Son Of David said”Palmwine tapper built a detached duplex and bought a Mercedes by climbing 53 palm trees and selling 24 gallons of palm wine daily. If na so, the beer parlour owners for Oluwole tarmac for don buy jet. Perspire to perspire, until the day we’d hear he keeps hostage for kidnappers.

Kings man said “Na him dey tap the whole palm wine wey dey his village nii? From the story he singlehandedly does his work And mind you palm trees have seasons that it won’t be running that much Even at that you can’t get 2 1jar 4rm 1palm tree in a day

The Magna Carta said “Super man? 19 hours out of 24 climbing palm trees 🌴👉🏽How many hours he spend selling the palm wine?

👉🏽How many hours he sleep?

👉🏽How many hours he spend with family, friends (socializing)?

The story have a lot of holes.

Mr Mo Snr said “That is the biggest lamba so far this year. Rubbish story. People take advantage of the fact that most Nigerians do not critically analyse stuff to drop all sort of lamba. The extent of construction of that duplex and cost of the Benz wld be nothing less than N50m.”
Emperor said “The story is true,, he lives near our community. Palm wine is a big business in the southeast. The profit keeps rising business as younger ones don’t want to go into the profession. The man have workers. If you climb 53 tree 3× per day, you will die before 6 months.”
