Nigeria's political leaders only think of getting money from crude oil sales which they loot left and rights rendering our collective commonwealth empty.

Have they and their family not been traveling overseas and seeing how nations and their people are creating wealth?

WE DO NOT KNOW HOW TO GENERATE WEALTH FROM HISTORICAL ARTIFACTS HERE IN NIGERIA.

What happened to the Mercedes Benz General Murtala Muhammed was assasinated in a failed coup in 1976?

What happened to the car Late Lieutenant Colonel Buka Suka Dimka drove to an hotel in Afikpo in the present Ebonyi state?

What happened to the flowing Agbada that Zik and Awolowo wore to the International Conferences leading to Independence in 1st of October, 1960?

What happened to the Biafra Aircraft and Ogbunigwe?

We lack good sense of wealth creation?

When we do it we end up doing it haphazardly.

Go to NTA OR Radio Nigeria and you will find out that most of the videos films in their archives are already dead because they do not have the funds to maintain a standard archives to store video content of historical events.

It is an investment, A way to store cash, it would be worth more in years to come, it is business.

People buy paintings for more than that amount.

Errr.. not quiet, That car will be worth more than how much he paid for it in the future, it is a way to store/invest huge cash. Especially in one item (a car) people have paid more than that amount for just one painting.


Buying hectares of lands would be more stressful, Fighting with Omo oniles,herdsmen and Almajiris. grin

A mystery James Bond fan on Thursday became a pride owner of an original Aston Martin DB5 007 car after paying $6,385,000 (about ₦2.3 billion) at RM Sotheby's Monterey Car Week auction in California.

The street-legal 1965 DB5, built to promote the James Bond movie Thunderball, comes complete with spy gadgetry like functioning rotating license plates, tyre slashers, a pop-upbullet-proof shield, ram bars, nail spreaders, a smoke screen, an oil-slick maker, and a pair of fake guns -- set below the front turn signals -- that sounds like real gun shots.







The winning bid was well above the estimate of between $4,000,000 and $6,000,000 and is a new record for DB5s. Another example of the DB5, used during the filming of "Goldfinger" and "Thunderball", was sold for $4.6 million in 2010.







Sean Connery (pictures above), who is arguably the most popular actor to have played James Bond, said that the DB5 has become “increasingly iconic” since it first appeared on screen and that he himself recently purchased one --- that likely rules him out as the mystery buyer of this DB5.





Those that lost the bidding war can still order one of the twenty-eight DB5 “Goldfinger” Silver Birch continuation cars that Aston Martin is currently making. They will also come with all of the spy gadgetry mentioned above.

Price Aside, The DB5's Functioning Spy Gadgetries Are Really Awesome. What Do You Think?
