  14. There they go again. Nigerians praising and clamoring for ill gotten wealth and wonder why the core of the country is so defenseless when it comes to fighting corruption?

    Shameless! Someone that should be held accountable is now looked at as some role model.

    Your 
    "Popular Lagos billionaire business man, Global Fleet Group chairman, Jimoh Ibrahim, 44, who is into aviation, insurance, oil and gas, media, banking, properties etc, is set to open his 34-floor hotel in Duabi, where he also owns and rents over 50 flats in the city's very exclusive area" 
    is heavily involved in money laundry on behalf our corrupt politician. They use people like Jimoh Ibrahim to legitimise their illegal gotten wealth.


    Jimoh Ibrahim will one day end up in a western jail. Mark my word. He's part of the ruling elites and cabals syphoning money out of Nigeria and washing dirty money in Nigeria, Africa, South America, Eastern Europe, South East Asia and Middle East. He's a financial front man for our corrupt public servants, entrepreneurs, leaders, including the current occupant of Aso Rock and PDP politicians who are robbing Nigeria on a daily basis. 


    Jimoh Ibrahim wouldn't dare invest his or his associate's dirty money in the UK, USA, France or Germany. The authorities here are not fools. They will want to know about the source of the money, they will patiently investigate him and his worldwide "business" dealing, how he aquired his wealth, etc. To put it bluntly, it will lead to his downfall and his backside being jailed for a very very long time.


    People like Jimoh Ibrahim are how our rulers and leaders are using to cover up their ill-gotten wealth. They invest in him and his company and cos he's perceived as "rich businessman" he invests the money all over the world in his companies names on behalf of him and his gang. 


    The authorities in UK, USA, France and Germany are aware Jimoh Ibrahim. Jimoh Ibrahim is a money launderer for rent. You can quote me.

  41. He was late Mohammed Abacha's friend and he got a lot of contract thru him from his father.And now he is OBJ's right hand Man,so mostly he is fronting for him. FYI..... he treats his staffs like slave and any new company he buys the first thing he does is to slash salary and sack staffs without benefit eg Air nigeria

    ReplyDelete
  72. Congrats to him. When we hear a white guy doing it, we wish him well but when it's our own, we have negative response. It's the African thing. It's unfortunate, because that's what is affecting the whole continent, blacks in America too. We don't like to see other progress, we sometimes go out of the way to stop his/her success.

    I don't care to know how he made his money, all I know is, that's some huge investment he's doing. I will rather hear this than, some guy buying million dollar worth of cars, clothes, shoes, etc. just to show off.

    ReplyDelete
  76. This man's wealth is suspect. How did he get his money from in the 1st place? What was he doing 15yrs ago? Is he fronting for a group or cabal? Why are we so gullible in Nigeria? Why don't we ask questions? Are we so satisfied with our lot that we are prepared to let anybody Rob us blind? Me sef I tire o!
