Eventually, Nigerian government officials looted his showroom, his imported goods, then his warehouses, one by one. They asked for his company certificate to carry out investigations, he gave it, then they used it to take out millions of dollars in loans. At this point my family was ded and buried but my dad was still a pain in the arse for the state trying to sue them, so naturally they tried assasinating him, car "incidents", poison, arson to our home, blah blah blah, point being, y’all don’t realize how much of a joke Nigeria is.
