I've met Mr. Motsepe---- and he really made his money in mining during the South African apartheid movement--- I believe he was jailed with Mandela and some folks----- He also had White mining competitors but he was still able to make his billions and hire people---- anyways, @ Pucumpo--- will answer your question in a few.

He was fortunate to have started his business when there was NOT too many BLACK business men in S.A. so he got a few exclusive contracts,

@ Posakosa. Are you a Nigeriana all? I doubt it. You claim you know Mr. Motsepe yet your own countrymen you call CROOKS. You should give credit to a man like Dangote for getting to Fobes' list as the Richest Black man in the world. He has put a lot of structures in Nigeria, invested hugely in our economy. Moreso he is the largest employer of labour in Nigeria. His wealth was gotten from hard work. Yet he saw it fit to invest it here in Nigeria, not like the looters of our treasury who steal the masses money and stash it away in foreign countries for unborn generations.

Quote from Posakosa[s][/s]

He is giving Nigerians back their money, money that rightfully belongs to them----- when you study economics, come back and post because I don't understand what is great about a MONOPOLIST----

What do you mean by that. Could you please expanciate? What money?

[quote by Posakosa]Otedola and Dangote should be taken off that list----- they are CROOKS! [quote][/quote]

How can you name Dangote among the crooks of this nation. In the last decade, Dangote has done nothing other than help boost the nation's economy through diverse investments. He has used his wealth to add value to the lives of many through job creation, corporate social responsibilities in communites that had been written off. His wealth was gotten from hard work and great perseverance.

Posakosa i repeat it again, you are a SADIT and will soon go NUTS. You are very RUDE! How can you come to a public domain and abuse virtually everybody? You are meant to air you opinion and leave it at that. People like you should not be allowed in public places cos you will always make a FOOL of YOURSELF.

I have nothing to say to you henceforth!

You know what? YOU ARE A SADIST! People like you never move forward cos you keep nagging and tearing at other people until you go WACKY

What is it with you Posakosa, why are you throwing tantrums over this issue? You are not helping the nation by just being a spectator; you can also look for an opportunity to maximize/monopolize like Dangote. Mind you, it takes great insight to do just that.

You guys should not insult the man for his good initiatives and noble deeds. He is Nigeria's greatest industrialist as far as am concerned and some of us have one way or the other benefited from his products/investments.

The Ikorodu location of the ultra modern factory is good initiative. This will finally create jobs for the thousand unemployed youth in the region. I have no doubt that the Noodles will spread fast across the country.
