TheGoodJoe:


How do you know he was not a Billionaire?

BiafranNigerian:
My Oh my,...What difference does it make ? I thought you meant he became billionaire by virtue of his career as a banker. The answer is NO, he cashed in as a politician. They are all the same, there is no Abraham Lincoln in Nigeria, not yet.

TheGoodJoe:


Do you know how many big deals go on everyday in Banks. Do you know account Managers and Bank Managers get percentages in a lot of this deals?

BiafranNigerian:


Yes, I know the deals going on in the banks, I am very much closer to bankers and I have more banker associates and friends than in any other fields and Udom was never privy to such deals, I know the movers and shakers of Zenith Bank, Udom is was built for banking, and his moment came when Akpabio made him supervise his personal finances and thereafter state finances. Its all in the politics of things. His break happened in and around politics and politicians.

TheGoodJoe:


I also believe he cashed in as a Politician who knew his way around the banking World. Both home and abroad. What I am saying is that he does not need to divert Government funds today to build that house.

TheGoodJoe:


I tire. Udom Emmanuel was a Billionaire long before he became Governor. He completed this house fast because he is now closer to home.

TheGoodJoe:


I think we are on the same page. I was actually focusing on the headline of the article which showed the House after three months as a Governor. The Money was already there before he took that seat.

BiafranNigerian:


You are defending the indefensible here, Salaries of Zenith Bank ED isnt enough to carry out such expense within the time-frame. The fact remains that the money is Akwa Ibom people's money being shared. The Governor was secretary of State before his present portfolio, so the money isnt from his salary as Zenith ED, but MUST be from his proceeds from the sharing they have been making in that government house from the time he came politically motivated.

Let me make it abundantly clear; What is the relationship between Senator Akpabio and Udom; The answer is in plain site, Udom is to Akpabio what Ambody is to Tinubu, these are finance technocrat who helped them move money to safe heavens, it is only natural to put your 'boy' back in power to continue to clandestine games of chess. Stop defending these people based on emotional bias, I love them both, cos I have no capacity to hate, but If I was to prosecute, I will send people to jail based on circumstantial evidences, because you can hardly catch a smooth thief even when you follow the money, I will jail them circumstantially one after the other and heavens will not fall, and if heaven does fall, hell will not.

saintkeppy:
. Yes he is a financial expert, if you find urself in the banking sector, you can as well devise means of making money(investment) legitimately within the armbit of the law in addition to a good salary scale worthy of ED in a highly reputable commercial Bank such as Zenith. Sharing money in the Govt. House cannot be ruled out completely though & I'm not defending per say or you want to tell me that his salaries are not part of the expenses, u never can tell bro' my point of argument is the time frame to complete such edifice as reported by mr.blogger as if it was a fire-bridgate approach thereby making His Excellency, Gov.Udom Emmanuel appear over-desparate in embezzlin'State funds.. So therefore i stand to be corrected.

BiafranNigerian:
I personally hate it when people use titles like "His Excellency". Which other countries use such word to address these looters ? We must learn to call these people by their first names.

subterfuge:
FISHY BRAIN DOUNTING THOMASSES.
YOU WILL SOON DOUBT EVEN YORK OWN NAMESAKE.
AKPABIO TOLD UDOM TO RUSH THE BUILDING SO AS NOT TO LOOSE EVERY THING, BEFORE THE SUPREME COURT SAVED UDOM FROM BRING SACKED.
NOW HE WILL BUILD MANY OTHERS AND BUY SOME MORE HOUSES IN LAGOS, ABUJA AND ABROAD
