Such a huge brazen lie. Seen him board business class on the same Arik Air flight back from SA. Why do politicians lie to score points with the people? SMH.

Hes just an intelligent theive... keeping a low profile or modest lifestyle... doesnt change the fact that he ran in close circles with known embezzlers and is most definitely one himself. If he like make e open 20 orphanage homes, thief na thief any day any time
well, he was only a staffer in NTA when he started his business. So, he didn't trade with politics money. Am not saying he didn't embezzle, but I'm saying robbing the govt for the interest of the ppl is a nice incentive at this time. Since the govt don't know how to invest to provide jobs, then let someone make the move.

He is no robinhood.... he embezzled for the benefit of himself alone... telling his he flies economy is B.S ( and not to mention, a LIE). When he does sumfin worthwhile like donate his entire earnings as a senator to charity then he wud has acquired bragging rights. Till then he shud just shut up and let Naija hear words that actually sound sensible

I have never flown first class in my life” – Silverbird Boss Ben Murray Bruce says

Chairman of Silverbird Group and Senator-Elect Mr. Ben Murray Bruce has revealed that he has never flown in first class before despite his wealth.

Speaking at the Man of the Year Award in Lagos last night, May 3, 2015, the Silverbird boss also said he has not stayed at an hotel over $300 per night. "I have never flown first class in my life. Our leaders must be accountable, I have never stayed in a hotel that’s more than 300 dollars a night, it doesn’t make sense to lodge in a 4000 dollar hotel, not because I can’t afford it, but because if I think of the masses" he said.

"I run a company and at the end of the month I have to make payroll, so I can’t justify it, our politicians must imbibe this attitude as well. Nigeria is too poor for our leaders to act like multi-billionaires, and Nigeria is too rich for our people to be poor" he further stated.

Ben Murray Bruce won the senatorial in 2015

Crook.

I think we need to give kudos to this man for been real and sincere. Common knowledge for start-up entrepreneurs on how to utilize their money. Life is this simple if we can learn from what other have achieved and how they got there. Warren Buffet is another good example to learn from too.

I like Ben Bruce (he has created employment for hundreds of people)
But I dislike and hate the idea of selecting only government officials and political opportunists/apologists as the so called ''man of the year''. It does not make sense. When last did Silverbirds select a poor citizen as ''man of the year? NEVER. It is either one governor, minister, head of govt agency, a politician etc.
That shows the laziness that goes into that award and their bias for only well known faces in the political arena.
A woman working at the airport just found and returned a whopping N12m to the owner......Silverbirds does not see that kind of person to nominate as man of the year, but corrupt politicians!

what's my fuss with that? Get my point? I never believed such lie, if u read my comment properly you could have understood the point I made. I don't have a problem with flying first class. I mean, granted the privileges, who wouldn't? My point is about embezzlement and siphonage of state funds to foreign accounts. Imagine if all our loots were invested home, just imagine! Ben Bruce is indeed an inspirational character in our political circle. You may argue that he gets itchy fingers on the internet, but in reality he's a visioner and a getter. Name it, Miss world, MBGN, Silverbird etc. Do you realize how many citizens silverbird alone takes off the market? Do you imagine the tax revenue made from that business alone? Just imagine Atiku, OBJ and other national Treasury thieves casting their loots into our economy. Have a chill on Bruce, bro! If for anything, Duff your hat and leggo
