Dangote Vs. Farouk Ahmed feud renewed: Dangote: “Mallan Farouk has four of his children whom he educated in Switzerland at a cost of $5 million for their secondary school education alone, not university. “When you look at his income, his income does not match paying this kind of fees.... And even if it’s me paying $5m for six years for my four children, the taxman has to look at my taxes and how much I pay.” “From Sokoto, where he comes from, people are struggling to pay N100,000 for school fees. A lot of children are at home, not going to school, because of N100,000,” Aliko Dangote added, alleging that the Chief Executive of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, Farouk Ahmed, should be investigated.show more

EFCC right now

😂🤣😭 The name of the school is probably Institut Le Rosey in Switzerland. School fees is 180,000 Dollars per year. That's 260Million Per year. The school doesn't accept more than 40 students from any country. He has more than 1 child in that school. ✌🏾and ♥️

This is not feud.. it’s exposing a criminal, thief, looter and scammer

This is serious And this must be substantiated And this is a clinical example of how public officials use govt positions to stifle and frustrate businesses and business owners Both foreign and indigenous Aliko has had it He has taken the gloves completely off

Both in the Quotes and Replies; I haven't seen enough outrage from Nigerians. A public servant is lavishing public funds on Swiss education for his children but Nigerians here are saying Alhaji is playing dirty politics. What a Country

He’s probably the only man in Nigeria that can call out those corrupt politicians and public officials.

These are the issues, public officials living large on public funds while actively trying to sabotage the country for their personal gains. NMDPRA and NNPC are one of the most corrupt agencies in Nigeria. Let their defenders come and hear

Dangote is not a man who needs falsehood to validate his stature. His legacy is already sealed. For someone of his standing to make such grave allegations publicly, you can be certain due diligence has been done. And let’s be honest with ourselves; none of this is new. We have always known that entrenched criminal interests siphon from the collective sweat of Nigerians, not merely for personal gain, but to secure comfort for generations yet unborn. My hope is that more private sector leaders will find the courage to be this candid and patriotic; bold enough to name and shame those bleeding the nation dry. And more importantly, that the individuals implicated are not considered untouchable by the authorities.

See the amount a public servant is spending on his children's tuition fees. It's over for some of us.

For those that don't know who Farouk Ahmed is 👇 Mr. Farouk Ahmed is the pioneer & serving Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, an institution which is charged with the responsibility of administering the regulatory oversight of the Midstream & Downstream Petroleum Operations in Nigeria.

Some of the defenders of Farouk are getting it wrong. Dangote is not saying wealth is a crime. He’s saying unexplained wealth in public office is a legal and moral issue. Under Nigerian law, public officers are subject to asset declaration, tax compliance, and accountability standards. When lifestyle and expenditure appear grossly disproportionate to known income, the proper response is scrutiny by every good citizen. If the numbers add up, an investigation clears the air. If they don’t, the law must speak. That’s how things work.

At N500k per session, $5m will train 2,500 children through their secondary school education. That’s how much a single public servant on a salary paid to train just 4 of his own children alone. One man, denied 2500 innocent children access to education, to a future, to life because he wanted the best for his own children at the expense of everyone else! I laugh when people say Nigeria is a poor country. No, we are not! We are just being stolen dry. No country was created wealthy, every nation worked their way through building wealth. However in Nigeria, a very few eat/steal our seeds instead of planting it to grow wealth for our collective benefit.

Dangote is the Elon Musk of Africa. Got huge balls to call anyone out. Mallan Farouk must provide some answers. The authorities must without wasting time activate immediate investigation. He needs to come out and tell the source of his income to afford such huge spending on his children schools? Corruption in Nigeria is embedded in the system regardless of sectors. Flip side, I hope the @officialEFCC won’t go mia on this case Fingers crossed

Alhaji has understand this game "is either you fight to finish or you allow them perish you"

Dangote didn’t miss words. When public officials live like billionaires abroad while citizens struggle at home, questions will always be asked. Transparency matters.

$5 million just for secondary school fees, that's about N8 billion. That's the annual IGR of some states in Nigeria, the waste in Nigeria is crazy.

@officialEFCC is useless and that's all I know. The body that was equipped to investigate these sort of crimes and corruption internally decided not to do their job. Just to hunt petty thieves and chase oppositions. Yet act blind to the real corruption killing Nigeria.

Where is EFCC AND ICPC right now?

EFCC be like

This is why Nigeria needs Peter Obi.We need somebody that will straighten the system & lock up every loop hole. It's about time, we rally round the rightcandidate tohelp regjig our country.We can't continue like this, a civil servant coughing out over $5m for sch fees is alarming

Dangote did not accuse; he asked for investigation. That is responsible civic engagement.

The children of the accused might be on Twitter insulting the government for one thing or the other

They’ve probably ordered their private investigators to look for dirt on him. Interesting

Talk about calling someone out on a national level, interesting.

Mallan Farouk Ahmed have entered, those who know Dangote, know that he doesn't fight empty

Be like Farouk is on papi dangote neck again 😂 Each time they threaten his organization nah him baba dey call press

Mallam Farouk should be investigated thoroughly. He is spending money he doesn’t earn, and how did he get such a huge amount of money to send his four children to school in Switzerland?

It clearly showed he didn't use his salary to pay for the school fee. The money must have come from the proceeds of oil lootings. Honestly, he deserves to be suspended and investigated.👌

Dangote will not rest until this Farouk guy is fired!!

This is a serious allegation that should not be swept under the carpet. At the current official rate of N1,450 to $1, the $5million paid by Farouk Ahmed for his 4 children for 6 secondary school years, amount to over N300 million per year for one child! What?!! Let's assimilate that once again: A civil servant paid N300 million for the education of his child for one year! And he's sitting pretty in his office? It's clear why our Refineries cannot and would not work. These are the kind of people feeding fat on the sweat of other Nigerians. Alhaji Aliko Dangote is not flippant. He cannot afford to be. The other time, he said some NNPC officials operate a Refinery in Malta. That was never investigated. This should not be treated the same way, President @officialABAT.

I will be very angry with Alhaji, if he doesn't personally take this up in the court as he suggested. Otedelo helped send that other man to prison, Dangote should help with this one too before some people start calling for "brothers meeting".
