Nigerian comedian and skit maker, Crazeclown, has taken to social media to lament the depreciated value of the stocks his father invested in years ago.
In a video shared on his Instagram page, Crazeclown disclosed that his father bought shares worth N1 million in 2002 with the hope of providing a better life for him and his siblings in the future.
Unfortunately, things didn’t turn out as expected, as the same stock is currently valued at N11,561 in 2023.
He mentioned that the stock company recently contacted him, and he was utterly disappointed by the current valuation of the shares.

His revelation has sparked a discourse online, with many netizens sharing their experiences with stocks investment. Some asserted that his father should have invested in landed properties as it would have been worth more now.
