choi...why do people still hold physical cash when the world is going cashless

He need to leave that environment. Three kidnappings in the family and yet he still keeps plenty cash at home. I am not understanding oo

only a very foolish and clueless man would have such amount of cash in their house.... hope he learned a valuable lesson!

Probably a good thing he had all that cash at home. With Nigerians being as wicked and demonic as they are, those robbers would have probably killed his wife out of anger if they had not found any money

mr IBU didn't act too well, keeping #14.3m at home is not a good idea. if you think you don't think of robbers, fire can beak out at anytime. SARS! Instead of maltreating innocent souls, this is another cheap opportunity to show us why you shouldn't be scraped.

Liar, Mr Ibu,! .... But if it's true that such amount was carted away by your armed robbers, then you should be arrested by EFCC for holding such a large amount in physical cash in your house... But I still doubt it if u have up to dat in your house

Those robbers deserve to be shot dead at sight. That's the problem of this country. They knew they wanted to flex big money, why couldn't they target all those whistle-blower money hoarders in their Ikoyi mansions?! Instead of terrorizing poor Ibu who hustled his way to acquire the little he has today? That's why I don't sympathize when criminals get lynched atimes.

Anyhow, Ibu should either relocate or do something drastic fast because the incidences at getting too many for comfort.

How much does he have that criminals wouldn't let him rest. Lucky Dube comes to mind. He should everything posible to securitize his family's life for goodness sake. What if they also molested the woman in his absence, then she would have to deal with that trauma for life. Who says they're not even feeling traumatized now. Thing even looks like inside job sef!

Someone "Whistleblew" to the robbers

Who keeps that amount of cash in his house?
