Where did it state that Olorogun's family was "very poor"? You people just like blind argument.

Apogee14:
bro the man was a missionary worker. Those guys who were shorts and ride bicycle around in those days. Imagine a missionary worker with children ? That's poverty. You people just like to hype things.

KunleMax:
I have also read that same wikipedia and don't see anywhere it was stated that they were "very poor". So unless you can provide it, SHIFT.

KunleMax:
Oga show us where wikipedia stated that they were "very poor". Don't shift goal post. You didn't see where wikipedia also stated that they are descended from a wealthy maternal line? Guy please shift.

Chief Peter Ibru was not a wealthy man neither was he a "very poor" man as you claim. The man was comfortable.

UncleJJ:
Wikipedia also says Nigeria was a sovereign state by 1960; when we all know that until 1963 the British crown still presided over Nigeria's affairs. Wikipedia is not peer reviewed, neither is it vetted by any expert. Its like telling me, your roadside furniture guy is the best person to ask how to roof a house.

Chief Peter Ibru went to Igbobi, worked in a hospital, married a trader
Micheal Ibru went to Igbobi, worked for UAC, began to trade with UAC

Dantata's mother was a trader all the way to Ghana
Dantata inherited his mothers trade, and pivoted

This is not Google/Meta money that is magically generated from electronic pulses. Even Google had first investors, Amazon had his parent, Meta had Saverin. Ojukwu had to work with John Holt, to notice the gap in transportation.

Stella blog 😅😅. Guy ehhh. It's no longer wikipedia? So this is what you deem an authoritative source? Mteew

If you had half a brain, you would ask yourself how you consider a chief nursing superintendent who sent all his kids to Igbobi college poor. This was privilege back in the day

UncleJJ:
Oga, I told you. You need to cite academic sources (reputable sources) for this information you are spewing.

I don tire for Naija. At least you did not cite grok or chat gee-pity

Apogee14:
Well SHEY you get the point ? 7 children, father was missionary worker who wear shorts and ride bicycle and mother struggled to sell fish in market to feed all 7 children

Humble beginnings. No wealth

iamL:
Which the whole Delta, how many places for Delta better rain fall? Metcheeeeeeeew.

Many people nor even know or send anything self, make una dey lie without hyping the lie.

UncleJJ:
Missionary workers were the only educated class, after the children of kings, and chiefs. Missionary brought education, bookeeping, technology, and more. Almost every successful leader or company in Nigeria has strong missionary connections.

The Anglican and Methodist Church brought education to Nigeria not Lord Lugard!

Oga stop rubbing shit all over yourself. Every body knows missionaries were the crux of development in Nigeria; whether northern or southern Nigeria.

In Lagos, two groups were predominant; the Amaro's and Saro's. The Saro's were missionaries, CBN governor is a Saro, while the Amaro's were famers; all educated by missionaries. Infact the missionaries educated most of Europe. Till today, the Catholic church sits on one of the largest reserves of wealth and real estate in the world.

Go back to TikTok and make content, so you can PH 7M to GH 24M

TheDemola:
But Goodie never die now, and Alex escaped the assassination attempt by Rogers. He died of illness

Apogee14:
Igbobi college has always been free education. 😏😏 Weyrey

naptu2:
Where did I say that Goodie is dead or that Alex Ibru was killed by Sergeant Rogers??

TheDemola:
You didn't say but including his name in the line up could be interpreted as such, as the others, except him, are dead.

ChidiKalu:
Yeah true. Agbara otor is ughelli LGA though.
