Maybe more if God is willing.

Ikanium,you've not yet replied me,how do i get it across to you

kulyie: Ikanium,you've not yet replied me,how do i get it across to you

were do u stay sir.....

It really becomes difficult to help this guy after so much inconsistency/conflicting reports about himself. Sometime ago I busted a fraudster on this forum : https://www.nairaland.com/1114415/what-when-dead-broke#13121054

However this may not be a scam but it could also be. President Obama of the USA once advised youths to be very careful with what they post on the internet because it may haunt them in future.

The best way (in my opinion) to help this guy (hope he is not a fraud) is to find someone who could actually go to the school to pay directly into the school's bank account so that he does not have access to the school fees. This should not stop him from receiving further aid in future if he is genuine.

@OP kindly give details of your school's bank account.

Ikanium: as soon as i have got a little money on hand i shall do that soonest... Thank u sir

You don't need money to open a GTB account.
Find the nearest branch and do so asap!

Ikanium: were do u stay sir.....

ogun state,so how do i get it,at least preferably 1st week next year

slimyem: You don't need money to open a GTB account.

Ikani if this is possible, you should have already been on top of this.

i haven't figure anything out here,still folling

holyvirgin: SMH! So pathetic

gbam!!


hell, even we americans are now scared to help each other lol.
the homeless man with the "help" sign in rain, sunny weather, or snow
looking pitiful and in the end uses the money given to buy beer is a
classic example!

interesting conversations on this thread..

*reads*

Ikanium! Still waiting o.you've not yet got back to me Ikanium! Still waiting o.you've not yet got back to me

for those who asked me to get an account of my own i have done that... Account name: Omaga Ikani Stephen, account number: 1780001026949 Eco bank... thank you all

kulyie: Ikanium! Still waiting o.you've not yet got back to me Ikanium! Still waiting o.you've not yet got back to me

we will figure that out soon sir..... When i get to kogi but i am in kaduna now Ogun is very far from here..

Ikanium: for those who asked me to get an account of my own i have done that... Account name: Omaga Ikani Stephen, account number: 1780001026949 Eco bank... thank you all

This at least shows you're serious. Well done.

When I get off work I'll send it via Western Union.

SAFO: I believe you Ikani, if you can establish a valid account in your own name, I'll be willing to send at least $20.

Account name: Omaga Ikani Stephen, account number: 1780001026949 Eco bank... thank you sir

Nice move...

tho I don't know any ecobank branch around me

Ikanium: for those who asked me to get an account of my own i have done that... Account name: Omaga Ikani Stephen, account number: 1780001026949 Eco bank... thank you all

You did not give us your school's account bank details irrespective of this new account that is supposed to be ten (10) digits.
Kindly clarify this discrepancy once again. In which branch of Ecobank was this account opened and was the account opened today.

i had this account long before now but i had abandoned it and din't use it for a long time now i went to the bank today to open a new one but the customer care told me i can still use this one...

I know what it is to be poor and confused. I can feel your pains if really you are genuine but your inconsistency is a let down and turnoff. You are not giving us benefit of doubt here.

Get back to the bank and ask for your new account number (its now ten digits). This old number won't fly and you are yet to provide your school's bank account details. Someone may just decide to pay your school fees directly into your school's bank account and send the teller/deposit slip to you to make it available to your school authority as evidence of payment.

However I am not yet fully convinced about your story but I will still look into your case.

Ikani how far you na? Why so much story here and there? You are explaining too much for something so little.....People on nairaland are actually People...with feelings and human sympathies and some are willing to help...#1000 from 40 people can easily do the trick because this site gets more tha 500,000 hits a day...some people here can even pay the 40k straight...my advice to you is 1)CALM DOWN because God is in control...2)Get an account with a bank that is close to you and with the 10 digit number...If possible get a student account...3)Remember to thank those that put in money for you...It is well

@op I guess any bank would do since you use a unify bank account
(The acct has no nAme)






This guy might be telling the truth oo

Ikanium: we will figure that out soon sir..... When i get to kogi but i am in kaduna now Ogun is very far from here..

ok no problem,whenever you are settled,get back to me on nairaland here so ill fix some provisions and foodstuffs that can still keep you till you are fully settled.i wish you were based in ogun,you could have easily come to my office and help settle your issues and also get some of my colleagues to make you feel settled,but whenever other nairalanders have helped you in your school fees,let me know,hun? Just be calm,dont worry,you will be an undergraduate.God will raise genuine helpers for you in jesus name

@ikanium, I have followed this thread closely as I really want to help you but there are quite a few inconsistencies here and there. But I guess no one is above mistakes and if you are indeed as desperate as you make out to be then perhaps you are nervous. Post the bank details for your school and what information needs to be included as reference and I will pay the fees. I will also give you a token to help get to and settle down in school. Other people have indicated their willingness to help and I guess we can all pay that into your personal account. If the fees are paid directly, I think people will feel more comfortable helping out. Thanks to kulyie who has kindly agreed to help with foodstuffs? @kulyie, are you able to package the foodstuffs and send it by local transport to where he is? That way it saves him travelling all the way to you.

So the account number is not valid? I'm a little bit confused

SAFO: So the account number is not valid? I'm a little bit confused

Hi SAFO, Nigerian banks have recently implemented a new bank account format so I think his is still the old format which would make sense if the account is old as he has indicated.

Okay that makes more sense. It did have a red flag but I don't see how he could have benefited if the account didn't exist at all.

It's good to see so many people are willing to help, this is what life is all about.

God bless you.
