Same sandals Moses wear God take provoke when he see Moses for holy ground take say “Moses, comot that thing you carry enter holy ground, no talk, just comot am .”

Some of his mates are still in their throw back looks..

Pray for grace then maintain it with consistency and discipline.

There is always a stroy to tell after every successful man through the rough road they ride to the top.

True. There's even a car in the background. Nevertheless, man has done well for himself.

This is why you can't be doing Yahoo or cutting soap.

You need patience and hard work and with time things will change for good.

I have said it, no money ritual or soap cutting or Yahoo can make you the richest, why will i do it

Guy I fear you ooo. But you spoke the truth though. Reminds me of Davido talking about his poverty travails just to trend. Even poverty was not happy about the character assassination.

Las las some people are born to make it. By the grace of God I am one of those...

Nothing poor about the first picture except say the photograph has been through wear and tear.

The men of yore days were quite the peacocks, even more than men of contemporary times. That open shirt style is so segzy

What's the purpose of this rubbish?

Elumelu family get money normally o

Nice one... despise not the days of little beginnings...

God is good

What an irony

Nigerian Jack Ma

Success is inevitable once you are determined and persistent. Although it may seem impossible at first, DON'T GIVE UP.

Honestly... One just needs to be humble to God... To think that elumelu's total wealth is offering change of someone like Jeff Bezos, and to think my own shikini money na Akara change for elemelu.......

You are correct. He looks ok in that picture. Doesn't look like he was hungry or anything like that
