• Mischief makers ascribe MRS boss’ absence from social scene to strange ailment
Rumour is like a sharp blade; it kills without drawing blood. When it does, the damage manifests as internal bleeding; ask the victims of the nastiest rumours, the damage they suffer defies description. Yet the rumour monger would take no heed of the import of his or her perilous fancies – that is why the rumour mill, high society gossip factory in particular, is forever spinning and spreading the dirt on unsuspecting victims.
The latest victim of the high society rumour mill is none other than Sayyu Dantata. The Chairman of MRS Holdings and MRS Oil Plc, is currently at the receiving end of a damaging rumour that is spuriously tied to his health situation and general wellbeing.
The popular polo buff and sponsor of polo tournaments across the country’s north and southwest is allegedly hit by an undisclosed ailment. Mischief makers insinuate that Dantata’s persistent absence from the country’s social and business scenes is as a result of a strange ailment that has taken great toll on the health of the lanky gentleman.
One source revealed that Dantata is currently undergoing treatment in the United States of America (USA) due to the grievous ailment.
However, another source said that the MRS boss dropped out of the social scene due to the pressure of running a mega-business which has been hard-hit by the global downturn in the oil market.
You couldn’t have forgotten so soon that Sayyu was the cause of multibillionaire businessmen, Aliko Dangote and Femi Otedola well celebrated tiff. They have indeed put the past behind them, their renewed friendship now provides ballast for each other.
The story of their bitter fallout is well documented in the media. That was over four years ago though. Eschewing all forms of bitterness and acrimony, keeping at arm’s length potential antagonists, carrying on like they never dissed each other, the duo has found joy in being each other’s confidante again.
