• THE IGBO ENTREPRENEURSHIP SYSTEM - The Strategy That Built Obi Cubana

    Have you ever wondered …
    How did the Igbo people rise from losing everything after the war, to becoming one of the most entrepreneurial tribes in Africa?

    Let me tell you a story.

    So After the Nigerian civil war, the Igbos were left with nothing. According to history, people who had thousands in their accounts were only given £20. Businesses destroyed. Hope shattered.

    That’s how the new system treated them; broke, broken, and abandoned.

    They didn’t sit down and complain.
    They started again.
    From scratch. From the ground up.

    That's the spirit of the Igbo Chi.

    But they didn’t do it alone.
    They used a system, one powerful principle:

    “Never Leave Your Brother.”

    If you’re selling biscuits and need to buy Lipton, you go to your brother’s shop.

    Even if his price is a bit higher ; you still buy from him. That’s how Igbos built their own economy from inside.

    They called it “Onye Aghala Nwanne Ya ” - "Don’t leave your brother behind."

    This was more than business. It was survival. It was loyalty. It was strategy.

    They built communities.
    They trained one another through apprenticeship (Igba Boi).
    They lifted each other from trenches to triumph.
    They created chains of value - and chains of trust.

    And no one represents this model today better than Obi Cubana

    He started small - one nightclub in Abuja.
    But he didn’t rise alone.
    He surrounded himself with people he empowered , and they, in turn, empowered him.

    Today, many of his “boys” are millionaires, and they’re all still connected. That’s what made his mum’s burial a historic moment
    it wasn’t about showing off, it was about community wealth.

    Now His 50th birthday was a blast.

    From Business Men to superstars to sports players they all gathered to pay homage .

    You might wondering what a popular pastor was doing at the event ?

    He is Igbo right ?

    He came to pay homage to his brother who built from scratch.

    That’s the Igbo system.
    Build. Empower. Don’t leave your brother.

    That's why Anywhere you see an Igbo person there must be a community.

    That's how the Igbos grow

    That's how they were able to bounce back and become the most proporous ethnic group in Africa

    As Obi Cubana celebrates his 50th birthday, I see more than a successful man.

    I see a case study of Igbo resilience, strategy, and communal growth.

    If you're building something today, I want you to ask yourself:

    Are you lifting others as you rise?

    Are you creating value or just chasing money?

    Are you building a system, or are you walking alone?

    Because wealth built alone is fragile. But wealth built in brotherhood is eternal.

    Obi Cubana didn’t just make money.
    He made men. He made systems. He made history.

    And that, my friend, is the secret of Igbo entrepreneurship.

    Start now to build men.

  • Let’s play a game!
    You just woke up… and somehow, you now have ALL the money in the world. No limits. No bills. Just pure freedom.

    First 3 things you’re doing with your unlimited wealth?
    Drop them in the comments—be honest, be wild, be YOU!

    I’ll start:

    1. Buy a private island with Wi-Fi and my closest friends.


    2. Fund clean water projects across the globe.


    3. Host a “no rules” pizza party in space.



    Your turn! Let’s see how creative (or generous) you are. Go!

  • INTERNET AND THE EMERGING ZOMBIE GENERATION IN NIGERIA.

    JAMB PERFORMANCE BY NIGERIAN STUDENTS SINCE 2007..

    In 2007 -. 66% of NGR students scored 200 and above..

    in 2008 - 63% scored 200 and above

    2010 - 41% scored 200 and above..

    2015 - 30% scored 200 and above...

    2019 -. 24% scored 200 and above...

    2023 - 23% scored 200 and above...

    2025 - 22% scored 200 and above...

    by 2035 if nothing is done to arrest this worrying decline, This yahoo and jenzzy generation will call for the ending of JAMB...

    By 2050, university entry criteria will just be anyone who can spell his father's name...

    most of this kids who fail JAMB and still get higher institution admission behave like kids who didn't attend primary school..

    Education standard in NGR is in a state of coma ...
    if nothing is done urgent.... it would be permanently buried....
    Let’s stop lying.

    *FUTURES CRUSHED. A NATION EXPOSED.*

    - JAMB 2025 RESULT IS A DISASTER*

    The 2025 JAMB results are here. A disaster. OVER 1.5 MILLION STUDENTS SCORED BELOW 200.

    *WE ALL FAILED.*

    PARENTS: YOU RAISED FRAUDS, NOT CHILDREN

    You paid for “SPECIAL CENTRES” to cheat WAEC.
    You cared more about BRAGGING RIGHTS THAN BEDTIME STORIES.
    You taught your child to CUT CORNERS, NOT SOLVE PROBLEMS.
    Now JAMB strips off the mask, and they drown.
    What did you expect?
    You wanted SHORTCUTS, NOT KNOWLEDGE.
    Your child can’t think, but they know how to cheat. IS THIS PRIDE?

    *DEAR SCHOOLS AND TEACHERS, YOU SOLD SOULS FOR PROFIT*

    School owners, you hired teachers who couldn’t spell “education.”
    Classrooms became TRADING FLOORS.

    Teachers, you leaked exams, whispered answers, and called it “help.”

    You had one job: TO BUILD MINDS. Instead, YOU BUILT LIARS.

    Your students can’t write a sentence, but they know how to bypass integrity.
    SHAME ON YOU.


    *DEAR STUDENTS: YOU CHOSE EASY OVER EXCELLENCE*

    TikTok over textbooks. Parties over past questions.

    You mocked the “bookworms,” then prayed for miracles.

    You thought JAMB would “sort itself.” Now reality hits: LIFE DOESN’T FORWARD ANSWERS IN A WHATSAPP GROUP.

    You can afford to buy data, and get iPhones, but CAN'T BUY TEXTBOOKS OR SERIOUSNESS.

    You gambled with your future. WAKE UP.


    *TO OUR GOVERNMENT, YOU WATCHED THE FIRE BURN*

    You UNDERFUNDED SCHOOLS UNTIL ROOFS CAVED IN.

    You let UNQUALIFIED TEACHERS flood classrooms.

    You ignored “MIRACLE CENTRES” because palms were greased.

    Where are the POLICIES? THE OVERSIGHT? THE URGENCY?

    You talk about “tomorrow’s leaders” while STRANGLING THE SCHOOLS meant to shape them.


    *THIS IS OUR COLLECTIVE SHAME.*

    *PICTURE THIS:*
    Ten years from now, your child is the ENGINEER WHO BUILDS COLLAPSING BRIDGES,
    The DOCTOR WHO KILLS PATIENTS,
    The LEADER WHO STEALS BILLIONS.

    IS THIS THE FUTURE YOU WANT?

    We built this with:

    1. Parents who VALUED TROPHIES OVER TRUTH,
    2. Schools that SOLD CERTIFICATES, NOT CHARACTER,
    3. Students who TRADED GRIT FOR GOSSIP,
    4. And a government that LOOKED AWAY AND FAILED TO ACT.

    It is nearly impossible for anyone who scored B’s & A’s in their WAEC WITHOUT MALPRACTICE to score below 200 in JAMB.

    *SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG!*

  • Getting Money Is One Thing… But Knowing How to Manage It? That’s the Real Power.

    Getting Money is Easy… Keeping It? That’s Where the Game Is.

    You don’t need millions to grow wealthy — you need discipline, direction, and a plan.

    Here are 10 no-nonsense money management tips to help you stop going broke even when you're earning:

    ---

    1. Pay Yourself First
    Before you touch that paycheck, save at least 10%. Your future self will thank you.

    2. Track Every Shilling
    Know where your money is going. Budget apps or a simple notebook can expose your silent money leaks.

    3. Cut Emotional Spending
    Buying things just to “feel good” will leave your account feeling empty. Control the impulse.

    4. Live Below Your Means
    Just because you can afford it doesn’t mean you should. Peace of mind > flexing.

    5. Build an Emergency Fund
    Start with KSh 10,000. Life happens — don’t let one crisis wipe you out.

    6. Set Money Goals
    Saving for nothing leads to spending on everything. Save with purpose: land, car, business, etc.

    7. Invest Wisely
    Don’t let your money sleep in the bank forever. Learn to invest — even if it’s small. It grows.

    8. Avoid Bad Debt
    Borrowing for lifestyle, not investment, is a trap. Know the difference.

    9. Set Clear Financial Goals
    Saving without a goal is boring. Whether it’s a business, plot, or trip — give your money a mission.

    10. Learn About Money
    Read books, watch YouTube, follow finance creators. Money grows when knowledge does.

    11. Invest Consistently
    Don’t wait for millions. Start small — money working for you beats money just sitting.

  • I went to Jeremy's school yesterday. I went and parked in front of the school.

    It was the same spot I parked on Tuesday when I came to look for him.

    When the school had closed, I stepped down from the car, I was anxiously watching to see Jeremy walk out of the gate. I waited for a while and suddenly, I saw him amongst a group of friends strolling out.

    One of his friends tapped him on his back and pointed to me. Jeremy screamed in excitement.

    "Daddy..."

    And ran to me. He embraced me warmly. His friends came to say hello to me. I greeted each of them, brought out some change, and gave to them to buy something for themselves on their way home.

    They were so happy.

    Jeremy looked at me.

    "You came to pick me up?"

    "Yes. I did."

    He grinned in excitement and waved at his friends.

    "Bye, everyone. See you tomorrow."

    And he entered the car.

    While we were driving I noticed a finger mark on Jeremy's cheek. It was like a cut. It had the shape of a fingernail.

    "Who gave you this cut on your face, Jeremy?"

    He touched it with his hands.

    "My mum. She slapped me this morning."

    "Why?"

    He looked at me and turned his gaze back to the road.

    "My mum insists that I should take the public bus to school from now on. She doesn't want me to follow you anymore."

    "Why?"

    "I do not know."

    "Before now, did she know I dropped you off at school?"

    "Sometimes. I told her."

    "And she is not happy I do that?"

    He nodded his head and turned to look at the road.

    "I came by at your house today and heard her shouting at you. I am sorry I could not intervene. I was scared it would make things worse for you."

    He was speechless.

    While driving past Kilimanjaro, an eatery at the old airport, he kept staring at the place. I saw his face and knew he'd want to go in. So I took a turn into the building.

    I told him to come down so we could buy some snacks together.

    He smiled.

    We walked in, picked some snacks and ice cream and both walked out.

    While we were driving home, Jeremy said to me.

    "Thank you, Dad. My friends have told me about about how they visited this place. Today I visited it too and will tell them the story. Tomorrow they'll also be telling me how rich my dad is because of the money you gave them today."

    I laughed.

    I dropped off Jeremy at home and drove back to work.

    This morning I waited until 7:15 and when I didn't see Jeremy come to my house as he usually does, I drove off to work. I knew he had taken the bus just like his mother instructed.

    I am at work now, and considering the second option.

    I want to meet Jeremy's mum tonight. I am not evil. I am just a young man who loves her son as much as she does.

    That's all.

  • This evening I planned to meet with Jeremy's mother the moment I returned from work.

    His mum goes out very early in the morning and comes back late at night. Since it was about to rain heavily, I felt the mum would have returned home earlier today.

    So when I got back home this evening, I changed and headed straight for an eatery to buy some snacks for Jeremy. I bought an extra plate for the mother as well. I took these snacks and went to the house to knock.

    Jeremy was the one who opened the door when I knocked. He paused like he had seen a ghost. Then he glanced back and returned his gaze to me and whispered.

    "Dad."

    I whispered back.

    "Jeremy."

    Is your mummy in?"

    "Yes. She just came back."

    "Tell her I want to see her."

    He froze for a moment. I could see fear in his eyes.

    "Will you be in trouble?" I asked.

    He nodded his head.

    I understood his fear. I knew he was scared of his mother's reaction. Especially as she had already warned him about me.

    Just as I was about to turn back, his mother showed up at the door and opened the curtain. She must have heard my voice when I was talking with Jeremy.

    She pushed Jeremy behind her and the boy just went inside.

    "Good evening."

    "What do you want?"

    "I came to talk with you and I also brought some snacks and food for you and for Jeremy too. I stopped by the eatery."

    Jeremy was peeping through the window and I could see his face.

    "Did Jeremy tell you we were hungry?"

    "No...no. Not at all. I just wanted to see you and discuss with you. So I felt I shouldn't come empty-handed. I thought of what to get and believe me this was the best thing I could come up with."

    "We are not hungry, sir. We just ate dinner not long ago."

    I nodded.

    "Can I come in. So we talk?"

    "About what?"

    "Ummm... I understand you do not know me that well. I am your neighbor. I stay just over there. Jeremy and I have been friends and I met him once when I gave him a lift to school and since then I have been giving him lifts to school."

    "Are you a driver?"

    "No... I am a writer and script writer and I work for an establishment as well."

    "So since you are not a driver why are you interested in giving him a lift?"

    "I just... I mean since we go out together in the morning and I... Madam listen. Jeremy is a nice boy and I have seen him as my son as well as you have. I just wanted you to understand..."

    "Jeremy is not looking for a father. If he were I would have shown him where his father is. Please stay clear from my son. Please."

    She entered the house and shut the door angrily. For a moment I felt embarassed and useless.

    Jeremy waved at me and I waved back. I do not know if he was saying sorry or saying goodnight to me. But before I could wave back, his mother forcefully dragged him away from the window.

    I felt bad.

    I turned and left.

    On my way home, I got beaten by the rain. My clothes were drentched. It was as if the heavens were in agreement with her.

    I do not know if to stay off or try one more time.

    I do not know at all

    This evening I planned to meet with Jeremy's mother the moment I returned from work. His mum goes out very early in the morning and comes back late at night. Since it was about to rain heavily, I felt the mum would have returned home earlier today. So when I got back home this evening, I changed and headed straight for an eatery to buy some snacks for Jeremy. I bought an extra plate for the mother as well. I took these snacks and went to the house to knock. Jeremy was the one who opened the door when I knocked. He paused like he had seen a ghost. Then he glanced back and returned his gaze to me and whispered. "Dad." I whispered back. "Jeremy." Is your mummy in?" "Yes. She just came back." "Tell her I want to see her." He froze for a moment. I could see fear in his eyes. "Will you be in trouble?" I asked. He nodded his head. I understood his fear. I knew he was scared of his mother's reaction. Especially as she had already warned him about me. Just as I was about to turn back, his mother showed up at the door and opened the curtain. She must have heard my voice when I was talking with Jeremy. She pushed Jeremy behind her and the boy just went inside. "Good evening." "What do you want?" "I came to talk with you and I also brought some snacks and food for you and for Jeremy too. I stopped by the eatery." Jeremy was peeping through the window and I could see his face. "Did Jeremy tell you we were hungry?" "No...no. Not at all. I just wanted to see you and discuss with you. So I felt I shouldn't come empty-handed. I thought of what to get and believe me this was the best thing I could come up with." "We are not hungry, sir. We just ate dinner not long ago." I nodded. "Can I come in. So we talk?" "About what?" "Ummm... I understand you do not know me that well. I am your neighbor. I stay just over there. Jeremy and I have been friends and I met him once when I gave him a lift to school and since then I have been giving him lifts to school." "Are you a driver?" "No... I am a writer and script writer and I work for an establishment as well." "So since you are not a driver why are you interested in giving him a lift?" "I just... I mean since we go out together in the morning and I... Madam listen. Jeremy is a nice boy and I have seen him as my son as well as you have. I just wanted you to understand..." "Jeremy is not looking for a father. If he were I would have shown him where his father is. Please stay clear from my son. Please." She entered the house and shut the door angrily. For a moment I felt embarassed and useless. Jeremy waved at me and I waved back. I do not know if he was saying sorry or saying goodnight to me. But before I could wave back, his mother forcefully dragged him away from the window. I felt bad. I turned and left. On my way home, I got beaten by the rain. My clothes were drentched.
