June 2013, NNPC/Total awarded the contract for the EPC to build $3.8Billion Egina FPSO to Samsung Heavy Industries despite the fact that Hyundai Heavy Industries was recommended by Total for the project and was lowest bidder~@MosesSiasia

Since the award of the contract to Samsung, the company has collected hundreds of millions of variations of 20% of Contract value, with no local content in it. Their attempt to advocate for a new variation will be stopped

Samsung uses contract manipulation and advanced form of bribery which has caused an increase in youth unemployment and led to massive capital flight with thousands of jobs created for young South Koreans with Nigerian resources.

Colossal attempt by foreign companies with the intent to instigate massive corruption and further undermine existing local content laws in Nigeria

Investigations by several govt agencies like @officialEFCC, DSS & @nassnigeria with an attempt to unravel the manner Samsung was able to win the contract but the findings have not been published, but it is believed that Samsung paid bribes in the region of $50m

Some of these companies have mastered the act of bypassing due process, ignoring existing local content law and disregarding national interest for their corporate gains, which amounts to sabotage of the national economy~@MosesSiasia

It is our considered opinion that this contract award to Samsung is highly irregular and must be thoroughly investigated to avoid a replay of a scenario similar to Halliburton bribery scandal

Oil companies are now planning an additional 5 FPSOs for Nigeria and that Samsung Heavy Industries has clearly used its bribes in the Egina project to minimize its use of local content.

Samsung has succeeded in diverting 100s of millions of $ in variations to SouthKorea. We challenge @MBuhari led govt to make an example by sending them out of 🇳🇬, banned them from participating in future projects as a deterrent to others

Foreign companies should not be allowed to take advantage of Nigeria, divert fund, inflate contracts & bribe officials to the detriment of young Nigerians who are denied jobs and basic means of livelihood
