BROTHERS AT WAR…CAPITAL OIL BOSS, IFEANYI UBAH, SIR EMEKA OFFOR SET TO LOCK HORNS

The drumbeats of war resound across the nooks and crannies of the Igbo nation, like the stirrings of medieval blood-fests between warring ethnic giants. But unlike the carnages of old that shaped and malformed the histories of great icons and civilisations, the ongoing spat between Ifeanyi Ubah and Emeka Offor may incite no bloodbath.

Weeks after he was released from detention, Capital Oil and Gas founder, Dr. Ifeanyi Ubah, is finding it easier to forgive his acclaimed enemies than to forgive his purported friends; those that smile and eat with him yet, orchestrated more harm with a smile plastered on their faces. Ubah was arrested by the State Security Service May 5 over alleged diversion of petrol kept in his tank farm in Lagos by the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC. He spent six weeks in detention.

Late last week, he coughed out N2billion out of the N11bilion he owes the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC. That is however not the story. The Anambra State native is reportedly very peeved with the role another prominent Igbo businessman and vice chairman of Chrome Group, Sir Emeka Offor, played in the whole saga. Aside that a man he calls his own brother as both hail from the same village didn’t lift a finger while his ordeal lasted, Ubah allegedly has privileged information that Sir Offor gave sensitive information to the security agents leading to his arrest. This was one betrayal too much, Ubah reportedly contended.
As things stand, Ubah is spoiling for a showdown and he has good grounds for his grouse, his posse told this reporter. It was gathered that Ubah would do anything at this juncture to recover a N400million loan he advanced Sir Offor when he buried his father late 2016. Knowing his controversial predilection, there is no gainsaying that this portends a fight the battle-weary Offor might find hard to win.
