If it is, then local rice like Mama Gold and the like should be cheaper, right? I don't even know if it is foreign. Mumsie recommended it and I didn't ask if it was local or foreign, but it is short grain though |

Glocal1: When found guilty, he should have been compelled to return the money to the victims and then thrown into jail forever. Capital punishment should be established against yahoo crimes, to stem it's tide in Nigeria. I agree. Make an example of a few people, especially people in high positions in the society |

Dogalmighty17: Gen Z in the house, gather around the table let me regale you with tales of the most prolific Nigerian fraudster, Fred Ajudua.
See kids, before yahoo, there was yahoo. Fred was and still remains a legend in this regard. The kind of heist he and his men pulled is so phenomenal. Fred put the ya in yahoo. Imagine that they locked him up in prison and right there in prison, he scammed one of the most brutal army generals Nigeria has ever had. General Bamaiyi. A prisoner scamming another prisoner. Fred scammed Bamaiyi of 8.4 million dollars right there in prison!
Fred is extremely smart and suave. He has the gift of garb. That's why Emmanuel Nwude, another big time fraudster and a former executive director of Union Bank, sought his services. Together, the sold a non existent airport to a Brazilian bank for 242 million dollars over 22 years ago. This was done using just a fax machine. No internet, no mobile phones outside thuraya satellite phone, were in existence then.
Oh! A movie has to be made of this. Fred and Nwude were very elaborate. They invited the Brazilians to London, lodged them in the best hotels, hired limousines to chauffeur them around town, took them to the best clubs and spent money like nothing. That wasn't all.
They invited the Brazilians to Nigeria. Right from the Lagos airport, Fred and Nwude paid just about every person that the Brazilians would come in contact with at the airport. They even hired people to be around the airport to greet Fred and Nwude as extremely wealthy guys. It didn't end there.
NNPC headquarters in Lagos then, was another staging area they used. Nwude, had the Brazilians follow him to the very top floor of the building. He took them to the NNPC boardroom. Paid NNPC staff and hired actors all around the building were greeting Nwude like a boss. The air of confidence Nwude walked into the towers with and the way the paid staff and hired actors showed respect to Nwude, further lulled the Brazilians.
It was right in that NNPC that the Brazilians, thinking they were signing a deal of a lifetime, agreed to transfer 242 million dollars to an escrow account Nwude provided.
Mind you as at then, no Nigerian bank had a capitalisation of 100 million dollars. So that was enough money to bounce the bank.
The Brazilians, excited, went back to their country. When the call to inspect the non existent airport they bought was not forthcoming, that's when they got apprehensive and got the authorities involved.
This singular scam that Fred and Nwude pulled, is the reason why we have EFCC today. Even Obasanjo as president then, could not comprehend this kind of criminality.
Fred never stopped scamming. He enjoys it and does so for fun. He later went on to become a member of the house of reps before his criminal nature caught up with him and he got sent to prison in Nigeria. His son, used to be Davido's lawyer until Davido dropped him.
What about the Brazilian bank he scammed? Well, the bank collapsed and some of its executives commited suicide. Not a kobo of that money was recovered. The man has blood on his hands because people committed suicide over the scam. That blood will haunt him and all those who have profited from his ill gotten wealth, his children included. The sorry fact that despite his criminality he still managed to become a member of the house reps says a lot about Nigeria as a country. A WHOLE LOT. What a disgrace. In a country like China, Fred would have been sentenced to death a long time ago because this kind of remorseless proclivity for fraud is mind boggling. |

Nnamdipapa: If iI am your dad, you will find me whether I am there or not, I am leaving houses and wealth for my kids and I am setting up a trusts that can cut people off even 70years from now when I am dead and gone.
I will cut you off if you misbehave as my child. I control people with what I give them which include my children. Lol. If you continue with this kind of mindset, I don't see you having a very happy old age. If you were my dad and you cut me off because of your inability to control, it's your loss not mine because I will go out and make my own way. You made yours, so can I. |

NoToPile: You are not the only one. There's just something about the way he speaks or his voice I just can't place it.but then it's the way he speaks so I just try to pick the words.
@topic Deeper life is one of the ministries I so admire, they have been able to maintain the biblical standard for a long time. They may have their shortcomings though but as always it's mostly leaders and members all that overdo all these things. Especially marriage/marriage committee matter omo people saw shege.
Had an experience about one DL brother that wanted to marry me. Merely remembering the incident makes me laugh 😂 the tori is long. You know I don't believe in that marriage committee thingy. The best marriage committee are my own parents biko. Even when I try to pick the words, I still can't because, like someone pointed out, I find his speech cadences very distracting and jarring |
