Well, this candidate has used the same credentials to work at oil giant, Mobil, and also gotten the job of a senator and the governor of Nigeria's most populous, most educated, most diverse and richest State twice. Bellyaching over this is just joblessness. Nigerians did the same about Buhari's WAEC result- a man that rose to ebcome a General in the army o. Did it stop him?

We like majoring in the minor and minoring in the major.

You think forgery is a minor thing? Do you appreciate or understand what is major or minor in sovereign governance?

Crime does not have expiring date. Escaping with fraud a million times does not vitiate the fraud. He will still be called out when the issue comes up. It does not matter if he escaped at Mobil, Senate or wherever.

He was first exposed when he was Lagos governor by Gani Fawehinmi but Tokunbo Afikuyomi had to go beg Gani who fell sick shortly afterwards and died.

Don't bring Buhari into this; he produced his result (statement of result) from his secondary school and he had pictures of his schoolmates/classmates.
Can you show or mention the secondary schoolmates/classmates of the president?
All presidents in Africa and the world had schoolmates and classmates, except your own president. Shame no dey catch us again for this country?

Go ahead; celebrate your president as you like am since he measures up to your expected standards in integrity and trustworthiness. Or may be you never had any standards.

Case closed. Nothing more from me on this

For the good of us all, can you just take him to the law for these crimes you seem to be privy of? Please, do this and save the nation of the shame you spoke of.

These are the stuffs that dominated the political space leading to the 2023 elections and yet, y’all failed. Rather than restrategizing now for the coming elections, opposition is just going to repeat the same methodology that only ended in public crying the last time out. You see why I said the crying will be repeated again?

You see, the problem is that some of you people only see anyone and everyone pointing out issues about government as an ''Obi person'' or political ''opposition''.
No wonder respected Bishops are also being attacked as part of the ''opposition''.

I don't give a damn who wins or loses 2027! My consciousness and sense of reasoning are not limited to only election cycles!
But my consciousness and sense of reasoning demand good governance from whoever emerges president at any time!

I said it; you people can celebrate the president as you desire your president to be. I dont have issues.

Regency Alliance Insurance Plc

Group of people in a thread who celebrate and have no problem with criminality.
They are quick to point fingers to ceo of companies on ngx for mismanagement/ wrong doings. When the ceo of this companies fail to do anything right even delay in releasing results they are all over the thread making noise.
You have no moral rights to complain about anything wrong by ceo of any company if you have no shame for the drug baron

Okay. I plead that you ignore the second paragraph in that post. Can you, please, take steps on the first paragraph and save your “consciousness and sense of reasoning” from constantly being probed from the shame you’re so concerned about? You would be helping a whole nation if you do this?

''Consciousness'' goes with being conscientious. Integrity counts when you are conscientious.
But some people may not care. I don't know where you stand, though! Anything goes, right?
If so, best of luck.

Otedola grants first-ever interview since becoming First HoldCo Chairman
https://nairametrics.com/2026/08/03/the-femi-otedola-interview-why-im-betting-my-fortune-on-first-holdco/

He just stopped short of mentioning Oba Otudeko and co... something must be happening behind the scenes

No! I forbid that you resign to hopelessness and helplessness.

You can’t be so sure of such criminality and then feel there is nothing you can do about it. It’s not healthy for your consciousness and sense of reasoning.

Jagaban fit dey hide something but not presenting his OLEVEL shouldn't bi it in my own opinion... As for having Olevel or Alevel, he go get am...

And for Buhari certificate abeg make we no go there ooooo

Let's allow Buhari be joor

It beats me how people can openly level accusations and tag people with crimes that were not committed in their presence and of which no court of law has pronounced a guilty verdict. Just as someone here said, if you are so sure of what you are saying, kindly activate your rights as a citizen and approach the courts. Otherwise please shut it and lets have peace and talk stock market.

I have followed the ongoing international spat between Nigeria and South Africa and the SA talking ponts have been the cr@p fellow Nigerians put online about our nations and leaders, mostly unsubstantiated info. When you sell your nation by pushing cheap propaganda becasue you despise the people in power based on ethnicity, religious and political bias, you sell yourself cheaply and the consequences linger, continuing even when your anointed candidate occupies the office.

Make I use fear believe am sha... At least I still have plenty FBN

Namaster:
Nairametrics: You have built a reputation as an investor who identifies undervalued businesses, helps unlock their value, and, in some cases, exits after the turnaround is complete. Should shareholders view your investment in First HoldCo as a long-term generational commitment, or do you see yourself eventually monetising your investment once the bank reaches its full potential?

Otedola: The reputation and market opinion are not far from the truth. Yes, with respect to identifying undervalued businesses, transforming them, and unlocking value. The decision to sell, however, is not purely based on exiting like a private equity model but driven by market conditions and other personal objectives. However, the situation with my foray into and continuous investment in First Holdco Plc is completely different.

From the above, it goes without saying that First Holdco is a long-term generational commitment unlike my previous involvement(s). The free-market platform of the financial services industry and our commitment to internal reforms provide the basis of my huge investment and hence a long-term commitment.

This should put some people's minds at REST.

Plus, he concluded by saying he wants his LEGACY to be one of DOUBLE-DIGIT DIVIDENDS.

megawealth01:

He drew blood. The weeks ahead would be interesting ...here


In this exclusive interview, Otedola breaks that silence.




Nairametrics: When you made your investment, First HoldCo was carrying legacy challenges that eventually culminated in the record impairment losses reported in 2025. Was there any point during that period when you questioned your investment thesis, or were you always confident the bank would emerge stronger?

Otedola: First Holdco Plc was an institution on the brink. Before 2021, First Bank of Nigeria — the country’s oldest and once most trusted financial institution — stood at a genuine crossroads. Years of weak governance oversight had allowed unethical practices to take root at the highest levels of the organisation, culminating in a period where the institution’s stability was in serious question.


The bank’s loan book had deteriorated to the point where over ₦2 trillion in bad loans sat on its balance sheet — a burden compounded by a culture of recalcitrant and delinquent debtors who treated the institution as an outlet to exploit, obtaining credit facilities with little or no intention of repayment. The Central Bank of Nigeria found the bank’s capital position so compromised, and its governance failures so severe, that the institution stood on the verge of regulatory takeover to protect its over 30 million customers and minority shareholders.

In a decisive intervention, the CBN dissolved the entire board of First Bank and its holding company, citing breaches of regulatory directives, unresolved insider exposures, and a leadership transition executed without due process or regulatory approval.

I have noticed a few gamblers, hawking emotional stocks rather than pure fundamentals and objective performance whilst some aggressively defend terrible firms.... Some just derail into blogging.... Whilst some get aggro on the government during a lull in the market.... Well I didn't mention japaulgold Oando or ticking tickets...or accessible holders.... while not forgetting the executive assistants to CEOs in here.... Please tell Wale to free Peter....

Definitely Ote$ is under pressure behind the scenes.... Anytime you see a billionaire screaming to the media just like Dangote a few months back.... there's often a hidden fire under their thing

Yeah.. I guess so.

FBN has been improving both in share value and management.
