if he is doing this scalable fence that even temporaryhansel can push himself over he may as well have done chainlink

the fence does not provide any security

My point was not that everybody with a 10m car should do it.

He said its almost impossible, and I'm saying it's not.

I didn't so it because it's not primary for me now, and not because it's impossible.

If I do 5 trips to Benin, just deducting my fuel and maintenance expenses, I'll comfortably pay for a Comprehensive policy

at no point did i say it is impossible , but everyone has to decide what they will spend on and unless you have liquidity and plenty disposable income, comprehensive insurane will take a back burner

I remember the day someone told me to help him buy Original Hennessy at Trade Fair

I specifically told him to either ask his relative abroad to send it, as I don't know what a real or fake one looks like.

It's not too late to involve Death penalty on this rubbish

izzou:

No at all.

VDM team took those pictures themselves so if there is, he would have added it. Maybe he hasn’t gotten to that stage yet.

And he has spent 250 million?

His father has been a billionaire for donkey years and only has 2 children. I would be surprised if he is not worth 8 figures himself, and definitely would be a billionaire when all is said and done in the future.

Leave money talk, my main issue is not their disparity in age but the fact he allowed her ex husband to officiate the wedding. That's a violation blood!

Age is not the issue as she bore him a child this year therefore fulfilling the criteria for which you would want to marry a woman of child bearing age.

Ogbeni, stop yearning wetin you no sabi. Ogunlesi only became a billionaire after the Blackrock deal and that was in 2024. Una go just open mouth waaaaa

E don reach that level . Same punishment for bandit and kidnappers is what they deserve

Ibime:
Ogunlesi father is worth about $2.6 bln

I'm reading that Jennifer Meyer is worth less than $100m and her father is worth about $300m

So what gives?

She probably hold money pass am one on one. Daddy money is not same as him own money

I'm not one of those that advocate for men to start with a single mother or divorcee with kids but if you must, make e be with woman like that.

She's an asset to him sef.

Alcohol was very easy to quit once it became common knowledge that all these drinks are fake. Only thing I touch now is Orijin and that's a rarity. I no wan age like avocado and battle the problems that come with regular alcohol drinking at middle age talk less of regular fake alcohol drinking

There's no fake origin? Omoh the level of fake drinks in circulation is at all time high, Most serious companies import from outside the country, like izzuo said, e go too hard before you see original Hennessy,campari and the rest, they are all fake.

Do you think BlackRock picked the valuation of his company out of thin air?

The valuation has been there before BlackRock. It was a Private company and they have no obligation to declare it's value. It's when BlackRock buys it that its value becomes public as BlackRock is public. That's when Forbes can pick it up and calculate his worth from publicly available market information.

Ogbeni, stop yearning okpata. Whatever shares he owned in GIP before the acquisition were illiquid. If Blackrock didn’t buy, how could he have monetized? And you claim he has been a billionaire for donkey years? Wetin be this?

Is Rihanna or Jay Z valuation liquid? It's based on a valuation of their private companies . Liquidity.is not the same as net worth. If Kanye West was liquid, he wouldn't have lost billionaire status. Yet he was a billionaire without liquidity based on financial records he submitted to Forbes which allowed them to calculate a valuation on his illiquid company.

happy these videos are coming out and Nigerians are seeing it..I'll never forget the video of Fayemi talking about how it was all politics for them during that occupy Nigeria nonsense..

As young as I am, I come dey see throwback life..

Politicians are now using their tricks on each other.

The same way Tinubu promises constant electricity by all means

Even Tinubu knows that this one is a phooolish statement

Even Wike that has bragged to be all in all, only promised victory, not figures

2.5 million indeed, when your total registered voters is 2.8 million

As far as I’m concerned, wealth that is tied to very illiquid assets that the value can only be determined by what a buyer thinks it’s worth (or by Forbes) is not true wealth. In my opinion, Kanye, Jay Z, Rihanna, etc. are/were not true billionaires. Even they know it.

Now if the wealth is tied to stocks or assets that are publicly traded or assets that the value can be appraised independently (properties, yacht, gold, etc.), then I will consider those.

Speaking of Bayo, even if you went that route of Forbes and their vague calculations, how come he was never acknowledged as a billionaire until his ‘friend’ Larry Fink came and ‘bought’ their shares in GIP? That’s because even the Forbes people know that shares in the GP of a PE firm cannot be easily valued. The value of those shares are tied to the performance and value of the assets held by the fund. And the assets are not owned by the GPs but the fund that is majority owned by the LPs. Any loss on those assets wipes out the GPs holdings as the LPs are first in line in a liquidation.

I maintain that Bayo was not a billionaire for donkey years as you claimed he was. He was wealthy. Very wealthy. But not billionaire status wealthy.

From my little Hausa. The write up pretty much covered everything

One of the most insensitive spaces in this country has to be Akpabio's senate

"If you try to commit suicide, make sure you die"

That is the Nigerian Law for you, Suicide is a criminal offence and Sen. Ekpenyong is trying to call for an amendment, as insensitive as Akpabio's words were, they are the truth as far as Nigeria now is concerned, if you attempt to commit suicide make sure you die because if you don't die you will be arrested. Remember the man who attempted it months ago that was rescued from the lagoon? Eventually the fellow was arrested

I am not saying it's not a law. It's the insensitivity of laughing about it. What exactly is funny?

Shouldn't he have emphasized on them seeking help, or any channel of mental support, than laughing that you should better die?

Imagine seeing someone trying to commit suicide, and you tell him "You better die oh, or I arrest you".

More likely that Bayo is not interested in celebrity to submit data to Forbes

GIP valuation can be calculated within a decent margin of error and it won't be as powderpuff as Jay Z or Rihanna valuation which is based on vague brand valuations mixed with a bit of EBITDA multiples

GIP valuation would be on physical assets and tangible cash flows and not far from what BlackRock paid in consideration (usually within ~ 20% mark up on fair value).

It would have been based on:

(a.) Actual physical assets owned by the company such as shares in Ports and Airports

(b.) Multiples of EBITDA derived from Management fees for fund management of which GIP was collecting $750m in fees per year, plus their small share of ownership in portfolio companies (outside of the funds ownership). Companies in their portfolio generated $75 bln annual revenue. I don't know what percentage of their portfolio constitutes fund ownership and what percentage constitutes direct ownership but direct ownership is part of the mix.

Most countries have long decriminalized suicide and attempted suicide . Even Ghana our West African neighbors decriminalized suicide like 3 years ago or thereabouts. It makes sense that Nigeria joins the progressive countries that have decriminalized suicide.
