I invite the creative ecosystem and NEAR foundation to come and see, by yourselves and for yourselves, with clear discernment, the genesis of all the blackmail against me in the creative ecosystem. Please you all should join me in the open-mindedness of the conversation in detail outline which at some point i would have to ask him as i ask him @Dedeukwu some pertinent questions and need for clarification
Yes, I wanted to keep the balance of NxM’s $500 for myself after sending you the initial upfront of $500 without questioning, I decided to keep the balance of $500 out of NxM disbursed $1000 after realizing the unfounded and extravagant budget for the abuja event. To be honest, i was a little dissapointed that a show that carried so much hype with a budget of $3,500, a whooping amount, didnt have up to 40 people in attendance. I wrote the proposal to request $1000 from NxM Treasury as a supplementary addition to the equal the budget in this C1 event proposal by @Dedeukwu, speaking of which, money was also unnecessarily requested from the Marketing DAO
This was all there was at the event, i ask you Dedeukwu Sammiee ELKHUSH, is this an event or a conventional club setting???
Speaking of which, these 40 people partly comprized of the organizing personell for the show and the others where Elkush family, and …
and quite surprising… street hookers.
There is no validity for gainsaying as this was an event i lectured with evidence below.
In passion and dedication to spreading the Knowledge of NEAR and blockchains
Yes, Thats me up there… at one time a darling of the ecosystem and soon to resume lol…
I took this decision of keeping the balance of $500 because i deemed it to be mine since i represented NxM and if there was any extra funds surplus to the initial proposed budget, It should be mine, because you all representing C1 profited more than enough from this over-hyped and over priced event, a clearly orchestrated ponzi scheme to extort money from NEAR…
I put it to you the castigator, Dedeukwu …How do we get to explain these budget anomalies below
The discrepancies i noted in the incomplete implementation of the metrics of the above proposal was the overly padded budget for very cost-minimal things actualized on ground… Examples below are:
I mean $400 to rent a club in Gwarimpa: A club in the outskirts of the capital city of Abuja
preposterous if you ask me…
$400 is 224,000 Naira in Nigerian currency and is 1/3rd of what you can use to buy a decent saloon car in the country, and am also wondering… a club that had no capacity of more than 40 people at once? Impractical
At this event? where i lectured about decentralization and Blockchains? There were no small chops whatsoever. There were not even plans to make small chops available or contact a caterer. I invite @Dedeukwu to provide clips and images of small chops served at the event and when we say small chops, down here it means snacks and light drinks… Not the drinks that people bought by themselves at this event
This is quite embarassing because while i was in Abuja, i transported myself all around on my own fare… and yes, we stayed for four days… Which we only collectively shuttled to the marketplace to buy some few things and back to the hotel…
$200 is 112,000 Nigerian Naira…
Uber rides from the ouskirts Gwarimpa to where the event held cost not more than 500 Nigerian Naira, and we only went to the heart of the city thrice during our four day stay…
Uber rides from Gwarimpa to the market place cannot cost more than $10 USD in long distance cases which we did not even ply more than twice.
This above metrics is honestly pre-posterous
@Dedeukwu Please explain who the celebrity was in this regard and pinpoint them in the picture or clips of the event. Was it wizkid, or davido or who exactly. I was at the event and i didn’t see any… why was there neede for a celebrity… for traction or crowd… and people at the event didnt number more than 40. Why would a celebrity be needed at an onboarding event, when the celebrity himself/herself doesn’t even know anything about the NEAR protocol… of what purpose does that serve? i ask this question because i know you would want to say that there was a queen at the event… Queen of what kingdom or regency, of what followership and dominion… Why was there need for that?
I wouldn’t want to say that this was a lie but i am at loss of options… Dedeukwu we were together during this event, you never talked about a radio station talkless of interview… It was never part of our itinerary or logistics regarding the event. Please provide evidence of whatever radio interview took place. What radio station? and who was interviewed?
This above observations are just a tip of the iceberg of so many discrepancies within the abuja event… costs like $200 for Miscellaneous… What were the miscellaneous costs after there were already excess amounts in the welfare packages below
and its obvious that NxM $1000 was not even intially needed to carry out this show but was requested as a largesse obviously for extortion.
I would implore the Creatives DAO group to join me in asking @Dedeukwu Dedeukwu these questions, First off…
Why are you just bringing this up now after the time elapsed off this incident, why this indictment now, at this moment.?
Because you are afraid that your integrity would be brought into scrutiny, for which the truth would be revealed. You personally invited me to your house after saying i shouldn’t lodge in hotels when i came to Lagos, you wanted my alliance after seeing my meteoric rise in the ecosystem. I was the first African to be on a DAO in the NEAR blockhain. The first African to create a DAO from scratch and you decided you wanted me around for my ideas. My things are at your house till date, Even when i told you i wanted the $500 to myself, i told you straight to your face because i felt justified, If i had an ulterior motive i could have manipulated you and said there was a delay with the funds and got my things while leaving your house. You didn’t detain my property, you invited me to bring them there after you wanted to create an alliance for us to leverage within the ecosystem, and i obliged for one sole reason: “Gratitude” …Because you were the one who introduced me to web3,
is it bad that i requested to hold the balance of NxM $500 to myself?
Not bad at all, after seeing the event that was organized with $3500, i was shocked to observe different money paths that were overly padded and unreasonably exxaggerated. and obviously, NxM funds were an excess, and i deemed it that since i handed you $500 without scrutiny for which you never accounted for anything, that i should also hold on to $500 for myself in compensation for my lecture and performance of my Alignment EP
How did i threaten you?
After refusing to remit the $500 to you, you went on a behind the scene campaign to tarnish my reputation with back talks and lie smearing. You and your cohorts in the C1 event who strategically planned the show to extort huge amounts of money ganged up to message all my friends within the ecosystem, the ones i had engagements with… All of a sudden, paul started unbridled scrutiny of my actions which has never been for the 3 months we have been managing the Beats DAO. You and your cohorts Sammie and Elkush decided to attack my reputation in a bid to bring me down, all because of the $500 balance of NxM which i later returned to the DAO because if i couldnt have it, then no one should since you all had already got enough money for yourselves from the overpadded C1 budget.
I would like the whole ecosystem to know that while all these was going on, My two laptops carrying sensitive information, My DSLR camera worth $400 and all my personal belongings including clothes and everything were still at Dedeukwu’s place. If i wanted to be fraudulent or indirect, i could have manipulated you by saying there was some delay with the funds which you would have believed while i subtly come and carry my properties at your place, but i chose not to do that, I chose to look you in the face and tell you that you made enough money from the event and that i would hold on to the NxM’s balance of $500.
I stood up to you because you have always tried to will people to your ideologies, that people should serve you, and that is why you threatened @sterryo life for leaving C1 guild to pursue his own thing, and remember you halved @6cezer 100 NEAR way back for the visual work he did for C1, you had to get your commission for subletting the contract to him, and yet you are the saint here? You have a dream to subject all blockchain activity in Nigeria under your watch, how decentralized is that my friend.
I didnt threaten you, i only made you realize what is about to befall you after all you have done and conitnued doing without penance or repentance and that there are those of us who operate by knowledge unknown to you, i am different my friend, i dont shed blood and make sacrifices to ancestors for spiritual power and leverage, my own power comes from alignment, i can teach you if you want but it comes with sacrifice my friend
I would like to address ELkush and sammie on these comments below in an obvious guise not to resolve a misunderstanding but a pure attack aimed at destroying my reputation, i have forgiven them though
ELKHUSH I would like to know about numerous reports of money problems regarding people working with me which i didnt pay. So far so good i only met you in february, i dont know you from Adam, it was my representing NxM at the event that made us meet, and how long have you been in the ecosystem to reach such a conclusion that i am greedy and have ego. I was on Beat DAO and Metaverse DAO before i met you, and i was making cool money from my contributions, do you think i would have been stupid to gamble that away for $500 which is why you have made such an irrelevant comment to context, I have designed magazines, recorded podcasts, organized communities before i met you, before the Abuja event and i have been in the ecosystem longer than you. How have i been greedy or egostic, its your biased perspective or deliberate attack to pacify your frustration on the $500 or maybe your envy of my glory which is why the African continent is still where it is today.
For sammie
Sammiee why would you make this type of comment ? was it necessary to be posted on a report? more of which a dispute was ongoing to be settled, and yet you still chose to comment after a moderator had come to settle the dispute, Why didnt you choose to air your belligerence on a different post on the governance forum?, why specifically choose that moment? I can say nothing but a deliberate attack is what was intended, not a contribution for resolution, you also were part of the Abuja event and you organized the event at a club in the outskirts with a less than 40 capacity space for $400?.. kudos my friend… we live in Nigeria…
Speaking of which… the first time i saw you, i gave you $25 of NEAR money free of charge and inspired you to be active within the ecosystem and contribute while occupying spaces, the spirt bears witness my friend and you can’t deny, if you consciously do, you are dying inside and giving me the glory of your essence for you have flouted cosmic law my friend.
Again, I used my influence and leverage within NxM to hand you the job of managing NxM guild Discord server, nobody vetted or scrutinized you, it was about who i was and the respect i had from friends and mentors in the ecosystem that granted you that advantage… and yet, you, in your vileness, turn back to the bite the finger that fed you, wherewith not even at your disadvantage, i never attacked or did anything to belittle you. Peace be unto your form.
Altogether sammie and Elkush… at the end of the event… you claimed 40 wallets were opened and activated, how come you now have 83, or is it what i think Dedeukwu told me? That ELKHUSH is an internet fraudster till the date and he has scammed up to 10 Bitcoins from innocent users, and you as his artist manager drained him all of his money, Are you people creating clone wallets with dormant mails which are bots and not humans?
It is to note that it was the respect i had for Dedeukwu for the gratitude of bringing me into web 3 that made me hearken to his invitation of being a part of the event and writing a proposal to NxM, and maybe i should have been wiser… this whole attack on my reputation within the ecosystem would not have happened. But to the discerning mind, Everything is for learning
I would appeal to whom it may concern that i have never contracted a project for which i didnt do or complete, there might be some delay or not complete delivery of how i envisaged it in the proposal but i want to assure the NEAR ecosystem that i am fighting hard fro it in the awareness mongering of its mass adoption initiative, i tell people about NEAR and web 3 concepts all the time…
I would call on vandal ted.iv chloe to help me reach out to @Paul to make him understand that i am not as i have been represented to him, that i know he has a good heart in hardwork and dedication and we have always been friends from the beginning of BeatDAO which we collectively expanded the community together.
Paul I was already off the DAO when you and Wiswiz approved these funds into my wallet… I wasnt aware that you both had decided not to pay me DAO management salary which i of course worked for. I mistook the funds sent to me as DAO management salary because i was already off the DAO council telegram group and the DAO astro. I figured you intended to pay the producers and editor @w4R involved directly from the DAO
Show was approved in monthly proposal to be $1000USD in NEAR
You commented
[quote=“Paul, post:2, topic:14179, full:true”]
Sounds soo good my friend!
[/quote
]
This i requested for by myself, as the first half for executing the show. I was present
This i wasn’t aware of because i was already off the DAO and didnt know the payment description it carried, I figured it was my DAO management salary because the balance for the show was still in DAO treasury which i never requested while still on the DAO…
Paul This has been a huge misunderstanding my friend and am quite sure that it majorly stems from a bias of your clouded mind of what you were told about me from my detractors
I want Paul to know that while i was not fully present in BeatDAO activities was because i was in a haste to actualize what i have always wanted to do, to spread Peace, love, enlightenment and awakening to the world through spiritual DAO. Paul please do understand that i was busy scripting introductions and context for podcasts, for which people could listen to and break out of the religious moulds that holds them down from reaching their full cosmic potential, I was chasing spiritual dao as a way of grounding myself in finding a purpose to live… I have been a seeker my whole life, wanting to know the meaning of existence and it started coming together, then NEAR protocol came to the funding.
I write these words for how they are without any prejudice to anyone but to how they are and a justification for my actions, which i would admit that some might not be fully morally satisfactory from some corners, i am willing to receive admonishing and learn from anyone who wishes to advice, just like some of my mentors have already done…
@tabear I promise to complete the visuals to this project by early april
I urge the ecosystem and the NEAR Foundation to wade into this matter and come to a resolution for all parties concerned. I want to talk to my friends again without any form of resentment from them coming from lack of trust. I miss community activity, Spiritual DAO which i started is also doing fine without me after the council suspended me, i am not in a rush to join as the DAO is not about me but about the content and the souls that are finding liberation through its content and engagement.
I am not assuming the stance of the saint, but i have in my own patriotism contributed to the NEAR Ecosystem in some ways
3 magazines
Recorded podcasts for spiritual DAO
Near weekly podcast
A testing sample as at back then
Discord trivia
I started the NxM Discord Trivia as a way of boosting traffic for the server. This initiative is still used till date by the NxM guild… by the same person i gave the discord server mangement to who felt the best way for repayment was to join in on a smear campaign to attack my grounded reputation
Among everything, i was part of the ideation process for the foundational tenets of the Metaverse DAO which was historically archiving NEAR’s antecedents
And i was also community biulder for the Tamago project: A music streaming platform on the NEAR Blockchain before i got suspended after all the news circulating the ecosystem about me, speaking of which, i was loved by the tamago people and i was in tune with the initiative that i didn’t ask for any pay whatsoever for the first month of duty because of how much i personally identified with the project…
I enjoin the NEAR Foundation and the ecosystem at large to wade into this matter thoughtfully. Once again, I am not saying am the saint, but i am saying, that i am not gulity of all the allegations and attack on my reputation as these are just from bellligerence hinged on mental insecurity and self unwholeness which has been the african plague and a root cause of the continent’s current situation.
Creatives moderators and all in large… he wtihout sin should cast the first stone,
three things i urge for you to know what i stand for
- Listen to my EP
- Join the Spiritual DAO Telegram channel (no pride, but its my creation
- Folow my instagram: @ freedom_and_flow check the posts and the dates inclusive so you can have a glimpse of where i am coming from
Thank you community,
And as for Dedeukwu Sammiee ELKHUSH Have we all done our KYC?
