[b]2 Things.

It is better we emulate our northern brothers by burying our relatives within 12 to 24 of their deaths. No mortuary no ceremony no gathering no parties. It saves us time and money. I know of people that borrowed money to bury their dead relatives. I know of people that buried their mother, spent all their wealth and remained in the village till date, I know of some people that died while coming back to Lagos after traveling to d east to bury one rich man's wife that year. Ps. let us stop this unnecessary spending and waste of time and resources.

Secondly. It is best for us to make things easier for bachelors and spinsters and to encourage more young people to settle down as soon as possible by allowing marriages ceremonies to take place with JUST 2 witnesses from both families. Finish! All this rent hall call flavor bring Alibaba and Gordons as MC, pay DJ JimmyJat is the reason 80% of our young boys and girls is not married.

Please lets try and make life simpler and easier for ourselves by choosing what is best for all of us. [/b]

Still not enough to make him a billionaire
20 burials a week is 20m
20m × 4weeks is 80m per month not 1 billion
80m per month × 12months is still not 1 billion a year

Times it by 23 yrs strong the business
Add sales from coffins to outside clients he manufactures

And ambulances he rent to outside clients

He is a billionaire in naira , billionaire is just to have 1000 of a million

Billionaire is not what u make in a year , it's about all your life earnings as in what u have on the ground , not what u make in a particular year .

Apams charged Tonimax family 34 million for casket alone . This is just on one funeral , just one casket . Not handling

How some people become rich baffles me. Just from that casket, ambulance, horse, those boys and girls dancing and jumping. In business, respect Ndi Anambra.

Just so you know, I need just 86 million naira to become a nigeria billionaire.

Ashirioluwa:

So the business is 1yr old by your calculations.

Where you come from a billionaire is a person who earns a billion every year. LOL

Some people just rush to air their views without engaging their brains.

All booking their own caskets and handling!

majamajic:
His burial charges is over a million per funeral...

It could be less. It depends.

charlsecy:
It could be less. It depends.

Let's take for example Tonimax casket alone cost 34millon , he made the casket himself , not talk about handling charges

Lowest is 1 million

He sells luxury casket to them for their relatives funeral.. they know death is a must so they keep him close in case onwu bia.. �

deepwater:
To be honest
i still don get the connection between all the politicians in the south east with this young man

Don't quote like a sec sch pupil.. not a billionaire and Rose Royce cars as ambulance in almost every state.. luxury suvs and caskets are worth millions there.. he is a billionaire as the company has been running strong for 2 decades I think ..
