Anyone who says this story is fake is one drugs. Did our own Osimhen not perform beyond world class in Napoli ? Look at how he was treated at Napoli. Why has no top team bought him. Has anyone in the history of football been mocked publicly by so-called foreign experts ? A Turkish Turkey even said Osimhen only shone because he played in a low league like Turkey but would struggle in Italy or Spain. Did Osimhen not make everyone his beach in Italy. Osimhen is proof there is an Anti - Nigerian program. They know once you open the door for a Nigerian he will become your boss.
Not a case of anti Nigeria there are other black nations too that aren't treated this way. We are treated like this because of our bad reputation in the world. When Nigerians are glorifying yahoo and the likes online and offline what you expect, you think the world is blind?

EducationRe: What Do You Think Our School Should Do In This Highly Sensitive Situation by iamL(f): 3:09am On Sep 05, 2025
As a school owner don't you know the constitutional stand on such issues? As a business owner don't you know your legal rights as to the standards and laid down rules of your establishment? Doesn't your school establishment know what's going on in the country?

Do whatever you want, it's your business at the of the day and we all need our businesses to be successful.

But just know that some parents will start withdrawal their kids codedly and I will do same if I have kids and relatives there, no stories.

One day bomb will be sneaked into that school and no parents will want their kids to be sacrifical lambs because some school owners are hungry for more students which you are obviously going to gain since you will have an influx of their children into your school once they see that hijab is permitted there, neither will some parents want strange behavioral patterns in their children which you are definitely going to allow since you are good in bending your school rules over some persons.

NB: The inclusion of religion into any form of business is the downfall of that business.

Why would you believe what you wrote?


So all the traders in popular Nigerian markets that started trading from scratch with one small shop and grew it to a big business that don't even know how to read and write nor browse internet are also into scam?


I am speaking because I know a lot of people in this category not some criminals who suddenly made money from Internet scam or drugs.


So you believe all the Nigerian traders and business owners who don't even know how to use a computer nor have they left Nigeria before are all into criminality? Please don't believe such crap.


Forbes can never know all the rich Nigerians, it's not possible because we don't have accurate database not because their source of income is illegal.


I used myself as an example too.

I have never engaged in criminality, instead I used to operate a blog that focused on exposing internet scammers and their methods until I started getting threats and I quit cos I was still struggling then and couldn't protect myself.

So will you also attribute my little success to crime just because Forbes doesn't know about me? Do you know how I have struggled and suffered in life to earn the meager money I have now?


Likewise my friend I talked about and many others I know personally including my siblings.


Let me enlighten you guys, Forbes usually focus on publicly listed shareholding. Forbes is highly limited in the data they have access to in Nigeria because of how Nigeria is structured without proper database management not because all the people Forbes didn't list are into criminality.


Didn't Forbes recognize the guy you mentioned that later turned to be an internet scammers? This validates what I am telling you that Forbes focuses on publicly listed and available data not that they have any way of checkmating or knowing who made their money via crime or illegality, they don't have. They mostly rely on available database in each country to draw up their list.


Take it from me, the people Forbes list as richest in Nigeria are not really the richest, I may just excuse Dangote's own but the rest is just speculation because there are other rich Nigerians who are worth billion dollars that Forbes have no access to their full net worth.

People like Young Shall Grow and Co who didn't go to school but worked the soil from scratch for decades to amass their wealth, how can Forbes rate them when Forbes don't have full access to their true net worth?



But you are free to believe whatever you want to believe but discerning and exposed people who understand how this thing works will definitely understand my point, have a lovely day
Maybe you should reread myself and the other guy comments slowly and try to comprehend it. There's no way Forbes will know all the richest people in the world and some too are not even interested.

But in Nigeria most billionaires in dollars (we aren't talking about you or your siblings, we are talking about people who are richer than Dangote in dollars) wouldn't dare to come out because 99% of them cant account for their money in a legit way.

People who have real exposure to these wouldn't write what you wrote up there.

Ciao.

You mustn't be globally known to be rich and successful.


I speak from personal experience. I have a friend that is worth over 3billion naira, Forbes can never know him. He owns real estate properties in Abuja, Owerri, Aba. He owns a very thriving business that his physical products alone should worth nothing less than 1.5billion naira.


I don't want to talk about myself.


Just like my friend, I know many other market traders, very simple, silent business owners who sell trucks, machineries, spare parts (cars and trucks), construction equipment (CAT, etc), Solar energy solutions, electronics and household appliances whose products alone are worth over 10billion Naira and Forbes will never know or recognize them.


You ought to know all these, but most times u guys prefer to pretend otherwise cos u believe the people that dominate the Nigerian informal business sectors are Igbos that u love to mock undecided
The issue isn't about the amount alone but if the source from it's origin is clean. We know most of them aren't clean so they can't come out even if frobes noticed them. Some that came out like vinctus obi was later busted for fraud.

There are people Richer than Dangote in this country but fear will not make them come out and be listed. I rest my case.

How come she agreed to stay in the clinic and give birth without contacting her family or the husband then accepted 700k from them after the baby has been sold?

I think she agreed to sell the baby when they mentioned 25million but she felt cheated after they gave her a token hence her coming out now. I stand to be corrected though.

There's nothing the average Nigeria wouldn't do for Money.

BusinessRe: USSD: How Nigerians Are Losing Money To Failed Bank Transactions by iamL(f): 7:36pm On Aug 28, 2025
Toymax88:
According to him, the telecom operators are like the vehicles taking the bank customers to their bank, whether they get money from the bank or not is not the fault of the telcos.

“Operators deliver you to the infrastructure of the bank, we have no control over what happens there.

“You know, sometimes, just like the ATM where you don’t have money, sometimes when you interact with the bank, the server is resetting, it’s taking signals from somewhere, and you can’t blame the operator for that incomplete service,” he said.


This is a trash from the so called ENGINEFAR, he is not an engineer.


The telecom will not even allow u to use USSD if u don't have airtime, the first thing they ask is to buy AIRTIME from your bank account and if your bank account is red, that's the end.

There are other hidden charges from the Commercial banks again.

I would have STOPPED using commercial bank if not because I'm a civil servant,

I had #8,496 in my union bank account, I transferred #8,450 to a POS agent , only for me to have #19 left in my account. The POS still collected #200 charges.

The commercial bank only sent a debit alert of #50 electronic transfer yesterday when salary was paid but there are HIDDEN charges on each transaction
I noticed this hidden charges this week with my zenith account. They showed me an accured debit after each transfer without explanation. May God just continue to provide for us Nigeria problems has no solution.

Go and do your research. Nobody need help and work harder than 90% of women in polygamous marriage. I know how much I have helped and how many have to keep boyfriend to take care of their kids. Yes, most of the touts and criminals are from polygamous home. Just go to the prison and ask. It’s not every child you can bring up in such environment and they will succeed. Raising kids require a lot of monitoring which don’t exist in polygamous home. You actually have to be present as a parent to raise good children. It is not the duty of one parent alone. Father and mother have different roles in a child’s life.

Again, I stand on it that 90% of polygamous wives are single mother. Even one prominent politicians who is known for many wives, I know the shege his wives are seeing raising children he hardly even know. Leave story.
You nor lie.

I know up to 7 different politicians in my environment with their numerous wives and children who are struggling to survive. Each wife and her children with their own survival, the day we went to execute a project in the main building of one even ordinary water they couldn't buy. I wasn't surprised since I already know some of them but my staff were shocked.

The one directly opposite our compound is everyday fight among the step children and buying of goods on credits, till date and the first wife is still owing my sis 2k ontop ordinary hair relaxer we kuku dash her.

If I mentioned one governor that couldn't even pay his cleaners till most of them stopped the work you won't believe it.

Who nor go nor know. I just pity who dey admire big cars and mansion in polygamous homes.

Please, is it possible to build a 4 bedroom bungalow in 4 months. Sept-december.

What should I budget for this type of building in Ibadan

Thank you
Very possible, I have seen it countless times. Last December one of our engineer did a 4 bedroom duplex along with 2 three bedroom flats all attached for 3 months.

Just give it to competent and honest engineer have him sign a time management agreement and you should be on hand or have a stubborn person to be handy to monitor it.

2. You are all you have got when the chips are down.
3. Humans wear mask, nobody is entirely genuine.
4. People worship money.
5. Be selfish,be ruthless,be firm.
6. It's a crime to care too much or love too much and you would be punished for it.
7. Betrayal comes from people close to you, people you call friends.
8. Do not keep friends,keep disposable pieces.
9. Every relationship or interaction is transactional.make sure you are benefitting or cut it lose.
10. A man is only valued by what he provides. So before you provide make sure it's truly worth it.
11. Your colleagues in the office are not your friends. Do your job,get paid and go home.
12. All Women are natural manipulators,be cautious when dealing with them.
13. Sometimes,the major breakthrough you need will come from a place you least expect it, possibly from strangers.
Try move on from your past. It's unhealthy to carry pain around. My 2 cents.

If you have one or two more mtn sim cards, insert one of them in a small phone (None internet)

Your sim will detect that you're no longer connected to a smart phone and it will bring out
more good offers.
