No, he's not taking shot at Otedola. Dem no born am well. Even when Otedola spoke out on how Tony defrauded him $20m, he didn't respond. Instead he was saying Femi na him brother. That it's only He follows on IG after his wife. If he takes a shot at Femi, Femi go scatter the table.
He is far richer than otedola.
There is little otedola can do to him.

He has deeper connections too.

That he didn't respond then, means there is no point to it.

What of 419, round tripping and cheating your old employer you worked with as a banker? There’s a reason you’re called cowboy banker.

Any thief with opportunity can accomplish what you did. Not everyone has the soul or strength to be a thIef and hardened at the same time

For Otedola to come out and say you basically cheated him out of transcorp, what of the many many you did it to that don’t have a platform? We’ll be calling out Nigerian elites, no more sweeping under the carpet. You and Dangote should be in jail

You should know that he's codedly shading Otedola in his article.

Why una dey lie? Using another entity to buy someone stock is different from committing fraud. Secondly it Dangote that use his cousin to buy Otedola's stocks. So it is the other way round. But I guess you just heard the word betray.

Oh Yes you're right, actually started learning English just last night, the man is made, go pray for yourself that God will grant you grace to and wisdom to get to their level, and I put it to you non of them that is a billionaire up there that haven't stepped on the toes of another or haven't been a beneficiary of the corrupted system in operation in Nigeria, finally I've seen all your posts and all I see is nothing but a stench of ethnic bias and nepotistic sentiments, try and maintain a neutral perspective in your views.
Otedola is somebody I respect so much but I don't like it when you come out to say somebody did something to you that you're equally guilty of, there's no Saint amongst all of them.

Let me educate you a little about banking and first comer opportunities

The Capital base to start a bank was a billion naira

Lesser for a regional bank

If you have no idea the hush puppy’s garnered over 200m$ (That’s a number of banks)

Hush puppy could have opened a full Nigerian bank

That’s just one person

You have no idea what numbers 419 boys are pulling in Lekki

So yes, he was a crook

The principle of early entrants gives you opportunities you can’t get or harder to get in latter years

Like Flutterwage and Andela (I’m not saying this were funny money, but there were some funny practices though, not the topic of this discourse)



RealityGod:


This comment is false: “Any thief with opportunity can accomplish what you did.”

Most thief will rather take to women, clubbing building irrelevant projects and in some cases marrying extra wives. God don bless this man. Wealth has some little tricks attached to it. The honest truth is all what you mentioned against him is not enough to make him this wealthy else other thieves and hired assassins would be among the richest in the country.

This level of wealth operates on a mystery.

This man should just go and rest for a while and stop talking. People have done more than you did and did not become rich. You are just one of the favoured ones by Jehovah. You can tell your stories to those who do not know your antecedents and not to somebody like me. Can you tell us how you managed the then Standard Trust Bank? How many times was the bank caught in illegal forex deals (round tripping) that you almost lost your licence if not for the intervention of eminent personalities and the corrupt nature of some CBN bank examination officials? This is stealing and has nothing to do with honesty and hardwork It is not everybody that has the big heart to do so. There was another merchant bank you managed (cant remember the name now), tell us how you manage the forex deals. The bank is at Amodu Tijani close, off Sanusi Fafunwa. Like I said earlier, you are just lucky and fortunate and that is it. Your bank has the one of the worst working conditions for casual workers. You started this type of working condition (casualisation) with Standard Trust Bank. You believe so much in cheap labour and this is the norm amongst the banks in Nigeria. Oga thank God for sailing through. Thank you.

It's public knowledge that Tony is a confirm Guy-man.

Forget about hard work, dedication bla bla bla

You need manipulation, cheating, risk taking, smartness and recognition of rare opportunity to build his kind of wealth.

It's only "discipline" I can take away from what he said. You may use any method to make money but you need discipline to keep and manage money.

Tony does not have friends, not because he does not want friends, because ultra high-networth people are careful about betrayers and cheap games by poor minds who want to be at the top by stealing ideas, betrayals and cheating.

I know Tony feels unhappy about his lack of real true friends. Tony likes to chop alone and will die alone and business partners, not true friends will gather and do great party and bury him.

But the Eulogies will not be from the heart. Change, Tony, Change. You are capable of having true friends.= money no be everything.

Even the TOE Foundation is for stealing business ideas, as well as Equity takeovers from start-ups.

He never said he is a saint. And there is no rich saint anywhere. But i believe discipline, hardwork and sacrifices can give you what you desire in life. It is about you narrowing the discipline, hardwork and sacrifices on things you desire in life.
He must have really worked hard to be able to be in the company of Bello Osagie. I won't credit him for fraud if it really happened.
He has done more to lift many people out of poverty here in the world.

You may be right with the Bello thing,he was not the target. The unclaimed billion from dead peoples account with billions worth of shares that was not converted to digital banking was the target. That was why I said in US,UK he will be serving life. Then the Ndi fraud was also part of the game. Yes he was smart.

I heard some unsavory comments about this man's shady business deals. How he steals ideas from people to expand his businesses tentacles.However, I don't know how true this was. It's a known fact that most rich people around us today have some ugly ,dirty and filthy furtive dealings that helped them to be stupendously rich.

There's no truly wealthy individuals in Nigeria, especially among the ones with wealth running into dollars can publicly declared how they made it to the top. There's a fraud in the corporate world. Dogs eat dogs

First of all, how you expect poor man to join Ikoyi club? Person wey never see food chop?

Then, you really believe say wealthy people dey join gbo gbo ero club like Ikoyi club and Island club wey any average person fit join? You don ever hear of Boat Club wey your type can only enter to do waiter or toilet cleaner job?

Guy, the more I read your posts, the more I’m convinced that wisdom no dey come with old age. Oh lawd why do I keep reading this guy’s posts? 🙈🤦‍♀️

In my post I said, "The best way in my opinion for someone from a poor background to make connections is to deliver extraordinary good service in everything you do. A good name opens door."

Joining Ikoyi or Island clubs obviously weren't obviously the first options for the poor. It is no better than me suggesting that you want the poor to join Boat club. Would you not consider me very daft? Of course you would.

I probably can't afford Boat Club. Those guys either own private jets or fly first class. Na economy class I dey use. I no dey pass my boundary. Dem dey travel go London every week and have mansions there. I was last there in 2020 and came back 21st March same year, 2 days before the start of their lockdown.

Please pray fervently I blow

You had wealthy friends whom
Funded and introduced you to connected people.


To you all quoting me , I am not speaking hear say or rumors. TOE had help lots of it.

This is why it's good not to burn bridges or let poverty diestey your mind to the extent that you only see friends as a source of free food or money .

Have class and people with class will be drawn around you. Money can't buy class.

Alot of Nairalanders here don't seem to understand this. They don't think of tomorrow they abuse an act lik animals thinking they are anonymous and it doesn't matter.

What they don't know is that this same behaviour permeates everything they do and affects their daily life offline

Just look at freestuffzng or mannabbggrillz or helinuesbfor an example start from old comments and watch the decline . These sort of people wil never find anyone who will help or believe in them.

Always be guarded in your doings you don't know who is watching

You tell yourself that it's only online you hate Yoruba or it's only online you hate igbo or Hausa , such tinkin sticks to you like glue.

When you meet someone who is supposed tohelp you they will just senses there is something off about you. They will never help you. You will think it's your village people affecting you or JuJu , no you are reaping the rewards for hateful thinking
Seconded. Without wealthy associates with questionable source of wealth, such can't be achieved in this part of the world

Femi used his father's name to build his own connection else his male siblings would be rich like him. His father's tenure as gov was very short. Moreover his father wasn't the favourite, it's because two heavy weights were fighting each other thereby paved way for Otedola sr.
