Yes you need a domiciliary account...thats for sure but they should be able to open that account on the go for you without you needing to go there is what I'm saying.
creativeinventor: I spoke to them and they still said I needed a domiciliary account, omo I'm confused
Correct..... My only fear is that banks have been known to be conniving with the BDC operators..... I've seen bankers tell customers there is no dollars in the branch.... Only for a BDC operator to mater come and collect tens of thousands of naira.... All because they will end up tipping the banker.
Nigeria problem isn't all about changing policy.... We need to change our mindset....
Look at the above video, it happened last week Saturday. .... Later the fools in the video will blame the government for bad governance.... When it's them that sold their future and ours into the hands of the criminal politician...
We said this long time ago before now. Government don't have business funding the BDCs ...like where does that happen. Sell dollars to the banks to fund imports and other requirements while the BDCs source from tourists or others exchanging for Naira.
Never heard the British government or any other government funding Thomas Cook (a BDC) but here in Nigeria, the government keeps funding Mallam ABC bureau de change what do you expect
It will encourage round tripping and provide funds to the BDCs ...infact the BDCs would sponsor round tripping so they can continue their business in black market
abhosts: So why not sell directly to banks so that customers can have a higher dollar spending limit of their Naira Cards?
I'm familiar with the industry and so what I'm saying is correct. I also have accounts with the banks and have seen adverts on this too following the CBN's naira for dollar promo but I've not had cause to receive an inflow into my dom account as I don't want to hear stories cashing out . Don't be scared.
creativeinventor: Thanks bro for your reply, have you received through this method, I don't want to make any mistakes because the money is meant for my tuition, I also read on WorldRemit website and western union that I would need to have a domiciliary account to receive.
Just give the sender your UBA naira account number to send the money, once it gets to the UBA, they automatically create a domicilliary account for you in dollars. The sender however may need to use either WorldRemit or Western Union or MoneyGram and select the beneficiary account credit
creativeinventor: Hello, good day everyone. Please I need an explanation on the title of the post. I use Uba savings account, according to my research I would need a domiciliary account.
Abeg I wanted to know what other ways can I receive into my account. Has anyone received with their uba savings account and what mode of transfer did you use. I thought I could use Western Union but I saw that I needed a domiciliary account.
Please can you guys help what other legit ways to receive the funds.
Your absentee father has done well. While you think of what to do with your money, Go lock it up in a mutual fund account - Money Market Fund either with ARM, StanbicIBTC or others to earn you small interest. You can also look through the Investment section of Nairaland for other options.
Beware of hawks though and those that will want to advise you to invest in crypto, binaries, ashawo, empower a woman, play odds etc. What you don't understand, don't get involved.
I have always read on here about people asking for business plans and looking for ideas to enable them manage the resources they have for a particular business.
I am in my late 20s. My Mom had me out of wedluck and ever since the pregnancy my dad never showed up as both were teenagers.
Life has been from Pilar to post and from hand to mouth. Though through the help of aunties and uncles I was able to get educated and I have served as well.
So just last week my mom (who later got married) called me and told me that my Dad reached out to her and she gave him my phone contact.
He called me yesterday and after we talked for the first time in my life he told me to get a business i could do with 300,000
Pleases guys I know he wronged me by running away and he hasn't set his eyes on me since I was born, but I sure do need this money.
Nairalanders come in and help me with business suggestions and ideas pls.

don4real18: Some months ago, I was supposed to get married to a lovely lady (Alias-Celia) whom I thought the universe made just for me. I find it unfortunate that this beautiful story was just never meant to be. This write-up is my story. ______________________________________________ Five years ago, while we both stared at the moon sitting in my compound and telling tales of our childhood, I studied her profile. She had a perfect-shaped jaw with rounded edges, full lips, and her ability to smile with so much ease. Her skin glowed against the moonlight, and her aura filled with so much innocence. It was no surprise when I finally popped the question asking her to be my girlfriend.
Four days later, I got a yes as her reply, and it became a beautiful relationship. Our companionship was a show of true love, or so I thought. She taught me to be a better kisser, and I made her be a better lover. We did almost everything together, and when challenges came, we solved them even though she was stubborn; A bit more than me.
Many moons down the line of love and sometimes distrust, she was to relocate to the FCT, the state where her family resides. I knew I was going to miss her, and it wasn't easy letting her go.
We did part ways at the airport, and ever since then, we were always on calls. I did notice later that I did most of the calling, and as time went on as it must, the regular calls became once in a while, and soon, it became longer.
I did play a little with other girls and tried getting into a relationship with others, but it just didn't work out. Perhaps, I wanted the kind of love that they could not give in return. It was no surprise when years later, my calls with Celia became regular and, I didn't mind doing most of the calling.
Soon, I traveled to Abuja, and she didn't seem enthusiastic about seeing me, even though my love clawed at my heart with a renewed burst of energy. This time, I decided that I wouldn't let go. I stayed in FCT for a while, I met her family, and I guess her feelings returned.
I returned to Lagos to continue working, and some months down the line, I was in Abuja again to see the one that I loved. We agreed that she would have to come to Lagos, and some months after I left Abuja, she arrived in the rowdy Lagos.
She met my family, and I popped the question, "will you marry me?" in a romantic atmosphere, and she was so happy that she was going to spend the rest of her life with me.
We made plans until the event of Corona took place, and it greatly affected my business. I became broke, but that didn't stop me from traveling to 3 different states to meet her family members and her pastor in FCT.
We did agree that we were going to have a small wedding, and the day of the introduction came, and I traveled with my family, spent a lot of money on hotel bills, etc. It did go well, and that was when it started.
She reneged on our agreement on the size of the wedding. She told me that she wanted to have her dream wedding although she had no money. I could not bring myself to spend so much on a wedding only to end up eating hand to mouth in my marriage. It became a back and forth argument. Her dad wanted it small, but her siblings wanted it big. My mum did try to advise her, but she felt my mum shouldn't have a say in her wedding being a supposed generation Z.
I did have to look for ways she would be happy without spending too much. Then the counseling issue came, and I was informed to come back to Abuja by her pastor. It was inconvenient, so I told her to recommend virtual counseling because I'm not ready to go and spend a lot staying there. She was mad at my response, saying that it was disrespectful, suggesting such to a supposed man of God, making it disrespectful to God.
I did try to let her know that we could use the money to do something else, but she was adamant. After some time, I did succumb to her demand, but she felt that it should not have led to an argument in the first place and decided to call the wedding off. I tried calming her down and even suggested that we postpone it, but she wouldn't budge with a reason so petty. It hurt at first. It made me lose focus for a while, but I guess I've pretty patched up now hence my decision to share with you all.
So he should wait for the interest to accumulate more while looking for the lady?
Best he starts paying and look for the lady if he can. The more he waits, the more the interest build up.
Reference: 'When' on a loan. Have you heard something called interest. There is not a kobo in Nigeria today doing well if it is not expanding at least 30 percent p.a.
Try and pay off the loan and let go. Nemesis will catch up with her if she knowingly did that. If not she will refund you back when things get better for her.
I have an issue at hand which I need advice of the best line of action to take.
I use to work in a bank here in Abuja, until I resigned in May 2020 and now work in a finance house (a loan firm, also here in Abuja),
January this year (Jan 2021), one of my former colleagues at the bank called to beg me to help her process a loan with my current firm, as she has an urgent need for money & will pay back in 2 months.
Well, I ignored at first, but after series of begging & pestering me, I considered the risk involved,
She wanted #150,000 Her take home was a little over #100k (after tax & pension).
So I agreed & help her facilitate the loan, she got disbursement & details of interest and maturity date. 2 months down the line, I called to notify her of her repayment, to which the said she will may payment in two days time (the loan due date was 31/03/2021) But instead of making payments she disappeared,
So first week of April, I went to the bank to check on her & was told she resigned from the bank some weeks ago, ever since then she has been giving me one excuse or the other,
Now, I have been held liable of making the repayment at work, since I was the one who approved the loan and the applicant (the customer has absconded).
Secondly, the particular lady no longer pick my calls, she also moved from her old apartment.
I have all relevant paperwork with me, Please, your candid advice on the best action to take is really appreciated,
A lesson to all - these so called freedom fighters all have plan B and or already based abroad. They don't care a fart about you and me.
They're only being used by the politicians to fight their own cause and when the chips are down, they take off leaving you and I behind to suffer the brunt of what they started. Join them at your own peril
ignis: FG delegation in court, wants agitator in custody until extradition Desperately wanted by the Department of State Services in Nigeria, with an international arrest warrant hanging around his neck, and facing immigration-related offences in Cotonou, the embattled Yoruba Nation agitator, Sunday Adeyemo, aka Sunday Igboho, is seeking asylum in the Republic of Benin, Saturday PUNCH has learnt.
It was gathered that the 48-year-old activist resorted to the option after he was arrested on Monday, July 19, 2021, by the International Criminal Police Organisation at the Cadjèhoun Airport in Cotonou, Republic of Benin.
Igboho was arrested with his Germany-based wife, Ropo, at the airport while they reportedly tried to catch a flight to Germany around 8 pm on Monday.
Although the Cour De’appal De Cotonou ruled on Thursday that Ropo should be released unconditionally as there were no charges against her, Igboho is spending his first weekend in a police cell in Cotonou.
He is being tried for migration-related issues after he was allegedly caught with a fake Beninese passport at the point of his departure to Germany through an Air France flight.
“He (Igboho) was already at the airport with a passport. The immigration officers suspected his passport to be fake and so they stopped him. A passport was allegedly forged for Igboho in the Benin Republic for the purpose of the Germany trip. At the airport, they discovered he was the one,” a source familiar with the matter told Saturday PUNCH.
The source, who craved anonymity, however, said although an application had been filed for Igboho as a political refugee in Germany, processes had also been completed to file another application for asylum for him in Benin Republic.
“Igboho has already applied for asylum in Germany and he hopes to file a similar application in Benin Republic in the coming days,” the source said.
The source also said that there was the possibility that the Beninese Government would drop the migration-related offences brought against Igboho over alleged forgery of passport.
The leader of Igboho’s legal team, Yomi Alliyu (SAN), had also in a statement noted that his client could not be extradited because the 1984 Extradition Treaty between Nigeria, Benin and two other countries excluded political refugees like Igboho.
Meanwhile, upon their arrest, Igboho and his wife were detained in police custody in Cotonou but the Cour De’appal De Cotonou ruled on Thursday that Ropo should be released unconditionally as there were no charges against her.
The court session lasted for about six hours with intermittent breaks.
The court, however, ruled that Igboho be remanded in police custody till the next date of adjournment which is likely to be next week.
Igboho spends weekend in Beninese cell, court resumes sitting next week Although the Cour De’appal De Cotonou, adjourned the hearing of the case against Igboho, till Friday (yesterday), the hearing didn’t hold. The implication of this is that Igboho would spend the weekend in the Beninese cell.
Saturday PUNCH gathered that the hearing would hold next week while the umbrella body of Yoruba Self-Determination Groups, Ilana Omo Oodua, said it would hold on Monday. The group, led by ex-Senator Banji Akintoye, was in court to monitor Thursday’s hearing.
The group disclosed this in a statement signed by its Communications Manager, Maxwell Adeleye, and titled, ‘Update on Chief Sunday Adeyemo Igboho’s Case in the Republic of Beni
Did the quantity change? I believe they just reduced the packaging because before almost half of the packet was empty and you could shake the powder inside with sound, with this, I'm sure it filled up the pack and remains the same quantity and quality
