A barber in Abuja will never be the same again!
What started as an ordinary morning errand turned into one of the week’s most talked‑about acts of kindness, after Nigerian businessman Chief Dr Daniel Omoyibo gifted a young barber N5 million for offering him a haircut at N2,000 instead of N5,000.
Chief Dr. Daniel Omoyibo who runs company Danmotech and described by Delta State officials as a philanthropist had just returned from the UK when he stepped into a barbershop and was billed N5,000.
He explained he only had N2,000 on him. The barber refused.
He walked into another shop nearby, where he met a barber identified as Suleiman.
Again, he said he had only N2,000.
Suleiman didn’t hesitate.
“It is still morning. I will not send you away,” Suleiman said, before giving him the haircut without argument.
When the cut was done, Chief Omoyibo made a transfer of N5 million instead of N2,000. He told Suleiman it was to help him establish himself properly in the trade.
Witnesses said Suleiman stared at his phone in shock before bursting into tears.
Asked if he had ever met Danmotech before, he replied:
“No, this is the first time I am seeing him.”
A small crowd gathered and they tried their best to hold the shocked barber from pushing down the chief who gifted him....
Awwww...the Barber's good character brought him blessings 👏

ReplyDeleteThis is a case of " money is not everything".
ReplyDeleteGod bless the giver..
Classic favourite of people expecting similar.
ReplyDeleteThank God for Suleiman. Mr rich man saw the refusal of the first barber as an affront to his ego and Suleiman got lucky. There's no point testing struggling people, using them as objects to entertain yourself when you could pay them what is due them.
If you can transfer 5 million at a go, you can transfer 5k to an honest barber who didn't cheat you but didn't want to run at a loss. Many struggling people have gambled with this kind of games for decades hoping to score big, only to end up losing their business due to ongoing losses.
Mr rich man has been cutting his hair since he got rich. How many of those barbers did he give even 50k? May people waste decades waiting for their rich employers to "bless" them and end up disappointed. Even getting your stable salary is a struggle because the aim is to keep you subjugated and without choices. Is it not in the same Nigeria that it was alleged that staff of the husband of one light skinned lady was owing months of arrears to the domestic staff, even owing the person supplying his dog's food? How many of Mr rich man's domestic staff have received 500k to establish themselves?
Thanks, you echoed my thought.
DeleteThe other barber will still go home with his profits for the day.
DeleteThis man felt the need to give to a barber who was nice to him, you come dey write as if the first barberwont go home with his earnings for the day.
If dem check ypu well, ypu dont even leave change for theae workers, its just to criticize philanthropist. If you work in customer care, you encounter people like this that responds to you the thoughtful kind service giver so generously that u will be saying i am just doing my job
As for me, i just hope the favored barber is safe.
That's it!
