Eni suffered another defeat!

The Court of Appeal of Rome judges upheld the lower court ruling confirming that Eni's lawsuit against me is “unfounded”.

Now it's my turn to sue you for #slander and #defamation and claim #compensation for all the #damage I've suffered in these 18 long years!

Eni & Me: 18 years of "Ethical Clash"​

I confess I could only have a complete “X-Ray” of these 18 years of “Ethical Clash” with Eni, when the Board of the company answered, in a long text, my 10 questions which were included in the questions elaborated by the journalist and Eni’s “Critical Shareholder”, at the 2017 Shareholders Meeting:

“Contrary to his belief, from the investigations performed by Eni, following the notices received in 2002, it emerged that, as reported by the Board of Statutory Auditors of Eni SpA in the Shareholders Meeting Report included in the Eni 2002 Financial Statements, “the former employee was dismissed, along with the perpetrators of misconduct, for reticence, for having breached his confidentiality obligation and for having attempted to exploit the Eni Group’s Code of Practice in order to obtain personal advantages from the company”.

Note that Eni confirms receiving my correspondence in 2002. Indeed, I sent a letter to the Board of the company when my resignation from Agip of Brazil, Eni’s former subsidiary, completed 1 year, on August 1st, 2002.

The company also states that the outcome of the “investigations” conducted on my case was published in the “Eni 2002 Financial Statements”. But in the "354" pages of this official document, the company made no mention of me!

In addition, the “reason” alleged by the company for me to have been fired from Agip of Brazil doesn’t correspond to the reality of the facts as will be demonstrated on this ARTICLE.

Eni: The Parallel State!

Even as #Italian #oil giant #ENI continues to fight corruption charges over bribing officials in #Nigeria they come up again on the radar as an alleged possible pass-through for #bribes and #campaign finance between the #FarRight & #Russia. #corruption #again #again #again
This is Eni's Way!

New Questions for the Eni's Board

These are my "New Questions" to the Eni's Board.

My main goal is to rescue and restore my name, my honor and my reputation unfairly depreciated in these 18 long years because of a series of misconceptions committed by Eni.

Such misconceptions will be demonstrated and proven in this document.

I wait for answer of the Italian oil giant!

Ethical Clash

Mr. Mauro Meggiolaro (Eni's Critical Shareholder):
hashta Eni's AGM 2019 will be an "Ethical Clash"!

Good luck!

The truth is emerging!

"Internal emails and documents obtained by ⁦‪SOMO ⁩and ⁦‪Milieudefensie‬⁩ reveal that Shell bullied Nigeria with ISDS arbitration to acquire the lucrative oil field OPL245 with extremely favourable fiscal conditions for Shell and Eni" by Bart-Jaap Verbeek

And now Eni? And now Eni's Board?

The siege is closing!!!

Bayo Ojo, Former AGF, Admits Receiving $10m 'Compensation' From Dan Etete For Malabu Deal by Sahara Reporters Media Group.

Ojo made the admission in a passage of his examination in Milan in the ongoing trial of former top officials of Eni and Shell.

Career Catapulted by Eni's CEO

A common career until she gets to the CEO's Office. In a short time she was promoted to the position of "VP"! Was it professional competence or did she use the "catapult" of the CEO?

This is #Eni's Way!

Eni’s CEO: He is laughing at us!

Even sitting in the "bank of the defendants" for being accused of the “crime” of Internacional Corruption” involving the "Bribe of the Century" in Nigeria, the CEO of the Italian oil giant mocks the "Best Practices" of the Corporate Governance and Compliance with full support from the Board of the company that, formed by members appointed by the largest shareholder - the Italian government - pretends that nothing happens and doesn't have the attitudes of honest, proper, and Ethical companies.

Shell and Eni on trial

This website is a repository of publicly-available documents relating to the historic prosecution of Royal Dutch Shell and Eni in Milan, Italy, and other jurisdictions for alleged international corruption in the acquisition of the OPL 245 oil field in Nigeria.

A large salary!

It is explained why Eni's CEO - even accused of "International Corruption" - has no one to take him out of the flight deck of the Italian oil giant... If he was fired from #Eni it would be too hard to get a job with such a large salary!

The beginning of the end of Eni!

Today, Judge Giusy Barbara ruled on the conviction of two middlemen in the scandal-ridden OPL 245 oil field deal, in which she stated: "The management of oil companies Eni (and Shell) were fully aware of the fact that part of the $1.092 billion paid would have been used to compensate Nigerian public officials who had a role in this matter and who were circling their prey like hungry sharks,” - as reported by Reuters.

In response, Barnaby Pace, Oil Campaigner at Global Witness said:

"This ruling will send shivers down the spines of the oil industry - and will surely alarm Shell and Eni employees and shareholders who have been repeatedly told that there was nothing amiss with the OPL 245 deal."

The Milan judge made the comment in her written reasons for the September conviction of Nigerian Emeka Obi and Italian Gianluca Di Nardo, both middlemen in the OPL 245 deal, for corruption. The pair were sentenced to four year jail terms.

Another lawsuit! And now Eni?

Nigeria has filed a $1.092bn legal claim in the UK High Court against oil giants hashtag#Eni (and Shell), over alleged fraudulent practices and cases of corruption, and subsequent divergence of billions of dollars in potential revenue from the Nigerian people.

And now Eni? What does the Board of the company have to say?

CEO Eni vs CEO Renault

The French government, which is the largest shareholder of Renault, dismissed Carlos Ghosn from command of the company over allegations of misconduct at Nissan in Japan. Meanwhile, in Italy, Eni's CEO, a defendant for international corruption, remains ahead of the Italian oil gaint. At the very least, a questionable and regrettable stance!

This is Eni's Way!

Eni linked to dark deals in Africa

Eni’s activities and projects exploring for oil in South Africa need investigation. Its history in Africa is tainted, writes Dennis Morton.

The Italian oil company has claimed that developing offshore territory in KwaZulu-Natal and creating sustainable value was critical to the region’s success.

But Eni used similar social responsibility arguments to get a foothold in Nigeria, Algeria and the Democratic Republic of Congo — before securing exploration concessions allegedly through bribery and corruption.

This is Eni's Way!

OPL 245: This is Eni's Way!

Oil giants Eni (and Shell) are on trial in Milan for their part in a bribery scheme that robbed the Nigerian people of $1.1billion.

The case brought by the Milan Public Prosecutor alleges that $520 million from the deal was converted into cash and intended to be paid to then Nigerian President Goodluck Jonathan and other Nigerian government officials. The prosecutors further allege that money was also channelled to Eni and Shell executives, with $50 million in cash delivered to the home of Eni’s then head of African Operations Roberto Casula.

On October 17th 2018, Global Witness co-founder, Simon Taylor, gave evidence in the trial, having triggered the investigation which led to the trial by submitting a criminal complaint by Global Witness, Re:Common, and The Corner House in 2013.

Eni, say the truth!

If two journalists published my story with the Italian oil giant in the first investigative book ("Eni: The Parallel State") and another journalist, in the quality of "Eni's Critical Shareholder", took this same story to "Eni's Shareholders' Meeting" in 2017 and 2018, why the Board of Eni continues to "lie" about the "truth of the facts" in these 17 years of my fight to rescue and restore my name, my honor and my reputation that are being denigrated by Eni to this day?

Eni, say the truth!!!

Note: Read more about my story!

Eni's Shareholders

Mr. Mauro Meggiolaro (Eni's Critical Shareholder): 

Why don't the investors of #Eni do like the investors of Petrobras? Because of the internal fraud and acts of corruption discovered by the "Car Wash Operation", the investors of the Brazilian oil company filed lawsuits in Brazil, in the U.S.A and now in Argentina. 

The "Bribe of the Century" paid by the Italian oil giant in the #OPL245 Case in Nigeria should motivate its investors to seek compensation for their finantial losses!!!

Eni: New lawsuit... New retaliation!

The Italian oil giant Eni moved a new (frivolous) lawsuit against me. The protocol to the petition was filed 30 days after my complaint of crimes against honor made in the Criminal Justice of Brazil against all the directors of the Board of Eni.

Actually, this new (frivolous) lawsuit is one more retaliation of Eni against its whistleblower!

Note: Also know the questions that the Italian oil giant needs to answer about my case and the dozens of documents that prove that everything I've said in these more than 17 years is the truth, nothing but the truth!

Eni's AGM 2018 vs Eni's Critical Shareholder

At the AGM 2018, the journalist Mr. Mauro Meggiolaro, using his rights as a critical shareholder of Eni, used the pulpit of the Shareholders' Meeting to talk about my case. 

"We have been contacted again by Douglas Linares Pinto, a former manager of the Eni group in Brazil. Since we know that there are legal problems under way with Eni – a couple of years ago we asked a number of questions at the Shareholders’ Meeting on his behalf, with a view to acting as mediators between Douglas Linares Pinto and the Company to try and settle this conflict. I suggest that we organize a meeting with you: we would like to try to solve the issue, if you agree to have a meeting (he wanted to be here but could not come). If we can meet and overcome the emotional side of the affair, which is sometimes a bit strong, and we can instead talk about concrete facts, we would be happy to do so"

When will the Italian oil giant schedule the meeting suggested by one of its shareholders? Will Eni wait for the change of command in the company that will be made by the new Italian government or not?

Eni & Me: 17 years of retaliations!

Today my story with the Italian oil giant completes 17 years.

Know the summary of my fight to rescue and restore my name, my honor and my reputation that are being denigrated by Eni to this day. Proof of this is that, in retaliation for my criminal complaint in Brazil's courts against all members of the Board of the company for libel and slander at the AGM 2017, Eni filed another "frivolous lawsuit" against the whistleblower whi dares to confront them.

Also know the questions that the Italian oil giant needs to answer about my case and the dozens of documents that prove that everything I've said in these more than 17 years is the truth, nothing but the truth!

Eni: deviations of character and misconduct!

Dozen of questions asked to the Board of Eni. A hundred of supporting documents. Ans no answer! Not even a single answer! 

The silence of the Italian oil giant only shows its deviations of character and its misconduct.

Read the questions that Eni needs to answer!

Last question to be answered by Eni

This is the "last question" to be answered by Eni.  Introduction Question 15: A Truly True Story I believe I was able to demonstrate that the story that I live with Eni in these almos 17 years is the honest truth. Indeed, Eni made some mistakes and errors regarding my case. And this is easily noted. However, if Eni still has any doubt, it would be important that the company conducted an “investigation” into my case. Thus, Eni could convince itself that my dismissal was unjust and that, in all these years, there were a series of mistakes and errors that are contradictory to the words and spirit of Eni’s Code of Ethics. Question 15: Is it possible for the Board of Eni to authorize an investigation into my case so we can put, at last, an end point in this story?
I am Eni's Whistleblower that suffers "retaliation" from this company until today.

There will be a total of "15 questions" which, in these 17 years, Eni has not yet answered.

Follow daily the new questions this Blog to see if the Italian oil giant will answer.

Question 14 to be answered by Eni

This is "Question 14" to be answered by Eni. 

Introduction Question 14: Eni’s Executive vs Corruption

Executives are accused of "corruption" and the company defends them by stating that it fully “trusts” them! This is the case of Eni’s CEO: Mr. Claudio Descalzi (Doc. 44-I) and Eni’s Executivo: Mr. Roberto Casula (Doc. 44-J).

Question 14: Wouldn’t it be more prudent if Eni “sent away” these executives until the investigations of the Italian Criminal Prosecutor’s Office or even the ongoing criminal proceedings are over?
