DAVID HUNDEYIN IS A JOURNALIST I HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FOR AND FROM THE MOMENT HE PUBLISHED HIS STORY ON FLUTTERWAVE I KNEW THERE IS SOMETHING UTTERLY WRONG AT THAT 'FINTECH'. THANK GOD THERE IS PAYSTACK AND OTHER ALTERNATIVES.

You are right.

However, my point is that the Nigerian environment may not be as patriotic as some of the leading economies today who committed and are still committing several atrocities just to have the edge over others economically.

They deliberately avoid cannibalizing their own corporations, and even align their mainstream media to do major image laundering and propaganda for their nation’s good. That way they maintain the superiority of their interests and ideology even if negatively impactful to others.

Nigeria and Nigerians need to learn how not to wash their dirty linens in the public domain because image is everything in the international and business community. I hope this doesn’t affect flutterwave international ratings and partnerships eventually.


GreyLaw:


Let me tell you in case you didn't know. The corporation is fully aware of every misdeed. There is nothing like erring individual. The banks pay the fine and the guy fronting for the deal/insider trading/whatever other crime they commit becomes the fall guy. If things go well, the bank makes the billions of dollars and pays the criminal banker a commission.

I know this because I have access to such information. David seeking attention isn't a new thing. Every human being on the face of the earth does something to attract attention in order to make money or advance their career or whatever. He has done no wrong in exposing the criminals. Flutterewave won't fall. They will simply pay the fines, like every other criminal banking institution, and continue to be criminal until they are caught again and they pay the fine. The cycle continues.

STFU if you don't have anything to say. Why disparage your country this way when you can sense a racial undertone? Are you that dumb?
KENYA AND NIGERIA ARE BOTH BLACK AFRICAN COUNTRIES. SO WHERE IS THE 'RACIAL UNDERTONE ' HERE?

Vote Peter Obi to end fraud in Nigeria.
Peter Obi's bank is a custodian of ill-gotten dollars of human trafficking Mafia operating from Nigeria to Libya.
Money laundering is a big crime.

This is pure rubbish, it might be from inability to heavily tax the dear company.

Nigerians never fail to disappoint. Wherever we go, we go still find a way to carry fraud gum bodi.

It's still under investigation. Plus those people do not represent all Nigerians. There are countless doing us proud all over the world. But we are more eager to hear our bad news.
victorv12(m): 12:12pm On Jul 07, 2022
The financial companies from the Western world are behind this defamation. You guys should know that some Africans have stop using Western Union and MoneyGram for means of transactions which on the long-run as affected these companies. The Europeans gave us independence to be independent but refused to give us the financial freedom to be fully independent. The white man is behind this bullshit against Flutterwave.

It is like someone buying credit from their bank for someone else, there is no way to track who send it, if you ask the Telco they also can't tell... Unfortunately banking has rules and regulations ... Although I believe in this case , all the regulator need is to have access to their books, I don't want people jumping to conclusions without investigations. Iyin has been a pivot in the tech space and shouldn't be roast on social media.

David didn't do anything.

The s have been froozen before he wrote the article.

Btw, flutterwaves obviously has an issue with reparations of funds, that is why all these transfers to different s, also it obvious that there was no explanation for the transfer of funds.

The regulators will fine them.
They are about forfeiting the funds and you are talking about fines. For carrying out transactions below the threshold, its a serious red flag for any serious regulatory body.

The way flutterwave became a top fintech ehn, o never had any idea they could be trailed with this type of controversy.

I don’t think it’s their fault..

I think it’s the people using their platform to run illegal..

Like people do scam on Facebook but that doesn’t make the owner of Facebook a culprit..

You think the Kenyan government don't have enough information to prove that there were fraudulent and money laundering transactions on of Flutter waves?

Who should respect your government, good or bad, when fraud is involved.

I started believing David story about flutter wave months ago when flutterwave didn’t sue despite people dating them to sue. That would have happily sued if they were not running shady and illegal business.

These guys should leave Flutterwave alone na... They've really helped my business a lot...

People that sends money to other African countries using Get Barter will understand what I'm talking about

You're not the only beneficiary.

I was going mad over my inability to use my Naira debit card to buy things online. I even got a GTB dollar card and still no show. I even got a US PayPal which worked to a certain extent but my mind was never at ease when using it.

Barter.me was the game changer. I doubt this setback can kill the company. At the worst, the chief 3xecutives and board of directors may be replaced.

It would also be a lesson to them not to do business the Nigerian way when overseas.

Any Fintech of Flutterwave can actually fall victim. Sometimes as tech people we have no idea what our inventions might be used for. As a payment gateway, clean and dirty people would use Flutterwave for payment solutions. Perhaps, tech people who operate such platforms need to strengthen their capacities to detect and report suspicious transactions to relevant authorities.

When Yorubas commit crime abroad, they will be tagged Nigerians in this forum but when Igbos do the same, they are tagged Igbos. The hypocrisy is real.
grin "Yorubas" seldomly make the news for committing crime abroad. Same can't be said of igbos. Doesn't justify it, but it gives you a degree of understanding as to why it is so, sometimes!

when it comes to Nigerian businesses in Kenya ,they are a frequent target for Kenya government and officials looking for ways and means to extort or confiscate their money or properties .They dont respect Nigerians one bit
