Power is greater than money, power will control money.

money comes first, but power is power it cant even be compared.

nwakibie3:


You can't have access to power without money, so money comes first

Nonsense. The most powerful people is most countries (Top Civil servants) are not rich….and they can make or break the richest of men.

Power is greater than money.. Abiola Haa money power over ride him, as for me power over Money! When you have power definitely you have money

Power is greater....power brings money...

Tinubu can make policies that will destroy Dangote in months ....but Dangote have limited influence on Tinubu

Watch billions (a tv series) to understand this

Power can liquidate money.....All powers belongs to God but not All Monies...

When Buhari and Emefiele changed money with power those that have excess money cried fowl.... power can make and unmake money. Anybody to get money, prostitute, kidnappers, armed robbers, cooperate workers, ritualist etc, but not everybody can get power.


Remember we always talk about the POWER of God and not the money of God.

Money is Power, and Power is Money. You can use money to gain Power and also use Power to get money.
You can't have money and feel powerless, and you can't be powerful and become broke unless you decide to stay broke yourself.

GetMeRight:

Power comes with other benefits.

Same way money comes with ample benefits.
You have either of the two, you have both.

Bros, bring the money and let power rest for where e dey 😂😂😂

ukaface:
Money

With money comes power

There is a limit to this. Look at the number of drug dealers and fraudsters in Nigeria. What power do they have? Do you see any of them at Aso rock or governors lodge, investment summits, traveling with the president toG20 meeting or social functions of private members clubs… no!!!! With all their money they cannot enter Ikoyi club. It’s only hungry people they can oppress.

Meanwhile everyday you see average people with power wining and dining with the president and the likes of Dangote.

There are people of average means but with power who the richest of men do not mess with. There are people with money and no one cares about the and with all their money they had e no access to real power hence they flaunt their wealth with noise.

Show me the man with money and i will show you the man with power! Show me the man with power and I will show you the man with money

Read the above

DaveHarry:
Between power and money which one is greater. For the deep thinkers!

If u av power nd no money u will live in pain and regret. Money can console ur lack of power. These are practical life answers no too much thinking.

Money commands power

Just have one(money) and you earn the other(power)

So money is greater

Hezzyluv:


Same way money comes with ample benefits.
You have either of the two, you have both.

Yes, but to some extent. No matter how rich you are, a person with power can still trash you. That's where power edges money. Dangote is rich, Tinubu has power. I don't have to tell you the Oga between the two.

All these people you mentioned above, you think say no be money dem used buy the power?? If to say dem no get money, dem for get the power abi?

Wawelexy:
You can have money and still not have power..... The present Abachas

You can have power but yet, no money..... The present Awolowos

When you have money and power, you are the real GOAT... The present Tinubus


If you don't understand the illustration up there, you are a kid....

Why don't you ask yourself why the Abachas you used don't have power?

The loot is still being recovered in millions of naira of our common wealth.

A good name is better than riches. It gives you peace of mind with God and men and opens doors. With that comes wealth. Atleast the Awolowos you mentioned are not begging to feed.

ThiefnubuBandit:
Yeye question!

Why not ask MANNAGRILLER how em take dey fvck em vulture wife for house?

What has his wife got to do with the topic? You talk like a fool. Likewise many people on this forum. Nonsense.

GetMeRight:

Most of them don't understand what power is. Dangote has money, Tinubu has power. So, who's to be feared most among the two?

Let's even go to practical day to day life.. a VIO official can mess a big jeep owner up on the road talkless of the C-in-C of the Armed Forces of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Dangote sef no go wan do pass himself na.

APT!!!!

Don't take away Dan's money even with tinubu power nothing dey happen. Remember they must both av these attributes.

Dangote with his money is very powerful. He can use his money to influence matters in the national assembly. He can bankroll a political opponent to overcome tinubu in next election.
He can sponsor rebels, terrorist and protesters to destroy the political gain of the president.
Even the big US govt is controlled by few super rich individuals.

stagger:


Don't you know power can strip away money? Ask MKO's family what Abacha did to their patriarch's businesses.

Or look at Jack Ma. See how Xi Jinping has chopped him to size after that arrogant speech he made in 2019.

You perfectly illustrated the case here

Abi now. The problem with most Nigerians is that they would simply lose it anytime they hear or see money.

Forget deep thinking. Money buys power

Rest .. you are saying a different thing entirely....

The best way I can put it is this. If you have money you are not guaranteed power. If you have power you are guaranteed money if you want to use your power to make money.

Why do you think our politicians do anything and will take any position to remain relevant despite most of them already having made enough money while in office?

Hezzyluv:

That was more of connections rather than money. People who stood with Tinubu at the time didn't need his money but they were in position of power and authority to help him. You still don't get it. Even voters didn't see money due to Emefiele and Buhari cashless policy

You buy power with money, just make people an offer they can't refuse.

Power is everything

Money, you can always be a student of power

Power is definitely more greater.

This can be gleaned from events in China and Russia.

In China, Chinese billionaires will be put into line if they fall out with the Communist party.

Jack Ma, founder of Alibaba.com, disappeared for sometime when he criticized the Communist party, despite being worth over $20bn.

Russia the same. Russian Oligarchs, billionaires who became fantastically wealthy by buying up Russian staye own companies dirt cheap are clearly under Putins thumb and will deal mercilessly with any of them who step out of line.

There's the famous case of Mikhail Borisovich Khodorkovsky. He was the richest man in Russia.

He stupidly made the mistake of speaking truth to power. Putin wondered who he was considering he made his money through the system he was now condemning.

Putin stripped him of many of the assets he owned by making false claims his company owed rhe state billions in taxes. Unable to pay these debts, his company assets were seized.

It did not end at that. The man was sent to prison and probably spent up to 10 years there. Upon his release, he fled overseas.

Putin used him to set an example to any Oligarch who fell foul of him.

In Nigeria, thIS is best gleaned from Nyesom Wike, who rose from being a Chairman of a local government to a two term governor of his state and now serving as the minister of the FCT. He is rumored to be fabulously wealthy.
