HELLO all,
           decided to join the band wagon of nigerians going back home permanently.  since i DONT plan on seeking employment down there, was wondering what advice all you seasoned vets have to offer me.
i plan on going home initially with $$$( sweat equity btw) and i was wondering what type of biz i could go into that would  be lucrative enough to sustain myself and  soon to be family.
thanks in advance.
all advice is much appreciated.  btw, i plan to live in either Lagos or ibadan.

I happened to be in ur shoes and thsts why probably I am the first to respond, I am actually fed up with this oyibo land and I really looking @ moving, I have tickets to naija for 1 month to see and may just extend my reeturn dates for a year. I also dont plan to work and need some serious info on legit source of income. I will be looking on ur post to see if any reasonable suggestions are made

Mr Mendomp.I have 11 manuals on types of business one can do on his own,go to www.afroantics.com,click on manuals and make your choice.Thanks,Ibelegbu c promise.

, wel for me, i will sugest haulage business for you though some members will kick against it but thats what i do nw. If you can bring in a mack truck from US,when it comes to nigeriau fix the back called flatbed and start lifting container from the port.This can give you as much as 300k per month after expences.If u cant do the running around u can get a manager for that.for more info mail me on henrycnwokorie@yahoo.com

Thank u Protocol,
I have thought about that but I have not really found anyone who is well grounded in it, everybody says this and that but in ur case u have said u actually engage in it so I may take up ur offer and send u an e-mail, as for the hassle thats what I do, I was born to be a hustler, I have just been out of the system for some time and I need some reintroduction again.The moment u stay too long in dis obodo oyibo u start to have some funny mentality and a one time rist taker would turn into jelly fish. Thanx a million

Nigeria is awash with so many business opportunities. Despite all the talk about poor infrastructure and bad business environment, there is loads of money to be made here in Nigeria.
I returned to Nigeria a few years back and I must admit that the country is awash with money. I've probably made much more money in my few years here than I made throughout my stay in Europe and The U.S.

There is a lot of business opportunities, but one advise I would give is that before you make your final move, come back home for a month or two and do some research. After that, you should be able to identify what business you would most likely want to venture into and the cost implications of such a business.

You would have to fund you business completely from your own income as banks are not likely to hand you loans. So prepare your capital before you come.


These are a few area that are loaded with opportunities and would definitely give you quick returns on your investment.

Retail/Distribution of FMCGs.
Food Processing
Transportation/ Haulage.
IT/ Telecommunications
Furniture making
Building/Construction
Real Estate
Automobile Servicing
And an endless list of others!

The whole logic about starting any business is first, that there is a yearning market for whatever you choose to do and secondly, that you have knowledge and passion for the business you have chosen to venture into. Like I said earlier, take a trip to Nigeria first and assess the market b4 taking a firm decision on what exactly you would be going into.

to protocol,
thanks for the advice sir, pls check your mail i am sending you an email.
once again thank you.

Great advice,
like I said I already a confirmed flight ticket for end of may and will be there for a month, I have the funny feeling i will be staying longer as I plan to do as much research as possible, I am already coming with male and female clothes that when sold would sustain me for my living expeses, recharge card , gas etc. maybe nairaland would actually be a good place to start advertising my male and female clothings I want to sell. LOL.I, ko easy

Memdomp
