Finance Bank of Zambia to be taken over by BancABC

Atlas Mara, the majority shareholder of BancABC, has confirmed that it is looking forward to take over the sixth largest bank of Zambia, the Finance Bank of Zambia. The news was floated in the first week of November 2015 and Dr. Rajan Mahtani, who is the ex-Chairman of Finance Bank Zambia too confirmed this news.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani holds some stake at Atlas Mara and this transformation is likely to add some more credit to his list of contributions to Zambia. This deal will be done partly through money and partly in shares. To be precise, BancABC will offer USD $ 60 million in cash and another 2.6 million through its own shares. The figures clearly indicate that this is going to be one of the biggest business deals in Zambia.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

Collins, an employee of FBZ comments, “The news of take over came as a pleasant surprise for us. We had no idea that our bank was going to be taken over by a global giant BancABC. Dr. Rajan Mahtani has always worked for our betterment and we totally support his actions.”

At the present, the Finance Bank of Zambia had a combined assets of about USD $261 million. The proposed takeover will make the BancABC as the largest bank in Zambia with a combined assets of worth US $418 million. Dr. Rajan Mahtani has once again proved that no amount of conspiracy can stop him from making developments in Zambia. Over the years, he has faced challenges, met challenges eye to eye and has overcome them with a passion to make his brother smile. Zambia’s true is a businessman named as Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

However, one can always Zambia Reports to come up with an imaginative story and start all over with the defamation campaign; financed by the Ventriglias.

Mahtani Group of Companies brings a blessing for Luapula

The Luapula Province in Africa will now have a bio-ethanol plant where cassava, a widely available crop in Luapula, will be used a raw material. The objective of this plant is to help Luapula province to go green. With a budget of USD $150 million and partnership with the Sunbird Group, the Mahtani Group of Companies has made one of the greatest developments for Luapula Province in Africa.

A resident of the Luapula Province comments, “We are really fortunate to have been blessed with plant being setup in our own province. Over the years, we have struggled to remain employed for most of the time. Hopefully, this plant will give us a permanent solution to our problem.” The bio-ethanol plant is likely to generate a direct employment of 2, 000 workers along with creating an additional 5, 000 jobs indirectly.

Mahtani Group of Companies

Development is the key to success. With a bio-ethanol plant coming up in a province like Luapula, it is obvious that the people will find opportunities to get employed and create a good future for themselves and their family. Earlier, issues like unemployment, poor literacy rate and lack of business opportunities prevailed in Zambia, but with this plant all the aforesaid issues will be eradicated soon.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani, the executive Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies is extremely pleased with the deal and is glad that he has been able to help his fellow brothers. Over the years, his contribution for Zambia has grown constantly. May it be the Finance Bank or Finsbury Investments, his primary intent is to develop Zambia and the rest of Africa through employing the citizens. Though he has been targeted by many conspirators, he continues to ignore them and move ahead with a view to contribute for a cause- Development of his motherland, Africa!

Dr. Rajan Mahtani strikes a crucial deal for Luapula Province

For people who have been thinking that Zambia Reports has been doing a commendable job by publishing the right news against Dr. Rajan Mahtani, will now come to know about the truth about Zambia Reports along with seeing the true face of the Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies, Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Zambia Reports is nothing but a sham, and is currently being run by Sakwiba Sikota in Zambia. In addition to a corrupt lawyer, the news portal is funded by the Ventriglia family from Italy whose objective is to snatch the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory from the hands of Finsbury Investment. Again, Dr. Rajan Mahtani is a member of Finsbury Investments as well. To sum up, one can understand the fact that a person who is the former Chairman of Finance Bank Zambia Plc., the Executive Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies, a member of Finsbury Investment and holds other key positions is bound to have people who are jealous with his popularity. This is why an onslaught is being run by the conspirators so that they can snatch away some part of the achievements made by Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

As per the latest information, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has made a crucial deal with the UK Giant Sunbird Group to establish a bio-ethanol plant in the Luapula province with an estimated budget of USD $150 million. The project is likely to create a direct employment for 2, 000 workers and indirect employment for 5, 000 workers.

For people who were misled by Zambia Reports and the conspirators, this is the true picture of Dr. Rajan Mahtani! The person whom ZR depicts as a culprit, is actually a man with a heart of gold. He has dedicated his life towards nurturing the careers of his fellow Zambian brothers and taking care of Zambia’s development.

NCZ becomes a headache for Dr. Rajan Mahtani

How often have we seen that an innocent man gets trapped in controversies because the conspirators want to take advantage of a certain situation. An exclusive example of such hideous nature was seen when Zambia Reports tried to defame the Finance Bank Chairman, Zambia, Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Zambia Reports recently mentioned that Dr. Rajan Mahtani is looking forward to takeover the Nitrogen Chemicals of Zambia Ltd., by forwarding a loan to the entity. The logic presented behind this rumour is that the loan facility for NCZ would create a burden of loan instalment as well as the interest on the borrower and when NCZ will not be able to repay the same, Dr. Mahtani will takeover the factory.

Rajan Mahtani

A simple logic that the conspirators have forgotten is that Dr. Rajan Mahtani and Finance Bank Zambia are two separate entities. Neither Finance Bank Zambia nor Dr. Rajan Mahtani is liable for each other’s action. Even if NCZ fails to repay its loan instalment, it is Finance Bank Zambia who will take the actions, not Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Now, to present the truth! The deal between NCZ and FBZ never really happened. There is no record in the official register that NCZ has availed a loan facility from the Finance Bank. Moreover, it is only Zambia Reports who comes with some rubbish claims, every single time. Why don’t other news portals make such claims? Because, they know the difference between journalism and character assassination.

What we can draw from the articles of Zambia Reports is that their primary intent is to use the name of Dr. Rajan Mahtani and create fabricated story, such that he gets harassed over and over again. They are simply shameless in their approach and continue to perform their task of character assassination with pride. This is why they are not facing several legal charges under their name.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani and Zambia will have the last laugh

No matter how long the conspirators want, they can move ahead with their fabricated stories and malicious articles. It has become evident that Zambia Reports, Sakwiba Sikota and the Italian Mafias (the Ventriglias) are working hand in hand with a view to injure the reputation of the former Finance Bank Chairman, Dr. Rajan Mahtani.

Dr. Rajan Mahani’s name has been dragged in news ranging from bribery cases to money laundering. Each and every time Zambia Reports has claimed that their well-placed source has caught the event right infront of his eyes, but has no concrete evidence such as a photograph, video or an audio recording to claim the same. This clearly means that the news are fabricated in the premise of Zambia Reports and is closely monitored by Sakwiba Sikota.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

The greed for easy money has gripped the conspirators. This is why they are continuously looking forward to blame Dr. Rajan Mahtani and win the public confidence. However, the same has not influenced the people of Zambia. Every Zambian is well aware of the conspiracies that this funded news portal is capable of making.

A worker commented, “The Ventriglia family has disrupted every single harmony which prevailed in Zambezi Portland Cement factory. They are constantly looking for ways to extract money and make themselves as rich as possible. They are never bothered to care about us and we live in misery.”

The statement clearly indicates that there is nothing much to worry for Zambia as all the citizens stand united with Dr. Rajan Mahtani. All believe that irrespective of the lies which is published by this news portal, there is a hope that the Court will make a legitimate decision and thrown out the Mafias out of the management of the factory. To sum up, Dr. Rajan Mahtani and Zambia will have the last laugh!

Zambians support the Former Chairman Finance Bank Zambia

The Former Chairman Finance Bank Zambia, Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani has been receiving an overwhelming support from the people of Zambia when he needed it the most. As everyone in Zambia is aware of the fact that the conspirators- The Ventriglia family, Sakwiba Sikota and Zambia Reports have resorted to use dishonest means to harass Dr. Mahtani, Zambians have come out in huge number to show their support towards one of the most profound visionary of Africa.

Collins, a Zambian says, “Dr. Rajan Mahtani is like a father to me. He has helped me when my family was in need of a person who can feed them. With 3 brothers, 2 sisters and a mother to feed, he was the one who offered me employment in the Zambezi Portland Cement. This man has a heart of gold.”

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

The Former Chairman Finance Bank Zambia, Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani has always believed in helping the poor and working for the development of his motherland. The support which he is getting at the moment is because of his excellence in the past. Hundreds of people like Collins have been benefitted from his support.

Francis, a worker in Zambezi Portland Cement comments, “We respect Dr. Rajan Mahtani for his dedication. Under his management, he was seen this factory go from the bottom to the top in no time. Last year, we had huge celebrations when we learnt that our efforts had helped this factory to reach a new milestone. God Bless Dr. Mahtani!”

 Though Zambia Reports continues to write rubbish against the former Chairman Finance Bank Zambia, the locals are well aware of the true facts and have come out to support a person who has given them the opportunity to have a better lifestyle and contribute towards the development of Zambia. This is why he is regarded as one of the most influential people in Zambia.

Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies, Dr. Rajan Mahtani defamed

The Chairman of Mahtani Group of Companies, Dr. Rajan Mahtani has been defamed by Zambia Reports on account of being involved in secretly funding the election campaign of United Party for National Development (UPDN). The allegation was put up because Zambia Reports is funded by the Ventriglia family, who are the minority shareholders of the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory.

The article which was published by Zambia Reports constantly talks about Dr. Mahtani had funded the UPND party with K 200, 000 along with hiring cadres to create a disturbing situation near the election booth by harassing voters and PF party members. However, the story was purely imaginative and based on the malign intent of the author. An exclusive proof is the claim of having six ‘Toyota Pajaros’. The author of the article has mentioned that Dr. Rajan Mahtani had given the cadres six Toyota Pajaro for going to the different places and harass the voters during election campaign. Nobody has ever heard of a car from the car manufacturer Toyota and moreover, the company itself is unaware of any such brand.

Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani

The claims and allegations made by the faceless author of Zambia Reports is purely based on his imagination and under the pressure of the Ventriglia family. Since, the fight for Zambezi Portland Cement Factory is going on, the Italian Mafias are looking forward to draw the attention of Dr. Rajan Mahtani as he is one of the key figures in Finsbury Investments, the owner of Zambezi Portland Cement Factory.

Conspirators have linked Dr. Mahtani and Mahtani Group of Companies to various scandals. Their objective has always remained towards achieving success by way of defaming others. The present article from Zambia Reports is no different as its main target was to cause injury to the reputation of Dr. Mahtani, rather than making sense.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani returns to Zambia, Conspirators continue to bark

As Dr. Rajan Mahtani returns to Zambia, the conspirators have once again started their shameless campaign. Fabricated stories, rumors and faceless writers continue to talk rubbish about the former Finance Bank Chairman. However, one thing which is worth noticing is the mindset of the people of Zambia.

Unlike what Zambia Reports claims, the people of Zambia and the rest of Africa are well aware of who Dr. Rajan Mahtani is. They have also realized that Zambia Reports is nothing more than a sham which is being used by the Italian Mafias (Ventriglia family) for running the defamation campaign. The objective of this campaign is to present ridiculously weak arguments and claim that their imagination is actually a part of a real life event.

Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani

Why is Dr. Rajan Mahtani being defamed?

Dr. Rajan Mahtani is a part of Finsbury Investments, who owns 58% of shares for Zambezi Portland Cement Factory. On the other hand, the Ventriglia family is the minority shareholders of the ZPC with a stake of 42%. The greed of the minority shareholders has crossed all limits and now they are looking forward to steal the ownership of the factory through bribery and conspiracy. This is why Dr. Mahtani is constantly being dragged into this defamation campaign.

The conspirators believe that, if they are able to distract Dr. Rajan Mahtani with these articles, then it would become easier for them to steal the ownership of the Zambezi Portland Cement Factory. However, they are unaware of the fact that Dr. Mahtani is a follower of Christ and abides by the truth. The people of Zambia have been witnessing his contributions for almost three decades now and with time his reputation has enhanced to a greater level. It is useless to play silly games against him as he fears nothing as long as he has the support of the locals and the blessings of Christ.

Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank have not run out of influence

Dr. Rajan Mahtani and Finance Bank have been doing well so far, but Zambia Reports has come up with a different view. Once again, some of its ‘well placed’ sources have informed ZR that Dr. Mahtani has run out of options is now looking for opportunities to rebuild his image. However, the truth is known to all and it would be feasible for ZR to talk sense (for a change!).

It is not a surprise for the people of Zambia to find such a news. Rather, it was expected from Zambia Reports to come up with such article because it was high time that they have contributed something to the defamation campaign against Dr. Rajan Mahtani. The faceless writers and imaginative sources have done well to create a story and serve the purpose of the Ventriglia family.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

Just in case, the writer of ZR have forgotten about the state of affairs in the Zambezi Portland Cement factory, it is being reminded that it was not Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank who were involved in tampering records with PACRA. It was the funding party of Zambia Reports- the Ventriglias, who were caught red-handed in the act. As evidence, one can find the complete details here.

Moreover, Dr. Rajan Lekhraj Mahtani is a respected businessman in Africa. There are a lot of people who admire him and are ready to set a rebel against the injustice which is currently going on against him. Nevertheless, he respects the law and doesn’t wants to disrupt the harmony of Africa, unlike a group of people who were deported from Africa in 2012 for the same reason.

Zambia Reports can continue with its imaginative stories as long as it wants, but the truth cannot be altered, nor can an officer be forced to tamper it. God will serve justice to Dr. Mahtani and Finance Bank sooner or later.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani has become a target for Zambia Reports

The former Finance Bank Chairman, Dr. Rajan Mahtani is currently facing attacks from Zambia Reports, a news portal run by Sakwiba Sikota in Africa. The key players to this newsgroup are the same person who have been unmasked by Dr. Mahtani in the past and includes names such as Henry Banda, Rupiah Banda and the Ventriglia family.

Why is Dr. Rajan Mahtani being targeted along with FBZ?

To sum up the actions of Zambia Reports, one can use the word ‘Revenge’.  In the past, everyone was aware of the corruption which was spread by Rupiah Banda and the Ventriglias. Right from misuse of funds to employee abuse, the Ventriglias had committed a wide range of crimes and finally it resulted in their deportation in 2012. Rupiah Banda, too, was involved on charges of corruption. Dr. Rajan Mahtani had played an important role in unmasking the culprits under both cases. This is why he has become the primary target of Zambia Reports and every single day, one can see that various articles on Zambia Reports claiming Dr. Mahtani’s involvement in certain corruption.

Dr. Rajan Mahtani

The truth is known to all. Zambians have comprehended the fact that the only agenda of Zambia Reports is to create confusion and injure the reputation of Dr. Rajan Mahtani. Right from rumors of arrest to producing fabricated materials as evidences, Zambia Reports has left no tables unturned.

In July- August 2015, Clare Locke LLP has written a letter to GoDaddy where it was specifically mentioned that its hosted website- Zambia Reports, had violated various laws and it would be justified if the hosting services of the website is withdrawn. Though an intimation from the side of GoDaddy is yet to be received, it is expected that the website is soon going to be closed down in the days to come.
