Throwback:
It was already stated as an open invitation.

And It is Obasanjo that needs to clear his own doubt.

There are proper procedures to go through when inviting someone, especially someone who's seen and done all like the ex-president. That's the main issue here, that nnpcl should have gone through the right channel and not a public invitation which can be easily misconstrued as a blatant insult.

GanagiBitrus:
But many people did not believe his claim that 180m was stolen.
Whatever, he ended up shooting himself in his foot.

I don't like the way he went about it tho, but yea, a lotta people didn't believe him but instead of verifying or actually pointing out the obvious fallacy, they jumped to cursing him and his family out

GanagiBitrus:
There are many people who believe he had some ulterior motives but the outrage & backlash from SM made him backtrack.

Read through the comments, you will see the prank did more harm than good to his reputation.
Or can you tell me one positive thing the prank did for him.

It's supposed to make people actually think before posting and try to verify information before spreading it. It's not that deep bro, na una dey make am be like say na something else

GanagiBitrus:
Very foolish experiment. He only succeeded in messing up his reputation.

Sounds more like someone trying to cover up after his ulterior plan failed. He probably underestimated the outrage & backlash from SM over the missing ₦180m claim.

He is the sole signatory or major signatory to the NGO account. I'm sure if he wants to embezzle the funds, he can do that easily. How exactly is claiming that #180m was hacked via website a sensible way to embezzle funds? It was never a credible plot bro, people wey sabi reason wella never believed that bull.

Frigga13:
80% of social media users are stupid?

This man is really stupid .. insult even his fans

Anyways .. na deftness the worry the fool from beginning

But he isn't far from the truth, most SM users no get better sense, just shalaye and clapbacks dey their head

Only that there are not prophets in our time. Only self-acclaimed probusinessphets.

live and let live bro, people will believe whatever they want to believe.

But these don't look/sound like prophecies tho, sounds like a general statement that anyone can make. I'm actually not trying to be anti-christian but come on people, this isn't it.

blowjohn:
This thing is complex.

It's easier to go ahead and eat the money little by little especially during any empowerment program he has.
He can even inflate the projects and cash out.



Than to steal the money in one fell swoop.

He's not stupid to just steal the money like that.



But is baffling to me is the motive behind the whole thing( I fail to see it as a prank).
To what end? Everything he complained people said or displayed on the issue is to be expected.
Anger, suspicion, rage, annoyance, shock, surprise, hatred, backstabbing, insults, threats.


What was the motive?


Who made him an authority on media matters... How humans process news and information and respond to them?


Cos that was his premise in the video I watched.


But one thing I know is that VDM is not stupid.
And I know he knows the last and most stupid way to steal that kind of money is by saying someone hacked in and stole it.

Tick tock tick tock tick tock......

Exactly my point, the story, from the little I've gathered, sounds so ridiculous it can't be 100% false.

MasterJayJay:
So why hasn't Zenith sued him for 'lying' that his account was hacked?

When you miss a vital point, you will end up deviating. If VDM can lie that his account was hacked, he can equally present fake bank statement. That's why I said only the bank statement that comes directly from the bank should be trusted.

Firstly, no bank will give you statement of another person's account without a court order.

Secondly, I have not followed vdm's hack story, this is yuletide season, events n family full everywhere, no space sef, but what I know for a fact is that no bank, especially top tier bank, will let their name be tarnished, so if zenith is yet to debunk him, means there's an element of truth in vdm's story, no matter how ridiculous it seems. Maybe he Just isn't explaining it well enough, do you have a link to the story where he said the account was hacked?

MasterJayJay:
How do you know VDM is showing the original bank statement?

How do you know he isn't?

The point is moot anyway, if he's showing a modified statement, then zenith bank will sue his sorry ass just like GTB sued that low budget accountant, Edward, that came out to say rubbish online

What sort of mumu scam is this? The scammers and the scammed no get sense, infact the scammed sense dey lower than the scammers cause what rubbish format is this?

emmy512:
That was my hustle years ago and it's very possible.

With what you have said it'll be easy for someone to scam you with a pdf document and in your mind you'll be saying no one can falsify

No one can scam me with a bank statement oga. A bank statement is not like a normal PDF file that you can modify without making significant and identifiable changes to the original document.

MasterJayJay:
Dude, you are a learner.

There is no PDF file that can't be modified.

Sued by the bank? The problem you guys post something without understanding what you posted.

you can probably modify a bank statement PDF file but not to the extent that it would not show that it was modified, there are plenty signs of modification.
Why do you think the bank will let you post a fraudulent statement and let you go scot free?

MasterJayJay:
Dude, you are a novice to make such statement.

Everytime you guys will come on SM and make baseless claims.

Firstly, I really do doubt you can actually make any sort of corrections to a bank statement like I previously stated.

Secondly, on the small probability that you are able to modify the statement as you claimed, a sensible person will not flaunt such a bogus statement online as it leaves you open to be sued by the bank.

No be everything you go claim boss oga

MasterJayJay:
Bank statement that I can edit with my computer.

The only trusted bank statement is the one that will come directly from the bank.

Lol, e sure me die say you no go fit edit any bank statement that's in PDF format

ElSudani:
VDM= Very Dubious Man.

A prank of a dubious attempt to get Nigerians to send you more money?
He is dishonest, a hypocrite as well, case closed.

How does the prank get people to send money exactly? If it's actually a prank, then he lost goodwill for nothing so I'm not sure where you're coming from

Throwback:
Many of you need to learn to separate your political partisanship from the business of government of the Nigerian state.

The report said an individual spread false information against the Nigerian state. There was no mention of political party.

You're kidding if you think that APC didn't do worse under GEJ. Most of you have such short memories it's fascinating

Houseontherock1:
So Harrison from Delta also needs 2.8 million?

Probably Gwanishu....so that guy na also low budget scam artist like this

Imagine succeeding against the birds and travails of the air just to die at your destination....RIP to all victims, this is obviously an aircraft issue , seems landing gear refused to deploy.

Most prime real estate in VI and Ikoyi are valued in Dollars. Most of them also collect Rent in Dollars. The reason is because most of the developers have foreign loans that they service In Dollars !

Ok, noted, thank you

Exousiang01:
LoL
dey play.
Many houses in Ikoyi are actually priced in dollars and not Naira.
A friend wanted to rent a place in Banana last year it was priced in dollars, he had to pay jn dollars.
So yes many apartments in Ikoyi are sold and rented out in Dollars.
Eco Atlantic is also priced, rented and sold in dollars.
No dey talk wetin you no sabi

That's so irresponsible of them and what the lawmakers are trying to stop by making it illegal to use USD for transactions in Nigeria

Validated:
Stop hating ... N2.4b is $1.6m. Two house would each be 800$k each.

Try to make sensible comments. the building is in ikoyi, do we spend dollars here?

You talk too much oga, allow the video speak for itself

galserv:
Do you have a choice?

You are trapped already

People now come from abroad to patronize our health system FYI.

You don't mean eeet

Eriokanmi:
Stampede is an orchestrated plan by politicians to take human blood. It's a modern and clean way of redeeming their vows. Take food items to any state or area, invite people to come pick theirs. At least, one must die.

Or tell people there's a gathering for a social discussion, invite a lot of people and throw gift at them. One person must die. Our politicians know what being organised is all about. They know how to go about it and nobody will lose their lives. But for the reason explained above they'd look the other way. People should stop honouring such calls cos heads dey different. Head strong pass head.

By the way, Alex Iwobi did a good job but UK people no hungry reach naija in this tinubu era. He should have come home to do the same, same way some of our footballers had done in the past.

Try get small sense in 2025

Reality dawning . His Excellency actually answered most of the questions with humor

Shop at mart instead of mall

Annoyingly, those who are privilege hardly patronize road side sellers. They keep on giving their money to the capitalist . Buying fresh fruits at road side compared to mall or mart is almost 10% difference

Lately, I have been deliberately buying some things at the road side just to boost the economy

Funny man, is it the #2,000 banana and pineapple (painted pineapple) that will boost the economy?

He is on point. I've always hated that our media personnel find it impossible to ask hard hitting questions when they get the rare opportunity to speak to the lawmakers and leaders making our lives miserable in this country, spineless and weak media, the lot of them
