Relief as MMM announces return 24hrs earlier

Scores of Nigerian’s are now heaving a sigh of relief after the controversial MMM Ponzi scheme announced via its official Twitter page that it is resuming for business a day earlier than it said it would.

MMM earlier informed when it froze the accounts of Nigerian’s due to system upgrade that it will unfreeze all Mavro accounts on the 14th of January but a message put out on social media by the scheme reveals business operations has resumed a day earlier than expected.

“This is to officially inform you that MMM Nigeria is open for business a day earlier than promised! Let’s go there Nigerians!” ‏@MMMNigeriaHelp posted on its time-line.

The announcement will surely come as a relief after a report by an online newspaper suggesting that subscribers may be in for more agony after MMM managers made a decision to further postpone unfreezing of all Mavro accounts beyond Saturday, January 14, 2017.

More than three million Nigerians, mainly unemployed, lower income earners and students of tertiary institutions patronised the programme until their accounts were frozen by the promoters, giving room for conclusion that they may have become part of an internationally coordinated scam.

I was the most happiest girl today but there is still something fishy as they are not allowing big money to get help yet.

This is an opportunity for everyone who has money with MMM to withdraw their money, I’m still certain many people with be left in shock by the time MMM finally crashes.

MMM did what Nigerian government could not do: they fulfilled a promise.
