Beauty and Brain

Nigerians really have great drives. We survive all odds, competing shoulder-to-shoulder counterparts from more privileged countries.

Bill Gates, Dangote, Bezos didn't step foot into any business school yet they are among the worlds richest men.
Goin to business school won't make you a successful business man, its what youre made of

Nigerians always got the spirit to excel off shore. The needed structure is the hindrance back home.

My advice for African entrepreneurs is don,t copy oyinbo business model. Start a business and as long as you are making money to pay your bills, you are good to go.

Nice information from http://www.raphblog.com.ng

The Igbo spirit and not Nigeria spirit

Great

This is indeed a great innovation, Kudos to them on promoting literature on the internet.

Goin to business school 5 make you a successful business man, its what youre made of

...you can say that again within the Nigerian context; doing business in Nigeria and succeeding.. building it from start-up into a notable brand is another kettle of fish. Abeg Harvard no get the 9j business 101 formula
