Abeg help me ask the guy well. I no understand him own pain.

Cool story. Don't be surprised that the so-called "colonel" is a bloody scammer or gay love-vendor, brandishing fake complimentary cards to ensnare mugus in shadowy zones like clubs. Otherwise I wonder what he had to gain by dashing after you into the bathroom to 'introduce' himself. Them full Abuja.

Too many fake people in this Abuja, and in my short but intense period here, I've encountered lot's of them. I can smell them from a mile away. They're everywhere, and they put up all kinds of appearances.

You could see one idiot driving a 2018 tinted Prado with police orderly, wearing a well-starched caftan, but he's still a fake ass vulture looking for who to prey on.

I've come to realise that the real oga nla 'helpers' in this Abuja are often hiding in plain sight, devoid of flash and pizzazz.

If you're a helper seeker, your best bet is to wear a smile and be courteous/friendly with everyone you encounter, especially those who seem 'ordinary'. Your odds are higher that way.

I got a call from one Lateef to make a reservation for 3nights because I work in a resort. When I got the call, I took the reservation and the man gave the reservation name as Lateef. He booked 2rooms.

We spoke a couple of time before his arrival date because he always had questions to ask.

Then he checked in with his family......i couldn't confirm his payment in time so I told him I wouldn't check him in to the room until a notification of payment is received. He was calm.....He understood, together with his family, he sat at the Resturant waiting.

Then payment was received and i checked him in......he was smiling all through.

Then my manager saw him and said....."do you want to tell me you don't know that man" i was like " no ma" She said " that's lateef, moshood abiola's first son..........okay, kuku kee me. And ofcos he tipped me enough to make me smile.

It was the highest form of humility I came across. Other experiences I had , I knew who they were before meeting them.

Confirm alert before you part with anything o. Goods or services. That is the rule of business.

Even if he is a governor.

Government dey owe sef.

No goose pimples anymore.

hahahaha, funny you.

Yea that's true. The nouveau rich or new money guys can make serious noise.
The rich are silent and hide themselves. Actually that's my modus operandi now. Hide yourself very well and live simple

There's a saying- "it's the fruit who hides itself that will grow to it's full size and even beyond. The one who exposes its freshness will quickly be plucked and devoured."

DavidEsq:

My question is a reality check but u had a chance to "clear" my "doubt" but u "missed" the opportunity.

Opportunity to become rich ?

Village people at work

he could still b a scammer

MissJoy29:
At least the laughter fest programme I missed on the radio this evening no pain me much. I don laugh here tire!

So, there was this veeeeeeey rich uncle who works with one of the popular banks that I was close to. He was so kind & highly generous until I found out exactly what he wanted from me. But before I did, there was a time when he was inviting me over to his place for the weekend. And I was kinda stuck in the village(after the yuletide) because I was waiting for another uncle I normally go back with to Lagos because of my loads. Uncle A was so impatient that he was giving me all sorts of ideas to ditch uncle B & come back. I was pleading with him. It was necessary I stayed & I had to come back with the loads. He said I could leave it with uncle B and fly out. I told him I won't be comfortable leaving my bags with uncle B as I had some contrabands in the bag. What he said next & my question to him was what led me to type this. Now, I knew this man was rich. But what I never knew was how rich & highly influential he was. So he said, "how about I arrange for one of our regional managers to take your load to Lagos with a hilux while you fly down? I then asked him , "ah ah, are you higher than a regional manager? He laughed. He then said, "I can tell all the regional managers in .........bank to come to your father's house & prostrate before him."

My eyes cleared! I became humble and held him in high regard. He was the most down-to-earth wealthy and influential man I have ever seen!

so is this ur uncle the type of uncle the type of uncle i am thinking abtt or the kind of uncle i'm thinking about cos u havnt told us wat he called u for

Your head dey there. Wisdom has taught me that when you hide yourself, you protect yourself from attacks and you live very peaceful life.

djon78:
But why will you look down on anybody. That's gross. I personally greet anybody even gate man, because you are not meant to look down on any human being created by God.


Honestly it is poor people that look down on people or people with small money.
I have been privileged to meet and associate with the extremely wealthy and I can tell you, the rich don't make noise. They are very simple.

Even there children. I schooled overseas with children of some of the wealthiest Nigerians. Governor's, ministers, ambassadors etc. They don't make noise. There was this Hausa boy Ahmed that was in my class then. I used to help him out with assignment, later I found out his dad was former NNPC MD. Many others I can't mention here.

These my experiences made me to take life easy and simple. I don't believe in making noise. Live life as simple as possible.

People who puff up like balloon. They think there is something on earth to brag about.

Fidelismaria:


Same thing applies to nairaland

Don't insult people because you're on a faceless forum

You never know who you're insulting

Could be an important person in the society

Rubbish

I thought u want to say.....a one time helper.


Important person in d society,wen all they do is to intimidate ppl with dia position

tsharp:


Don't be melodramatic. Too much overreaction here. What if he was a gay man looking for a lay. I have been in a similar situation. Business card, nice meal and drinks and all and gone and given thanks for a divine connection only to find out the dude only wanted to drill my butt hole.

When God shows up He will make sure you take notice.

God bless you sir

so is this ur uncle the type of uncle the type of uncle i am thinking abtt or the kind of uncle i'm thinking about cos u havnt told us wat he called u for

Which ones are you thinking about?

ruggedtimi:
In 2014 i boarded arik flight from lagos to ph, the flight delayed for 30mins before takeoff. I sat beside a young man dressed casually. Then i was using samsung note3, the man saw my phone and brought out his samsung s5 to show me weather forecast, telling me the reason why the flght was been delayed. The guy asked me where am coming from, i was coming from ghana then, so i told him and i was feeling fly.
So he strted discussing about his trip from china to taiwan and how cheap it was compared to flight from ghana to nigeria. He actually travelled from new york to china before taiwan just for a frnd’s wedding.
All this while in my mind i was like see this 419 man oh!!( cos i don fall for 419 people tire so i was been carefull). I briefly told him about myself, told him my state( bayelsa) and he was like “i am heading to bayelsa once i arrive ph to have a meeting with your state governor.” Told me he works for NDDC
When we finally touched down ph While the flight was on the runway he pointed out to a private jet parked at the airport and he was like his frnd owns it and the frnd offered the jet to pick him up at lagos airport but he turned it down. Omo all this while everything this man said i didnt take it serious, I kept singing in my mind “419”.
When the plane stopped he made a call( the normal we just touched down call). He wanted to give me his card and i ignored. Coming down from the flight just at the edge of the air-stair two well kitted mobile policemen carried his bag and escorted him to the v.i.p terminal. My eye clear

God y??crying in Hong kong tune...opportunity wasted

LawyerLomo:
Lord help me locate those who will solicitate for my matter.
Amen!!
I have never enter a club before in my life. Though an upcoming artiste at the northern part of Nigeria.

No go hustle

NwanyiAwkaetiti:
I've been in that position before. Went to the atm cos I had zero cash and my stupid card decided to Bleep me up... I had to ask a gentleman to withdraw for me and I transfer to him. First seemingly rich igbo man no even send me but the guy who did, is not even igbo.



The igbo guy did the right thing

MissJoy29:

Which ones are you thinking about?

wat did he call u for na, na wetin i go use judge

Wait o op ,so u mean a colonel a.k.a a group captain a.k.a a navy captain has a complimentary card? Complimentary card as who?, a business man? Do u know its a chargeable offence to run business as a military personnel (army, airforce, navy)? Smh there are so many things I want to say but let me stop here.......

Naughtysite:


Tell them o. At check point I will greet policeman good morning sir, he will smile at me and tell me to drive off. Occupants of the car be like, you are greeting this small boy good morning add am sir. They get to same check point, police go park them, begin ask for papers.


Who is wiser? I laugh at people who puff up like balloon. They think there is something on earth to brag about.

I greet gate men with serious courtesy. But I can on the other hand hang out with the shakers of the Nation.
One of my pals went to his boss birthday party. the boss is a big mogul. The party was a small get together, one of the richest men in Nigeria walked into the party and went into the kitchen to greet people that were serving . my guy said that he was shocked, I told him he never see. The is one of the simplest, down to earth men I know. Still he is one of the richest.

Abuja is one of the funiest place you meet some powerful and connected ones.
I have had more than 5 of such encounter.

Let me say a few cuz of time.

(1) A yoruba man i met at the enroute my flight from Lagos after around 15mins interaction told me he would tell me a simple secret that would make me a Billionaire if I did what he did that turned him. As if he read my mind? He said I would see evidence by myself before I drop off cuz he ordered uber for us. At last when he gave me his card I said wow like 15 times before I dotted all the i's.

He told me the secrets after sha. I'm grateful to him.

(2) My 3 months old casual friend said I should see her off. She drove and boom we were inside aso rock. That was my first time in there. Unknown to me she was one of the photographer of the first lady.

It's dinner time. My wife is calling. I may return to add more.
