do you have proof that the money is diabolical?

Wiseandtrue:

Not trying to burst your bubbles

But that money is still flowing doesn't mean it's not diabolical undecided

Secondly I remember his death like yesterday, he died through car accident and not poisoning okay

Get your facts right!

I wish the family the very best though

Ezego was a stupendously rich young man. He was in.the clique of those young multi-millionaire from Anambea in the 90's such as Chief IKB Igboanugo, Charlie Rolls-Royce, Bishop Okonkwo and Chief John Nebolisa who were all in 30's at the time.

The only thing I never understood about the man was why he built a tomb for himself at such a young age. A young millionaire should be enjoying life, not building his own grave. One of the major reasons why people speculated that he was a member of a cult was that he built his own grave knowing that he would make money very young but wouldn't live long

Read the comment very well. I never said it's diabolical neither did I say it isn't

Was I with him when he was making the money

The mysteries surrounding his death then is subjected to people's view and opinions

But one thing I know for sure is that he died in an accident not food poisoning as OP said.

Whatever it maybe I don't believe that the children should reap the mistake(s) of their fathers

Hence my wishing them well.

Success1020:
The truth be told is Victor Okafor known as Ezego of Ihiala made his money from business. He was the largest importer of Sharp and Panasonic electronics in West Africa in the early 90s. At 23 yrs old, he built the largest electronics warehouse in Lagos, with branches in Ghana, South Africa, Ethiopia, Egypt and Sao Tome. I know this for a fact because my uncles used to go and carry goods from his Lagos warehouse, with over 300 shipments entering Lagos ports a month. He imported in pieces/parts, then his assembly plant in Lagos will assembly them, cutting price down by 50% and removing middle men/distributors. That's where he made his billions and monopolized the industry. Panasonics and Sharp refused to work with any other person but him because of his incredible business acumen, success and unprecedented turnover for them. He made so much money that he didn't know what to do with it, brought the lavish lifestyle. Many suspect he was poisoned and never died from diabolical means as claimed. He died at age 34 yrs!

Ezego wife and kids today...the wealth is still flowing from his vast estates and business!

post=77888900:
HIS DEATH

 

On the 25th of December, 1999, death came knocking on Ezego’s door. But, he was not even aware in the slightest. Ezego’s birthday was on the 25th of December and it was his usual tradition to storm Ihiala, his hometown every Christmas for the double celebration (actually, it was a triple celebration: his birthday, Christmas and the New Year). His kinsmen and women in Ihiala eagerly awaited his annual homecoming which meant a lot of goodies for everyone. And so it was that fateful December of 1999. Ezego and everyone in his family were in high spirits and plans were fully made for the trip back home.

 

Ezego was in the habit of storming the sleepy, rustic hometown of Ihiala, impressing his people with his legendary wealth and affluence. Thus, the 1999 edition was no different. The whole of Nigeria would know that Ezego was in town. Some of the most sought-after musicians in the world’s most populous black nation were billed to entertain the guests at the most exciting galore of the year. Afrobeat maestro, Femi Kuti and his Positive Force Band were billed to dazzle the guests and rock the community to its very foundation.

 

To show how serious Ezego took the party, the moneybag personally visited the Afrikan Shrine to meet Femi Anikulapo-Kuti in order to ensure that all went on smoothly. The party was billed to start from the night of Christmas to the Boxing Day (26th) so Ezego decided to start his trip from Lagos on the 23rd of December. But little did he know that all his efforts were in vain. He was unconsciously planning for his own funeral. But what precisely happened? 

 

 

On the 23rd of December, Ezego left Lagos as planned, heading towards the southeastern region of Nigeria. He took off in a most flashy style, in a convoy of six of his finest automobiles. These included a Lincoln Navigator (1999 model), limousine, blue Porsche, Lexus jeep, a Cherokee jeep and a latest Honda. The interesting thing about that fateful trip was that Ezego would normally fly to either Enugu or Port Harcourt where he would then be driven in a convoy to Ihiala. However, the fatal rates of air crashes during that period claimed to have made him change his mind. The outcome was disastrous for the mogul.

 

For some unknown reasons, Ezego decided to get behind his Lexus jeep in the convoy and drive himself all the way from Lagos to Ihiala. But somewhere along the Lagos-Ibadan Expressway, the first trouble reared its nasty head. Trouble started when the Cherokee’s jeep’s engine became faulty. But Ezego was in a hurry and could not even entertain the idea of missing his schedule and arriving on time. So he decided to keep ‘managing’ the jeep for as long as possible. But by the time the jeep got to Asaba in Delta State, the car broke down completely in the oil-rich state. Now, things were not getting funny anymore. Ezego was obviously in distress. His people were waiting for him back home so the carnival would start in earnest but here was his car that he shelled out of millions of naira for, giving him the worst headache of his life at a most unexpected moment.

 

But you know how dangerous Nigerian roads are . Ezego did not want to leave his cherished automobile in the middle of nowhere in Asaba at the mercy of robbers. Not the car he bought with so much money. So, he bellowed at one of his boys to purchase a chain so the jeep would be towed. The lad returned with the chain, which was then attached to the faulty jeep. However, that was the beginning of his problem because Ezego was said to have insisted on towing the broken-down vehicle all by himself with him driving the Lexus pulling the Cherokee. So he was in front while another of his boys was behind the wheels of the Cherokee. Well, no one was in a position to argue with the boss, so they continued their trip until that fateful moment when they reached a spot between Ozabulu and Okija on the Onitsha/Owerri Road. At that point, they were just two kilometers away from Ihiala in Anambra State, Ezego’s hometown and their final destination, and that was when death decided to unveil his dreadful figure. 

 

Ezego reportedly ran into a damaged portion of the road while he was going down a steep slope and all of a sudden, he stepped on the brakes. The driver of the Cherokee behind him was caught unawares and as he was not even prepared for the sudden stop, he suddenly rammed the Cherokee into Ezego’s shiny Lexus, sending the millionaire tumbling down a deep ditch by the roadside. It must however be noted that there are some other slightly different accounts of precisely how the accident happened. 

 

Other reports stated that it was actually the towing chain between the two jeeps that snapped, thus forcing the Cherokee at the rear to ram into Ezego’s Lexus making him lost control and plunging into that horrible ditch. Immediately this happened, his convoy was thrown into a pandemonium. Those in his convoy made frantic and desperate efforts to get him out of the ditch and get him the most effective medical attention promptly. By the time they finally succeeded in getting Ezego out of the ditch, he had sustained a deep gash and his face was massively puffed up, thus disfiguring his handsome face.

He was rushed to the nearby Lady of Lourdes Hospital (where Ezego incidentally made a donation of N15 million naira a few years before the accident).

 

He was still alive and stable when they brought him to the hospital and all the medical workers went into an overdrive to save the life of a man they know as a mentor and generous giver. However, things got worse and to make matters even more frightening, there was no doctor on duty. By the time a medical doctor eventually showed up, Ezego was already bleeding through his mouth, he was having internal bleeding and was already in shock. All attempts to stabilize him failed.

 

At that point, his family members suggested that he be quickly moved to a better-equipped hospital in Port Harcourt. At this point, his tale becomes hazy as it is not known whether he finally died while he was on his way to Port Harcourt or while he was being prepared for a flight to Lagos from Port Harcourt. Ezego died on the 26th, Boxing Day. He was just 34.

 

You gave a true account of the tragic incident. I recall that several theories began to crop up. Example his dealings with the Okija shrine and a host of others.
