Read what Nigerians have to say about it…
Logician – People read but don’t comprehend. In a
nutshell, the guy is in the process of getting richer. He knows what he
is doing. I’m sure he is even the one mopping up the bonus shares below
200naira. After the mopping up the share could hit 400naira and his net
worth would be reviewed
omoadeleye – Wow… $400million shocked me that just
mistakenly lost 2k today, i dont know maybe i should be giving myself
hope or something else, lolz. Dont knw how tomao gon be… But your money
is too much baba, may God replenish your loss sir.
youngeagle – This is not funny…because he is a
billionaire that’s why they noticed,they should come and carry out such
evaluation on the millionaire and thousandnair they will cry for my dear
country.
moredollar – Who Otedola epp?
zonax – The comments here though. Every …..can
attest that he (Otedola ) is just being a wise businessman and investor.
Investors selling out of panic, baba Otedola buying calmly (certainly
using others) which he will resell to those same people at even higher
share prices when they get over their frenzy (cashing in), increasing
his portfolio and creating even greater wealth. Only few will
understand.
mmsen – This man has lost and gained fortunes before – he’ll be fine in the long term. I’m sure he’d be better off they’d pass the PIB.
ibraheemlamar – I dont knw how you feel ryt nw mehn n I dnt care to know…i just love dat ur daughter cuppy
KINGDOS – Thanks to Buhari now killing business with economic terrorism and killing people with political herdsmen. Sai baba my foot!
tosan200 – Chai!! why am in the
same country with this people, look at them blaming Buhari. Bloody
educated illiterates. Otedola i salute you.
ghands – You will bounce back stronger than ever in
Jesus name. May God restore all that the locusts and cankerworms has
eaten. See you at the top.
Deepfreezer – as at Febuary 2015 his company hit all
time high success and growth. fast forward today. $400million lost and
investors/ share holders are scared. everybody now want to pocket their
money all because one incompetent Nigerian is in power. shame to
zombies.
davidque007 – Why is everyone shouting that he has
lost plenty money as if he has become broke. The guy is still worth $1.2
billion dollars and he can easily gain that money back in the same way
he lost it.
jtwest – God lemme too reach the stage where I will
lose $400m in 9 months and I will still have enough wealth that I won’t
be moved. No high blood pressure.
charix – Not my business in any way. He’s still filthy rich.
