raumdeuter:
Zelensky in September last year during the campaign had an interview with the New Yorker newspaper where he called JD Vance "Too Radical"

Is this not intruding in the US elections, Now he has to face the person he called too radical to ask for aid
JD Vance said before that "he doesn't care what happens to Ukraine", so "too radical" as a response is very diplomatic.

Vance came in that meeting with bad mind to cause trouble. Anybody can see it in that video. He is overstepping his mark as VP where two Presidents are speaking. Zelensky wasn't even saying anything edgy, just pointing out that Putin always broke ceasefires and Vance started shouting asking for respect and thanks.

That's how Vance came to Europe shouting at Presidents and Prime Ministers, someone needs to tell him VP no be President. That's like Shettima shouting at Cameroon President, dem no born am well.

Ibime has linear reasoning ability. When trump was the president running against Biden, he tried to have Bibi support him but Netanyahu refused because anyone can win. Zelensky's problem is the European globalist coolaid he is drinking.
That was a lie as usual. Zelensky never supported or campaigned for anyone. He travelled to US in Sept 2024 and met both parties. He toured an ammunition place with the democrats and also did a press conference with Trump at Trump tower. Vance is a liar with bad mind to characterise Zelensky trip as campaigning for opposition.

oga, zelensky literally campaigned for the opposition party..if na you, you go dey dine with person wey campaign against you?

Make Una free trump /Vance abeg make dem put their country first oga..

Make USA pull out of the whole thing make Ukraine and Russia battle am out man to man..make we see how e go go..

Zelensky he dey think say na biden dey the oval office?

What sort of nonsense is that
Zelensky toured an ammunition production facility, nothing to do with campaigning. More lies from Vance

That's like Keir Starmer saying Zelensky was always with Boris Johnson (his opposition). Republicans done turn politics to do or die. If George Weah meet Jonathan and then meet Buhari later, Buhari can't be talking about Weah campaigning for PDP. Very childish talk.

That's why Zelensky was saying we had agreement with America, he doesn't GAF about your internal squabble. Countries don't care about internal nonsense. Alliance is alliance whether PDP or APC.

I only saw people who are putting their people first.. trump and Vance are putting Americans first bro..what is wrong with that?
What Zelensky said is normal. He is saying deal should come with security guarantees and that Putin has broken many ceasefire before from 2024 to now, which is why he wants security guarantee (in his broken English), then Vance started shouting out of nowhere.

At the same time, Vance was trying to distance US from Ukraine and Zelensky said we have agreement with the country. Countries don't just change foreign policy overnight. This is a norm in International politics. That's not how countries behave otherwise they will never make alliances if other countries know the alliance will change in 4 years after election.

jd vance was asking what zelensky was wearing and said it was disrespectful?

oga, why do you hate trump and Vance so much? What did they do to you?
Did you watch that video, they are talking and then Vance started raising voice. Never seen where a Vice President will be raising voice at a President. Vance is the one that got emotional. All Zelensky was saying is there has been ceasefire before and severally and Putin has broken it, all Vance had to say is those ceasefire were under different regime.

I don't think so
Defensively he is average but on the ball he is great
Play him in a better system then watch him shine.
Remember Pulisic was thrash here but in another system at Milan is now much better so I think the system doesn't suit him
He should go to another league. EPL is not for him. Always late to everything

Trump and Zelensky agree minerals deal. A very nice one

I had no fears about mining deal because I know Western companies to follow international standards on revenue share from mining unlike the Chinese or Russians who just come in and mine using non-state actors and cart away the wealth (see Zamfara for example)

When you partner with the West, development go boku and that's all Ukraine ever wanted. South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and all former Soviet States currently in the EU are proof of the benefits of Western partnership. Hopefully there are some security guarantees and Ukraine eventually join EU. In 20 years the average Ukrainian will be oppressing the average Russian financially.

Trump is proposing a $5 million “Gold card” for wealthy potential immigrants to the U.S. to create U.S. jobs.

Under the proposal, once a foreigner buys the Gold card, he/she would enjoy all the privileges that come with Permanent Residency.
A good idea, similar to an investors visa

Blunder after blunder. He doesn’t even stop to think. Just open mouth waah. So embarrassing


Pic below of him holding the treaty after it was signed.

Now in 2025 “who would ever sign such a thing”.

I bet he signs whatever comes his way without reading because he obviously can’t read. That’s why he’s firing essential federal workers without even knowing what he’s doing. Then scrambling to hire them back.
LordAdam16, remember this?

5 years ago he replaced NAFTA with USMCA which is the trade deal with Canada and Mexico. 5 years later he is complaining that Canada and Mexico are flogging Yankee with trade deficits. If his deal was so good, why is he complaining about the fruits produced by the deal 5 years later?

Na only low IQ mumu go buy all that deal talk.

Illiterate people. You dey fight family office, a recognised legal entity. Illiteracy is a disease. Instead of showing love to your granddaughter so she can drop you some crumbs from her share of the monthly dividends. Even the daughter cannot interfere with the percentage the family office has designated other younger siblings, talkless of cutting anything out for grandpa.



From Chukwudi Iwuchukwu


Herbert Wigwe's extended family and the kids he left behind are on a warpath.

The war started immediately. Herbert, the benefactor of the warring parties, was buried last year.

What is at the heart of the war is the vast wealth that Herbert left behind.

What are the issues behind the fight between the two parties, and what are the lessons we can learn from the infighting between the two parties?

It is story time.

1) In 2013, Herbert drafted his will and deposited it with a court in the US.

The will was later reviewed in 2015, 9 years before his actual death.

But he did more than a will.

2) A family office called Tengen Family Office was set up in 2017.

What the finance professionals that work for the family office Tengen Family do is simple.

To manage the wealth of the founders of Tengen: Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede and Herbert Wigwe.

Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede is the chairman of Access Bank and the co-founder of Access Bank.

AIG and Herbert founded Access Bank together.

Speaking of Aigboje Aig-Imoukhuede, Herbert made him a trustee of the will he drafted in 2013 because he trusted his friend, brother and business partner to manage and protect his interest when he is no more

And AIG has been doing that since Herbert died.

But the conflict is more than AIG and being an enforcer of Herbert will

3) Before he died, Herbert was a wealthy man, a billionaire in naira and a millionaire in dollars.

He was the largest individual shareholder of Access Bank with a 9% shareholding of the bank.

His shares in the bank are worth 125 billion.

To buttress the kind of wealth that Herbert left behind

After his death, his estate received 1.1 billion in dividends last year for the 2024 dividend from Access Bank that would have gone to Herbert if he were to be alive, but the money will now go to Tochi and her younger siblings, and this payment will continue to the estate as long as Access Bank is in existence and profitable.

But he was wealthier than this.

He owns a vast real estate portfolio scattered all over the country.

He also owns the popular Wigwe University.

He built a palatial mansion at Queen Drive, Ikoyi, a palatial house that Herbert did not get to enjoy before he died.

He also owns substantial dollar savings running into millions of dollars in his dollar domiciliary account.

He also owns a private jet as well.

For a man who was this wealthy, he was intentional about his family and their welfare in the event of his passing.

5) In the will that he wrote in 2013, which was reviewed in 2015, he was very clear with what he wanted.

In the event of his death, his wealth should be managed by his estate and the family office, and the profit from the investment should be enjoyed solely by his kids alone.

Not his father, mother, or siblings.

His kids alone and he was clear with this instruction

When the family office was set up in 2017 to manage his wealth and that of his business partner AIG

The same instructions were left by Herbert to the manager of his wealth.

6) In his lifetime, Herbert had a cousin who is a lawyer, Uche Wigwe, and because Uche enjoys his confidence and trust, he made Uche and AIG, his business partner, the trustee of his will.

7) Herbert died last year; he did not see his death coming and was not ready for it.

But he was prepared.

Herbert was a meticulous man in his lifetime and so had a will and a family office to protect his kids regardless of their age and gender.

It is irrelevant that the only remaining heir is a female.

As long as she is Herbert’s kid, acknowledged by him in his lifetime, she is entitled to enjoy the wealth made by her dad.

8. After his interment last year at Isiokpo, his extended family had a brainwave.

Since Herbert, our benefactor, is no more, we can’t allow the kids to enjoy this vast wealth alone.

They're too young to enjoy such a vast wealth, and besides, the oldest of the surviving kids is a 26-year-old, Tochi.

Tochi is a woman, and in their thinking, too young to control what his late dad left behind.

The rest of Tochi‘s surviving siblings are younger than her and they are in secondary schools.

The Herbert Wigwe family is accusing Tochi of living a champagne life, which they believe she is too young to enjoy.

Tochi is living alone with the house servants in the palatial mansion on Queen Drive, Ikoyi, that her dad built, which he did not enjoy before he died.

They also accused her of flying private jets and using the private jet that the dad left behind for her local travel.

To regulate this extravagance and more, they are demanding 20% ownership of the estate (wealth) left behind by their late son.

They also demand joint custody of the kids under the supervision of their 90-year-old dad.

9) When the family could not prevail on AIG and Uche Wigwe, the two trustees that are managing Herbert's wealth, to dance to their tune, the case proceeded to the Lagos High Court last year.

Just last week, the case was thrown out by the court for lack of merit.

To the shock of many following the drama, the Wigwe family went to Appeal court to appeal this verdict by Lagos high court.

10) The biggest lesson to take home from this Wigwe soap opera is simple.

Nobody knows when death will come, but as a rich man or woman living in Nigeria, put a proper structure in place to protect your family from the greed of your family who wants to reap where they did not sow.

Write a will.

Establish a family office to manage your wealth.

Appoint trustworthy people you trust as trustees and enforcers of your will.

This is the debt and the duty you owe your kids.

And this is what Herbert has taught us and is the best exemplifier of this.
