Someone should explain how a leg amputation can lead to death when the person does not suffer from diabetes.

SarkinYarki:
Dangote failed to airlift the girl out

RISQUE:
Why didn't Phyna airlift her sister and Sue Dangote ? Why wait? Now the sister don die. All these people sef.

DANGOTE!

As a Nigerian, the only thing I can benefit is to claim we have the richest person in Africa from my country

Other than that, zero help to me, zero impact to an average Nigerian. Or wait, negative impact to nigerians, he remains killer dangote. Richest man in Africa that cannot hire competent divers and compensate them well.
Richest man that working in his company is equivalent to slave labor.
People working in his companies cannot boast of having a good life

There are 3 Ps of a good company. Profit, People (employees and consumers) and the last P which is Planet

This means, as much as a company should stay Profitable, they should have positive impact in the lives of the People-- Compensate employees well and let the wealth distribute... Working in Mobil/Total/NLNG for example, the staff are well compensated and the wealth distributes to their families making the world a better place. Lastly, the Planet...Meaning you dont destroy the enviroment while runnning your company.


Unfortunately, dangote is only successful in one P out of the 3Ps. which is the Profit.

The People: Dangote is a disaster and a failure in this aspect.....His staff are not well paid, overworked and worst of all he has a terrible control process to ensure safety of lives and properties...Dangote alone has crippled and killed thousands of innocent nigerians over the years. His consumers have been heavily punished through monoply and high prices of cement and petrol. The price of petrol doubled the moment he dipped his hands into it, a coincidence?

The Planet: a total disaster in this...He exploit the planet, invest heavily in digging and breaking up the planets yet he is not giving back...


So Dangote, congratulations! enjoy your title as the African Richest Man, you are great in that aspect but you have failed in the other aspects that matter too...You will leave this planet in few decades and you will never be able to take the title with you not even a pin...

And to me and many others who don't worship money, YOU ARE NOT GREAT!

Nigeria social media would buzz tomorrow. Those who got involved didn't handle the issue well.

VDM and the sister really messed up. A life was at stake and they were doing those shenanigans on social media accusing each other.

You can’t blame vdm at all, vdm was the one taking this issue seriously, even than the owner of the problem but that phyna wants to use the case to cash out. She was never serious about it.
