Ashiwaju.org learnt that the Nigeria Minister of Petroleum and Natural Resoueces, Mrs. Diezani Allison-Madueke is bankrolling the documentary while the scripts and voice overs are being prepared and cut with the help of the Nigeria Television Authority and some Nollywood production companies and working for President Jonathan's re-election.
As a result of the massive deal, AIT, which was in poor financial shape that its principal owner, Chief Raymond Dokpesi, had decided to sell it to the banks to which the station owed several billions of Naira, is now back in good standing. It has also become considerably bolder because of the backing of Mrs Dezeani. Allison-Madueke and other powerful government officials behind the deal.
Our investigation reveals that AIT receives N5 million each time an episode of any of the documentaries is aired on their channels in different Nigerian markets.
Apart from the cost of producing and airing the documentaries, Ashiwaju.org found that a team of high-priced lawyers have also been mobilized with about N3 billion to handle any legal threats that may arise from the documentaries. Just last week, APC chieftain Bola Tinubu sued AIT over the documentary on him.
Ashiwaju.org was rightly informed that the next in the series will focus on the Vice Presidential candidate of the APC, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo.
Our source, who pleaded anonymity said the objective of that show will be to “destroy” Prof. Osinbajo who is the vice president candidate of the All Progressive Congress's position as a strong moral leader in the Christian community.
"The idea is to make the Christians who have left Jonathan because of Osinbajo's entry into the Presidential race to have a rethink," our source stated.
“The PDP is still failing the basic mathematics,” a political analyst told Ashiwaju.org . “They can squander all of the money in the Central Bank trying to damage the reputation of everyone in the opposition, but how does that provide a cover for the ineptitude and corruption of the President Goodluck Jonathan led government? Does that explain why Nigeria is far worse than they met it in 2009 it? That is the question Nigerians will be answering when they go to the polls in three weeks.”
