AMCON takes over Murray-Bruce’s companies over debt

                             

The Asset Management Corporation of Nigeria on Thursday morning sealed the Abuja premises of Silverbird Galleria belonging to Senator Ben Murray-Bruce.

The galleria currently houses the Abuja studio of the Radio and Television stations of the senator as well as his other business interests.

Apart from Bruce’s companies, the seven-storey building also houses other companies suchas Shoprite.

The building was sealed by AMCON through the assistance of law enforcement agencies around 8am following a court order secured by AMCON.

Conspicuously written on the fence of the building as well as other strategic locations was an enforcement notice by AMCON which says, “Possession taken by court order 26/06/16.”

It was gathered that the Silverbird Galleria in Lagos was also sealed with workers being denied entry into the galleria, which also houses Silverbird Television and Silverbird Cinema.
