MMM founder attacks Buhari, says ‘you can’t pay salaries but we have empowered 3m Nigerians’



Sergey Mavrodi, founder of MMM has called on the Nigerian government to look at the benefits of the scheme on Nigerians rather than the fear expressed by the federal government that it is a ponzi scheme.

 Mavrodi disclosed this in an open letter to the Federal Government of Nigeria on their MMM participants page, NAN reported.

He said the scheme has done a lot to improve the welfare of Nigerians and reduce poverty despite the fear expressed by the federal government that it is a ponzi scheme.

He furthermore urged the government to look at the benefits of the scheme to over three million Nigerians in one year of its existence in the country, especially, where the scheme is the only source of livelihood for some Nigerians.

                          

The open letter read,” So far MMM has come under a constant attack from you. In this regard, I would like to ask you a few simple questions. Since you are concerned with the interests of millions of your fellow citizens, I hope that you would be so kind to answer them.”

 

“What are you trying to get? Do you want the MMM System to collapse and millions of people to suffer? Who will support them then if MMM is their only means of livelihood? Will you? You even don’t pay wages to people? Or might you not care about them? Might you be using a trendy topic to make a good name for yourselves? What will you say to a mother who will have no money to buy food for her child? Will you let her child die for the sake of the higher interests of the economy?

 

“You say that MMM is a scam. What is the scam here, if all members are warned in advance about all the risks, the possible and impossible ones? They know there are no investments at all. The warning is a red text on a yellow background placed on most prominent place of the website.

 

“You say that MMM is bad. Why? Yes, it produces nothing, but nothing gets out of the country either. The money is just redistributed among the citizens of Nigeria. It gets from those who are richer to poorer ones, in this way restoring social justice. What`s wrong with that?

 

“You have repeatedly stated that “it should be investigated!.. researched!..” It means you know nothing about this System yet; you even haven’t understood how it works…

 

“And finally, If you know what is right for people, why is the life so bad in the country?”

 

Recall the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) had warned against participation in the scheme while the House of Representatives ordered a probe into its activities in the country.

President Tinubu Affirms Oyebanji’s Second-Term Ticket in Birthday Message, Silences Speculations

December 21, 2025  President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has put to rest lingering beerpalour speculations around the Ekiti State governorship ticket as he openly affirmed that Governor Biodun Abayomi Oyebanji has secured the All Progressives Congress (APC) nomination for a second term. The affirmation came on Saturday in a birthday message issued by the President’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, as Governor Oyebanji marked his 58th birthday.
