http://www.nbc4.com/news/16166924/detail.html


WASHINGTON -- The owner of a multimillion-dollar home on Foxhall Road in northwest D.C. was evicted on Monday.

The homeowner, Oladipo Aina, is a Nigerian-born CEO of a company called "The Potentional Millionaires Investment Club International." His business card says he is a foreclosure specialist.

Workers emptied the contents of the five-bedroom, 5,000-square foot home onto the sidewalk Monday.

Federal marshals looked on as two Rolls Royces were towed from the driveway.

"I am not afraid," Aina said.

Bank records show Aina and his associates in October were served with a 30-day notice to quit and vacate because another owner had purchased the home in a foreclosure sale.

"They are lying," Aina said.

Chairs, furniture and bags of personal effects took up nearly half a city block, causing people who live in the neighborhood to stop and stare.


"It's pretty crazy, actually," said neighbor Marissa Rauch. "It shows you it can happen anywhere."

"We never see anything like this," said neighbor Patti Harburger. "But people are always curious about that house because the blinds are always down. We never see people going in and out."

Aina has 24 hours to move his possessions. He said he's been railroaded.

"I have 30,000 acres of emerald mines worth billions," he said. He said the mines are located in Zambia.

Aina said he will move into an $8 million home in McLean as soon as he can get the people living there to move out.

he he he he he he. 

A fool and his money are soon parted.  Now let me go dig up and see what the rational world thinks about this clown.

The story of the "Village Millionaire and His Wheelbarrow"!

Kudos, on the poster that picked up on the typos.

I have to agree with the Nigerian poster that claims that some ruin it for other more deserved hard working Nigerians. It happens in every social ethnic community. One bad apple, spoils the bunch.

As far as those Rolls in his driveway-the motor doesn't even turn over. He's the King of Facades.

SHHHH, don't tell anyone, but he's been trying to refinance his home since last summer. He can't produce docs to fulfill the income requirement.

He then tried to purchase a home (this is where I met him) to flip and make profit to pay his bills, but it didn't work out either. Again, the problem with documentation. This is what he's been doing since October, trying to purchase home to flip them, but nothing has come his way. I gave up as soon as I smelled SCAM! I saw his supposed Mclean house, it's empty! he was trying to purchase it, but no deal.

I can't believe I'm related to so many people in the DC Area, so I guess I have to split my inheritence with you guys, damn, weel since "mine" (no pun intended) was supposed to be $500 million and I've seen by my count three other people related to my uncle, I guess we'll split down $125 million each, did the barrister tell you about the Heineke Lottery we won b/c I'm definitely not splitting that.

By the way in DC once the stuff hits the street anyone can have it! Let's go shopping, and get to know some long lost relatives! It about time we scam the Nigerians instead! 

Wonderful! Useless people!  Always disgracing themselves about. See the old goat's mouth like mines in Zambia and gold in Zimbabwe.  Shameless thing. At his age, others are grandfathers.  He is still with "girlfriend"!  Am I surprised, his brother was the ex-president of Nigeria.  OBJ the ape!

His business card says he is a foreclosure specialist! OMG, I feel sorry for anyone who he attempted to help. How in the world can you get a notice to quit and vacate back in Oct. of 2007 and not expect to find you belongings on the street. He's just lucky he didn't end up with his thing out on the snow cover streets.
If he really had a 30,000 acres of emerald mines he would have been able to pay his mortgage. If he had a $8 million home in McLean he should have been working on getting the people out back in Oct when he received his eviction notice. He had seven months to move out without all this embarrassment what was the problem?

When I first saw this story, I laughed. I don't normally laugh at peoples misfortune but this guy is really off his rocker. I wouldn't be surprised if he was behind some of those scamming e-mail that I get in the yahoo mail.

This guy tried to con me about 20 years. ago. He had hundreds, if not thousands, of books piled up to the ceiling all over his DC rowhome (probably the same books JingleBulls saw now). I remembered him when I saw the news story because I had never met anyone else who talks about themselves in the third person - Aina will make you rich; Aina has read every one of these books (even though the books were in English and he could hardly speak or read English back then). There was a news story on TV about him back then about a month after I met him. DC told him to stop taking people's money. Channel 4 should check their archives. I'm surprised DC doesn't file charges against him if he's still doing it. I'm glad I didn't give him any money.

'Aina has 24 hours to move his positions" ("possessions" not positions).
This is some top-notch reporting.
You are right Mike who wrote such a story line with sooooooooooo many errors and who got paid for such? To boot my previous complaint was removed. Gee by who?

Sounds like the same house, and I agree Channel 4 should investigate him.

The picture I saw here does not look like a house on Foxhall Road NW. I am a frequent pedestrian. I think it is a house in the Foxhall Crescent Development

I often walk on Foxhall Road and the house in the picture does not look like one. Foxhall Crescents is often mistaken for Foxhall Road.

"emerald mines" in Africa. sounds like that infamous Nigerian scam that was going on over the last few years. Just anothr "victom" of the credit crunch or someone who lived beyond his income. There are too many people who live way beyond their income on an unseen potential to impress their family and friends. That 8 million house may face the same fate.

<quoted text> Loads of good? OK please go back.
Jesse,
Your xenophonia makes me cringe. Or are you just downright racist? Has Mr Aina been accused of a crime? I admit he sounds quite questionable but he's already been tried and convicted in the court of public opinion because he happens to be Nigeria. Jesse, myopia/ignorance like you and several others on this blog have exhibited is precisely the sort of thing Americans rail against when they hear that they are widely perceived by the rest of the world to be arrogant bullies who like to tell everyone else how to run their affairs. Having had the priviledge to live and work in America (legally) for the past 6 years I know you guys do not speak for most Americans. We cannot afford to malign or write off an entire nation or race of people. Only unintelligent people do that. I'd be happy to introduce you to several decent, hardworking and honest Nigerians.

I’m writing particularly in response to Jesse (United States) who stated that “nothing good comes out of Nigeria”. Quite frankly, such myopic statements really disgust me. I FYI, there are a lot of successful Nigerians with a global footprint. For example, the current Managing Director of the World Bank – Ms Okonjo-Iweala is a Nigerian so also is Dr. Phillip Emegwali who pretty much ‘fathered’ the internet. I could go on and on with more examples but I am sure you get the point.
After all, not a day goes by that I do not hear some horrible news about either an American parent taking their own kids lives or an American child shooting up dozens in schools. Is that to say that nothing good comes out of the United States? So please let’s refrain from making ill-stated judgments about an entire country based solely on the inappropriate acts of a single individual.
And yes, I am a VERY PROUD NIGERIAN

please don't never bring up Emeagwali. He is a fraud and did not 

Proud Nigerian ko, Proud Nigerian ni.  After all said and done, only a bunch of noise as usual.  See an old man in America continuing 419 with grey hair between the crack of his butts.  Shameless things! No shame at all!

I wonder who gave this old cargo visa?  The beauty of America.  Every riff raff can come over to pose as a wheelbarrow-pushing millionaire!!!

Jesse, you may be right, the guy might be a lying swindler, but using the act of 1 person sample, to predict the character of 120 million population is being ignorant. Yes I am a Nigerian and I make honest living here in USA.
About the inheritance letter, plane crash, gold/diamond mine letters/emails etc I do get those too, I am not just greedy to try to reap from where I did not sow.

We need to slow down and stop pointing at Nigerians. This is a very sad event and it could happen to anyone; from UK, Mexico, Utah or even DC.
I think we should stop behaving like bunch of uninformed citizens and realize that bad fruits are from everywhere.
This has nothing to do with being a Nigerian.

Jeez -- and here i can't hardly owe mh phone bill for over 2 months w/out robbing peter to pay paul; oh well, good ol US. of A -- getting the tired the poorl the restless yearning to breathe free, doo bee doo bee dooo lolololol -- Hey wonder what shelter HE's stayin in?

The only reason NIGERIAN came up was because it was a Nigerian who got evicted; and if i had diamond and emerald mines i sure wouldn't have my stuff on the sidewalk; he should have kept his mouth shut because that certainly was no time to be bragging about all u got when your aszzs is being set out on the street! Made himself look stupid in front of his fellow countrymen and i am sure they aint rushing up in his rich neighborhood with a basketfull of money to help a 'brotha' out! God Bless The Child That's Got His Own!(Billie Holiday and probably he Bible) Chill sweetie!

  Nigerians Marrying Nigerians Raised In The Us
« on: Today at 03:13:59 AM » 

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
How do people feel about a Nigerian who has practically lived here all of their lives dating/marrying a Nigerian new to American culture? Practically dating an American? That is the situation I am in now. I have lived in the US since I was 2.We are getting married next year and although my parents raised me well (cooking, morals, etc.) I know that this can be one of the hardest things to deal with culturally, a lot is viewed differently by both of us, It took us 3 years to overcome those and I think it will be interesting to hear what others think and feel. Thanks!!!!!!!

Ask your black American sisters to give you first hand experiences!   Since you have lived in the US since age 2, you are a black American.


As for marrying a Nigerian, the experiences are out there for you to see.  Goodluck with your marriage!
