loopsided.
The comments are funny. Its good to have facts before writing articles, the backlash is needed to teach the writer some lessons in writing.
better rubbish. just drifting from one lie to another in the name of article. Unveiling my a**
From the comments i'm reading here... seems Mr. Benny Peters is a good man.
This does not add up Honestly. Please this post is useless
Waoo! Russian embassy? He must be powerful then!
Mr Benny Peters is a Reputable Business Man. and this does not really add up. Stop the campaign of Calumny and Blackmail
Haven't all you paid goons noticed that your comments were deliberately allowed? If your paymaster can try, let him enter Nigeria then.
Good job Ndiana get all your staff and their friends and family members to comment. At least it shows that the story hit home.
Why are people bent of Blackmailing others , Mr Benny Peters is an astute Business man and does Legitimate Biz
Hahahahaaha... The person who wrote this article must be ashamed now, almost everybody is against the writer.
Your attempt at Extorting Money from Mr Benny Peters will fail. Tell your paymasters That you all have failed and you all are Losers. Mr Benny Peters Remains a Fine / Gentle Businessman , Deal with it
I'm guess this a hatchet job you did for your paymasters... This Blackmail is cheap and tells alot about you and your paymasters.
Lmfaoooo 😂😂😂
You think everyone is like you? Get a life and stop blackmailing people.
Your Comment Mr Admin only showed you are paid to do a Hatchet job . why are you trying to Blackmail a decent Businessman Like Mr Benny Peters
Because you were paid, It doesnt mean everybody is paid. You just exposed yourself now with this comment.
It baffles my imagination that you would use your platform to write gibberish, then in turn accuse folks of being paid. Who paid you to do this then?
From 3 neutral comments to one person registering different names and going anon 30 times ..LMAO...una try o staff and friends of benny
So you have scores to settle with the so called Indiana and you think this the best way to go about?
Hahahahaha. What's happening here?.
So somebody can not travel again.. People will seat and be writing trash. Mtcheeeeew
I don't think the writer deserves all the attacks he is getting. Benny should come out prove the writer wrong.
So, its now a crime to travel... People will just seat and b writing trash.
I really want to know how that OML 29 was sold and government's involvement in the sale process.
Hehehebebe. Wahala dey ooo
You all should get out abeg. Nonsense
Ewwwoooo! See gobe
So if accoding to you all you are saying is true, why hasn't Diezani been arrested?
If he was a wanted man, why is the Nigerian Government not after him? why has EFCC not declared him wanted? is it only Maestrommedia that he offended in this life?
only one person making comments disguised with different names....stop being a fool and just state your opinion.
How sure are we that the Poster was not paid by Business Competitors of AITEO just for cheap Blackmail
The OML29 has nothing to do with Diezani. it was a simple business transaction between Shell and AITEO. You either show us proof that connects Diezani with AITEO and the OML29 or go back to investigative journalism class.
Im just passing oooooo.
LOL. As a businessman, permit me to enlighten you that it is perfectly normal for businesses and businessmen to owe banks money. Even Dangote owes money, everyone owes money and there is nothing illegal that binds it. A simple research would have helped you to understand the dynamics of business but no, you love writing
Biafra or death....
Or what????? Sheeesh!
Nope! I'm not! The writer is right! The post is still up there so deal with it!
