My brother God bless you! You hit the nail on the head! What has he done that politicians have not done, worse even!
The question is not if Invictus has done right or wrong, the question is why Nigerians are condemning him with such glee! He's a criminal quite alright and should serve time in jail or whatever, but same Nigerians dragging him on Twitter for siphoning 12 million dollars are meek when Our Politicians swallow up our entire budget.
Double standards!
reason is because na who details catch na him they know. |

Do you write books?? semyman: The Invictus Obi's saga is disheartening not because another Nigeria yet again has been busted for fraud, it's disheartening because the rippling effect will be enormous. A lot of Nigerians are going to pay for yet another scandal by a single Nigerian.
Thing is Obinwanne was not just another average Nigerian, he had a CV and portfolio that was envied on even by the international community.
He was looked upon as one of the bright spots to come out of this dark hellish place called Nigeria.
Obinwanne Okeke (Invictus) was one of the supposed few answers to the damning question of can anything good come out of Nigeria?
Featured by Forbes as one of the Forbes 30 under 30. He's been on BBC, given a Ted Talk, Spoke at London school of Economics Africa Summit. Has a conglomerate spanning across many African countries dealing on oil, agriculture, infrastructure, solar energy etc. Had a lot of International awards celebrating his achievements
With this sort of portfolio and at 32yrs, he was seen as this bright spark coming out from a country that has more trends for despicable things than amiable ones.
Only to find out that beneath all this facade was a fraudster. A serial one.
An international corporate yahoo boy with suits and a great CV to match. Estimated to have stolen $20-$22million from US companies from 2011 till date.
There was always that gaping hole in his story about his start up capital that gave an itch of not adding up. But then we gave benefit of the doubt as we usually do even to our own collective detriment in a bid not to come across as a hater.
He fooled a lot of people and that for a long time. Make no mistake about it, he's going to pay for his crimes. But he isn't my concern.
You can't help but feel for other innocent Nigerians that are going to pay for the crimes of Obinwanne too.
Obinwanne would be in his prison scrub for a long time serving his time.
While other Nigerian out there will be getting Visa denied even after meeting and surpassing all the requirements.
Other Nigerians would have to work twice as hard to earn a modicum of trust and respect within the international community.
International organizations are going to pull out of deals the moment they become aware a Nigerian is part of the deal.
International airports will be a lot more hostile than they already are the moment they see you with that almost worthless green passport.
More companies will start declining cards coming from this part of the world.
Nobody wins here, not you, not me.
Imagine one of the few people who had earned the trust and admiration of the international community being busted for fraud. What is your fate being an average John Doe or Jane Doe?
While Obinwanne is going to pay for his crimes inside the walls of a correctional facility.
You are going to pay for his crimes in embassy halls, airports, business meetings, immigration offices etc.
It will be no fault of yours, you would probably have all the requirements but still would be treated as an infidel.

Only GOD can save you and why should GOD save you?? It might take long, but they will still find you. These Americans found Osama, Saddam, bengazi guy etc and na small boy they cant find.

~Prince Uzor Onyemaobi You have hit the nail on the head. Nigerians are such an emotional and foolish people. When I saw it being written by Tolu Ogunlesi, on his verified Twitter handle, it was clear that he was trying to mock a certain tribe in Nigeria. But the repercussions will hit Nigerians. Not Obinwanne. Narrative is everything. Americans are not on Twitter, a global social media platform, reminding the world that they are a genocidal country, having killed hundreds of thousands of civilians in Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, Libya, etc. No. They are telling the world, "America is the greatest country on earth", and no one talks too much. Narrative. Australia, US, Mexico, the UK top the world with the highest number of credit card fraudsters. Yet, you don't hear these facts spread by the citizens of these countries. Mexico is a drug-infested country with cartels running even streets. The only place you see this representation is on Hollywood movies. Mexicans are not online deriding their country and justifying it with "woke" Tweets. My conclusion is that Nigeria's tribal nature has enabled the crass foolishness amongst Nigerians- even those who are believed to be "intellectuals". The added layer of security the Nigerian passport, name, face, etc will be subjected to, the refusal of credit facilities by Brentwood institutions, the tightening of visa laws, the refusal to do business with Nigerians, etc- when this hits Nigeria because of the narrative Nigerians are helping to spread, you all will feel it. You will. 1 Like |

Nigerians loved and praised him in the time he was doing good, just the way we do for dngote ,adenuga ,elumelu but crime is crime, especially the one that is contagious to the future of Nigerians Nigerians should be led by logic and not emotions. We are largely an emotional people. Hence the likes of Buhari will win a first, second and third term if he wants. America is currently enabling the world's worst humanitarian disaster and a genocide in Yemen. You don't see CNN or Fox News or Americans calling that out. You think they don't know that genocide is the worst kind of crime? You think they don't know that it is a crime? You think there are not more Americans on Twitter and Facebook than Nigerians? Believe me, they do. They have many Professors in Genocide and Human Rights Law. But they understand the place of narratives in today's world. They are logical with information and not emotional with it. These guys are strategic in thought. Hence when I see Nigerians here and on social media calling out Nigerians from the East, West or North, on their alleged crimes (driven by "my tribe is better than yours" emotionalised nonsense), I shake my head. Tomorrow, a country will announce a Scholarship Scheme for Sub-Saharan Africa and omit Nigeria's name as recepient and we dont see the connection. You think there’s no connection? I laugh. Australia currently offers scholarships to certain Sub-Saharan nations, excluding Nigeria. Brazil (5th largest economy in the world) and Mexico have set up research partnerships with Ghana and not Nigeria. There are many examples. Why should Brazil, with cultural ties to Nigeria via the Yorubas have partnerships with Ghana and not with Nigeria? They have researchers that use AI to study the social media trends around the world. They see Nigerians bad-mouthing their own, analyse the actual issue and then make strategic judgements. In the short-term, emotionalism is exciting but medium term and long term, it is foolishness. 3 Likes 1 Share |
