Pls lets excuse shortCaller, we can't all blame him, if Nigeria was a country with a relative percent of trustworthy individuals he won't have written what he wrote. He meant well only if he had calibrated his written words differently. If what he wrote saved one soul, or struck a stone on someone's investing intelligence, then it was worth it. While there are good Nigerians trying to make good and decent living by doing the right thing, there are so many who visit this site daily to scan for vunerable individuals. And that is why i can't blame shortcaller. If a finger was pointed at you via his words, correct him but don't throw curses. Your curses will only make other readers who probably thought you were making some sense to think twice. Because if u have a clean heart tho! an annoying accusation was made, it is equally laughable by those who are sincerely and shouldn't cost much to say so.

@ShotCaller,

While i appreciate your call to awareness. I dont know the other guys, If you read my post, i stated that, "i prefer Stagger's Plan" I did not say invest with Stagger, and i also gave in heads-up on how to be ahead of the game incase he feels short changed by designers who would wanna do away with him when they get familiar with the customers, and that was why i brought up the issue of having is personal brand name that will be written on the suit. Secondly only a fool will Invest N500,000 on suits, he could go to balogun by good materials and send it to a suit designer, after designing he takes them to his friends in the bank bingo! he is into business. N50,000 will give him a start-up. He certainly doesnt have to go with Stagger, there are alot of good suit designers at balogun. The Suit i sewed at Balogun 3yrs ago at a cost of N8,000 with the material, my friends in the U.S cant believe it was hand made not to talk of made in Africa. So read and digest before concluding. Like i said i like appreciate your call to awareness. If i wasnt the one who posted it, i probably would think like you and that is if i didnt read in between the lines.

As a banker you are in a slightly difficult position to run a business. Those who are asking you to go into ecommerce or anything that has to do with internet are not taking into consideration the non availability of electricity and high cost of internet service which you must deal with, many of these guys like myself are writing from abroad and that is why they can respond more frequently.
You are in no way in a position to use your bank facility except you are a senior officer, i cant even imagine the work load you have to deal with in the bank to start with.

Barbing and hair saloon would have been a great idea, but i tell you power generation will run you down, apart from the fact that you will have to deal with competitors who have along established customers, the issue of generator, gas and generator mechanic would be a pain, especially when they know you are a banker.

However, you have a way out if you are married and your wife has the time to manage your business for this i would suggest you look into a business that will not require you to be wholly dependent on electricity. Tho!, its difficult to come up with one, but there are many. I would prefer STAGGER'S PLAN because for one you are already in the system and all you need do is where the suits and let the superiority speak for itself. Even your boss and friends in the bank will come calling and that way, you might even be forced to resign your bank job to take advantage of the business full time. Make sure your draft your agreement in such a way that you can pull the plugs whenever you feel uncomfortable. Also try to add some quality perfumes to your collection, as a banker your know what your neighbors in the bank like.

When drafting your agreement considering getting a brand name that will be 100% yours which will be supplied to your bank customers just incase the deal fails in the near future and you need to opt out and continue with another partner that way they brand name lives on. Quality is critical, so dont compromise quality for cost.

This is completely wrong!, Abiola's money wasnt clean, he was also a CIA agent and helped in toppling Idiagbon's regime. That was one of the reasons IBB didnt hand over to him, because they knew themselves.
There is nothing tribalistic about it. I rather see Fashola's name at the national stadium especially if he continues what he's doing. If the yorubas are worried about tribe let them bring out their sons who are without blood or stain to replace Abiola's name at the National stadium. We want good leaders whom our kids can look on to and emulate not criminals who think they can steal today and come back 20yrs later to use that stolen wealth to run for an election.

If it sounds to good to be true it probably is.
@avio

I will learn from you if N75,000 can fetch me N200,000-N300,0000 on a regular basis. I m not a politician, I dont have a need for $134,000.

The killing of yusuff come with mixed feelings. While i welcome it, i strongly believe he should have been brought before a competent court tried, and intelligence should have been gathered from him, after which he should have been beheaded using sharia law as a tool. This will send a strong message to those poverty stricky bastards in the north who have over time killed christians for no reason. All they do is wake up one day and decide lets teach these christians a less. For goodness sake how can anyone in his right mind call for nigeria to be islamitized?
Funny enough many of these guys are not from Nigeria, rather they are from chad and Niger. Well they now know not to dare Nigeria.

this is a dead man walking ruling us.

o boy who be that guy when dey hold goat? hahahahaha

Have u ever been to china?, what is your purpose of going to china?

Definitely is safe to say no money no travel simple as A.B.C and it wont be wise for you to borrow and travel or sell property to travel that is why your purpose of travelling is very important.

naija will always be naija, dem fit no violate am now, but when condition get K-leg e go happen. No be dem say na condition make crayfish bend!!!

Oh, boy the place fine o, how i go take enter U.S.A prison any idea, nitori-olorun ejo. People wen dey that place sef better pass man wen free for naija.

Wahala dey, how can N500,000 get someone into realestate when it cant even buy a land??, pls explain.
How can one invest N75,000 and earn $134,000 in 6months , this is the height of abuse on nairaland.
Even Madoff didnt do it in 6month, he did it over a decades.

A frozen silicon gel rapped around this fan or your local fan at home gives you cool a/c when it blows, funny aint it. That way you have comfort at home when u come back from a hard day's job and Nepa brings its disappointment to your door step.

I will post pic of the silicon gel soon.

Here below is a 7" smart tv with a 3way powering system, which includes AAA battery

*The bulb below tho expensive uses 1.3 watts of electricity with this bulb your electric bill for powering it in a year is less than N300naira isnt that amazing.
*The fan below uses 'D' batteries and come with smart speakers to play music when power is out.
*The lamp below attracts solar during the day to power its self at night.

We all need to start thinking smart and how to leave the national electric grid to the govt. European countries who have little or no access to the sun are making use of it to power their electronics and it makes us from Africa look dumb!!!

If you think dollar is gonna drop think again, the price is already going up at the dutch auction system, the only reason it has not reflected in the black market is (a) the already high margin level (b) the mallams/alhajis are trying hard not to make it look as if their own (lamido) is weak when it comes to forex. When the bubble becomes to heavy it will burst then we all will confess. The current price at the black market is artificial, i say hold on to your dollars if you have any, and if you need to buy, buy now.

I m speechless. Yaradua is developing himself to be the worst president we ever had. He should be careful cos if all Nigerians curse him and wish him death he will go the way of Abacha.
This is why we need true federalism enough of govt enacting polices against other region for his region.

Try other services or google it out

Solar is not really dat expensive if individuals start small. It will be insane for anyone to use solar to power his or her A/C.
One can start with 60-100 solar powered watts to power the basics, tv, radio fan and bulbs. Especially for those who are just graduating for childhood to manhood e.g Students of higher learn. Should ensure they purchase smart electronics. Like radio, tv, bulbs and fan. There are green bulbs in the U.S today that emitts over 100watts light but are powered by 1.3watts. Thts good even in saving electricity bills today only if you have the smart meter install in your house. Also there are smart tv that are powered by 3 AAA batteries. Smart a/c power by a fan and iced silicon raped around the fan so that when the fan blows it emitts cold air for hours just like in an a/c. These are things we should all be looking into by doing this with less than 30k naira one can successfully ignore nepa and continue to a path of solar dependence.

Pls dont blame the canadian embassy, Canada and New zealand are the most accepting nations in the world. All u need do is find a way to arrive at the airport, Our people bleeped up big time, only recently a naija man was granted assylum in canada under treat to his life in naija only to be caught few months later scamming with credit cards. When he was taking to the immigrations court for deportation, see smart man dey cry, lol.

An old man u think has no reason to run in canada will run, even a day old baby will refuse to return to naija, not to talk of guys that have a high IQ. But that is not to say they had the intention of not returning they were simply caught up in the mix.

na today?, this wan don come again abeg make dem check all the failed banks, cos its no new thing that police officers are now contractors. Yeye man, wetin e wan take ensure crime free society abi na the half back police men wen the only language dem dey hear for road block na N20 naira

To ensure a crime free society the naija police force needs to be completely overhauled, minimum requirement to join police force should be upgraded to OND, we cant have graduates roaming the street and primary 6 holders will be in the force. State policing must be encourage so that lagos can set the pace and other states can come and learn from the ideas of fashola, highest ranking police officer in the state should be a democratic appointment and select by the vote of the people in the community and not by the president or IG who are so far away and dont even know the happenings of the community. So that anyone with good ideas on how to perfect the police force and solve crime can come on board and be voted in. As done in U.S.A!

@Becomrich
How can we check your record when canada wont even give us the visa to reach there. Your name sef is suspicious becomrich how?? you didnt complete it by hard work or by fraud. Pls i want to come and check your record so ask them to give me the visa so i can check and see if it is true that all Nigerians in canada are not criminal, because we really need to confirm it. Anything i do after checking ur record na for me and canada immigration. No conclude oh!, i never say i go run. But when i reach i go decide, make i reach first.
For now i am certain i will return to naija after checking your record, but you know say my mind fit change sha, but e never change yet! Maybe when i see skyscappers, clean road and 24hrs electricity my mind go change.

These guys are fucking racist. There isnt a black man in America who has had a racial profiling issue with the cops. Just this year alone i have had 2 experiences. Well, i recently got my self a small digital recorder and i m hope it happens again, i can sue their ass with the highest amount possible.

Just 3weeks ago i had same issue, It was 8.30am i had resume 30 mins early and was alone in the office, Imagine a police officer telling u he saw you turned to get a coffee and you disappear like i was suppose to say hey officer i'm here!!! , It was so unbelieveable i didnt even notice him, didnt know he was hiding profiling me from 500 yards away in a coffee shop. Meanwhile i was at work, i step out to pick some files from my car and the officer quickly drove in and was like catch ya!, lol it was like a scene out of the movies. He asked if for an I.D, he asked what i was doing where i was, i told him i worked in the facility he came in pretended like he wanted to send a distress call and after a while, told me that he saw me and before he could say jack i disappeared, he smile over it but i wasnt smiling cos' i was angry for one even if he had wanted to racial profile me, he should have seen that i had no tatoos on or earrings, neither was i sagging my pants. Worst off it wasnt as if there was a distress call for a black man or a robbery had just gone down, so there was no reason for him to racial profile me in the first place Tho! my work place is wired with 6 cameras it wont make much case for me in the court cos' it has no voice recording ability. I'm hoping it happens again. I have a lawyer who will not charge me a penny by get 50% of the outcome if i win.

I feel sorry for the cute children, eya, their trip to canada would have added glamour to their resume in future. But we cant blame the canada embassy, infact they took the right decision. The west are not like Nigeria, they have datas to back up their refusal. They no how many Nigerians have gone there to study or for sport and never return but to seek frivolous asylum. The best thing is for the president to weigh into the matter and stand as guarrantor for the children, Or for Nigeria to post 1Billion naira bond after all they are going to represent the nation. Canada is not like Yankee. Their immigration system can be taken advantage of just like in New-zealand. All you need do is arrive at the airport and you can claim anything to stay. They do not have forceful removal system as is done in U.S, UK or Europe so that make them very weak.

If Nigeria post 1 billion naira bond and any of the kids refuse to come back alive, we loose the money, Even if anything happens to one of them like accident and God forbid anyone does not come back alive we loose the money, lol . see deliberation for senate floor. Senators go dey throw blows. Hausa man go say kei, we dont need this, let them stay and chop eba for Nigeria. Or if they wanna see fine sky scapper let them come to Abuja. Even Yaradua will say lets organise our own competition here and invite canada na same thing    

As long as the baby is a human, that baby requires passport and visa, but not ticket that is if the baby is 1-11 months old. All they will do is provide you with a special seat (seat with more leg and seat room)that allows them to trap on a baby rest in front of you. And no additional fee is required. But if the baby is above 1.5yrs old in that case you will need to pay, dont know how the payment arrangement goes.

It is mainly in 9ja and probably African countries that mothers endorse kids on their passport other countries in the west babies obtain full passport, which is suppose to be the case to prevent baby swaping.

Candle making is one of the most lucrative business you will ever get involved with for those with the "can do attitude".
It is also a business where availability of electricity wont affect your product, because any upcoming small business person will always put electricity into consideration before venturing.
We produce environmentally friendly candles. Candles made both locally and imported have for long been done without regards to the environment poluting the buyer's house with excessive carbon,  This is why we are introducing  environmentally friendly candles to the Nigerian market soon, which will be 100% local contents. Candles making involves more than just buying fabricated materials or parafin wax. There are more than four waxes used in candle production of those two can be regarded as full local content waxes which are the most environmentally friendly wax. And yes parafin wax isnt among because it is an imported wax.
Most people who get into candle production dont last, they burn out their capital as fast as candle burns out, because like every other agressive producer they think its all about melting and pouring. Well, it is much more than that.
We shall be holding a practical candle making seminar in Nigeria by November-2009, december-2009 and January-2010, feb-2010 at Lagos, Abuja, Kano, Calabar, Benin, and Rivers.
Where we shall perform practive productions with various candles types e.g, tea-light, scented, colored, special birthday candles, tape, votive, designer shape, floating.
participants shall also  be taught how to make colorful candles, special birthday candles using alphabets, and scented candles.
Candles are produced at specific temperatures to ensure the producer doesnt run at a loss or the product is finished to perfection. Same goes for color candles and scented candles. Heating temp. are different from pouring temp. and cooling temp. Wicking size (width) is important because it deciedes how much carbon is emitted to the atmosphere!
Paperwork is very important in every aspect of production, be it computer, electrical, car manufacturing etc. that is why we shall teach production documentation including temperatures, etc, tracking, product introductory letter to consumers. Before production the first thing that comes to the producer is how do i sell my product, we shall teach marketing ideals both risk and risk proof aspect.  Material safety data sheet (M.S.D.S) Candle production comes with a great deal of fire risk. That is why we shall also include  material safety data sheet, so that each producer would not end up burning a rented shop or house.  Do you know that with a minimun of N30,000 naira and maximum of N50,000 you can start candle production?, Yes you can as long as you already have a production location, which can be in one's home or shop. We shall also teach how to start small and grow big. We can also help you source producing equipments

Cost of our seminar is N5,000 per participant for all locations except Abuja, cost of the seminar at Abuja is N10,000 per participant (Due to high cost conference centers at Abuja hotels)  which will only be payable on at the venue of the seminar.  Please indicate your interest in participating here and i shall keep you informed of time and date as we progress or for further details and notification updates as the the dates draws nearer send email to Ken@mail2dude.com, +12699245027 title: I'm interested in attending candle making seminar pls send me updates of time and dates.

Yes and no if the govt was smart enough to give tax incentives to enable individuals empower themselves with solor energy may be, without tax incentive the average man can not purchase it cos it is no doubt very expensive, and those who would have bought it already have the best of the best when it comes to generating sets.
