I also wish to know before I commit my investment to them .

They are backed by Sankore Investment Ltd and centurion Registrar and those two seems solid.

But more information will be appreciated.

I rushed to comment before reading your post. My bad.
There is a risk free business I can show you. It is a loophole in bet9ja. You will need around #400k to do it.

yahamisu:
I found my way back to the car to try getting warm cos i figured since the car is parked, the heater should work but it felt like it was blowing below zero. i looked around in the car and found a pack of socks i bought earlier in Reno, so i wore additional socks and slid two on each of my hands, i figured staying in the car wont help so i stepped out of the car, took some steps behind the second car and started waving at cars driving on the other direction but am not sure anyone could see me. shortly after that a state trooper(state police) drove by but he just looked away, i almost thought i was dead and invisible already.

Suddenly another heavy truck came close to a halt on the next lane by my side but to my surprise, the bastard took out his phone to video me and he was laughing about it, my soul dropped off my body, then several trucks and cars started passing, I was waving and staring into their eyes as they passed and no body stopped... about 10 minutes felt like 10 hours, so i gradually skid thru to the car and tried to get a bit of heat again before stepping back out to keep waving till someone stops.

Suddenly, something told me to just shift the gear to drive and even see if it will drive...............

At this point my entire life flashed right before my eyes as the car just moved a bit and before you know it, i was moving. it almost felt like the car got its engine replaced with a V8. it started driving like i wasn't even pulling anything behind me as i drove past the ELK mountains in Laramie, drove through the heavy snow at the peak of the summit where only the red Indians reside, drove through the huge ranches of Nebraska, the quite towns of Iowa, through the cities around Chicago. then one of the 3 friends ( All with Anthony as first names..co-incidental? )who kept checking up on me called me. he is based in Kokomo Indiana and i felt it wont be a bad idea branching through to eat his wife's delicious igbo styled vegetable soup with correct poundo. I just had that serious urge to come face to face with someone i know cos ive had alot of stops at gas stations, i have met the good, the bad, the ugly and the very ugly in this single journey.

Then i got wondering cos through out the trip i was playing my naija music from pandora so at the times the network disappears, am left with my thoughts about similarities of my past experiences in NIGERIA MY COUNTRY. God placed whites in the cold cos he knows they will come together and find a solution around it, thats why they can live in the coldest parts of the planet and it just feels normal to them. However, California is no different from Northern Nigeria, they have farms and ranches in all the open lands with ranches to keep their cows away from people, Nebraska to me was no different from Borno cos i have been there. the land scape in New york isnt different from what we have in Lagos. The creeks in southern Nigeria arent differnt from Connecticut. Hyanis which is about 2 hours after Boston is no different from what we have in Portharcourt, the country sides of Indiana are no different from my beloved Kano state.

This is the sorta trips i normally take in Nigeria where i would drive to Jos to hangout with my friends, or go to Benin for a memorial service, or go to Eket for my friends Grandmas burial. abi na when i go warri go look for babe?....e.t.c

I eat one Kilishi in daura and i wanted them to adopt me. i drank fura in Zaria and it almost felt like i needed a diaper change. or is it the amala and gbegiri i had in Ibadan when i went for a friends wedding and we ended up spending extra days just to enjoy the feel of iwo road, molete...e.t.c

In that same speedy flash with no network, i remember my days growing up in kano when my aunties best friend was yoruba by the name of Kubura, She was always a nice aunty to have around as she thought us Ijoyoyo, I remembered the days of Chibuzor my guy, Mutiu, Charles, we jumped through molues buses to get to TBS Lagos just to watch or play Cricket, sometimes we save our break monies just so we can have enough for practice period.

I remembered the days me and my family would go on road trips where everybody we met on the road accepted us like family cos deep in our hearts, NIGERIANS LOVE each other(and i am talking to the lenght and breathe of NIGERIA), I remembered the time me and my Custom officer friend Frank Echeta drove from Lagos to Jos, the alternator blew in a village near Gidan waya in Kaduna, when the only guy who could bring the part to fix it was an Igbo guy from Anambra and on the same hour, we droped what we wanted with his sister who came to meet us there and we instantly drove back to lagos through 2 different routes, I saw first hand the level of decay in my country as at 2017....

Tripple damn!!!

I've been to the four courners of Nigeria and i feel like crying right now cos as smart and courageous as we are, we have falling into a very deep slumber and we allow our RULERS have thier way with us. mind You this has nothing to do with your tribe, ethinicity, religion or even back ground, i dont care about any of that, we need to be honest with ourselves, treat your neighbor with the kinda respect you want in return.

If you dont agree with me, it doesnt mean we cant deal with the truth and reach the sucess of one another. how do you feel coming from Mosque/church after praying then you start to gossip about your friend whom you just left at the church/mosque?

how do you feel waking up in the morning, praying to God and then going out with the intention of hurting your fellow man?

I have seen it all, the good, the bad, the ugly and the very ugly. It is simple to fix Nigeria, we all have to stand by and for each other. United we stand....period.

I have done this same trips in Southern Africa not just by road but flew solo with a single prop C172 aircraft to a point where i got lost in a Military airspace and had a helicopter pull up on me in the air before i got the proper radios settings from Grand central tower Midrand to make it back. My friends Roxy, Ibrahim, Angel, Tobi laughed at me so hard that they almost needed an ambulance (they all working in Caverton/Bristol helicopters now but complain about the situation In my beloved country too). I enjoyed the roads and hospitality in South Africa so much that i married a South African Lebogang (when naija babes just dey form anyhow that year...lol). I could hear the fear in her voice through out the times i spoke to her but i kept down playing the situation just to calm her down.

Even Mr Silas and Mr Monday where kinda confused on what was going on(we live together).

Oh well, i drove through some crazy snow to get to my friend in Kokomo, ate the delicious meal and some minutes after i left them with happiness in my mind that am about 10 hours away from Baltimore, i started feeling sleepy and even drifted a bit for a minute, so i pulled over by a truck parking area, got the best sleep of my life, Thanks Chinekwu Anthony Gidado.(when you chop correct food com get better sleep, any body you hit will know say HE that is in you is greater than HE that is in the world...lol).

While enjoying my sleep, my phone rang and funny enough, i was actually happy waking up at that time. it was Tony my Warri friend who brought alot of business my way. AREA!!!. We spoke over the phone for a while just as we have done in the previous times as he was on the phone with me from the begining. he just kept wondering like what is wrong with this guy?.

Abit later, i got a call from Anthony Aburumaku, my Ondo friend who showed me a lot. i guess he was the most scared ( we all know say na yoruba dey fear pass...lol)...Then i spoke to Chibuike, Danladi, Aminu, Josh Dariya. This all makes me realize that interaction with different types of human beings isnt hurtful, it only makes you see life from different points cos throughout my trip, i met with those who care, and those who dont give a shit but at the end of the day, have i been fair to the next man?. ask yourselves...

As treacherous as West Virginia is, with all the hills, and 9% slopes with compulsory tire break checks and most hilly places i have ever seen , nothing felt hard anymore cos a collective effort of NIgerians Made me!!!.

I made it home safely, eat the additional take away package Chinekwu gave me and had the most wonderful sleep part 2. the car owner really liked the cars, the engine was changed and no single issues have been reported since March when they got the cars in Nigeria. infact, he gave me a $1000 bonus cos the cars got truly liked by the end users.

I ve been on other trip and if you want me to share, follow me, I will be on a jolly trip next week, i dont mind carrying you all along, lets talk to ourselves.

MY NAME IS YAHAYA AHAMAD HAMISU

I SAY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!

WITH THE ALMIGHTY GOD BY OUR SIDE, NOTHING IS IMPOSSIBLE.

Ford cars are built tough.

You can't but fall in love with a Ford when you own one.

I can't wait to lay my hands on this beast.

I used a 2011 Ford F150 way back and it felt like heaven.

The flex fuel and the torque is insanely unbelievable.
