A surge in Amazon stock on the morning of July 27 has increased CEO Jeff Bezos' net worth by $1.1 billion, officially making him the world's richest person.

Aside from displacing Microsoft cofounder Bill Gates in the top spot, the new distinction could fuel Bezos' interest in furthering human progress through for-profit companies. And those efforts could produce big shifts in how the world's wealthiest think about philanthropy.</p>
<p>"I think his activities to-date suggest he looks at some of his business investments as opportunities to advance social change," Jane Wales, CEO of the Global Philanthropy

In this retro series, Skyevibes.com bring to you the story of Emmanuel Nwude who committed the largest fraud in the country by selling a non-existent airport to a Brazilian for $242 million between 1995 and 1998. The rise of internet fraud commonly known as 419 is one phenomenon Nigeria has come to be associated it. Before internet fraud became a global issue, Nwude had committed one of the biggest scams in the world. Specifically, his fraud was the third largest banking scam in the world after the Nick Leeson's trading losses at Barings Bank, and the looting of the Iraqi Central Bank by Qusay Hussein. How was Nwude able to carry out this jaw- dropping scam and convince Nelson Sakaguchi who was the director of the bank to part with so much money for the purchase of an airport? Nwude was a former director of Union Bank of Nigeria and this position made him privy to some links, information and documents that other persons would not be aware of. He impersonated the then governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria, Paul Ogwuma, and connected with Sakaguchi informing him of a mouth-watering deal of Nigeria’s plan to build an airport in Abuja. Nwude, pretending to be the Central Bank of Nigeria governor, told Sakaguchi that he stood of chance of pocketing $10 million commission when the deal passed through. Sakaguchi paid $191 million in cash and the remainder in the form of outstanding interest. Nwude’s accomplices were Emmanuel Ofolue, Nzeribe Okoli, and Obum Osakwe, along with the husband and wife duo, Christian Ikechukwu Anajemba and Amaka Anajemba, with Christian later being assassinated. The criminal gang was able to convince the director of the Brazilian bank to part with the money. How did Sakaguchi find out he was a victim of one of the largest scam in the world? In 1997, the Spanish Banco Santander wanted to take over the Banco Noroeste and a joint board meeting was held in December of that year. Officials of the Spanish bank noted that half of the Brazilian bank’s capital was at Cayman Islands unmonitored. This raised questions as this was two-fifths of Noroeste's total value. Investigation began and was carried out in Brazil, Britain, Nigeria, Switzerland, and the United States. Although the sale of the Bank still went on as the owners of the bank paid $242 million bill, the nak still collapsed in 2001. The birth of the EFCC In 2002, the then president, Olusegun Obasanjo saw to the establishment of an anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC). Nwude’s fraud case one of the first to be investigated and in 2004, all members of the gang were arraigned before an Abuja High Court on 86 counts of "fraudulently seeking advance fees" and 15 counts of bribery related to the case . Although they pleaded not guilty, they were warned not to attempt to bribe court officials as it was suspected that money was going round. In 2005, Amaka confessed to helping Anajemba and was asked to repay $25.5 million and also sentenced to two and a half years in prison. Nwude attempted to bribe Nuhu Ribadu, the then chairman of the EFCC, with $75,000 cash but the latter refused and Nwude was charged with attempted bribery as well as attempt to kidnap a prosecuting witness. Following Sakaguchi's witness, Nwude finally pleaded guilty and was sentenced to five concurrent sentences of five years and was also asked to pay $10 million fine to the federal government. He was released from prison in 2006 and filed a case to reclaim his assets insisting some of them were acquired before the criminal act. He has so far been able to reclaim $167 million. Aftermath A land dispute in the town of Ukpo in the Dunukofia area with Abagana community turned bloody when over 200 men invaded the community killing four policemen and the security guard at the construction site in 2016. The Anambra state government fingered Nwude as the ringleader and he was subsequently arrested and arraigned on 27 charges including murder and terrorism. He is being held at Awka prison as the court case is still on. While Nwude’s criminal exploit was not the first in the country, it signified the rise in international financial crime and popularise the advanced fee fraud syndrome with Nigeria's name associated with it.

- Primate Babatunde Ayodele warned acting president, Osinbajo that he is struggling with a cabal - He said God will see him through his challenges - The cleric said the PDP needs to step up as the party needs cleansing Primate Babatunde Elijah Ayodele has released new prophecies warning the life of acting president, Professor Yemi Osinbajo was in danger. According to The Sun, the popular religious cleric said the acting president was struggling with a cabal that wanted to see him removed.

Primate Ayodele also warned the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not to consider the victory at the Osun rerun election as a sign that it is back but should rather see it as a step in the right direction. He said: “The vice president’s life is in danger but God will see him through. “Many things will still be exposed about the plots against him. “There are so many things we don’t see now; the vice president is struggling against the cabal. As it is now, the villa is vacant. “We have just started. With Makarfi back in the saddle, PDP will be on its way to gradual recovery if they take the right steps. “As it is PDP needs proper cleansing. Makarfi can still bring the party back but if the party brings the wrong person for the presidential election in 2019, the party may not win. “The APC will now have crisis with Makarfi returning except they are able to put their house in order and re-strategise if the party is to retain power. “At end of the day, it may neither be APC nor PDP that will get the centre if they fail to present sellable candidates. I don’t want to talk about candidates now; at the appropriate time I will reveal that. “What I am saying is that Makarfi can still stabilize PDP. What happens in Osun does not mean that PDP is back. “They should reorganize the party properly and do the right in the party. At the same time APC is cracking. “If APC wishes to retain the Presidency, they should also ensure they put their house in order.” Meanwhile, the sacked national chairman of the PDP Ali Modu-Sheriff said the party is now in the hands of looters , Punch reports. Finally reacting to the Supreme Court ruling on the matter between him (Sheriff), four others and the PDP, the former chairman said the party has been returned to treasury looters. While speaking on the ruling, Sheriff through the spokesperson for the national working committee of the party's faction sacked by the court Bernard Mikko said the Ahmed Makarfi faction was wrong to have offered amnesty to the former chairman.

Take a good look at successful people around you today. Take a good look at those individuals being celebrated for their activities and deeds. Take a good look at those successful businesses around you. Something is obvious: It All Begins With An Idea!
Some ideas seem to be so simple and you can't but wonder: 'Why hasn't any one thought of them before?'
Some seem so 'strong', that you can't but also wonder: 'How could someone have thought of this?'
Nevertheless, for you also to be successful, you actually need an idea that will make you indulge in things that would make you successful.

Indeed, before you can be celebrated, you need an idea that would evolve into some acts that would get people baffled. Thus, you need an idea. And since those great ideas don't come on command, let us talk about some insights that can help you come up with your own great ideas, and be applauded for them.
Look Closely At What Is Troubling You
In the entrepreneurship world, you discover that the success of many entrepreneurs lies on the fact that they are providing a solution to a common problem.
Meaning, those ideas often begin with a problem that needs to be solved.

And, in case you don't know, they don't usually come when you sit lazily around, wasting time with frivolities and pleasures. Instead, they tend to reveal themselves while you're hard at work on something else. Thus, keep yourself busy!
Yes, start your brainstorming with problems that you are personally invested in.
Building a business; building a brand; or coming up with an invention isn't too easy. Thus, you actually need to have a relentless dedication that comes from personal passion.

You see, great ideas and innovations come from executing your idea in a different way other than how every other person does.

You know, as humans are often faced with obstructions hindering their desires, each individual will want to bring out a solution to grant them their desires. And many times, there is always a 'usual way' of doing it. Thus, a great way to get splendid ideas is to look outside your immediate society to see how others are solving similar problems.

Many successful innovations you see today in America and Europe were inspired by what their founders saw in Africa. Similarly, many things you see being done by many African countries today are being inspired by what we see the whites doing in their own continents.

Those innovators look at how the solution flows in other continents, amidst those of different culture and beliefs other than theirs. They gaze at the similarities and differences of things and approach making it work amidst their own people.

What you should know is that every individual (including you) have their creative side. However, many of us tend to ignore our creative sides until we really need it. And when you are ready to look at things from a perspective which many people around you are looking, then something different is coming into your mind.

Whenever you are faced with practical problems, always take note of them.

Whenever you desire using a product that you can't find anywhere, take note. Whenever you desire a service that you can't find anywhere, take note.
Then ask yourself 'Is this a problem i can solve? And yes, you can go around to see (do research) if there are people who need similar solutions.

And don't forget, as said previously, the solution might exist in faraway continents. You can simply gaze at how the product or service works there, and bring a brand that will soothe folks around your own immediate surroundings.

Search For Better Way To Get Things Done
Whenever you use a service that frustrates you, don't just keep ranting and hissing. Ask, 'What is this lacking; and how can it be fixed?'
Whenever you use a product that didn't fully satisfy your need, instead of ranting continuously, if you need ideas to bring about great innovations, simply ask yourself 'Which better way can this be done?
Remember you don't even need to be a manufacturer before you can bring an idea of a classic idea that will make you a millionaire.

Now That You've Got An Idea
So, what next? You know, we typically think these great ideas as the thing that sets these great innovators on the path of success. However, an idea is only an idea (and unknown) until you actually do something with it.

Now, my advice for you is; Capture the idea; Grab the idea; and keep running with the idea (irrespective of the hindrances you will surely encounter)
Does this makes sense to you? Let me hear from you via comments.

The Love of money is the root of evil (1 Timothy 6:10), but the fear of recession? In hard times like this a lot of people, especially the youths can do anything just to meet up their needs. Welcome to the world where desperate youths believes in ‘Get Rich Or Die Trying’.

Few hours ago, a post was made on Facebook about HushPuppi and many people were desperate to know the source of his wealth. Majority said he got his wealth from internet fraud while few said he sold his kidney.



Been heard that he sold his kidney, A desperate young man named Tom without hesitation declared his kidney for sale.

He stated “I don’t f..king care brother. I want to sell my own kidney too plssssssss”. He was referring to Philip Mbakwe who seems to know much about kidney business and who MAY also be an agent in the business.

Our world is stuffed with rich people, but the spotlight is always focused on those who come from our country or even region. Now out of the echelon of wealthy Nigerians stands out just one man – Aliko Dangote.

By all standards, Forbes Magazine delightfully captured him thus:

“As of February 2017, he had an estimated net worth of US$12.4 billion. Dangote is ranked as the 67th richest person in the world and the richest in Africa.”

I know you must have read much about Dangote’s chains of flourishing businesses spread across Africa and beyond. There is equally no shortage of literature on the secrets to Dangote’s wealth.

Indeed, Dangote’s is an astute business man with high sensibility and skills of an apex entrepreneur.

But I want to point out just one other thing.

While the world attributes his riches to the union of companies he owns, Dangote will in his heart ascribe the source of his wealth to you.

You are the consumer. You are the customer. You make it happen for Dangote.

Dangote businesses consist mainly of manufacturing 11 consumer goods. Each of these products is produced in millions of units/tons daily. And you know what? All of these are manufactured with only the consumers in mind.

Why are you this important?

Production is not complete until it gets to the final consumer. The customer makes the final decision to patronize or ignore a brand. Dangote’s business is dependent on your patronage.

He needs your loyalty as a customer to remain at the top. In the customer is not just a king but a creator, the customer was decently revealed as a creator.

Every business will ultimately rely on customers to create effective demands for their products and services.

That is the only way to survive in business. If you are looking for the real source of Dangote’s wealth, then enter the markets.

There you will find people buying the products manufactured by Dangote Groups. Those people are the true sources of his wealth. It is the money from their pockets that make up Dangote’s wealth.

Final note

Forbes Magazine may not have mentioned the customers in their description of Dangote’s wealth as it were. But that will never change the fact that the customers are at the center of the likes of Dangote’ and their riches.

We are writing this for one reason. Customers must always appropriate the right values to themselves. Customers must carry themselves with well-deserved dignity. You are the soul of every business conglomerate. And that can never be written off.
