you see, oil is in the south, but northerner are busy making themselves very rich with the oil and southerners when they manage to eat what belongs to them they are called corrupt, that,s why hausa people will keep fighting for power, you are busy fighting goodluck who is from the main oil rich state, but you can hardly hear of someone from north being prosecuted except those under goodluck,s umbrella, hmmmm. the money abacha embezzled from oil, oyibo sef they tell us i no dey finish. so long as north is united and south is divided hausa will keep having this born to rule ,slavery mentality, oloshi

Hmmmm money people

So all I needed to see was DJ Cuppy and I had enough. Nigeria's most gini? that's a laugh!
All the blog hypes won't help hun, you need street cred and you don't have it yet. So strive to get it. If you use your name or dad's influence to secure jobs amongst his business associates, it doesn't qualify you a good DJ. Stand away from your family and learn the ropes from the professionals in the game or you will always be what you call yourself on blogs. I have no affiliations with any DJ.
I am just making common sense. And I honestly don't have it in me to beef so you don't run under anonymous as a guise ro reply me.
One love Sister.

All these ones have money, they can change their career at any given time and still get good jobs..... I really don't care about the list.

Quite interesting but more boring .... This is not inspiring, it's just a roll call of children from wealthy homes. This article is just a reminder that the listed individuals from wealthy homes are not actually idle and unproductive. When you're from a wealthy home no body expects you to be broke or except you've been disowned. Kudos to the kids of African Richest. Please Linda, don't bother doing any article on the kids of African Poorest. Biko kwa.
