Joint Venture

Thank you so much. Thank you.

On behalf of

the family of Mr and Mrs Oluwole Adejobi,

once again, I welcome you.

- Thank you. - Oluwole the chief.

Olabode the prince.

Yeah.

You see, by God's grace...

I am saying it again, by God's grace,

we will use our hands to accept our blessings.

Amen.

By the time we all retire,

- we will not retire to death. - Amen!

We will not retire to sickness.

Amen.

It's not yet time, let's just continue. Let's continue.

Food and everything is surplus.

Right now, I want to call the celebrant himself to come and address us.

Yeah!

Thank you everybody. Thank you.

Oluwole the chief.

Olabode... Olabode the prince.

- Take care madam. Congratulations. - Yeah.

Just look at my father.

Look at how daddy is bouncing like an 18 year old.

His wife also followed him to protect her property.

What do you expect?

That's why I always tell you

Seye took after your dad with his stride and style.

I am sure when he was young, he was a bad nigga.

Are you okay? My father is a bad nigga?

Are you serious at all?

What happened? How about Seye? I've not seen him.

Seye can't come, he is still in America.

You know I told you he went there for a course.

- Yeah! No wonder. Oh, no wonder. - It's keeping him busy.

If Seye was around, he would bring in a hip-hop artist.

- You know my younger brother very well. - I trust Seye.

I must dearly confess to you, I'm overwhelmed.

I am very happy.

They say, the eyes that saw evil and didn't go blind was waiting for goodness.

- Yes. Yes. - Isn't it?

We are grateful.

- In good health and wealth will one grow. - Yes.

We've grown in it

and have left a good legacy.

Thanks be to God. May yours not be ruined.

Amen!

What I just want to tell us is that

you see, responsible behavior is very important.

Good character is very important

because whatever character you exhibit in your prime is

what will determine what you will reap in your old age.

Oh, yes.

We're seeing it now and we're grateful it is the way it is.

For this reason, please exhibit good behavior.

Whatever job you do, do it honestly.

Whatever you do, do it with consideration.

Thank you very much.

- Continue clapping. - Thank you.

Thank you!

We let the celebrant do it.

Now at this juncture, we want to make a toast.

Yes, we want to give a toast.

The person who will coordinate that, Banky Osha! Banky Ohsa!

Hello.

Please give Mr Bankole a round of applause.

Yeah.

One who teaches, is a what?

- Is a teacher! - Is a teacher.

And what about one who cooks?

- He's a toaster. - He's not a cooker.

- And one who toasts is a... - Is a toaster!

- Is a toaster. - So I am a toaster.

We will sing one song before we toast.

We all have a cup with us, right?

- Yes. - And drinks to pour in it right?

Yes.

Bodmas,

- stay by my side. - Alright.

This is friendship though.

- Mischief makers. - Mischief makers.

- Stay by my side. - Okay.

Both of them can implicate someone.

You will get up and help me sing one song,

after singing, you will pour a drink into the cup.

When I say you should toast, you will do that. Don't let it break.

Avoid breakages.

Please let's stand.

For he is a jolly good fellow

For he is a jolly good fellow

For he is a jolly good fellow!

And so say all of us

-And so say all of us -Hurray!

For he is a jolly good fellow For he is a jolly good fellow!

Hurray!

And so say all of us, hurray!

Thank you!

Let's clap!

Bodmas!

Oluwole, pay them no mind

Oluwole, let them talk

Let them gossip

Let them talk

Let them gossip, Pay them no mind, let them gossip

-Oluwole -Banky, the big man!

Banky the big man!

- Oluwole the chief -We can be retirees,

- but we cannot be tired. - Congratulations

Oluwole, congratulations on today!

Congratulations to all of us.

Including Banky and Bode,

and Oluwole. Congratulations to all of us.

From now on let everything keep going smoothly.

It would go smoothly but we can't wait and watch.

A singer says it best, in life people are now more calculative than emotional.

- They are more calculative? - They are.

It's true we're retired, but we can't get tired.

We can't get tired.

You see, because I was thinking it's best to look for a business to do.

- That's right. That's right. - Isn't that right?

We're still very agile. There's still agility in us.

Money must be added to.

If you don't add to money it will get finish.

- It would finish. - It would finish.

- May God not let it finish. - We'll cry if it finishes.

- May God not let us cry. - That's right.

- Amen. - Yes. That's the reality.

Once a monkey lands it runs off.

- We'll think of what we can do. - Yeah.

You know me for that. When it comes to business I think like, what is going on?

Bode the prince.

Oluwole the chief.

- Olabode the prince. - How are you?

Yes?

- Well done. - What happened?

- Congratulations on today's event. - Thank you.

- I thought you had gone. - No. Ah!

I wanted the party to end so I could discuss with you quickly.

While we were talking the other time and you spoke about doing business.

You know me now, I started thinking about different things.

Immediately I knew where we were going.

Instantly!

They want to bring in some goods into the country, it's importation.

It's importation I'm talking about right now.

That's the business I think we can do quickly.

It's tiles.

Once it gets here, that set of tiles are not in this country.

We will be the first to take the delivery.

So, we are gonna make a lot of money.

Bode,

let's leave the talk for now, let's not rush.

I am not in a rush.

Yes, we shouldn't. We're all tired now.

Go and sleep then I will sleep as well.

When it involves work, I don't get tired.

I don't hear anything that involves work and get tired.

And it's not about us rushing, we're not rushing.

What I am thinking of is that if we get hold of it now,

others will not be able to take it.

Because the condition we will give to them is that we're to be

the major distributor and they shouldn't give it to someone else.

Bode I understand you.

I am tired, you should be tired as well.

Go and sleep then I'll sleep too.

Later we will discuss it. Okay?

Okay, no problem.

- I can understand. - Yeah.

- I know you must be really tired. - Okay.

I can call you, I can call you before we sleep.

Don't bother calling me, I would have slept off and I will put off my phone.

Okay, I have heard you.

Alright.

- My regards to your wife. - I will tell her.

Ah, I'm tired.

I'm so tired. So tired.

As it is now sir, it's obvious that

we can't make less than 500 million naira

if we invest 300 million naira in the business.

Five hundred million naira?

Yes sir, and the money will be made within two months.

- Really? - Yes.

What you're trying to tell me is that if we invest

- 300 million naira... - Yes.

...within two months we will make 500 million naira?

Yeah. I'm even just saying two months for the sake of it.

It's possible that it might not be up to two months at all.

- Are you sure? - Hundred percent sure, sir.

It's not my first time at all.

- You've been doing it a while? - Very well.

And you've gotten the results?

Countless times.

That sounds interesting.

- Okay then. - So...

- What's stopping us? - What's stopping us is nothing other than,

you know, it's a joint business so you will drop 150 million naira

and I will also drop 150 million naira.

Once it's complete then we can kick off.

My money is available already.

- Really? - Yes.
