According to Wikipedia This is the garage of the Second Nigerian Senate President Prince Nweke Nwafor from 1960 to 1966.
I vividly Recall the story of a man who became
popular for engaging in money rituals just to buy the
80's edition of the Honda Prelude. You wouldn't buy
that car for 50k today. Some other guy brutally
murdered his brother ( whom their father gave cash
warehouse), just cos he wanted to acquire the rave
of the moment - Pathfinder Jeep. That same vehicle
is now better described as a coffin. I Remember as
a kid, my whole street gathered to watch a truck
deliver a very large satellite dish to my neighbour's
house. Today a dish one tenth that size delivers 5
times the value and is in almost every student's
room. What about the Volkswagen Santana,
Mercedes Benz V boot, 505Evolution, Toyota
Crown, all overtaken by latest models of Camry,
Honda, Bugatti, Bentley, X6, Acura and Infinity....
Vanity! Some ladies left their true loves cos some
rich guy then persuaded them with a Benz 190,
which turned out to be the only car they ever owned
till date. They found out too late that true love is
invaluable. A friend declared drinks because he
launched the Nokia Communicator for over hundred
grand in 2002. Today that phone would embarrass
the owner and is a joke compared to the low cost
and everyday phones. What about the MTN SIM
card that many people went extra miles before they
bought for over 30k, today you will not buy it at
N100 because all networks are begging people to
even take it for free. People are still making the
most horrific sacrifices over 'vanity' and make
enemies over worthless material things. What can I
say? Look back at that one thing you want to kill or
die for today and see what becomes of it tomorrow.
There is absolutely nothing you can't achieve. All
you need is a little time and PATIENCE and you
would thank God without regrets. There is actually
nothing in this world that is worth dieing for,
ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! Meditate on this…
