50calibre: I actually watched her pitch when it was aired on BBC, I couldn't believe it. MKO who was stinkinly wealthy, well such is life

Great Ideas are a dime a dozen, if you do not have the funds or the technical manpower to execute them, then your great idea does not count for shit. Without her family's funds (bear in mind MKO had several children, only God knows how much eventually filtered to her and her siblings), she probably would not have been able to execute this project to the stage that she has. She probably would not have had the good education to see her become a Barrister, which by itself pays very very well in the UK, she would not have been able to take the decision to quit paid employment to pursuer her entreprenurial dreams. And even if she had a billion pounds backing her financially, this money alone still wouldnt be able to provide her the coverage that the BBC's Dragons Den has, and we wouldnt be here discussing the

I'm highly impressed with what this young lady is doing irrespective of her financial background and she refused to believe in her family fortune. This is a great idea. To some of you "haters", my word to you is that remain here as a commentator and Dupsy will be going to world to make her goodies and sound name.

I simply love this lady and don't get my intention twisted. She has got guts, she is smart, brimming in ideas and above all ambitious.. She is not looking lazy as most folks who were born into wealth will look. She knew life wasn't fair, her dad was murdered and the family wealth unevenly distributed so she's taking the bull by the horn and calving her on niche.. I wish you well Dupsy

ndu_chucks: After Abiola raked in billions from the ITT scheme without giving us anything in return. One would think he would have made provisions for all his children so that seed money, as his daughter is making a pitch for here, should not be a problem for anyone of his children. Dan Barawo


Abiola,s wealth died with him,and it is a classic example of what happens to ill gotten wealth. It withers away like grass for lack of strong roots..

When I saw the topic I quickly rushed to open it because I thought she was an INVESTOR
on the show and my mind was set that way.

Now, that it is different, I have no comment

26,000,000 naira and Abiola I'm not sure now.
In short, I'm a bit confused now.
Initially I thought people were talking about 260 Billion Naira!

Can someone tell me why she cannot be on the other-side

Someone mentioned here that gej could be spending up to 50.000 pounds on food a day at this austre time that millions of nigerians are starving. If that is true,then that guy is like a rat gradually chewing away bags of grain in the barn with no care in the world whether the farmer incures loss or not.

What he is doing is outrageous and nigerians should cry blood against evil and wasteful leaders like him.

For how long can this korokoro stealng by the criminals called leaders in nigeria continues?

What most people do not understand is that majority of people that go on dragons den dont go to beg for money. Obviously, there are several ways that she could have raised triple that amount without help from any individual. Getting one of those guys as a business partner is far worth more than £1m. What that business will generate in one month with Peter Jones as a "partner" will be 50 times greater than what she will make working alone for 5 years. She wasnt begging for money... far from it.

Can you INVEST EVEN N5,000 (NAIRA) in your or anyone's idea or BUSINESS? This lady was an EMPLOYED BARRISTER, the business had already taken off BEFORE THIS PITCH or you found it difficult to understand her accent?

The reason why people like me pay our bills on time is because 'person de pass don't be silly!'
You cannot expect me to go and present in Dragon's Den for 26 million naira equity in my company.

Some of us have seen money and it's vanity.
Self respect is better than anything in this world.

She is supposed to be on the other-side
She has seen money and if she wants any of those investors she can get them anytime to invest in her ideas!

To be honest, I will not do it!
I will pay for advert like anyone else.
Finally, it's a free world and people should do whatever is legal that makes them happy!
