He takes him nothing to sponsor his son wedding,with staggering 2m it will goes a long way for the wedding.Why not a house or rented apartment why would a normal fellow converted five star hotel to be his house..We are living in insane country..

Koolbobby:
Solomon has cooked one meal of a lie whose aroma turns my stomach bad...
It's a pity Eko Hotels won't come to his level and trade words over the media.
For a lot here who have swallowed his version of the story, I am sorry for your gullibility. I had patiently read the whole hogwash and was hoping to see where he admits assault but as usual, his ilk will rather sensationalise issues by buying public sympathy.
Solomon Nwadiogbu a.k.a. Emilinks truly has about 4 Porsche cars clamped in the Hotel and will need to cook more delicious lies to hope they'll be released to him.

Answer your assault case, money-miss-road!

As for the Judge, his case will soon be "reasoned"... Corrupt lots!!!

sunboy:


Don’t judge!
You don’t know why he decided to stay in the hotel!
You don’t know how many properties he has!

Hustle your hustle so you can be busy enough to mind your business!

overboard:
Let me drop something here...

While I agree on some level, staying at a hotel is wastage but on some level, and I say on some level, it is very convenient, thus by the pocket of the person that decides to make a hotel an abode, economical.

Take into cognizance diesel to power generators (not our kain 10 kVA o - I'm talking Mikano and the like), support staff to ensure conveniences to his taste are maintained, security concerns... Some people find it an absolute bore and since they can afford it and find it readily available, why not.

Surely, these features are obtainable in some quarters but also bear in mind he may have a horde of guests he prefers to host outside his property as it is not out of place for such a man to have tasteful real estate.

Let me not lie to you, when you are netting like a N10,000,000 and above a day on the average and very possibly legally too, most of the 'commentators' here go shift talk in support.

A one-time boss stayed at same hotel for a year on his own bill and he is into clean business...

Adenuga, on exile stayed at Burj in Dubai for months if not years on end... He would often summon his executives to meetings there and at about every 6 months call for about N300m for his bills - that was convenient for him especially security wise. Just an example.

Yoighaman:


He's a big time businessman (who owns Emilinks); people like him think differently and must have had his reasons for staying there; probably to make a statement to his business associates or for just about any reason personally known to him.

It's like asking someone who bought a Bentley or Rolls Royce why he made the purchase when a Toyota or Nissan can take him from point A to B.

Homguy:
obviously your brain went to take a dump when you typed this post

BafanaBafana:

and yet you have not excelled in life

Amadioha02:
poverty talk. seems you didn't read the article. he is a business man. You don't host your business partners, have international conference at your home,do you?

executive12:


Fully loaded, with Government money, of course. You will hardly get those with genuine source of wealth living lavishly.

Beremx:
Ehe! What of an office? He can't have an office in lagos?

Poverty talk indeed

Hedonisst:


Assuming the whole thing boils down to an assault case as you claim, is the penalty for assault confiscating one's properties? Why not sue him to court or get him arrested for the assault? What's your point really, since you seem to have insider knowledge?

Beremx:
so after the meeting, the host can't take them to a hotel? Inukwa?

SavageResponse:
The judge is indirectly asking for a bribe

shoprite:


Holler @ me when u are ready . . .might even get u something cheaper . . .was only riding on a budget that suits the Chief in question

Kobicove:


It's obvious you also went to a backyard school otherwise you will know that the above media statement which is written in Igbotic Grammar is of very poor quality!!!

kolaaderin:
Abi ooo. Just there you know the business is not legit. Staying In hotel so they can move and disappear as soon as the duping is done

obiekunie2:


oga judge woke up to realise that he is about to retire and broke therefore want to make his retirement pension from the igbo chief who has been flexing in luxury.

but igbo man wan show am say no be him send am go civil service!

Okuda:


point of correction. no legal business of any man would take care of his 6years expenses in a hotel of that magnitude. you cannot ball like that on a legal source of income except you have decided to go bankrupt at one point.

RonaldoVido:


Oga, balling is possible.

Country don spoil. Inasmuch as Nigeria is a funny country, the man lives like a white man and it's obvious his business base and sources of cash is foreign.

When the going was good in Nigeria, several men lived like him.

fashrola:


Lol.... I wouldn't trade words with you on a public forum..... You don't know me so take my advice and run along
