Atiku was the highest after President Muhammadu Buhari in terms of political leadership profile. Having deputized President Olusegun Obasanjo between 1999 and 2007, he remains the longest serving Vice President ever in Nigeria’s history. Apart from his successful joint ticket with Obasanjo, he had slugged out with incumbent President Buhari and immediate past President Goodluck Jonathan. He is a business mogul and unlike a number of other politicians, he proudly own up to his stupendous wealth. He has followers across the country and his political structures abound everywhere.

Apart from the failed attempt made by General Sani Abacha to take over the company when he was the military head of state, Chief Olusegun Obasanjo also tried to close the company when he was the President and this coincided with the time he had a frosty relationship with his deputy, Atiku Abubakar. Obasanjo felt that the best way to cripple Atiku was to close down Intels and he pushed so hard but had to stop when relevant agencies drew his attention to the security implications of his order if it is implemented. That security implication of crippling the company still has not changed.
