How I made my first million after my NYSC – Obi Cubana
<p>Chairman of Cubana Group, Obi Iyiegbu, popularly known as Obi Cubana has revealed how he made his first million after completing the one year National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) scheme.</p>
<p><a href="https://thedailypage.ng/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/images-5.webp"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-8111" src="https://thedailypage.ng/wp-content/uploads/2021/07/images-5.webp" alt="" width="295" height="334" /></a></p>
<p>Obi Cubana, who graduated from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka in 1998, with a degree in Political Science, disclosed this in an exclusive interview with BBC Pidgin.</p>
<p>According to him, he was jobless after his graduation and he searched everywhere for job opportunities.</p>
<p>He said,“After undergoing my compulsory National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) programme in Abuja, I started searching for a job all to no avail.</p>
<p>“That made me start some small jobs and from there I became a real estate agent. I usually get five percent of every task that is successfully executed. It was along the line that I and my colleagues met a man who asked us to help him furnish his house.</p>
<p>“We did it very well that he gave me N500,000 separately from the profit of N600,000 which I also made from the deal. That was the first N1.1 million I made before I joined contract work in Abuja. I signed a contract with PPMC, made a little money, then bought my Mercedes V-boot,” he said.</p>
