Just few hours ago, the global social media space was agog with a viral video emanating from some sources that the sons of Nigerian billionaire industrialist, Aare Razak Akanni Okoya CON, Subomi and Wahab allegedly abused the Nigerian naira during a video shoot of their sons. Comments flew in from different quarters after the story was finally unleashed on the social media.
However, we gathered that majority of the comments coming from ardent followers of sold based social media handles never saw anything wrong in the kids displaying such because it has always been the norms in the Nigerian entertainment industry with the likes of KC, Wizkid, Davido, Olamide, Phyno, Ashake and many more having displayed not only naira notes, but dollars, pounds, etc without any reactions from the authorities.
However, while some sections of the Nigerian entertainment followers believed vividly that the sons of this illustrious and industrious Nigerian, Aare Okoya does not have the right to display the mammoth wealth of their hardworking parent, other segment affirmed that there is nothing practically wrong about both Subomi and Wahab’s actioand
The latter’s conclusion was that the perpetrators of that story are just being scandalous and blackmailing judging by the huge names and pedigree of their parents not only in the Nigerian community but in the entire African space. To them, those who could not match up with the standards of the parents will do everything in their capacity to drag their cherished names to the mud and they felt this is the right situation to cash on.
A family that has built the Nigerian manufacturing sector for more than 60 years, the Okoya industrial dynasty has, no doubt, sporadically improved the Nigerian and African business value-chains, creating job opportunities for the continent’s youths and enhancing the standard of living for families across board.
