50calibre: I actually watched her pitch when it was aired on BBC, I couldn't believe it. MKO who was stinkinly wealthy, well such is life Great Ideas are a dime a dozen, if you do not have the funds or the technical manpower to execute them, then your great idea does not count for shit. Without her family's funds (bear in mind MKO had several children, only God knows how much eventually filtered to her and her siblings), she probably would not have been able to execute this project to the stage that she has. She probably would not have had the good education to see her become a Barrister, which by itself pays very very well in the UK, she would not have been able to take the decision to quit paid employment to pursuer her entreprenurial dreams. And even if she had a billion pounds backing her financially, this money alone still wouldnt be able to provide her the coverage that the BBC's Dragons Den has, and we wouldnt be here discussing the 5 Likes |

This is for discerning minds please, we know there are a lot of other kinds on the forum Read the report in Ham & High online here and it was also reported by graziadaily.co.uk read it here, its a short read. This Nigerian girl is doing good stuff out there and I can't for the life of me figure out how the conversation on this topic turns out like this? Is this how sick some of us really are as people? Shey we are beginning to understand the extent of the work that needs to be done? It gets worse by the year and the sooner we act the better for our future. PS: And she won a £100,000 investment i.e ₦26 million how cool is that for anyone to have that invested in your own entrepreneurial idea, which you're passionate about Haters sha gon' hate sha 5 Likes |

I'm highly impressed with what this young lady is doing irrespective of her financial background and she refused to believe in her family fortune. This is a great idea. To some of you "haters", my word to you is that remain here as a commentator and Dupsy will be going to world to make her goodies and sound name. 2 Likes |

I simply love this lady and don't get my intention twisted. She has got guts, she is smart, brimming in ideas and above all ambitious.. She is not looking lazy as most folks who were born into wealth will look. She knew life wasn't fair, her dad was murdered and the family wealth unevenly distributed so she's taking the bull by the horn and calving her on niche.. I wish you well Dupsy 2 Likes |

ndu_chucks: After Abiola raked in billions from the ITT scheme without giving us anything in return. One would think he would have made provisions for all his children so that seed money, as his daughter is making a pitch for here, should not be a problem for anyone of his children. Dan Barawo Abiola,s wealth died with him,and it is a classic example of what happens to ill gotten wealth. It withers away like grass for lack of strong roots.. 1 Like |

Walai! When I saw the topic I quickly rushed to open it because I thought she was an INVESTOR on the show and my mind was set that way. Now, that it is different, I have no comment 26,000,000 naira and Abiola I'm not sure now. In short, I'm a bit confused now. Initially I thought people were talking about 260 Billion Naira! Can someone tell me why she cannot be on the other-side |

Someone mentioned here that gej could be spending up to 50.000 pounds on food a day at this austre time that millions of nigerians are starving. If that is true,then that guy is like a rat gradually chewing away bags of grain in the barn with no care in the world whether the farmer incures loss or not. What he is doing is outrageous and nigerians should cry blood against evil and wasteful leaders like him. For how long can this korokoro stealng by the criminals called leaders in nigeria continues? 1 Like |

What most people do not understand is that majority of people that go on dragons den dont go to beg for money. Obviously, there are several ways that she could have raised triple that amount without help from any individual. Getting one of those guys as a business partner is far worth more than £1m. What that business will generate in one month with Peter Jones as a "partner" will be 50 times greater than what she will make working alone for 5 years. She wasnt begging for money... far from it. |

dor75: I think they don't even read nor listen(watch).They just jump into conclusion.You are telling a Nigerian youth what you know(involved in), before you even finish they interrupt and tell you the wrong stuffs with all confidence. Now,in this case the OP did not write anything that warranted the bashing he or she is getting. If they had watch the Video they would not have bashed Dupsy or her late dad. |

1forall: The reason why people like me pay our bills on time is because 'person de pass don't be silly!' You cannot expect me to go and present in Dragon's Den for 26 million naira equity in my company. Some of us have seen money and it's vanity. Self respect is better than anything in this world. She is supposed to be on the other-side She has seen money and if she wants any of those investors she can get them anytime to invest in her ideas! To be honest, I will not do it! I will pay for advert like anyone else. Finally, it's a free world and people should do whatever is legal that makes them happy! 1 Like |
