Walmart in Nigeria is certainly not a good thing.

See what Tesco Stores are doing in the UK: farmers are getting poor or being driven out of business by tescos price demands, not to talk of the thousands of small retailers tesco has driven out of business.

Walmart may creat a number of jobs, but they'll be driving a lot more people out of work, particularly in the villages, and guess what? ,  most will then head into the cities.

,  and for some post I read a minute ago: Harrods isnt opening in Nigeria. There is only one harrods branch, and its staying that way.

Who cares !!! at least Tesco creates lots of jobs that would have a positive multiplier effect on the economy(in terms of more disposable income,increased spending ,tax income for the govt) and would invariably improve the nations economy not to talk of the increased competition it would create in the primary sector (and would allow the country make its much needed transition to a fully operational secondary and third sector)which would inevitably lead to the development of the country.Your comaprison to the Uk is very faulty,the Uk is a developed country .Like China and the BRIC countries what we need in Nigeria is foreign investments-we should encourage it and not compare ourselves to nations that are ahead of us in terms of development(by probably hundreds of years).

What research have you carried out to suggest farmers would get poorer,on the contrary I would imagine it would create jobs in the rural sector as there would be more demand for their products and would inevitably increase efficiency as competition would grow.In the current economic climate ,any hint of foreign investment should be applauded and not discouraged,for any organisation to decide to operate in Nigeria,be commercially aware that they are most likely closing down operations elsewhere probably because of business costs,Nigeria has all the potential to be the next China( maybe even more) apart from infrastructural constraints we have the knowledgable workforce,cheap labor force and we speak english.Given the opportunity Nigerians would work like horses so I would personally support any positive investments to the country that would create jobs and let us comprehend that we dont have to work in oil companies to earn a decent living, just my 10 cents
