Former First Lady Patience Jonathan says she mentored oil magnate Azibapu Eruani, describing his progression from early beginnings to becoming a prominent businessman. She says her encouragement and guidance helped him pursue major investments, including the establishment of the Azikel Refinery in Bayelsa State.
Jonathan also claims she played a role in building Eruani’s connections in the business sector. One outlet reports she said she introduced him to major industry figures, including Dangote and Dantata, while other coverage focuses on the broader mentorship theme and that her comments are circulating in a viral video.
The outlets present the same core message—that Jonathan assisted in Eruani’s business development—while differing mainly in the emphasis of additional details, such as specific introductions versus a more general account of mentorship and investment milestones.
