These people and cow...I never see.

etrouble:
Okay nah.

Please note that Tinubu is richer than all the drugs trafficking bastards in your generation including you that is yet to be caught. He inherited wealth and has multiplied it.

So, if we are talking about integrity on the basis of how much you have, then you are not in this contest at all because you are wretched when compared to Emilokan Tinubu the Jagaban Borgu .

This idiot cannot bring forth any sound argument. No wonder he graduated with a PASS in Philosophy

This Tinubu and the Lagos family Tinubu are not the same.

Say what u know pls.

U are just a blind follower of Bola Tinubu and u don't know that he is not from Lagos.
Your mumu don do!

It seems right to u.

I don't like what I hate.

Nigeria never ripe for all this.

When old age comes,it will now be as if u were a runs woman

I respect your opinion even when I detest it.

Live and let me live.

U are the one leading the marriage astray.

The wife was wrong too but I think u should distance yourself and let them sort themselves out.

I am sure u are not married that is why u think she should be beaten right?

Leave that man to face his marriage squarely.

Why are Nigerians so poor?
Some people think it was due to the so many years of colonization, about unusually long.

Why there is no doubt that we have been heavily affected by this long years of enslavement, I believe we can or should have healed that wound. I don't understand what you're thinking. That is what I believe.

Some others think our poverty is due to bad political leaders. While I'd love to agree with that, I can help but disagree. Why? For what?


Because leaders of any given society, club or country are just the image of that society, club or country at large.

That's exactly what I mean. People are trained by the society. The value system of that given society is what teaches them what to believe, how to behave, what to pursue with their lives and how to lead their people. That is the reason why Joseph Maistre said, “every nation has the government it deserves.” You take for instance, an average American boy of age 16 may be happy to spend the rest of his life in the laboratory finding the cure for AIDS or Ebola. Why? Because he has been trained in a society that appreciates sacrifice for a better humanity.

Suggest a similar idea to a same-age Nigerian boy and you'll blame yourself if you're lucky not to see the anger of his parents.

If a society defines success as making the world a better place and another society defines success as building five houses, do you think that both of these will produce the same kinds of leaders? You know the reply. Yeah. In Nigeria an average political leader is a thief. But I have the reason not to blame them, I dare blame our values as a Country instead. Believe me, the president of your country will not change when he becomes a president.

The Presidency only gives him the opportunity to reveal his true self ... that from his age 3-40 our society built up in him.So if I think we should have overcome the pain of colonization, and I think our leaders aren't the reason for our poverty... instead, they are the real image of who we are, what are the causes of our poverty? Have you got it?

Who we are, how we live, what we believe, etc. Let me explain one after another.

7 Reasons why Nigerians are poor.
1. Most Nigerians are religious, but not spiritual.
Why I started here, I don't know, but let's move on anyway. Religion is a major part of Nigerians, but unfortunately average Nigerians don't really know how God works. Most Nigerians (blindly) believe if they pray enough, God can make them rich.

That is heretical and unbiblical. I love the way, a shepherd puts it, "God gives us no money. He gives us the ideas and strength for business to work out."

God gives no money to anyone and praying for money is as good as praying for corn. Yes, God is the one who gives us to eat the maize, but we are the one who plants it. Even though we may pray that it will rain at the appropriate time, we are responsible for going into the bush and getting dirty.

Are you going to the mountain for 21 days to pray, because you want God to give you the maize? You don't have to go to the mountain if you don't, to beg God to give you money. He is ready to give you the money.

He loves you and has, long before you were raised, arranged all the resources you need to live a good life.

Read Matthew 6:8 and see what Jesus says here; even before you ask, your Father (God) already knows what you need.


God loves you and he's willing to give you money, but you've got to understand how money is made. Just as there are principles of maize planting, growing and harvesting, so there are principles of making money.

2. Most Nigerians hate knowledge, including financial knowledge.
In the last point I made it known that farmers must understand the principles of maize planting, cultivation and harvesting. How are they to understand that? Well, it's not through praying or fasting but through learning.

My grandfather used to be a farmer. He was teaching my dad how to farm. My dad taught us how to farm. You can go and pray for 40 days without the knowledge of how to plant maize, grow it, protect it from animals and insects, and harvest it. You cannot have a good maize farm.

Money making has principles... that must be learned as someone who reads a book. Rich men of old have long discovered these principles, starting from Abraham. These men (not now Abraham) wrote so many books that would reveal their secrets.


Book is still the biggest revealer of secrets until now. But Nigerians won't read it. If something you want to hide from a Nigerian, they say, keep it in a book. I've got tears within my heart.

I cry and tell my fellow Country people that we can't be richer than others around us except we know what they don't know. Maybe I should do that again.

Unless you know what they don't know, you can't be richer than people around you. Abraham was not rich, because he was given money by God. Open and read Your Bible. Father Abraham was rich because he did not know what others knew.

While many people worked as labourers in his days (what you'll call employees today), Abraham was a businessman with hundreds of employees (more than 300 to be specific). Nigeria will be poor forever, until we start learning, reading and upgrading our minds.

3. Most Nigerians still love job.
When will Nigerians start hating work? Today we have to start hating work! We need to start telling our young kids from age 9 and above that job is not available again, and if it's available, it's no longer good like our fathers ' days. We're very poor, because we love working.

4. Most Nigerians are not business oriented.
There was a time when I was reading about the youngest female millionaire, Elizabeth Holmes, who started her business when she was 19 (just like Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg) and later dropped out of school when her business required her to do so.

Because she (and millions of other young Americans) was rightly oriented that job is a mess and that becoming a business owner is highly rewarding. What do you think an average 19-year-old Nigerian guy and girl are doing?

Watching soccer matches, following trends in fashion or the best, getting busy with school to get good certificates. No one is out there to tell our young adults that they are the hope of this Country, that they are the ones who create jobs for themselves and others, that they must be entrepreneurs and not employees.

How can we be rich when we are not creating businesses?

5. Nigerians are poor because we run businesses like mere “buying and selling.”
While most Nigerians don't think about being business owners, those who think (or are forced to become business owners) don't run business like the business of the 21st century, rather they run business like the business of the 15th century.

You know, all you have to do in the 15th century is figure out a product or service to sell. If you can smile a little people will love you and your business will be patronized.

But business now requires more strategies and innovations than ever before, just as Seth Godin's book name, Purple Cow, sounds. If it's not the (unique) purple cow, no one sees or buys it. If you're sluggish and your product / service is stupid, no one will notice.

Most Nigerians are dull and their businesses are dumb. More of the reasons (should you care to know) lie on what I discussed with you in the second point above… knowledge!

6. Nigerians are poor because an average Nigerian is irresponsible.
I am your brother after all, so you won't say that I abuse Nigerians. Most Nigerians are so concerned about what they are getting, and not about what they are giving. I heard a man around the age of 30 complaining about his father not giving him money (or something like that) some years ago.

How dumb is that? Very dumb!!!
In many advanced countries around the world, an average 16-year-old boy has been planning how to get out of his father's home and create his own life. Most Nigerians aged 30 still see themselves as infants, needing help. We love getting a stress-free, ready-made achievement.

Unfortunately, maize does not come to life until a farmer becomes contaminated. Nigerians must (urgently) wake up and be held to account.

I started planning around the age of 20 how I'll be financially independent of my parents. I began to think, how could I make Nigeria (my country) a better place? How can I exert good influence on Nigerians?

It was time, when I was 21 and six months old, to forsake the mediocre and get busy in the world. I told my parents and family I'm going to the business world and I'm never going to need to collect my school certificate. It wasn't a smooth journey and I haven't become a millionaire yet (as when I wrote this), but I was fortunate to think differently.7. Nigerians are poor because we are still proud of school and certificate.
I can see the time to come when all of our so-called universities and polytechnics will be destroyed and our young people will be taught to embrace education in its true sense, but the situation is pathetic for now.

I've said it before, universities and polytechnics don't give the kinds of education that we need now and should therefore be killed. Poverty in Nigeria will always continue until people embrace education and not certificates. The best universities there are in the 21st century are library and google, for me.

Read. Read and read!!!.
Want to be rich and rich? Go and start reading the books on creating business and wealth. Want a better marriage? Visit a bookshop, and buy some good marriage books. Want to be more spiritual? Search google, download some great books written by the great Christians of old.

Read and read, then you're going to know how to be rich, how to get a great marriage, how to be more spiritual and how to do something worthwhile.

Does school teach you how to make yourself rich? Does school teach you how to marry great? Does school teach you spirituality? Then, what does school teaches us?

If we want to be rich, we Nigerians need to start loving education (not school). Lastly, I would like to thank you so much for reading this article and I would like to say that the above opinion is mine, and since I am a little boy, in my expression I may be wrong (or biased).

Note: Was this article useful please share, like, comment with friends, thanks.

My children school gave their bills the day they vacated.


Below is the bill and take note that I removed the name of the school for personal/security reasons.

I will advice u to go and meet the person in charge of the books and if she is the owner of the school,try and let her see the need for this increment and if she does not budge,then take it as part of your loss and may be u can recover same from other sales.

Note: keeping your customer is key,never lose them
no matter what.

Get a father figure in your life now.

Be it an uncle from your mother's side,a neighbour,your former teacher in school whom u trust or your landlord whom u may trust to guide u about life..

U need someone u may see as a father figure.

In fact,I respect your mum to have raised a whole four children single handedly.
She must be strong!

U indeed deserves to make her happy..

Biden has failed America economically,politically and now allowing migration of illegals to enter America in droves like never before in their history.

The inflation situation is another case in hand. There has never been a time in American history when Americans crossed to Mexico to relocate just to evade this kind of suffering that may soon become another depression.

The Democrats are evil in their own having witched hunt this man from his presidency to date means they are collectively anti progress.
The Democrats refused to prob Joe Biden's son,refused to also prob Hilary Clinton which suggest there is corruption in all facets of the American democracy.
Let them not forget that other countries are watching and learning from the evil they are nursing.

KVN1:
That's my shoe you are on Bro,but let us not be discouraged. Let us just keep grinding.
meanwhile,it is my birthday today?
Some should ask for my account number

Hahaha

Happy birthday to u bro...more blessing.

Why are u complaining brother.

I was in your shoes also,although I was among the first 8 that graduated in my class in 2008. I read a course I never like but I tried my best to graduate with 3.39 and found myself in the bank after wards.

And today,I have left the bank with a federal job I also do not like.

But what did I do?
I created a side hustle that i like so much?

I make a lot from it without going out of my house.

My advice:
U have to create and invest yourself in what u like and turn things around. I am a family man with this situation in this country,no one will help u except u help yourself.

Good luck.

Power to the people
North 2023

Your foolish campaign is to impoverish the people after which u start sharing rice.

That is enslaving the people and not campaign.

Do u even know what campaign is?

Hide your face in shame.

Moneyboyz:
His head should be mounted on a stake.

I blame his parents for not giving him proper education and the Nigerian education system for not making history compulsory in our schools.

Before they sentence him, they should educate him about the slave era, he should learn how the Arabians would come to Africa and take us as slaves, rape our women and kill our men, he should learn about how the Arabians will rate their female slaves and cut off their male slaves penis so they won't be able to procreate.

These male slaves end up commuting suicide, this doesn't stop them, they always come back to Africa and some part of Asia to take more slaves.

The Arabian people have a so called god but are so evil they refused to end slavery until 1962.

If you think the bloody Saudi Arabian see you as a human you are wrong, they see you all as slaves to be manipulated and singe you all are stupid and uneducated this shit will continue for centuries.

Islam claims you have to speak in their language to speak to their God and you must visit Mecca in Saudi Arabia before your service to Islam is complete, you can't criticize your leaders in Islam and so many crude rules.

If you as a human with a functioning brain do not see anything wrong with these then you deserve whatevers comes to you as a very foolish person.

Mohamed will kill Jews and Christians and rape their wives, take people as slaves and told them they are slaves of Allah. Raped children which still encourages child marriage till date in islam.

Do you even know how this Mohamed and Islam came to be? Do you know Mohamed was once a Catholic?
Do you know the Qur'an didn't fall from heaven and it was written after Mohamed death?

Too many things I wanna say but no time.

That is the problem we are facing in Nigeria and what u have mentioned here is the actual truth and nothing more.

If u want to have peace of mind...avoid these people with Arabian religion.

The police will set him free no doubt.


As for me,his parents were right to say that he is mad.

He is indeed mad!

Ray1251:
Hi guys Please am kind of new here lot of information to digest and I am looking to diversify my source of income I want to start with like $ 1000 what advice will you give me based on your experiences? thank you

I really do not know what u mean by starting with foreign currency...but if otherwise pls see my advice below.

Start with money market funds (MMF)...u can meet Emmasoft to guide u since he is the only trusted marketer we have here for now.

Sorry baba.

This is pathetic I must confess!
It can happen to anyone sincerely.

Lesson learnt:
What could have made this Baba not to have built his house long before now,because I was sure the economy was far better during his days?

To guess...
1. Large family expenses.
2. Another could be lack of financial discipline.
3. Many girl friends (soldiers and women).
4. Waiting on his pension to cater for his old age.
5. Married late...his children should have also built this house as an alternate choice.
6. Wrong forecaste of the future.

Advice:
I am using this opportunity to beg every young man out there especially those in their late 30's and 40's to work towards solving their housing needs as early as possible.
Whether u like it or not,everyone must get old or even die young but those family members u leave behind matters also.

Let us all learn from this old man's life...it may be that this man depended on his pension to build this house but he was not paid as at when due.

Pls,find a side hustle that is legitimate and right before the law and do.

Thanks.

Kai...these guys here razz.

U can collect more loans to help your family now.

exstreve:
She'll still get sacked here

Shame on u.

Poverty of the mind.

I can imagine how pained u are now.

Lagos is toxic...I left that city 20years ago and I thank God I did.

The air quality is poor,the noise pollution is the worst in Africa.

Agbero no be here,in fact find another place go.

Abuja,Jos,Kaduna and Delta go intead of thinking ofmoving to such a place.

Lanretoye:
How old were you between 1999 and 2007,im sure tinubu paid your waec fee then.if you are not up to 15years in 1999 then you dont need to know what tinubu did.

Is the state money his money...aren't igbos paying taxes ,aren't other tribes paying tax too?

Abeg hide ur face in shame.

I can't even say who is saying the truth here.

The matter is a very complicated one.

Kate should be careful...this kind matter should be look into but let her be careful men like this can do rough things to keep their profession.

The people of Orlu hate hope Uzodinma with passion...if it's losing the governorship election,hope is done and dusted in that state.

There is one special gift about an igbo man most people don't know.

An igbo can defend and fight for u any where.

An igbo man honours agreement.

An igbo man will never hurt his or her visitor. That is why they say "Ojemba ewe hin ru" that is,a stranger has no enemy.

An igbo man believes in relationship beyond tribe.

An igbo man is fearless...even my Yoruba landlady confirmed it to me.
