When you through this process believe me you will be able to handle money very well. But you see street money that 15m fit nor reach 6 months. No be cause but money that wasn't built by with reality of life will always vanished except you are very sharp and you don't fancy material things.

Its good to be good...

But then again,I know there will be one banny sitting and crossing her mumu leg somewhere by now, waiting for the innocent apprentice to come so that she can lure him into spending the money on her undecided

But I hope the young man will be wise enough to know the difference between fake love and true love from henceforth so that he can invest wisely.

The ingenuity of the Igbo is worth celebrating. It is not a coincidence that they are key players in the Nigerian economic landscape.

The apprenticeship system they practice had helped countless numbers of young men find their footing. It is commendable.

I was sharing something with my wife recently how a group of young men(all multi millionaires currently) in my location, got thier break. It all began with their boss, an elderly man now. He came to town in 1991 with practically nothing. But he started paper business. He had served in Onitsha but was settled and he moved to our town. He brought two boys with him. They served for years and he settled them. They went on to be even bigger than him with multiple young men under them. They settled those young men and those young men, all less than 35 have huge paper businesses of their own. One of them has a shopping plaza with 64 shops currently. Non of them bothered with formal education but how much education do you need to control tens of millions? With lawyers and educated people at your beck and call?

You will be hard pressed to find any shopping plaza in Makurdi, Benue state that isn't owned by an Igbo man. An Igbo man who set out with nothing really.

Diligent service pays.

Next thing this boy will do is to go to the village to go marry his crush.

One useless, lazy and good for nothing girl that's not even a virgin.
IMAGINE A GIRL THAT VARIOUS VILLAGE BOYS WILL HAVE ED AROUND LIKE FOOTBALL... HONESTLY, MANY OF THOSE VILLAGE GIRLS ARE NOT BETTER THAN THE OLOSHO HOOK UP GIRLS WE HAVE IN THE CITY...

Few months ago, if he said hello to her, she won't even respond, but because he's now a millionaire.....



Naso much of dem dey.

This is such a heartwarming story! Well It’s inspiring to see the Igbo apprenticeship system in action, that's their area of expertise 🫡 i love such, rewarding hard work and loyalty with life-changing opportunities.

The businessman’s generosity and the apprentice’s gratitude remind us of the power of mentorship and trust. A beautiful example of building generational wealth and uplifting others! And most importantly Hard Work Pays!!👏

For that to look like that, it means he was really diligent. Not like the one that is serving me currently, he has more clothes and girlfriends than I.

Meanwhile, the amount of money involves in settlement depends on the line of business and the worth of the boss(oga) , I know a boy that rejected 50M settlement, instead took his oga to court. I also know a man that settled his boy with 50ft full container of goods

Come to think of it, you don't see any Obinna's law, Mayowa's principle or Mensah's theorem in any foreign textbook. That means Africans contribute nothing to body of knowledge.

It's interesting to know that this Igbo business model is being studied at the Harvard Business School. At least Africa is adding something to business education.
