feldido: Wishing you the best. Just work hard and keep at it even when things are at their lowest. Don't try to make fast money else you'll lose it fast. Moderation, passion, and hardwork is the key. |

China and Malasia suicide mission is not exclusive to any section of the country. There are achievers as well out riffraffs everywhere you go. I would rather engage in petty trading and grow to the size of Ifeanyi Uba, Innoson, Coscharis, Arthur Eze, Iwuanyanwu etc than die of hunger waiting for big businesses.

1 in 5 Africans is Nigerian. So 5 nominations out of 30 is underperforming. Meanwhile why Tonto Dikeh husband no dey this list? If na all this local award him go push buttons to win young CEO of the year. But if na Forbes wey dey investigate your source of wealth well well, he no follow. 1 Like |

That's nice. Word 2d young, it dnt matter if ure not on "Forbes most promising list" now, people like Innoson and coscharis were relatively unknown at 35. The story is different now. So work hard n don't rely on people's opinion of u 2be who God has made u 2be. |

I have to give credits to Kenyans, Yoruba rivals, when it comes to technological growth. I expected them to make us run for our money. I'm glad that some Yoruba technology firms are working with Kenyan Tech firms to dominate Africa. We need to kick S.A's fake black ass off the court. Technology is the future. 4 Likes |

feldido: So they're for special occasions. My suggestion is that you guys should widen your target customers to the regular public by making plastic/regular spoons. Look for business investors/customers in Education institutions, events, and at owambe parties. If you're Yoruba, it'd be easier to find customers in Oyo and Ogun. You want to sell in Oyo and Ogun..... the population is HUGE! Rich people plenty for Ogun. Where are you located and/or where do you sell? |
