Information reaching Kossyderrickent has it that Journalist David Hundeyin has shared lawsuit case files involving Bola Tinubu's Alpha Beta transfers totalling over $4m to one "Summit Integrated Services Ltd, owned by Eparquio Jose Gonzalez Oliveros in Colombia.
David Hundeyin wrote: "Didn't flag this earlier, but I'll do so now. In the Alpha Beta lawsuit case files, there are 2 suspicious transfers totalling over $4m to one "Summit Integrated Services Ltd".
It is a UK registered "engineering services" company whose directors all live in Colombia. "Summit Integrated Services" is a briefcase company created through a company creation service called Quality Company Formations (QCF Secretaries Limited).
It is owned by one Eparquio Jose Gonzalez Oliveros and his children, all based in the city of Barranquilla, Colombia. A short primer about the importance of Barranquilla, northwestern Colombia to the global drug trade.
"TLDR: Due to the rise of drug cartels in the 80s and 90s and its maritime proximity to the US and Central America, its port is a major cocaine export hub. Unusually for an entrepreneur purporting to offer services publicly, the only other place Eparquio Jose Gonzalez Oliveros shows up is on the board of "Eparquio Jose Gonzalez Oliveros and Sons Ltd," a small company which says it offers "road freight transport" in Barranquilla.
"The the total net worth of the company, as stated on Colombian public record is less than $50,000. Clearly, this is hardly a significant business entity in global terms.
"Yet its owner apparently maintains a UK briefcase company that receives millions of dollars. How and why? More importantly, why did Alpha Beta Consultants, a business owned by Bola Ahmed Tinubu, a known drug trafficker, transfer $4,396.063.33 to this briefcase entity owned by an unknown Colombian "entrepreneur" based in Barranquilla, a major global cocaine export hub on 18/03/2015?"
Court statement:
"I recommend viewing or downloading the case files of the Dapo Apara v Bola Tinubu/Alpha Beta lawsuit here.
The physical case files were conveniently destroyed when the Igbosere High Court mysteriously burned down in 2020 and the case has not been refiled. GENERAI. FORM 0F WRIT 0F SUMMONS
