Man Buys 120 Buckets Of Paint, Discovers 46 Contain Water Instead by Glimpsetv(op): 9:43am On Oct 13
A young man who bought 120 buckets of paint for a painting job was shocked to discover that 46 of them contained nothing but water.

The buckets appeared normal, with their lids sealed and labels intact. However, when he started opening them, he discovered that some of the buckets contained water instead of paint.

A video shows the man opening the buckets and pouring out the contents as people gather around to watch. Some of the buckets spill water onto the ground as he continues checking them.

Out of the 120 buckets he purchased, 46 were found to contain water instead of paint, leaving him with a significant financial loss and a possible delay to his work.

This is what you experienced from local paint maker.

By the time the Chinese paint maker arrived the market you see the culprit crying on how Chinese are taking their business.

Na was oooo.

But, the weight of paint and water is not same na. The formal is heavier. If he was used to paint and inquisitive, he would have noticed the fraud from where he went to buy it.

Go ahead and cut your nose to spite your face. So there are no indigenous paint makers in Nigeria for you to call for a Chinese invasion…? No fear, it go reach your side eventually. One day Chinese people go start to hawk agbo and do agbero for Lagos.

Corruption inside of human. Everyone of us has it but the goodness is that, JESUS has come to save us from it if only we can come to HIM. Will you come to HIM or you will allow that corruption to continue growing?

We are a reflection of our corrupt politicians. Snake can only birth snake.

If 60% of our population is sincere, honest, truthful and humanitarian, Nigeria would have been far more a better and advanced society just like Korea, Malaysia, Singapore etc.

The political class will never have the audacity to commit crimes of self enrichment by corrupt means. Our elections would have been credible, free and fair. The masses would have been the ones defending democracy but today Bola and Wike are the ones defending democracy, arrogantly telling us to our face how they rigged election, promising to rig again and nothing will happen.

See ordinary paint maker, then imagine the policeman, the trader, government worker, talk more of the politicians.

Nigeria is irritating honestly.
