The management of the Nigerian Ports Authority has reacted to news report and enquiries that the Ado Bayero family of Kano has stakes in the Nigerian Ports Authority and Intels Nigeria.

In a statement issued by NPA it stated that: “Contrary to reports in a major national daily and response to other enquiries, the Nigerian Ports Authority asserts as follows: neither the late Emir of Kano nor his estate holds any subsisting equity in Intels Nigeria Limited, adding that, “Our Managing Director, Alhaji Sanusi Lamido Ado Bayero is the first son of the late Emir of Kano, Alhaji Ado Bayero.”

The statement further noted that: “The Ado Bayero family disposed of the equity interest of the late Alhaji Ado Bayero in Intels Nigeria upon his demise.
This transaction was effected over six months before President Goodluck Jonathan appointed the distinguished corporate lawyer Alhaji Sanusi Lamido Ado Bayero as managing director of the Nigeria Ports Authority.
