The day politicians and private owners begin to see Nigeria as their TRUE home, that's the day Nigeria will be a better place.

Black skin is a curse. I regret the day I was born as a black man, I wish I was a white guy. Even the white Africans among us (morroco, Egypt etc) are doing far better then we the real Africans. Why? Why?

In 2026 we are still crying to the government for Ordinary stable electricity, bad roads everywhere, etc..

Is not as if there is no money to get these amenities done. the money is just looted and embezzled everyday for personal use.

Black skin is cursed with greed and selfishness.

Lolz, reason i laugh wen i see people saying a particular person or group will come amd save the country.

An average black man is inherently greed, wicked and love to dominate and be worship by others. A black man love seeing other suffering, he care not about anything but only himself. He would rather embezzle what belong to his community, impoverished them order for them to come and beg him for crumbs.

Until we remove a reason to steal, black man amd his society will continue to remain at the bottom of the ladder in the world.

Mostly belonging to the corrupt politicians and other shadowy figures he laundered for. And not just him, but the other nonsense characters in the polluted Nigerian banking industry (including the popular ones flexing their bald heads all over the place). The sleaze is disgusting.

All bank owners are modern days Colonial masters, they have enslaved their workers.

majority of bankers can't even point out what they have achieved after working for 20 years in the bank.

They have been USED from their youthful age to old age,,, helping another man aggressively to build his dreams.

So sad

He has link with many Nigerian politicians.

I am struggling to understand these sort of lamentations, I had to scroll up again to read the headlines to know whether the late entrepreneur stole in the UK or refused to invest in Nigeria or whether it was only the UK he invested in ..

Those 106 properties can create a city in Nigeria the size of St Kitts and Nevis of 50,000 occupants

Thanks for all this analysis bro, but vanity still remain as vanity no matter what, , so what the necessity to motivate or sacrifice to create great efficiencu that u can not be buried along with. Instead let all stop being greedy to make life more a better place for poor masses.

anonimi:
Vanity is necessary to make sure people are motivated to sacrifice immediate comfort to create greater efficiency in the use of resources to make life better and easier for everyone.

If we don’t give vanity rewards of different types to innovators, creative people, researchers, entrepreneurs etc then how will the society develop and evolve?

Meanwhile do you know if Buhari was buried with his own stolen properties? Or whether other leaders looters of the worst rogues in Oshiomhole’s Assembly of Past Criminals, APC will be buried with their London properties?

Abeg God, make my own turn come ooo

Not really, l have nothing against the guy, l say that all the time to both the rich or the poor, it is an expression that is valid for all and it is my personal opinion, so move on

Exactly!

They are all thieves but i don't blame them, the weak financial regulations allow this madness to happened.. All unnecessary charges should be abolished by the CBN and people should be collecting interest on thier savings

who was the cbn govornor that empower them? Or are u saying federal govt should forget democracy and take over all factions, govornors, judges etc and control them by the President. No more democracy just like China. The center should control all and all

One reason I love dangote
Someone I know who have been working with him , said aliko nor get property for outside Nigeria, he even said it, two property na him get, one In Lagos, and kano
Invested heavily in Nigeria, and outside Nigeria but those investment are In Africa
Nothing wrong if having a property outside, but if u really wise u go make Nigeria a better place, did they buried him in London or ph

bcus Herbert na ur guy. Now there is nothing wrong in have 106 highly property outside. The way he acquired the money to get those properties no consign you. But if too say no be ur guy, he for consign u abi

Vision101:
They make money in Nigeria but they will not invest the money in Nigeria. 106 properties in foreign land and just a handful in his native land where he made the money. That's why I love Dangote.

make money how, or they stole money

Possible frontman for politicians.

That is it.

As someone who worked in a bank and got to a higher-up position before leaving...I keep telling people who care to hear that you CANNOT fight corruption in Nigeria by looking at politicians alone. You MUST beam intense searchlight on the banking and financial institutions because almost all the financial corruption happening in the country pass through them.
If you see the kind of kukere transactions and emails I receive every other time from "above". And them no dey talk too much o "kindly treat and ensure". All those ED's, RD's, MD's, Directors and even branch managers are living and breathing CORRUPTION!

😃😃. Some of them are able to build their bungalows to ‘taste’, at Owode-Iyana Ilogbo, Orimerunmu, Gberigbe, Oko-Afo etc.

My brother was lucky to have left banking job during Akingbola saga. He has, since then, been on his own and partnering one foreign audit firm.
He always thanks God that he was affected by that retrenchment, till today. He was a senior manager at head office of Intercontinental Bank then o.

A lot of them are still there, wasting away in starched clothes. Anyways, men among them have access to numerous opuehs who come for different banking services. Let that one be there hazard allowances.

No comment 😔. Yet people like him will be flaunting their wealth all around churches.

Banks in Nigeria and corruptions are like 5 & 6..

jojothaiv:
Exactly!

More ororo on your head, you purely understand what I was driving at, not at the dead guy himself because he didn't offend me, Rip to him, l was making a GENERAL STATEMENT that instead of wealth and material acquisition, we( including ME) should rather help more people that are going through acidic lack and poverty in different parts of the world rather than have 7000 houses in Los Angeles, but again, it is possible that the late Guy helped people, during His lifetime.

I like what Apostle Johnson Suleman is doing, l am not a member of his church ooooooooo, but he feeds 2,500 people every week in Auchi with good, correct balanced diet meals, per week, if l am God Almighty, regardless of Apostle Johnson Sulemans errors on earth, l will allow him to enter Paradise ooooooooo mucheche Hahaha 😂

Ordinary Banker. Thief

Gbamsulotey, let me digress abit, l have a Custom officer as a friend and we were close before l traveled out for further studies in North America.

To summarize, after studies, l visited Nigeria before l traveled out again, l was shocked to see this same poor struggling Custom officer, now has More than 9 State of art vehicles, several properties, a company etc and he has retired, l heard from the grapevine that, he was transferred to Port Harcourt and on arrival, they allowed all kinds of Containers , carrying exhibits to enter Nigeria, by exhibits l mean Arms and different contrabands etc , he made a huge killing via corruption and today he is super wealthy, my guy l don Taya for Nigeria mata, in my personal opinion, Nigeria is irredeemable ooooooooo

Lemme share a secret with you.

Do you know there is a man in Nigeria that has put this to practice and even someone like dangote decided to emulate. He used to. He said it but one day, he decided to change the narrative and that happened cos he took a cue from somebody. Many may not admit it but there is one person that serves as an example to others, and i will share that person at the end of my comment. Before that, i want people to understand this, wealth is a tool like every other inanimate or abstract object. It can be used in a good cause like building a system that works or be used for evil like destroying or enslaving a system such as the one Nigerian politicians are doing. That is why we need to change this government and put a government that understands how wealth can be used. The last time, it was Alao Akala with almost 100 properties. Even someone like Malami, Emiefele and several other politicians out there. The ones in government today are even worse. The day you start hearing of Tinubu's properties, shettima, Akpabio's, gbajas, and all of them, you will ask yourself, will they carry this monies and properties to heaven? Wealth is meant to be distributed, so when you are blessed to a certain level, the smartest thing to do is begin to redistribute and channel the wealth so that not only will you live a peaceful life but an impactful one too.
Neway, back to the person that Nigerians need to respect with regards to topics like this is Peter Obi. He is a wealthy man just as Herbert was but instead of stock piling properties, he has shown more prudence and I am pretty sure must have influenced someone like dangote to follow suit. He is at par with the likes of dangote. Yes, even though the figures of his wealth is not in public space. PO is the exemplary lifestyle Nigerian leaders should emulate both in private and government life. If you not using your wealth to build better and stronger society, atleast use it to impact people's lives positively. Wealth is not.meant to be stored, it is meant to be shared responsibly

The truth my brother is, dem just pack sand and ashes from the crash site into those coffins , did you see them open them when they arrived. RIP to the dead , lessons for those that are still living

Dude was simply fronting for corrupt politicians. He’s not the owner of all the 106 properties.

A real time business man who isn't into real estates won't have so much properties.

Elzazzi:
They will be on lease or he sells them out later on. That’s real estate for you bro.

Tinubu owns half the houses and lands in Lagos state

Judolisco:
Na God know how many e go get for Abuja and Lagos.... U go enter Abuja and you'll see virtually empty estates... Omo.. One day Nigerians go vex enter those houses and start living in them

Im telling you. A lot of unoccupied houses across major city

Jamie248:
They can never ever see Nigeria as their 'true home' when everywhere literally looks like a dung-hill

If you visit a society where their systems works you will naturally want to transfer your life there to safeguard it, along with your descendants and business interests...the other day we saw Otedola riding a bicycle in Singapore, he can't do that even on Banana Island (Nigeria's prime residential community) without a real risk of being murdered by careless/selfish motorists

Even Dangote for all his faux patriotism has his Family Office hidden somewhere abroad

We are talking of ill-gotten wealth, you are talking of life style.

Will someone stèä! all Wigwe’s property, if he had them legitimately in Nigeria?
Why hasn’t government taken over his university? It’s because he could defend that.

You should have defended him that he preferred where he would get higher return on property investments and that after he must have bought those properties legitimate.

Baba was doing round tripping when he was alive. That’s where he got his wealth.

Why did he go and establish Wigwe University in the UK? He knew he would need to cross so many hurdles and spend a lot before he could meet UK standard of running a university.

Those properties were bought by fronts. We still have a lot of Wigwes in our banking system who have made billions of us, while you are I are busy crying over fuel price.

You may be cursed and be pronouncing curses on your head, but I’m quite blessed.

I am certain he made a lot of cash during Buhari's 8 yesrs in power.

The subsidy of the dollar made many super rich.

All the well connected had to do was to purchase dollars at the official subsidized rate and sell at the market rate in the parallel market, and you make a massive profit.

Hmm, 106 properties in London that definitely substantiate Bode George claims.
It is rather unfortunate.

Christistruth00:
Baba Bode George has already told everyone what they need to know about Wigwe
