And I bet they can't give account of that money

I bet they can. Look at both people mentioned, do their lifestyle reflect as
ostentatious?

Gerrard59:
Yes. I strongly believe he and his brothers have American citizenship and investments in the US. I am curious, does the exchange rate affect some people who could do the same before it got so bad? As long as the world's reserve currency is the USD, it makes sense to own dollar-denominated investments.

From the recent recent outburst from jude ie their older brother after he was questioned by the efcc. He said he said after they shared some heavy money 3 ways, he and this twin bought property, ie condos in the US, while the other twin bought a range rover to propose to his wife, also a Bentley for himself. 200-300k if I remember right.
Anyway owning a condo will be heavy income as it would be rented out, possibly airb&b. Short let. Massive income in $$. Of course when visiting just as he is doing now, he also has a place to stay as he will suspend renting briefly.
If your income is in naija, no matter how rich you are, the recent devaluation has made you poorer, unable to afford previous lifestyle internationally.
We all need to seriously find some sort of abroad income in FX.

Meeenn, this psquare guys invested well when the going was good. To be able to run the current lifestyle no easy.
To take wife to US to drop engine with the current exchange rate na beans?

IPOB retards are always looking for trash to console themselves. Clowns

I stand on Tinubu till 2031. Take that to the bank.

Whether Tinubu wins or not in 2031 is not guaranteed, what I can guarantee you is that, the Agulu-packaged fraudster also known as the YES DADDY religious fanatical IPOB terrorist cannibal monkey WILL NEVER RULE NIGERIA.
TAKE THAT TO THE BANK

Juvenile fulmination of non-juvenile person.

Whats his source?

Or we should just believe it cause its coming from him? as per who? See his dumb hypothetical premises with some insane analysis


The good thing about this is that, some wailers will start gnashing their teeth in anticipation of this non-existent scarcity already. Starting from this thread, you'd think they are being paid to wail

Oga, this has been the modus operandi for may years, nothing strange about what op wrote. As far back as ibbs time.

Mariangeles:
For every negative story, you always have a "guy" with a similar experience.
How come though?

From Google search:
The proverb in Yoruba is: Bi omode laso bi agba, ko le lakisa bi agba. Literally interpreted as: No matter the clothes a child has, it can never match the old (used) clothes of the elderly. Meaning: no matter the experience garnered by the young, it can never match that of the elderly.

Emmanuel900:
The truth is most of these women never love their husband in the first place.

They just settled for them because they have the fattest pocket and are able to fill the role of provider they need, so when they get to UK with more opportunities for women to make more money and empowerment, their husband become useless to them and they just want to bail out.

Bros, the bottomline is not if she loved you, the issue is never be in a position where your wife earns more than you, handles more responsibility. Oga once that happens, be her Mary magdaline or pastors daughter, her real colour will show. Let your wife pay school fees for once and see her tell people at work say na she de carry the whole responsibility for house. My guy that has been running his home, as he lost his job, wife paid rent and school fees, na so shege start. She went as far as kicking him out. He wanted to leave with his car, she seize key say na she get both cars now as the rent and school fees she paid pass the value of his car. She said na only him cloths be him property. Lol

EvilMerodack:


As what? Kigame would prolly address him as just "The Leader of Obidients movement in Nigeria", cause Obi is just Obi, more like Sabinus is just Sabinus


Looted Anambra funds(250M x 24+months) have been channeled into wasteful tours with close to zero benefits for any group associated with him

He's always looking like a misfit in all photos

One would have called you silly, but that may sound rude.
Someone as you said looted 250m, yet the same person left 75b in the bank at the end of his tenure, and unheard of fit in the history of Nigerian governance. Have you ever seen a thief that robs a bank then leaves the cash in the vaults?

mayor1814:
Osimhen needs to apologize to finidi George and victor ikpeba. It's how it's supposed to be.


Just imagine a young musician like Ruger or rema disrespecting a music legend like daddy showkey. It doesn't make any sense disrespecting legends/veterans that come before u in any sphere of life.

Bros unfortunately, reality is the cash, current is oga over the past. Nothing like respect for age or legend. That is why as agbalagba, one must respect himself and not put mouth when all the young turks are talking, unless they seek your opinion, never comment or advice before they tell you say if you sabi, why you no get money as the get? Lol.
Next thing they will say "yah papa" to grown man with white bia bia.
I understand that guy earns over £300k in 1 week! How is that possible? Howwww.. Abi is it monopoly money?

Cocolatti:
is your point that he bought it with government money?

Yes sir, he bought it with government money. It is his official vehicle.

Cocolatti:
The man was rich before becoming a Governor.

Is your point that he bought it with his personal money?

Angelfrost:
According to Apc... There are more than enough soldiers.


So, no cause for alarm!

As baba said during campaign, youths should be drafted into the army, they will clean and cock gun, all they need is to be fed cassava, garri, ewa, beans and dodoo..
Someone openly said that as a solution for employment of millions of naija youths, talking like a king whose subjects are slaves you send to your army to fight and die while his prince is buying £10m house and young daughters getting $2.5m flats in the best cities of the world.
Despite all that, the same Nigerians still voted for him, lots of them here, till this day still supporting the apc bunch of misfits.
In all sectors Nigerians are plunged into poverty daily.

Another bofun.

RhinoChest:
While I understand Mr Igbokwe’s complaint, I do believe that the infrastructures around electricity will only get better if the tariff is market-reflective.

It’s no coincidence that since tariff has gone up, Genco’s have ramped up production and we want that trend to continue.

Also, gov is struggling to pay subsidy, which would mean more debt and poor infrastructure around electricity.

Once the super grid are on board, and metering gap is reduced, you would see more liquidity in the market, which would mean more competition, thereby lowering cost in the long run.

Mr President should tell oil importers to use their huge capital to transition into becoming Gencos, as electricity industry is going through a revolution and will be awash with liquidity very soon. They should let local refineries thrive.

NNPC just announced they are about to build a new power plant. This signals that increase in electricity tariff is already attracting investors.

you do not understand how Nigeria works.

toneroforever:
After Joseph made life easy for the Israelites in Egypt, a pharoah that know not Joseph arose and tormented them.
Similarly, during Jonathan foreign rice sold at N8,000 but under this Nigerian pharoah's regime, Big Bull rice is now N80,000+
Dollar sold for N200, today it is N1,600.
Fuel sold for N97, today it sells for N1200 to N1300.
Electricity tariff is outrageous.
Higher education tuition is extremely expensive.
Super pack indomie was N40 to N50 in 2014, today it is N350 to N400.

God please send our Moses, this guy is terribly heartless, insensitive, clueless, cornfused, deceptive & divisive.

Bros, unfortunately, he may be reluctant to so send another moses as Nigerian will call his messenger all sorts of names, label him a criminal, attack his ethnicity. Same thing will happen if he goes as far as sending his only begotten son.
Our dilemma is self inflicted.

Let him make it 5k, Nigerians will still buy. Some here will say he built Lagos and is building Nigeria, just as they praised buhari till he left the country as he did. Mind you after making it 5k, give him 6months tops, they will tell you they are paying subsidy and it should be 10k.
Meanwhile na to change our suv, for smaller cars to survive. The cheapest place to buy motor na UK. Problem is that you have to convert it to left side drive.
Now, even if you buy a cheap £1500 car, used £1k to ship, that is already 5m. You will probably use 4m to clear, that comes to 9m! Another 500k to convert ie 9.5m!. The same car would have cost you 900k back the 2015 when these apc charlatans, misfits, spreaders of mass poverty, criminals, crooks hijacked the country.

Catechizm:
The example you use isn't giving credence to your point and here's why, a 10 year old vehicle used by two individuals with different maintenance practice would be in different working and physical conditions and this has nothing to do with their skin colour but has everything to do with their approach to maintenance as individuals.

There are white men who are as careless as carelessness can go and also black men who are as meticulous as being meticulous can be and vice versa, it has everything to do with individuals and nothing to do with skin colour.

Yes the black society is known for its poor maintenance culture but as I have maintained this has everything to do with our lack of proper approach in that regard as a people which can be changed, it's a habit that is picked and can be dropped (as individuals), a culture which can be changed or abandoned ( as a people), but it is certainly not a function of our DNA as though it were something embedded in every black person naturally.

Dna is used as a metaphor in this context.

Metcheew, the topic led me to read, expecting some real life tori.

numericalguy:
No one is above mistake.

The people mocking the APC candidate are obirodents who kept qouet when Obi was making blunders during last year elections.

Five times Peter Obi quoted wrong figures in public
1) Claim about the number of Nigerian players at NBA
2) Claim about Nigeria’s total export in 2021
3) Nigeria had only two million vehicles, 10 per 1,000 as at 2018
4) Claim that as at 2018, African trade is less than 9% and oil gives 80% of our forex
5 Bank loans are about 15 per cent of GDP… China is 250 per cent of GDP

What brings obi inside this matter?
You better go to church this Sunday morning for prayer, or better still go to bar beach and wash head.

Catechizm:
Alaye integrity has nothing to do with skin colour and your value set's got nothing to do with your DNA.

Oga, the whiter you are the more different. Take it or leave it.
Eg, look a 10 year old vehicle used here in naija by a white or half caste person and compare it to that used by the average naija black guy for the same period of time.
If you are given the option to buy the vehicles, who's will you buy?

xjiggy:
A yatch/boat/ship will normally fly the flag of the country it was registered. It doesn't actually needs to be owned by the Government or leader of that country. We have Billionaires in this country with yatchs. I don't know the owner of this one but there's the likelihood it's privately owned also.

So the yatch was likely registered in Nigeria?

Tayorshd87:
What is wrong in this country that the poor cannot use escape route to make transactions all because u knew people are not using normal banks anymore due to their enormous charges now the OPAY people ran too yet u place fee on it again 🤔

So if people migrate to palmpay meaning in due time u Wil still tag 50 tax again 🤔

Nigeria my country 😏

I actually voted this man all in the name of he should replicate how he built Lagos not knowing Lagos is a room but NIGERIA is a big compound 🙁☹️☹️🙁☹️

Because of how he built Lagos? Guy, you funny.

Love800:
Are you saying the dangote fuel is good or bad?

It is good.
The early stage diesel may have had teething problems which must have been resolved by now. Or was it coincidence that my vehicle packed up after buying that clean clear diesel? Could it be that it was time for my injectors to fail out of normal wear and tear? Your guess is as good as mine.

It is not NNPC, neither dangote.
Maybe it is helinues or manna bbq fixing it.
Foto, no be juju be dat?

enemyofprogress:
it is also good for unwanted pregnancy

Lol

Scientists:
Guy you are scaring the shit outta me

Oga and other guys here, always have doxycycline closeby. Take a pill immediately any skin to skin nacking, it should not exceed 24hrs.
It will prevent most sexually transmitted infection. Eg gonorrhea.
It will not work for viral ones though.
Guess what? It is very cheap, N400 for 10.
Thank me later.

Pat081:
Useless people they will always find something bad to say about it so with is the advantage

There is nothing useless in expressing concerns. It is for people to get enlightened.
I wrote here sometime back of how I bought diesel, very clear, clean looking diesel, unlike the dirty coloured ones we were used to in naija. I bought a full tank around 11pm. The next morning, left by 4.30am and I had barely driven 20km when my injector light started flashing. On Lagos- ibadan Expressway I had to turn back.
My tank was drained, it was very clean, that was when I saw the diesel was not the usual dirty type we buy in naija. I found out it was from Dangote refinary. It was months later we heard the controversy of high sulphur content when that gov official supporting importation accused Dangote of high sulphur fuel.
Forget how much I spent, infact after changing nozzles it did not work, some started saying brainbox, some said to change the engine and injectors to manual one. I told them to stop. Bottomline, I had to import a vehicle specific obd cable from China to diagnose the issue. It was still injectors. It was fixed at great cost. Took over a month. Lots of money lost and business cancelled, all because I filled my tank with faulty diesel.
I even had to order service parts from UK at great cost to fix the vehicle.
On the positive side, Dangote is a country saver, but he has to endeavour to give quality fuel.

Quelme:
Useless world bank. Aside corruption, the IMF and world bank are the reason why developing nations are in a mess.

Tinubu will get it right. He is on the right track!!!

I assume you are being sarcastic.
If not, your thinking is part of the reason we are in this current mess and may continue to be.

Who you vote has consequences. Voting apc/buhari/tinubu 2015, turned the tide of progress to retrogression, poverty, disease etc. Putting Tinubu there further consolidated and rewarded failure of apc.
Who is in charge make a huge difference. As it is said, when the wicked is in power, the people groan, the opposite is when the righteous is there. A clear example was the few months osibanjo took over when buhari was on vacation in UK. Peace fell on the land, naira immediately appreciated, sars and that other dreaded security agency stopped their shenanigans, people were happy. Immediately buhari returned all reversed.
We currently are like the biblical pikins of Israel with a pharaoh bossing over us.
Question is do we ever learn?.

Hellinus, Manna etc buy it for 250, while I buy for 1000 as a non apc supporter.
