You haven't told us what he did or know for.
Grupo:


I don't know what you mean by successful but let me tell you about one of my uncles.

At a time, he was one of the richest men in my community.

In fact, there was a minister from my village in the 60s. This my uncle was competing directly with this minister. If the minister bought a car, my uncle would buy the same car.

As at 1965, when he was in his mid twenties, this my uncle already had a 3 storey building at Ikom, present day cross river state. Although the building was later destroyed during the war.

After the war, he rose again and went on the build even more houses, bought many more cars. And he never attended secondary school. I'm not even sure he reached standard six which is equivalent of today's primary six.

Heard one of the co-owners,in fact,the main man behind ALABUKUN was not formally educated. I've not verified it .So,I stand to be corrected.
But whoever said education would make one successful?

It is possible to make some money without education, but education is required to sustain wealth. Many of the so called uneducated wealthy men have a lot of educated folks around them to help grow, sustain and manage their wealth.

An illiterate that surrounds himself with co illiterates is in for doom.

Mohammed Indimi is a Nigerian businessman. He founded Oriental Energy which he is still chairman with net worth of $670 million. The guy didn't go to school but he gave a speech in Harvard.
I'm surprised to hear this

I thought he came from an affluent Hausa lineage

I'm shocked at this revelation

I would like to read more about this more about this man
