It seems these foreign MLM developers have suddenly discovered that we Nigerians are mugus. They have made us the destination of all forms of wittily crafted MLMs these days. These MLM’s offer zero value to Nigerians in general. A few people make money, but most people just occupy spaces in their boards, without products of any value.
The clubfreedom argument was tough initially, convincing people about the products and all, but when the others came in, the resistance had been eroded, and they could all just come in and product or not, take advantage of ignorant and wealth seeking Nigerians. Just yesterday there were marketers from different nations and Nigeria, trying to get me involved in 6startravel. I declined, and here is why.
All the programs I joined without believing in, have gotten many people joining under my network. Why? Because somehow because of my critical stance, I have become perceived as someone who will not join anything that was unnecessarily risky. I expected many more will come sooner, but what really takes me aback is the fact that these programs are all owned by Australians that are increasingly seeing that Nigeria is a good market. Some of these programs don’t even have patronage in their own countries, but trust Nigerians – No due diligence required, it’s risky, but if they pay? (Tete mentality)
Why am I not joining? I am not joining because I currently know of an initiative that is coming up soon that will have an effect on me similar to what Clubfreedom did. I started Canadian Diamond Traders shortly before I heard of clubfreedom and I haven’t cycled from it till date. I joined CDT when CF was the next big thing.
Everybody is looking for the next big thing, and in my opinion, 6startravel is not the next big thing. I have seen and heard of the next big thing, and I am waiting for it. It pays more in every way and is more in touch with Nigerians than any of the other programs. On the day it becomes public, readers here will be first to know.
Of course I expect the customary different opinions and perspectives, but I advice that if you can’t afford to pay $200 twice or throw one away… then wait for the next 1 week. But if you can, sure you can have fun… but this time around don’t let anyone tell you I’m on the boards and coded… I’m not even allowing people to pay for me or advertise here. If they paid for me, the slot is their’s.

Ok. We are waiting for the next big one! I was surprised at the rate the 6startravel stuff began to spread in the last 24 hours. The organizers of DCC last two weeks sent out an alert warning their members of the coming up of 6startravelclub but trust nigerians…
If you get your fingers burnt….. you are OYO!!
lol
True talk my pple! I have the opportunity of ‘ínside’ knowledge about this next big thing, believe me, its worth waiting for.
what is happening in clubfreedom? we are already deep into it and stuck in the main board for over 3 months. Which one is this next big thing again?
There seems to be no movement in clubfreedom for now and also, what is happening to ecash invest?
Av been under intense pressure in the past few days to come and join this new program, calls from in and outside the country followed by e-mails from known and unknown sources but I have refused to join because I have an inside info of this “next big thing” and am willing to wait.
Let’s meet at the TOP!!!

Thank u oh bayo,wat happened to the much talked about e-cash???wat happened to the promises of november?awon fraud dede.lol
have a nice weeeknd y’all jare
Is this next big thing anything to do with clubfreedom? or are we expected to cough out another $200 for that next big thing and then get stuck on the boards again that is after helping you leaders to cycle out again and again and leaving us stuck on dead boards?if so the next big thing could as well be as big as 6startravelclub,inotherwords as big as CF,DCC,GC and so on …show us the way out of CF and E-CASH INVEST first…
@ Ukamaka,
Thanks for your comments. I think it is the responsibility of “leaders” to think about the plight of their “followers” and find ways to make life better. I’m trying my little best, while not hoping to win the applause of all at it.
The way out of ecash is simple – wait for 30days.. which should be the case now if you have invested, and withdraw your money.
The way out of CF is to use your whole sale access travel voucher that you paid for. I have used mine and helped a number of people to use theirs too.
I also still help people buyout their ecash regularly… 3 people cycled yesterday that I know of, as proof that the boards are slow but still moving. I think we are all suffering now from our lack of focus.
@ Bayo and Olajuwon,
You can check the post after this for my opinion.. I had written it but was waiting for the 30days announcemment to go public first.
I feel your pain about your position, like I have always maintained, anyone who owes me personally liable can contact me directly and I will help in any way I deem fit while acting with the highest integrity.
Thanks again all… I am still open to negative constructive feedback
Hey guys,
I received a mail yesterday from an unkown intimating me of 6startravel. My initial action was to just close the mail, wuz about to close work then. Today I went back to it and I made up my mind there and then….I am not joining this one. Not just bcos it isn’t as good as getawayclub but also bcos lack of focus isn’t going to do any of us any good.
Stay focused guys….and refuse the temptation to advertise 6startravel.
On the next big thing? Check out my blog – to be launched soon.
Hello all,
This big thing, I must warn, will not be for lazy people.
I hate it when people just think they will pay $200 for registration and sit back and wait for the time the jackpot will come.
Please everyone should be informed that life is not that easy.
Regards
Kindly spill the bean on this ‘next big thing’, I can’t wait bo!
Hmmmmmmmm
Hi everyone,
Its nice reading from my oga, Deolu Akinyemi. Had done several business with him several times and never been disappointed for once.
Our relationship started with Clubfreedom the company I am trying to make thier change attitude towards their customers especially Nigerians (Please see our latest discussions at imoisilis.com).
Deolu as I read your post on the next big time, I have been thinking seriously of how much GOD can bless someone.
Though we have never met in person except by phone calls, you are someone after my heart.
I jumped for joy when I saw you on Channels Tv last week in Lagos, It was like seeing myself.
Your name is your strongest brand and I have strongly tried to emulate that in my daily business transaction by delivering as at when due and even sooner. You are a worthy ambassador my brother.
For anyone to be great in life he must give honor to whom honor is due.
My oga, I honor you so I can be honored.
Will like to do a special post on my blog on your Billionaires in Training (BIT) programme soon, will contact you soon as am ready.
For those of us stuck in Clubfreedom, I have been thinking deeply of a way out and will welcome any contribution on this project.
I have cycled once but I feel for a lot of my downlines who are not.
For them and my name am ready to go all the way. Interested please leave your comments on my site or mail me at imoisilis@yahoo.com
Its nice contributing to this blog. Thank you.
Samuel Imoisili
Deolu,
This ‘next big thing’ is definately going to throw cash into everyone laps without any body referring anybody, and i guess ‘everyone’ must/will cycle out too! lol
And when this NBT comes other MLM will bow and fold their arms! maybe it will run for 5 yrs without ‘rival’!
You have a penchant for running other progs down whenever u have smthing up your sleeves
When will u ever have a balanced opinion of issues?
Am going to be part of your NBT no doubt, but at the moment 6 star ROCKS!!!
@ Kroy
So sorry, unfortunately it has a tendency to look like that, I think you can also chose to look at it the other way, I complain about something, and then see if it can be done better. I am trained never to just complain but propose solutions. But I guess it all depends on half empty or half full, guess we can both be right.
I love your sacarsm and diplomacy, I can’t find any fault with you mate. Well done.
Some months back, Deolu made a post about this e-cashinvest stuff, telling us how big it was going to be and all that. Though I am not a member of ClubFreedom, I believed him. He even went to the extent of using his mouth to run DCC an GetawayClub down, telling us that we should mark his words and date, that many Nigerians would soon be stuck in the boards and will all run back to CF. I am not a member of any of these two either, but I still regarded his words.
Today, not only is GetawayClub waxing stronger, CF has completely run down.
Just 2 days ago, I joined 6startravelclub (the first MLM I have ever joined), and here he is again, already prophesying it’s doom, and even insulting us that we are mumu’s. Now someone should please tell me why he should be taken seriously this time around?
No wonder I made a post here about 6startravelclub twice, and it didn’t appear anywhere on this blog. Anyway Deolu, I still got much respect for you. But this tendency of yours to always condemn whatever you’re not a part of should stop. For your info, people have been cycling out already. The first man to cycle out, a Nigerian, Steve Tolu, cycled out in just 6hrs after the program started.
Again, his argument about “most of these programs not having patronage in their country” is very superficial. As a businessman, won’t you rather target where you will mostly get patronage? Or would you rather introduce a program to people who are less interested, at your own loss? Have you thought about it as a case of “a prophet not honoured in his town”?
Anyways, ’nuff said! 6startravelclub rocks!
I don’t know what is going on here,Deolu hope the next big thing is not going to be an MLM again? hope it will be toward manufacturing or production of something.
Deolu come to think of it,don’t you know that all that money we have in 6k4you,clubfreedom and ecash we can use that on production of good and services here and every body will be a winner?
I want us to be thinking toward PRODUCTION,MANUFACTURING and not just cycling money and the 1st few people will benefit while majority will be stuck for ever.
My people let us THINK,Nigeria can not be great trough MLM money cycling!!!!
@ Segun,
Thanks for your comments. I always appreciate them.
Let me respond to a bit of the facts.
I’m sorry if MY opinion about MLMs and Investments seems to affect anybody’s marketing. Trust me, I would keep absolutely silent if I could, but many people see silence as consent and use me to market many programs. Many readers here are not aware of the inner workings of many of these programs, some of us constantly get offers of people willing to pay for us to be their upline and downline at the same time, offers from MLM informing us before launching. e.t.c. I spoke up about my stand on there other programs then when I got a call from two people that they heard on an interview on radio that I am the number 1 man on getaway, I pushed it aside after the first comment, but when I saw it was real, I had to let my friends know my position.
When I was sharing my views about investments, I gave positive recommendations about Hazonwao… they are one of the very few still paying regularly today. We later started an investment club to help some people, which is still running today, paying it’s members and closed to the public. Wetin I do oh?
It’s good you mentioned you are not in cf, getaway and dcc… I know someone who has 59,000 downlines in Getaway…and not more than 40 of them have cycled. And for the many who won’t cycle, what can they point at as value for their money? Nothing. See, if I join any program today, I will cycle… my upline will make it, it doesn’t even matter when I join, but we need to think and see how we can add value… make many more people happy.
Many other programs are coming… someone just told me of some more from Australia that are planning their launch dates… where do you think it will stop?
Hello people,
can someone please let me in on this 6starttarvel thingy
i strongly think the problem with people not circling out on this MLMs is that a lot are not ready to take their destinies into their hands. Its like we get into the craze and run at the beginning but the moment we hear of something new we abandon the previous projects and join the new ones. In three weeks i got almost fifteen downlines into getaway club,but will you believe that not one of them brought in someone of there own, i sent out texts, mails made calls.
Tenacity i believe is a vital key to the future we see, MLMs will keep rolling out, because this people never stop dreaming, but are there targets dreaming as well, is the question we need to ask ourselves. So far i have learnt a lot from GC and friend i might not have cicled out, but its circled me into so many ideas, and taught me lessons on the steps to take to see the future i dream of.
Deolu has done his part to enlighten us, we also have a duty to generations coming behind us, from GC u can imagine the level of self centeredness in people, that paradigm needs to change to becoming worldcentered. Lets begin to see beyond our fathers backyards.
@Kroy & Segun,
You may have so many people willing to follow you into so many MLM programs now, but as the numbers that circle out reduce, so will people who believe and trust in you reduce. Your comments can’t really be faulted but u can’t also blame Deolu. At least he is doing something about to help.
@ all,
Believe me when I tell you that 6startravel may be new, it’s no where near this next big thing. Reserve your energies, monies, and downlines for this NBT. It will be truly worth it. The NBT is the way MLM should be. I assure you, once it’s rolled out, it’s bye bye to all other MLM program.
My thots!
Okay Deolu, I reason with you and I’m sorry if I came out rude earlier. By the way, can someone please fill us in on what this NBT is all about?
@Bone, what’s ur email?
I can’t wait for the next big thing.
http://freelancez.blogspot.com/
Hey guys, NBT promises to bring true greatness to every Nigerian, patience is needed, get your priorities straight and lets believe in our own.
Please fill me in with the NBT stuff when ready. We should ensure that due dilligence is done to avoid current problem that ppl are having with the other MLM
Hi Deolu,
I will appreciate if you can expatiate on this statement you made in response to ukamaka
The way out of CF is to use your whole sale access travel voucher that you paid for. I have used mine and helped a number of people to use theirs too
how do i use my whole sale access travel voucher to get out of CF i have been on the same level for more than 3 months with my downlines as like the people have said, the focus is lost and i need to help this people get out and try to redeem my name.
Many thanks
Kenzo
MLM has become synonymous with MANY LINES MORE. The picture that comes to mind are long unending queys.Those at the end of the long line will likely not be served.
It is time for paradygm shift .
Let us look at WSW-WE SHARE WEALTH programs.
hw do u determine the responses u post? Sorry, i need to know.
deolu, are u going 2 tell us about getaway club? if yes good, if no, please check getaway club for us. please.
i’d lovee to reiterate somthing i guess u already know. Deolu people see u as an authority in biz, mlms etc. i’m happy ure living up 2 dat
evryone’s looking for the next big thing and i joined getawayclub though m on platinum board but it was a lot of work but the rate at which MLMs are rollin out makes me think naija’s become a dumping ground for all sort..one needs to be really careful..deolu’s an authority in all this stuff and m also waiting for the next bigger thing…thanks for what u are doing..thumbs up!
@ Deolu,
i have always respected your views, no qualms abt that. however, its been more than a week now since u posted this issue on NBT, when will the beans be spilled? we all cant wait as u can see from the response.
@all,
i will advise you all to 4get being rich thru MLM’s as we all agree they hav a short life span. it will be better to look for Asset-based programs where u can build your wealth than on mlm’s as they are liabilities either on your name, integrity or finances. we all dabble into this tins once in a while but there is always a time to reflect. a child learns from its mistakes when he falls off the bike while learning how to ride it, but one fall too many makes us MUMU’s. how many more mlm’s dat are coming are we going to join?
nuff said!!!!!
Guess the next big thing is now here. Come on board every believer in the emergence of a new nigeria! The New Nigeria Club is the answer. Join now using the link: http://www.newnigeriaclub.net/biosfrank
Cheers!
I strongly believe
godwill save us people in this part of the world,amen.
In a country where there is poverty,starvation and unemployment starring us in the face,what do you expect?the get rich quick syndrome.I KNOW THAT PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE TRYING TO MAKE US BELIEVE YOU ARE THE MESSIAH.BUT I DONT PERSONALLY THINK SO.Why,when the next big thing comes you and your friends will be the ones that will benefit the most as you guys always do,right.MLM LEADERS IN NIGERIA,SELFISH LOT.
As for me i only invest money i am willing to lose if anything happens.Do not discourage people.Billionaires of today all took a gamble and it paid off,why not give it a try again and again and again just like Abraham Lincoln you know his story.See ya
@ Adetule Adekunle
While I respect your right to air your veiws, I will like to point out to you that all businesses in this world has someone at the top of the pyramid. That not withstanding, the determination of the person at the top to better the lives of his employees or downlines is what I believe you should look at.
I joined clubfreedom in June not under Mr Adeolu’s team but from another team. One of the things I was made to understand is that it was a marketing programme where the number of people that purchase the travel voucher from you determines your success. I know someone who cycled six times and actually had his 7 nights vacation. He was not sitting down in his house to cycle. He was busy travelling the lenght and breath of Nigeria to make that happen. He paid flight tickets, paid venue fees and paid for advertisements in the media too. I do not understand how you can call a man who spends his time,energy and money doing what the club actually asked him to do to make the money selfish. How is the person selfish? In life, note this NOTHING GOES FOR NOTHING. No effort = No rewards. It is the CAPITALIST system.
Do not forget that by joining clubfreedom and all the other clubs you paid for a service(travel vouchers) in the case of clubfreedom and getawayclub and goods(diamonds) in the case of DCC. Which you are expected to get some discount from should it be that you are not hardworking enough to make your own reward. I have tried to make a booking with one of my vouchers from clubfreedom when I wanted to travel and I actually got a response from them showing that at least the try to keep there own part of the bargain. I do not know about getaway club’s travel voucher but I know that those deals where not made for people in Africa cos when you get to their deals there is no where you can type in your address. I have not heard of any one that have travelled with the getawayclub deals or rewards and I have not heard of any Nigerian that have colected any diamond from DCC.At least people that did Canadian diamonds actually collected the diamond stone they were promised. Pls correct me if I am wrong.
Now instead of us as Nigerians to sit down and take stock of what is really wrong with the whole game, we sit down and abuse those that have tried in their own way to better the lives of others. The primary aim of NNC is to make as many deals as possible available to members so that members can recover their initial sign up fees through those deals. The boards are simply to create an avenue for some people who are determined to promote the club to make money.As far as I know NNC is the only one that gives you an option of deciding if you want to join the boards. I know the time, blood, sweat and tears it took from Deolu and his team to put up NNC. Every day he sits down and thinks of how he can add more deals to the programme to benefit you and I; cause mind you some people by the virture of where they work or the associations they belong to, are already getting those deals.Poor men or ordinary men do not get deals take it from me. I am a markerter and I know what I am saying. Where you pay =N = 1,000 for an item a group of people or a rich man will buy the same item at a greater quantity for =N=500.Ask your friends, even bankers they will tell you. Have you ever bothered to find out the wisdom behind companies selling their shares to a certain group of people at a heavily discounted price before they do IPO for the masses?
What Deolu posted is why he is not joining 6starttravel. It his own view. He did not say people do not join o! And he did not say you must join my club.Almost all the boards have slowed down because people have come to understand that those deals offered where made with out nigerians in mind. You are free to be 6starttravel Chairman in Nigeria o! But the question you should ask your self at the end of the day(i.e if you are able to cycle out and actually collect your money. Up DCC!!!) is,how have you been able to add value to the life of all the people that you brought into the programme.
As for Deolu being the Messiah part I think it is childish for you to insult a man you know nothing about.What I think people need to understand is that MLM or no MLM Mr Adeolu Akinyemi is the Chairman of his own company which is a Human Resources training company.He trains people for companies not for free but for good pay. Even if MLM ends tomorrow the guy will still live well.Please read his biography up there. He is a normal human being that went to normal schools, graduated got jobs and after sometime decided to take his own destiny in his hands.He does not even have a nigerian MBA talkless of one from Havard. He has not said he is the Messiah. If you have taken out time to read the other things in this blog apart fom the MLM stuff, you will know that he has put enough free material to make all of us including you messiahs that will save this nation.As for NNC, the guy is doing his own thing. Develop your own programme, if it is good people will join. This life is live and let live.
Billionares do not take foolish risks. Please read about Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, Oprah and even our own Dangote. Abraham Lincoln’s story teaches persistence when you are doing the right things. He was not persistent in giving his money to some white folk which as far as I am concerned, could be a 16-year old computer geek playing around with his computer at home given the kind of letters we have been recieving from Adam getaway.
Brother, wake up and see the light!!
I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR THE GUY THAT REPLIED ME.HAVE YOU CYCLED OUT OF ANY MLM PROGRAM LATELY?
I AM JUST CURIOUS.BECAUSE IF YOU HAVE ,YOU WOULD HAVE GOTTEN THE DRIFT WHAT I REALLY MEANT TO SAY.
MY ID ON DCC IS OTUNBAKUNLE CHECK IT OUT AND SEE HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE CYLED.
I DONT HAVE TO JOIN ISSUES WITH AN EMPLOYEE.
FIND ANOTHER JOB YOU ARE SIMPLY NOT GOOD AT WHAT YOU DO,PERIOD.
@ Adetule,
I resisted replying your comment and felt a little ok when someone decided to respond intelligently to you. It wasn’t necessary for me to respond to you again.
Let’s have a quick look however at your last comment on this article.
I HAVE ONE QUESTION FOR THE GUY THAT REPLIED ME.HAVE YOU CYCLED OUT OF ANY MLM PROGRAM LATELY?

1. Writing in capitals means SHOUTING! I wonder why you’ll be shouting… maybe you didn’t know, you are forgiven.
2. There is nobody intelligent enough to “GOTTEN THE DRIFT WHAT I REALLY MEANT TO SAY” There are no mind readers anywhere… what you write is what people read, and trust me, reading what you wrote again doesn’t make me get different ideas.
3. Ok, so you have cycled out many times from DCC… don’t you feel any guilt that you marketed people into what today is dying (dead in reality?), guess you already made your money, so what do you care… you can market them into another one.
4. Who is an employee? The person that replied you? …lol. Maybe you should ask the person first before concluding. You must be good at what you do then…what is it that you do again? The true MLM leaders in Nigeria today feel bad, they feel bad that they have marketed programs without products, and gained a reputation they don’t deserve. Everybody will not be rewarded, but everybody must at least be able to say… this is what I got.
I don’t know you Adetule, but you can do whatever you like in the pool, just don’t pee in it, lest there be gnashing of teeth…lol
