Loll, flutter wave's revenue in 2022 was $30 million. N2.9 billion naira is a set back but it won't stop anything. They can be sponsoring bbnaija every year, they are a financial institution, the money would keep on flowing. They spent 1b naira each year sponsoring bbnaija, you think a 2.9b theft would shake them?

The last line, it will
I can tell you for free
The 1b naira was an investment
The 2.9bn went with the dusts

Bro the usual naija yahoo boys can’t pull this off. Whoever is behind the hack must be a cyber security expert.... They need to work on their vulnerabilities
Naija boys go pull am clean self, even way better because for them to identify the account the money was transferred to, it shows the boys no even Sabi work.

Maybe because u saw the figures up there, but boys dey run am💯

Yeah, the 1b naira to bbnaija was investment, ads and all and the 2.9bn has gone to the dust.

They might still be able to recover some but, they are a financial institution whose numbers grow every FN day.

This stir up won't shake them. It'll just teach them to be more careful.

The Yahoo boys who hacked Flutter wave and stole 2.9 billion naira from the fintech unicorn company would probably be chilling at Transcorp Hotel with their babes that love dating Yahoo Boys or Inspecting a property in Lekki with payment to be transferred once he is satisfied with the property because laundering stolen money on real estate is the easiest way to launder illicit funds.

For the Yahoo boys involved, they don hammer, and God don butter their bread.

But for the organization (Flutterwave) that lost the customer funds, this is a very difficult period for them as they try to mitigate the damage and manage the ugly situation they found themselves in.

This brings me to this:

God will punish anyone who tries to legitimize Yahoo going forward by calling it a hustle.

Yahoo is not a hustle.

You are a thief who will meet his or her miserable and ignoble end and Waterloo soon. I build and sell Lithium Iron Phosphate battery and powerbank for Laptop, Starlink and home inverter. Tested and trusted.

Dey play, Professional hackers in Nigeria? These are obviously well seasoned foreign hackers. These fraudsters in Nigeria never reach.

Yes..It operates like other Fintechs in many ways. Majorly it provides a payment infrastructure.

How would it affect when 2.9billion naira is around $5 million dollars? They make that in a month. Like I said, it's just a set back.

Who told you that Flutterwave makes a profit of N2.9 billion in one month?! shocked
