These are the bad belle people paddy Adenuga was talking about.
The type of people we go to church to cast and bind.

And Kano state still has the highest number of beggars in the zoo.Nonsense!
paymentvoucher:
As long as the CABAL are still in power, Dangotte will continue to win it back to back

Right now, everything works in favour of Dangotte

Nigeria is really a comic relief.

[b]Let me educate you. A created thing can't give himself purpose, by theory of being a creature. Success is not measured by achievement of dreams, it is measured by fulfillment of purpose. To be achiever and be successful are not the same thing. Bill gate, Mark, Dangote, Most of them on that list are achievers. Sucessful men on earth are those turning many to righteousness. Success is defined by two reasons 1. Man school of thought 2. God's school of thought Remember the rich man in Luke, the world called him a rich man, but God sees him as a fool.. What you can do is the ability given to you by God to be successful in your means for attaining to the end.
A man's end is simply what he was created to be. Man at its best equals to vanity. Philantropism does not lead to heaven, righteousness does. Are you living for yourself
like the rich fool did or God's purpose for you. With your wealth do you support the gospel to be preached, are you a soul winner, are you a light in the darkness. [/b]

trace the success of billioner around the world and find out that it is only Nigerian billioner that are different , bill gate is an inventor , Zuckerberg is an inventor , buffet is an investor that started with 12 dollars , in South Africa most of their millioners are into mining that started with nothing, come to nigeria , alakija received an oil well worth billions with faith and became a billioner , adenuga was a taxi driver in the usa came back to nigeria after his studies and suddenly buys glo licence worth more than 10 billion naira , dangote his grand father gave him 350 thousand naira not in 1910 or 1960 but 1980s suddenly he started to build industries and import equipment worth billions , they converted the money in their mind into their account , that is why developed men are calling us shithole country , they see us as senseless people , ty Danjuma received an oil well licence with faith which is just a peper , he did not even care to read what was written in the papers or go see the place , he just called one white man and sold the papper for 500 million dollars then tomorrow he will come to drag with real billioner that are cracking their senses to build or make out something

So she is in charge of Nigeria Delta Development Fund?

I knew someone was going to bring up this line. "Niger Delta leaders should be blamed" talk. Don't forget that you don't put a goat and a yam together. Since our politicians are thieves and greedy men what any well meaning investor should do is to give most of these dividends straight to the people by giving them good infrastructures and education.

In her case she got the oil well by just being a stylist to IBB's wife. So should appreciate God by helping the host communities.

Net worth of Dangote keeps dropping but he is still topping the list.
The Sawiris are the richest family in Africa.
What suprise me is that, they are coptic Christians.
Christians making lot of Money in Egypt populated by Muslims. The head of the family, Onsi must be a smart man to be able to survive with religion discrimination. Two of his three children are on the list.
I believe Patrice motsepe the richest man in South Africa will rise in wealth in the next coming years.
His inlaw Cyril Rhamaphosa(A millionaire) is now the new president of South Africa. The will make lot of money together same way Jacob Zuma did with the Gupta brothers.
The man I respect the most on the list is Sir Strive Masiyiwa. A Christian. Very humble. He takes time to converse with the youth inspite of his busy schedules. He listens to all.
