@vicjustice, great article and true!!!

I have been to all those country you have mentioned and I wonder what year you visited. Estonia is like great Russia and just trying to hide under the EU skin. Too sad for the stuff going in in Greece though, too sad 

I should also say, that I am the first black santa in the baltic/Scandi area  _{[only if you were santa before 2002]} 

I wouldnt advise anyone to go to anywhere besides North America, Australia and Western Europe. The rest is nothing but trash for the moment,  you need to go to all these countries to know

@upson

this is a great work on your part, I highly appreciate. Now I have to look for a way to get a stokebroker to start buying shares there,

[quote="ayomifull"]I have been exchanging mail with a customer service rep of UBA about the NRN but trust me i will have to appear there life and have a face to face discussion before signing any form earning money abroad is not as easy as making money in Nigeria so one has to be exra careful. I will advise you to postpose this your opening account till you are able to find your way home to their office yourself. Just my candid opinion and does not in any way means you can't do it by sending forms to them if you wish but as far as i am concerned i have to sign whatever paper in their office and hand it over personally.[/quote]thanks for that info, i am still thinking about it though. should buy some funds now and i would like that dividend is transfered to this account that is why i am hunting for an account now  

[quote="Wham"]You need to see the attitude some of their sleazy female staff display in their Transcorp Hilton Branch in Abuja
(Stupid Touts)[/quote]that is what you dont see in the part of the world I am in. Female bank staff here are like, o No dont go there!

spring bank? What is that one now, pardon  me, i have been out for a while


Updated:
Just checked their website from google. Looks impressive and clean but still doesnt have what I am looking for.

To MAYAT and every other person using online banking with Spring Bank, you have to be careful as the online banking page is not secured despite the fact that their website is well designed and planned. Someone need to inform them to get VeriSign Certificate and make  their site secured.

These days, banks in Europe and USA have the entire website secured and not just the online banking webpage!!!

From what I read on UBA's site, I can only remit money to someone in naija if I reside in UK, US and I think Canada. Is this true?

Please someone, inform me before I send the forms over to their office. Thanks

thanks aylala2002 for the post. I sincerely prefer PO!

@samstone4,

You be oga! Thanks for the info. I want to divert some of my capital on funds too as a more secured way and I can play the market on the other

Still looking for a reliable stockbroker I can start with for a min. N50,000. If I don't get one, I will continue buying from the banks when IPOs are out,

does anyone know anything about the FBN Heritage Fund
. Is it good to throw my money there?

@Mr.Risky---

omàsé gigigan ní---no blame them. Maybe people just dont know about investments. And the truth is that we are all learning

@yodiyokun

thanks for the file, that would make a good digest for now,

€ Etin,

thanks for your reply.I have been reading quite too much stuffs from UBA and that is why I am relunctant. I will have to go through their website and issues again. I heard the charges are ridiculous and that getting through to their branches in naija self na wahala. I wouldnt like all these stress when I eventually decide to visit naija

could anyone advise on a bank to use from Scandinavia without problems and I could be able to buy shares from and send cash to folks in naija through the naija account I open?

[quote="LondonCool"]When I opened my Stock a/c with Afrinvest West Africa (erstwhile SECTRUST) I did it online. When I visited Nigeria I gave them my proof of ID and signed Stock transfer forms in their office and was not asked any money to fund the account. Although all my unverified Stock portfolio is over N2m, I only have N200,000 worth of verified Stock in my CSCS a/c with Afrinvest, despite them indicating N500,000 as a minimum for opening an account with them. I advise you to go their website www.afrinvestwa.com and print out the forms and take it to their office-I doubt they would require the N500,000 amount from you.[/quote]Thank you so much for the info. The problem is I reside somewhere in Scandinavia and all I could do is operate from here with them or then through my sister there in Lagos. I am just planning to start from little and if things go fine, I could spead up the amounts on my portfolio,

I am new to the NSE so I wouldnt like to drop a huge amount at once in Naija when I know the sort of country it is  What do you think could be the way out, for me? Got any contacts there that could help, ?

I am shopping for a reliable stock broker---any one with contact details? I dont have 500,000 of 5million to spare so kindly tell me stockbrokers who I can work with and can check issues online.

abeg to dem ọgá gbógbó , and @yodiyokun,

can I have the files to obambo @ gmail dot com , please

@wanaj0,

Does Afrinvest have any min. investment sum like some other brokers with millions Naira?

read u said 500,000

and I think it is the wrong forum,
it is all about stocks here

I did got some not-too-good experiences with few Nigerian banks recently when I called. As I don't reside in Nigeria and would like to open an account, I decided to call these banks after hearing and reading about the accounts for Nigerians in diaspora. Anyway, I would like to open an account in which I could have either my Dad or Mom as the joint owner of the account so they could use the money to carry out certain projects for me.

To my biggest surpise, opening an account wasnt easy. I called few banks and this is the outcome:-

GTB needs to see me face-to-face before they could open an account for me.
Zenith would rather recommend that I open a naira account through my Dad there. That is, my dad should open me a Naira account and not dom. account where I could be able to see the balance in a for. currency and Naira.
DiamondBank would not open the diaspora account for me if I would have a joint ownership because their kind of account is only meant for just 1 individual.
Oceanic would open the account but I would not be able to transfer funds to my sister's account at GTB because they have disabled inter-banking payments due to security _{(that is how the lady told me over the phone)}

Na wa O!

I would like to have an account that could have an online facility and that I could be able to deposite/transfer money into from my foreign account and be able to see the balance in either Naira,USD,GBP or Euro. Preferably Naira and Euro. Also that I could have a joint ownership for the account and that the joint owner would have rights to withdraw money whenever he/she wants or when I instruct. Finally, when I visit NIgeria, I could be able to use the account myself anytime I am there.

So, I am now wondering how you guys could open a bank account in Nigeria when you are abroad? Please someone advise,

religion freaks us all Nigerians _fucking ^out!!!

I wouldn't say thanks to the Europeans who screwed us all up from the onset _{[since the time they got their eyes on Africa & started to Zap us up]}

All you folks in here needs to question what you believe-in alright, does it matter if Jesus is white or black? Yes it does when a fella tell it to your face that "--- even Jesus christ is white and from the bible blacks are from the line of Esau"

Now tell me if that is true and how much history/religion books have you dug into?


_{The more you know, the wise you become.}

[quote="Kobojunkie"]So I would take God's world that He was, He is, and always will be.[/quote]You saying God's world [I think you meant word] and if you meant "word" who wrote the God's word i.e the Bible and how could you confirm that it was written by those who you believed wrote it according to your faith? Wasn't it edited properly to fit the christianity we all know today?

Also, do you think of Jesus Christ as a negroid or caucasian? I think your church and all the Jesus christ movies you've probably seen all your life denotes later that is, caucasian.

How true is that? and yeas, who do you believe in-?

I am new to the stock biz in naija and I would like know what are the hot ones for now that I can put my cash in, I haeard Bagco. Any others people?
