"Your attempt to tie my Chevron acquisition with AMCON is dangerous, ill-informed" - Paddy Adenuga calls out African website

Paddy Adenuga has reacted to  report by African business journal, Quartz Africa, following an analysis of his attempt to acquire Chevron Netherlands.

According to the website, 'The best thing about Paddy Adenuga’s story is that he did not win the bid. Indeed, Adenuga senior was revealed to be a debtor to AMCON, among others, by a newspaper a couple of years ago. The last time AMCON published a list of its top 100 debtors, the top three were all oil and gas companies with close to $1 billion outstanding among them. All of them taken out in the heady days of $100 oil and aggressive assumptions about how much money it was possible to make'.

In his reaction Pddy Adenuga tweeted, 'the @qzafrica article's attempt to tie my chevron NL acquisition with AMCON is dangerous, ill-informed, and a case of poor journalism. i'd never use Nigeria's tax payer money for a private European deal - NEVER! i'm open to criticism - i am just not open to lies and falsehoods'.
