I Have Never Heard any Wealthy Person Say ‘Money na Water’—Billionaire Businessman Cosmas Maduka Informs Cubana ChiefPriest, Others; Says Rich People don’t Make Noise

Nigerian businessman and founder of Coscharis Group, Dr. Cosmas Maduka, has condemned the growing trend of using the slang “money na water” to justify reckless spending and public display of wealth.

In a passionate statement, Maduka criticized the culture of throwing money at parties and flaunting riches, describing it as a “de@d value system” that corr¥pts societal morals and misguides the younger generation.

“I’ve never heard Tony Elumelu say ‘money na water,’ I’ve never heard Femi Otedola say it, and I’ve never said it myself,” Maduka stated. “When I attend a function and people start throwing money in the air, I quietly walk away. This m@dness must stop.”

The billionaire businessman lamented that modesty and humility, traits once associated with true wealth have been replaced by showiness and noise. He stressed that real money inspires humility, not arrogance, adding that the glorification of such wasteful behavior should be rejected, not celebrated.

“When we were growing up, rich people didn’t make noise. All these people making noise today never made real money,” he said. “We’ve embraced a de@dly culture and are now passing it on to our children. That’s not how to build a value-driven society.”

Maduka urged Nigerians to desist from celebrating ostentatious spending, saying the “money na water” mindset erodes discipline, hard work, and moral integrity.

True to some extent...most of these "money na water" crew get their monies illegally.

Word, say that again, word up. 👌🏽

Everyone cannot be the same. Besides, Cubana Chief Priest is promoting his brand.

Davido is also rich and sang about having #30 billion in his account.

Hard fact. Only the loose guarded opportunists who doesn't know the how to make and grow wealth makes such comment.

Showoff is part of celebrities branding and some of them need to show off to prove that

so CP na werin ? LENGTHY abi?

Thank God one of our own said dis....dis youths now r so quick to make quick money and they call it all sort of name ...dis is wrong....no wonder people don't value virtuous living anymore

Very true. Only average or poor people show off, just as a facade to make people think they are well-to-do

Truer words have never been said about this issue. Thank you sir.

I was at Computer Village to buy some software when I overheard a group of young lads barely 15 or 16 by the look of them openly discussing about clients, maga, and other fraudulent schemes.

What struck me most was how carefree they were, completely unbothered by the thought that someone nearby could be a detective or an undercover agent.

It’s truly disheartening that our value system as a society seems to be in shambles.

Truth. It is the poor that have no value for money. Thats why they can risk their lives by making series of bad choices and poor decisions

you spoke my mind walahi

Well said..
The ability to remain humble when having money and power is a rare gift.

SEE ONE OF THEM HERE. ONE PERSON MUST SUPPORT EVIL

This motivational people must understand everybody will and won't be the same

Money na water crooners are probably from entrainment industries where media publicity and taunts is a direct boost to their business, it takes nothing off their hard work or funds

Apologize:
SEE ONE OF THEM HERE. ONE PERSON MUST SUPPORT EVIL

I'm not supporting anything. My point is that all humans don't act the same way. You lots need to understand our differences. People have different characters

I am happy that it is this man saying it.

I am more happy that he is rich.

... Happier that he is Igbo...

What did he just do now, Aproko

The term is associated to a poor man who is actually content because he never expected to be where he is and it is true that he can actually solve all his problems and still have some reasonable change in his account..

Leave Chief priest alone

What of cubana chief priest
