Saharareporters report that Jide Omokore, a businessman linked to Nigeria’s President Goodluck Jonathan, early in the week suffered a heart attack shortly after a meeting with Mr. Jonathan.
Family sources say Mr. Omokore has been stabilized and is recuperating at home in Abuja.
Omokore is at the center of a variety of financial deals involving the President and the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Diezani Alison-Madueke.
Some of the deals involve a revelation by the ousted governor of Nigeria’s Central Bank, Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, that some businessmen took $6 billion from the proceeds of crude oil sales and shared it amongst themselves.
Omokore is also at the center of a scam in which the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC) Ltd, a fully-owned subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), was used as a conduit by Omokore’s Atlantic Energy.
In 2011, Mrs. Alison-Madueke caused the NNPC to sign strategic partnership agreements through NPDC to engage in managing OML 4, 38, 41, and 30, 34, which had been sold by Shell to the NPDC.
Omokore’s firm was supposed to get 30% of the profit from the deal but NPDC officials told SaharaReporters that all the sale proceeds were taken by Omokore on behalf of President Jonathan and Alison-Madueke.
Mr. Omokore is also heavily involved in the kerosene subsidy scam which runs in the billions of Naira.
Sources tell SaharaReporters that he is also in possession of at least two private jets he is believed to be holding in trust for Mr. Jonathan and the oil minister. In 2012, the French police briefly detained a private jet conveying Mr. Omokore from Paris to Monaco.

DeleteNigerians wish all of them heart attack and death as they wish all of us death through their selfishness and mismanagement of our common resource. One man will acquire all wealth while his community suffers,people can't go to bed with food in their stomach because no money to feed. I wish all our leaders and politicians who has one way or the other ruin our dearest country Nigerian down through their scam and fraud. Let God of Nigeria continue to end their lives through cancers and other related sickness. Nigeria leaders are the worst in the world. Poverty is too much while our useless president is spending millions today at his daughters wedding. Stella post this comment.
