we keep clamouring for foreign investments but on a daily basis,the sanusi led
cbn keeps churning out policy frameworks that will keep investors at bay.
policy instability is not good for investment.
what ever happened to the place of experience in board appointment.
is this banking sector not being simply over regulated by this spate of policy redesign on predictable basis?

sometimes sentiment gets the better parts of our thinking, I guess Sanusi crept into the CBN disguised as Soludo on the 31 of march 2006 just to insert this code of practise

hackney:
^^^^ well said.

A policy whereby experience counts against an individual is very flawed.
it's fair to regulate a director's monopoly over bank issues but having experience count against them is not a good idea.

they can use their experience somewhere else including another bank, I think people with 12years experience should even be turfed out of the banking industry altogether, they should use their 'experience' if its worth anything to start their own business employ numerous graduates on the street lets see if they can hack it

wales:
Japan and China.

See what happens during political meetings in people's Republic of china, Peaceful, Harmonious and No Disturbance.

indeed lol in la la land

tried calling mine today the number isnt working, the other one is not there any more she is on leave since november!!

AIICO has done 32% this year
Skye Bank --36%
even PHB 32%

really impressive but seems everyone don look for somewhere else

Did you see what happened to Pillars when they won the premiership?

They had to play super cup o super4, played Portsmouth, played the FA cup or coca cola cup, then teh new season started, with them playing the CAF competition they finished 6th or thereabouts

the difference between the top 6 teams is just 6 points - 2 home wins, they have to focus on the lucrative confederation and CAF competition and i don't know how much they get for each place finish

honeric01:
how the choice of lobi and sharks? both never finished in the top 6 so why are they the ones being chosen?



EPL or NPL?

the top clubs probably got their hands full are are still chasing targets

rasputinn:
Learnt Chief Oyiuki Obaseki's board has been dissolved and he's no longer gonna be probed.This is commendable as the Bini chief has really done so much for Nigerrian footy,at least in the last two years,teams have been going to play away and getting victories there,the Nigerian league is now on the world stage,two team from the EPL made it to the last four of the CAF CL with one getting to the finals

It's not yet uhuru,but he's done a lot and our football administrators should stop playing PHD politics with our football

commendable because the board has been dissolved or because he's no longer going to be probed?

efrebody for NL know say you be banker

I'm talking CEOs, University Profs and co, since the beginning of the Sanusi era they've been very quiet

Finance experts have affirmed that the embargo on universal banking is not likely to have adverse effects on Nigeria’s banking climate, if the requirements for such transitions are met appropriately.

Gamaliel Onosode, Chairman, Zain, and a leading boardroom player in Nigeria’s corporate environment, said the policy is a welcome one, as he did not think it was a good idea introducing universal banking into Nigeria.

“I can only say that I am delighted. After trying it for the years that they have, the Central Bank has now come to the same conclusion that I had at that time, just as when consolidation was introduced. I felt that room should have been created for banks that still desired to remain relatively small as quality is not equated with the size of the bank.”

Akinbamidele Akintola, finance analyst at Renaissance Capital, an investment firm said, “Right now, you have a situation where banks have insurance companies, stock broking companies, and all other sorts under them in the name of ‘universal banking.’ What they are hoping to do is make sure that banks focus on their core designation, like if a bank is a commercial bank, all it does is core banking activities.

“I do not think this should adversely affect the banking industry, but the concern is, does the Central Bank of Nigeria have the manpower, efficiency, and capacity to really execute this? That is the concern,” he said, adding that the CBN did not state if the new policy was to affect existing banks or interested parties.

Back to the basics

Mr. Onosode argued that the abolition of universal banking would effectively mean all smaller banks can now exist to run in a capacity that would be convenient for what they were specialised in.

Why aren't the bankers opposing this new proposal?
Listening to many internet warriors that think the CBN is about one man vs the other is nauseating!!

Dangote does not make the business rule, if your elected president and ministers cant give allow free and fair business environment, you should hold them responsbile

heard the water aint dep enough for this nana to sail properly what a dumb aboki!

Good Luck:
NAT Internal programs are not well edited sometimes , I cannot stand their abrupt interuption of programs. I wish they will let a program finish before cutting it off for another program. They should provide a comment section on their website for people to give feedback.

They have a website?

erico2k2:
Wise decision, anyone who sells share should never get into that position cos they would manipulate it to their favour

the former president of the NSE was also a CEO whose had interest in many companies listed, one rule for them now?

skyranger:
like donating 400m to OBJ campaign & 3b worth of cement to PDP and having them trust monopolistic rights to you so you could inflate basic prices of consumer staples?!
the AP share price manipulation, in a just enviroment would land dangote in jail for a very long time,
from the otedola, dangote adenuga et'al, we don't have any "finest biz man", they are all bunch of theives and fronts for loot of public tills which our govt have given them license to kill its own citizens.

is donating millions to a political party a crime? is donating cement to pdp a crime? for all you know he also donates money to other parties in power, When Adenuga donated money for OBJ why wasn't there any outcry?

Apart from rumours, was there any evidence it was Dangote that manipulated AP shares? when people lose out of business deals they start blaming others instead of upping their game

Maybe you should call the school(s) they should be able to provide information for international students

so where is this video

I can just see thousands of Fulanis scampering to their broadband enabled laptops to watch this video

More often than not Nairaland members have berated me for posting these articles, but to be honest these are independently verified news reports coming out of reputable news organisations such as AP.

probably because not all news is worth talking about like a rago seller, theres the real world in downtown lagos and there's the internet world

Agbaya Boyband abi na manband sef

Wont be surprised if the first politician to condemn this is a southerner from the SS or SE
those people are always disappointing their online warriors

Soludo didnt introduce Universal banking!!

whats the point calling a bank a mortgage bank when all its credit is going to oil and gas or stock market transactions?

rclbrz2211:
Who likes to be around a northerner anyway? they'r just block-headed morons. They dull your spirit, no ginger. I'm a yoruba man and even if Nigeria should divide, I'll miss the igbos cos they're fun to be with. Let me clarify this to y'all:

An average Yoruba man: dependent, dishonest, talkative, friendly, hopeful, boastful, 1st to run, IQ - high
An average Igbo man: independent, highly dishonest, sociable, entrepreneur minded, stubborn, 2nd to run, IQ - high
An average Hausa man: highly dependent, honest, quiet, reserved/introvert, warmongers, last to run, IQ - low

Sorry but truth hurts. The fact remains that there can never be no genuine peace without war. Else everybody should let go and let God, and I mean everybody, not some

Folashade bent, maryam babangida, titi atiku, and several first ladies in the north

True, those blocked have been pushing you about like cattles since 1960 and with all your phd from toronto and your international gragradigba, the high IQers are still a slave to their system

[quote author=ndu_chucks link=topic=414128.msg5703743#msg5703743 date=1268747317]This is a dumb idea. What happens to Lagos, Ogun, and Oyo states that have 50% - 60% Muslim polulation - how do you split them along religious lines?[/quote]they will stay as they are

[quote author=OYB_MEND link=topic=414128.msg5703705#msg5703705 date=1268747025]believe it or not the man is making sence. Hillary Clinton has also hinted at such ideas

we have refused to be one and yet refused to divide. the only way nigeria survives is if it is a secular state where no religion is recognised

muslims said no they must practice sharia against the will of the rest of the country and its constitution.
christains said no they wont accept sharia rule.
those who want to continue sharia are trying to conquer jos, hence the massacre.

now if this is the status quo what is the point of remaining one nation. we nigerians like to live in denial untill we are consumed.

we have to repeal sharia law in states where they are being practiced, enforce the necessary sections of our constitution if we want to stay together or better still we simply follow the advice Gaddaffi and simply divide.[/quote]Just wondering, do you by any chance know how the Senate or national assembly reacted back then to some state adopting Sharia, i read somewhere that it went to the supreme court or a up north court and it was allowed in the constitution??

sleek417:
yeah it will end online cos the Hausa Fulani race would not even be silly to come fighting in Lagos

perhaps they were just going about their business as usual, not knowing some over-educated illiterates are strategizing on a rumuor started by one agbo seller

WMD saddam can strike in 15mins 

snowdrops:
He only said what [the last time i checked] 70% of nairalanders are clamouring for. So why crucify him.
I am impressed by his courage in making such pronouncement. [b]Other foreign leaders have to a large extent being non-chalant or adopting the politically correct stand.[/b]Terrorist country or not, eccentric character he may be, you have to applaud him for the positive transformations he has made in Libya.

that could be because the people of Nigeria are not actually agitating for it well apart from some of those online
and the leaders- state governors, Representatives etc are not clamouring for it ?

Foreign leaders are supporting Sudan seeing as the people are actually taking up arms and discussing it

ReachRich:
This is one of the problems we have in 9ja.Our old politicians will not give way for the youger and more vibrant incoming politicians.Imagine a situation where IBB of 73yrs old wants to contest for president after ruling for 8yrs as a miilitary Head of State.What does he want to do that he didnt do b4?

Sometimes you dont wait for people to give you a chance You take it!!

If the young 'vibrant politicians' cant shake off an oldie maybe they are not as vibrant as you think!

any winners?

_{or perhaps its too good to be true?}

Kadejo:
Why ar U pple talking like dis? take things as if you ar the one. From North to dis side here, how much is the market they ar bringing over here dat dey would have to pay huge amount e.g. N50,000, N70,000 e.t.c on the road, before dey get to where d goods are to be delivered. Why cant u ask the Govt. what surt of silly pple do dey set on d way to start collecting money from dem? I know some one would say Tax, Is dat same taxs dat POLICE COLLECTS, FRSC, CUSTOMS, and so called tax officers collect. I want u to belive dat it affects everybody including dem (The Northerners) becos dey cant have any money to spend.
What I would like to say is dat, Order should be made for all dos dubious pple dat collects money on the road to move away or else, any truck stoped unnecessaryly should keep going and if care is not taking, those silly pple may be injured.

I personally think they should continue for another week or perhaps start again in March, until the state government do something. That way, traders irrespective of their products/origin will feel more comfortable doing business

With all the praise fashola is getting I wonder why he has not been questioned about the role of agberos in tax collection!! He has never spoken out against them or the police who openly collect money from traders!

asha 80:
Irrigation?

Yup, so many rivers across the country and teh water levels is favourable in many places

Nigerians are not just patient enough, soooo much money can be made from agriculture but they want now now, most of the challenges have solutions but its not been made attractive enough. everyone wants a white collar, immediate profit job

You will notice the nig time agro-industrialist are old and experienced business men not young ones who have only one thing in their mind

shilling:
Ok, thanks for clearing that up. Older players aside, is it possible for the younger ones to tear their achilles tendon just by trying to kick a ball?

yes, its not the kicking its the whole running about most atheletes experience this at some point some might get be lucky though

sesman:
what's this doing on the front page, i couldn't give a monkeys, they are more important issues to put on the front page than the David Beckham injury,
and there was me thinking i will be able to get away from his bloody injury on nairaland, since all the bleeding major newspapers in the uk have made this their back page sport headlines,

Exactly!! like the missing $200m at the glass house, Kanu's Real age, or why the NFA dont have a website after signing the contract!!

wondern:
What we need govt for on Agric is to facilitate Agric inputs. People are willing to go into mechanised farming but govt eye-service is killing people's morale.

wrong! people's impatience with return on agriculture is what is putting people off, Nigerians are used to quick money, who wants to wait for the raining season or that season when the people of ogun state what to throw party every other weekend
I think ogun state or ekiti should be sacrificed as the farmland of the SW that way the whole region gets enough food and export the rest  

where is he now?

ITHANKGOD:
@Janykute its unfortunate things do not work like that in the uk, the police will tell u it is a civil matter and does not involve the police unless u go there to create trouble and someone else calls the police in which case u may get arrested for disturbing the peace and may even get into further trouble. But if u have to follow the proper process it is mad u may end up losing more money and not getting your money back. the best thing will be for this guy to provide this guy's details as he has done to prevent others from falling prey of this man. SO SPREAD HIM AROUND. HIS ADDREES AND BUSINESS NAME WILL HELP.

Big Lie!!! you have a receipt and he is not denying it why would they ignore you?

whats your address mate, we were there yesterday supplying one madam okereke cow!!

^^ ONOVO invited them for training, you know the IGPis part of the northern conspiracy against the southerners
