I wasn't referring to here most prized assets here, i merely was refferring to other assets thats the reason i took the time to stressed that.

The only assets that Nina Simone's daughter was stripped of (managing) were her most prized assets which were willed to a trust.

Kelly Simone was willed assets in her own right that she was never stripped of.

Amujale:
The whole point of this is for you to provide a reasonable explanation for why anyone dispossess an African American assets so as to award a Recording Studio?

First, the most prized assets were not left to her daughter, so your "dispossess" is null and void, since you can't be disposed of what isn't yours.

Second, her daughter mismanaged the trust and was rightfully stripped of managing the trust, regardless of her being African American.

As to whom it was handed to to manage it, did you have someone else in mind?

Amujale:
Meaning that she did will her assets to her only daughter, why wouldn't she?

No she did not will her assets to her only daughter!

Come on man! Read below you even admitting it yourself. Or are the "most prized asset" not the bulk of her assets?

Amujale:
She did will her assets to her daughter, its just that the most prized asset is the "charitable trust" that is meant for the education of kids.

Read the below. It clearly states what was left to the daughter and what wasn't.

The fact they didn't exactly get along much might explain why Simone left her most prized assets to a trust for the education of kids and not to her own daughter.

Amujale:
You obviously have comprehension issues.

Thats precisely what I relayed in the post that you're responding.

Its your interpretation of what you wrote that is of issue here.

Willing most prized assets to a trust for the education of kids, is not, willed to the family to use as they wish.

If Nina Simone's assets were willed to her family, the family can legally divert its proceeds for personal as they wish. But it wasn't willed to her family, it was willed to a trust for the education of kids. And if they diverted trust funds to personal use as they are accused of doing, they'd rightfully be stripped of trusteeship as they were.

Amujale:
You still haven't explained why her assets were transferred from the Simone family to a Recording Studio.

Explained that, Go!

Simone's most prized assets were never willed to the Simone family to begin with. They were willed to a trust for the education of kids.

RéAnna Simone Kelly was found to have mismanaged the trust and was rightfully stripped of her trusteeship.

Amujale:
You are completely and utterly incorrect.

She did will her assets to her daughter, its just that the most prized asset is the "charitable trust" that is meant for the education of kids.

From the above, Nina Simone's "most prized asset" was left to the "charitable trust" that is "meant for the education of kids", and not willed to RéAnna Simone Kelly to treat as personal income.

Or is it that you do not understand the difference?

You likely do.

so what is the use of tertiary education since we can learn skills online and through apprenticeship?

Tertiary education is post secondary school, and includes, in this day and age, "learn skills online and through apprenticeship".

An apprentice mechanic, carpenter, tailor, plumber, coder, would not be waiting for government to create job for them and will never starve.

The point is, learn wherever or die of hunger.

Donate it to me. I promise not to tell anyone.

Mercisharelove:
Have you heard of the gospel of Christ?

Indeed I have, but I haven't come across anywhere where it is written he said God will feed you.

I've in fact come across many who worship God and Christ crying hunger is killing them. And I do wonder why I'd bother waking up to go plant on my farm if the labourer is not rewarded for their effort.

victory36:
why jobs are in place for these loan beneficiaries to enable them repay theur loans after graduation? Tertiary education in Nigeria is a very big scam.

Jobs are never in place. Hopefully, the educated will be able to create jobs for themselves.

As for "Tertiary education in Nigeria is a very big scam", lots of Nigerians are using their Nigerian Tertiary education to improve their lives, but I guess those are the one's who don't believe skool na scam or expect government to employ them.

Biodun556:
Many parents pay school fees with chap chap loan that comes excruciating interest. Tinubu student loan initiative is a big relief

Heard interest on these student loans will be an excruciating zero percent, which is far better than that nasty chap chap.

idunse:
What's people's problem

I do wonder.

Perhaps some fear the day when Tinubu's relatives buy Dangote Refinery too, and thereby rape a company they can not run and where they have not sown.

God will provide manna so everyone can just sit on their ass and eat.

It would defy reality, but hey, who cares except those who know the below is not a curse but a real fact of existence.

otipoju:
If they could collect levies from people for the air they breathe, they surely will.

There will indeed come a time when we will surely have to pay for the air we breath. A meter will be attached to peoples' noses to monitor their breathing so they can be charged accordingly through an app on their phones.

Thankfully, people will not be powerless in this regard, as individuals can choose to cut down their breathing to reduce their bill. Instead of say a normal 12 to 18 breaths per minute, individuals can reduce to 6 to 9 breaths per minute and thereby cut their bill in half. Do note though that there will likely be a standing charge payable whether you breath or not.

Hopefully, it wouldn't apply to under 18s, or it might significantly reduce the birth rate, which, while being good for birth rate reduction, might be onerous for parents who can't control their uncontrolled fuqing.

trutharena:
Students all over Nigeria are celebrating as TINUBU delivers on his promise! This is a game changer for our future leaders.

Unfortunately, we have a lot of "skool na scam" people who don't understand that their lack of education contributes to the lack of development, and think government must feed them.

They will of course die of hunger in the end.

Racoon:
All these desperation is not the answer to the unimaginable myriads of social, security, economic, constitutional and other issues the disastrous APC have heaped upon this nation.

APC did not "heap upon this nation". Nigerians voted to have APC heap on them. And after 8 years of complaining about Buhari's APC, I am amazed we (the majority) voted for them again.

And before you claim APC was not voted for and elected by the majority of Nigerians, that nonsense does not sell with me, since I am certain you likely did vote for Agbado or didn't bother voting at all.

One Nigerian person will be frying onion in agbada with firewood. Meanwhile.

People need to take advantage of this student loan.

If you use it to study medicine or such like, the world will be your oyster, and you'd easily pay the loan back with the foreign income you earn.

Deepspirituals:
So Many People in My Area that Voted for APC , they were not Election Looser , They Voted for Jagaban and each day it's always bros anything for me,

Ebin Npa waooo .

The Kain Regret they are having now Is Disheartening. These are Elections Winner oooo..

You perfectly describe the irresponsibility of many.

We (the majority) elected Agbado but now we see the results of our choice we want to deny we chose Agbado, and refuse to learn to use our pvcs better next time.

Thankfully, nothing makes people wiser than hunger.

At heart I don't think you are a bad person, only that our political alignment is not on the same tangent.
I updated my post also lamenting to the Canadian.
Too much poison here.
You should say thanks for my compliments

Reduce your poison and I might bother giving you the time of day.

Barack Obama has endorsed Vice-President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic presidential nominee, ending days of speculation over whether he would support her.

basilico:
You are a good immigrant . You add value to the Brits as far as I can tell though you want the empire they unleashed to the world to fall.

Why would I want Britain to fail?

basilico:
My daughters do IGCSE but I'll never let them do their undergraduate in UK. Maybe Masters if my side solar business won't need their input.
I'll tell you if they come there, where they are studying so you can teach them British values.

That last statement just shows how much of a waste of time and space you are.

You spend so much time calling me undesirable names but would send your daughters to me for education.

Are you not afraid that I will teach them to use their brains better than their father doesn't?

basilico:
You know what I'm saying. Can't man up to a challenge

Ignorant stupidity is not a challenge. It is a pointless attempt by you to gain relevance and occupy my time, and you fail at both.

basilico:
The beauty of immigrants. Australian lady gangraped by 5 African men in Paris.
The Parisians have to adapt accordingly.
Oh budaatum, cultural enrichment.
Their smug elites didn't ask the ladies before importing hordes of immigrants.
Who Trump was vilified for saying they wasn't sending their best to America

African man basilico you better not immigrate to Paris then, or you might go there and rape grandmothers.

Though, French people, thankfully, don't ignorantly paint all African men with the despicable actions of 5 African men.

Sorry, but I can't be dealing with your ignorant incoherency.

So now Cameltoe ( pun intended) .......

Amujale:
Ultimately, Lisa Simone is accused and convicted of defrauding her own inheritance, make that make sense.

This is not a true statement. Nina Simone did not will her assets to her daughter!

According to Nina's will, obtained by TMZ, Nina put the bulk of her estate assets into a charitable trust to benefit the musical education of Black African children from Ghana, Liberia and South Africa.

The docs show Nina named South African singer Miriam Makeba as the trustee, and if Miriam was unable to act as trustee, MM could appoint a successor to continue to run the trust for the benefit of Black African children.

Also...

The daughter of the late legendary jazz singer Nina Simone fleeced her mom's Estate and FLAGRANTLY ignored Nina's last wish -- to fund schools for poor kids in Africa ... this according to law enforcement.

Lisa Simone Kelly siphoned more than $2 million that the California Attorney General claims should have been earmarked for music schools in South Africa, Liberia and Ghana. Lisa had access to the money because she was the trustee of her mom's Estate.

The A.G. claims the most flagrant violation is funneling $1.5 mil to Lisa's personal company ... something her mom never approved.

We've learned the A.G. pressured Lisa into resigning as trustee and is now demanding an accounting of funds -- which could result in criminal action.

Nina Simone's family was devastated by Kamila Haris's stint as California' Attorney General.

In the said situation, the family of Nina Simone (more commonly known as "the high priestess of soul music", Nina Simone remains as one of the most iconic soul artist in the African American community)
were ruthlessly dispossessed by team Kamila, as they took away the most treasured assets that was meant to be passed over to her family and instead awarded it to Sony Music.

Below are images of Nina Simone and her daughter, Lisa.

Below are some views on the matter.

Nina Simone did not will her assets to her family. She put it in trust to educate kids. And if her daughter was mismanaging the trust by using the revenue for her personals as alleged, she would have needed to be removed as manager, and the race of new managers would have been irrelevant.
