Show us it works with OANDO first bros.

I am very sure he does come here once in a while to read comments!

He is a smooth operator from the era of Ade Bendel!!

The next one will be from Geregu Bank.

Streetinvestor2:
Good u no talk access for the matter

He has already included it in the listed stocks.

#FTNCOCOA
Despite over 400% increase in Revenue due to global price of Cocoa, somehow our local cost of input raw cocoa beans has eaten deep into their gross profit and cause negative gross margin!
Damn!!

They need to either start exporting raw cocoa or increase the quantity of byproduct of cocoa export at an exponential level to beat this cost-margin.

FTNCOCOA is a sitting Gold mine. They somehow need Agriculture expertise to unlock this challenge.

There is big sign of poor or corrupt management.

Bonjovi13:
I have UBA
What's the issue with FirstHoldco?
I think people should wait till March after the recap is done

Poor and corrupt management.

Last 5 years dividend history is too poor.

Bonjovi13:
I be newbie. I buy Aradel, Seplat, FirstHoldco, access, zenith like 5M.
I hope say I do well?

The money wey u take buy FirstHoldco you suppose use am buy UBA or WEMA Bank.

Everything about First Bank is just not right,it is a matter of time,it will end like defunct Skye Bank .

Their banking network is very slow .

Raider76:
Please anything on FIRSTHOLDCO? Some people must have seen the results going by the sharp loss today after a gain yesterday.

It made about ₦1 as Earning Per Share!

I no tell una say na cash out O come for.

O is supposed to be a Nigerian politician (na pen robbers dem be).

Ginalex:
no give EDUECO heart attack abeg

ACCESSCORP no bi Ellah lekos or Zirchis o!

talk2me2:
I don't really understand is the matter peculiar to me or is it a general matter? Since this year I have not been receiving Xalert on transactions.

The committee in charge is probably embezzling the funds for X-alert messages.

Nothing dey shock me for Nigeria again!

Trump is about to be scammed half a billion US Dollars.

The seccession is not possible .

amaridigital:
Oya obedients food is ready because it's close to election time again.
Please release the chaking, chaking videos, Ai manipulative pampers and body piss, falling while walking etc.
If your brain is 10% active and Tinubu is actually doing this close to election time again, you should know that the president is play action to fool people like you for some reasons best known to him. Why isn't he doing that for the past three years upon traveling out more than 100 times?
You are too dumb to fall for his game. He controls the game and the narrative.

This is also very likely.

adecz:
When you sniff something, you may
loose coordination and sense of direction.. 😉😉😉

You're right!

Probably overdose of sniffed substance.

No

yMcy56:
The stock NCR moved from loss to profit in the FYE and made good revenue...
That's something
Also considering the OS which is just 108M, with the substantial shareholder's holding over 73% of it, I don't really see them releasing it just like that.....
The news of bonus issue may make it a toast the more...
That's how I viewed it.....
The fact remains that the stock stood out irrespective...... hopefully, Artleos will restructured it the more...😊

Your love for kalokalo stocks is unimaginable!

Agbalowomeri:
See money
AwesomeBillions

And hope he is ready to pay tax to Tinubu? :

zendi:
And how would you know that at the airport?

So you end up avoiding aircrafts altogether and miss all your appointments and opportunities.

I will check safety/maintenance history of the aircraft and the management.

I will check how they take care of their field workers(like the maintenance engineers and flight crew ).

I will also check if the pilot is psychologically alright.

Just because I must fly,I wouldn't fly aircraft like royalex and Ellah lekos.

zendi:
Nevertheless thousands board aircrafts every day out of necessity.

Because the grasscutter that would not venture out of its hole for fear of the hunter will die of starvation.

Take note of 'the aircraft that is about to crash'.I am never against hunting for treasures.

zendi:
Thanks, GeeKudi, but no.

This is not a moniker that needs help to cross the Ikorodu Road of NGX.

If I tell you I'm chasing a stock, the only thing I will need of you is to help dump the stock on me. It is not to advise me on keeping money safe.

I am not here to keep money safe but to multiply it.

When to chase, stop the chase, or not chase at all, belongs to the adepts.

While you're at it, remember not to board an aircraft that is about to crash!

iskalamong:
Funnily enough, among the popular and solid stocks, those two seem to be the cheapest at the moment. Oando, very cheap. Access on the other hand is worth the risk for short term dividend play at N20.

In my opinion, market is in a hold state for those that want to JIJO. That is, if you’re in, you may wait to see if you can get a better exit price. If you’re out, you may wait to see if you can get a better bargain. Most stocks are around their fair value unless we see a shocker in results released or dividends declared.

However, those two stocks seem to be the potential plays for now. Oando at c.N40 and Access at c.N20.

Mind you, I excluded illiquid, very small cap and some other stocks (that rallies without revenue or operational evidence ) in my consideration.

It would be nice to hear the opinions of the house as well.

Cheers

Iskalamong!

But, Ellah lekuleku investors are of the view that ACCESSCORP is about to go bankrupt?

I'm laughing in Chinese while money is growing like grass!

Okomu Oil,NIDF,WEMA Bank,and ACCESSCORP grew one of my portfolios when I did some buying and selling about a week ago.

Streetinvestor2:
Kpakus did not see the Money it is very clear.
If they saw it.They would have done usual paparazzi with brokers over it.
It is just like the oil mill.I believe it is not yet working too.They for done show branded kpakus oil to the public during the fund raising to lift people moral to participate. It is simply street sense
Not like I expected them to be able to raise such fund in the first place.How many of you here participated.Chams still dey send us massage thanking us for believing in the management

Investors in Ellah lekos believe it is the best thing after Okomu Oil and Presco!

I will only take Lekos serious when it has paid dividends consistently for 10 years.

SonofElElyonRet:
Just in case Ellah didn't raise the whole N235b at PO, I'm sure Chuka would've embarked on an aggressive private placement/loan sourcing exercise, immediately the signs of under-subscription were evident, to make up the shortfall. Hewitt Benson has everything under control.. e lo fokan bale. That acquisition is a done deal. Expect price rally for Ellah when the successful acquisition is announced.. projecting a price stabilisation at N25 / N30

I hope you're not a Marlian?

ultraviolet27:
But not the government fault alone every Nigerians from the poor, unlettered,to the privileged and the wealthy are corrupt, greedy and self-centered because even when they (the government)release the trifle or meager fund for upgrading the laboratories or building new ones to the latest standard the university administrators(VC,Bursar and the register) and the leaders will embezzle it

I graduated from UI also and I knew many times funds were looted by the VC and the university even right from my 100 level days!!yet we face and curse our political leaders whereas all of us are worst and if the government decides to prosecute the offenders with efcc and icpc we,cry of witch-hunting and even defend the looters and say are the government officials also not looting? forgetting then when the foundation is weak a building won't stand

corruption needs to be tackled from the grassroots, as the youths that we see as the leaders of tomorrow are even worse come and see how the SU(student union executives) embezzle the institutions funds with reckless abandon which even trickles down to the departmental, faculty and hall of residences executives(governments) when I was in my final year my faculty president who was a female embezzled the faculty funds and grants and was even threatening that she couldn't be prosecuted is it someone like her that will get to the position of authority that won't embezzle billions of naira?if you can't be trusted with a little sum of money is it when you are faced with a larger sum you won't steal?

why those abroad universities are maintained and has up to date infrastructures are because they aren't fully government owned (joint ownership)infact they are almost privately owned that's why their tuition fees are costlier you know it's hard to embezzle from a private owned enterprise?that's why most private universities have good infrastructures in nigeria only they love exploiting their staffs!!

You have rightly stated the obvious corrupt acts taking place at various level of the Nigerian society .

Humans are the same all over the world and as such it is the judicial arm of government that correct or chastise those who break the law.So, corruption can only be fought by the government.And a corrupt government can't bring to book those embezzling funds for the building science laboratories in Nigerian schools.

DoTheNeedful:
Like I stated in my previous post, I am not saying all is well with our universities. However, I think it is exaggerated, especially for federal universities.

As someone with background in sciences, I agree with you about the dearth of good laboratories in our schools. That said, Nigerian graduates can still compete decently in many foreign universities.

I wasted a few years of my life in Nigeria because of comments like yours. Comments like yours do more to kill confidence in Nigerian graduates than trigger the government to spend more on education. When I got into a Ph.D. program in the US, I realized that I was not an outlier. I saw many graduates of Nigerian universities doing well and winning awards at top universities. I, and some Nigerians I know, have published at the top tier venues in our fields.

I am not a medical doctor, but I have seen many graduates of UCH, LUTH, ABUTH, UNNTH and OAUTH practicing at various big hospitals here. There are many stories in the news about Nigerian doctors leaving the country to various advanced countries of the world. Those stories are very true.

Nigerians are too negative. Please don't misunderstand me, I am not saying that all is well. All I am saying is that things are not as terrible as some of you make them.

As for your comparison of China to the US in the area of science, I disagree. The US is still above China. In fact, I still rate Japan ahead of China in science and technology. There are ideas in scientific research community that are termed groundbreaking. Most of such are still coming from the US, Japan, Germany, Canada and so on. China is good at making incremental and cosmetic improvements to groundbreaking ideas coming from the US and other countries. They also spend too much cyberattack effort stealing confidential ideas from the US and other advanced countries.

If Nigeria's science education is not as bad as you wrote,then why do folks like
yourself run away to places like the USA or the UK? Nigeria's science education is very poor;you can't practise science(whether Medicine, Dentistry,Engineering,Physics,et cetera) in an environment with poor laboratories and inadequate equipments.

China is the greatest country in modern scientific innovations and China's industries have the highest level of efficiency.From primary to tertiary education level, China's science laboratories are up to date;and this has resulted to 'Made in China' goods which is found in every countries of the world.

The son is sexually irresponsible!

egwue:
I have some fund available to me on short term basis. My investment goal is dividend and capital preservation. Just wondering if buying Access Bank at the current price is a good idea. Any advice from this forum will be highly appreciated.

Access Bank is good bank and you will never regret buying it.

Never you listen to those investors in royalex,Ellah lekuleku,and those mush room companies.

chatinent:
Religious azaman.

First people with church format.

Tithes, first fruits, second fruits, sow seeds, offering, harvest, bazaar, support the ministry, givers never lack, end of the month cheerful giving, new month blessing offering, I will see my child offering, I must be pregnant offering, My future partner will locate me offering, cleanse spiritual husband and wife offering 🫣, blind my enemies offering, deliverance offering, house cleansing offering, My uncles will not see me offering, may my enemies not see me offering, God will bless you offering, America here I come offering, holy communion offering, cross over offering, night vigil offering, crusade offering.

Format choke.

They filtered every Bible verse that has to do with giving and it became strategic topics. In the mind of the deceived, naira and dollar is used in heaven.

If the whites knew where God was and if heaven was solace, they'd never have introduced it to the blacks.

It was a colonial manipulator...and it's still working.

This guy na very good bad guy.

As you don sabi all their cashing out formats,na wetin you come they wait for ?

Just go open your church business.

nairalanda1:
That's the problem. Corruption is making a bad situation worse.

Poor funding is due to our reliance on one resource. Which is kind of why most subsaharan African countries are poor. We rely on oil.and since we don't control the sale price of that oil , it creates funding issues

Like now , a large proprtion of this year's budget is being funded by borrowing because oil prices haven't been high enough

Corruption results from our sharing money economics. So long as the oil money flows , who cares about actual industrial development and a actually prospering economy?

If the Nigerian government can genuinely fund science and technology education right from the primary or elementary school to the higher education level, Nigeria will become a developed country in 20 years time.

China is a good example of a country that has genuinely funded science and technical education;and this has made Chinese industries the most efficient in the world in 2026.

DoTheNeedful:
Some Nigerians enjoy trashing Nigerian universities.

Having studied in Nigerian federal universities and earning a doctorate in the US, I can say that Nigerian universities are not as terrible as some people make them out to be. I am not claiming that everything is perfect but Nigerians are often too hard on the country’s university system.

You would be surprised at the accomplishments of recent graduates from Nigerian universities in top American universities and research institutions. During my graduate studies, I never felt like an outlier in classes filled with students from the US, China, Iran, India, Europe, and elsewhere.

Science without adequate experimentation is equivalent to falsehood!

Can you boldly say science laboratories(including the Anatomy cadaver laboratory for basic medical students) in the University of Ibadan is modern and properly managed?

Can you boldly say the University College Hospital(UCH)in Ibadan has good laboratories (including the mortuary)and hospital facilities?

What if I tell you that the great China has overtaken the USA in terms of science and technology. I'm very sure you are of the opinion that the USA is greater than China in science and technology in 2026.

The level of mediocrity in pure science related courses in the Nigerian public universities is unbelievable.

nairalanda1:
Which is why I said we got to fight corruption as well,.or are you actually reading my posts?

And even if we fight corruption, as I said ,we still have the funding issue left over..hence we got to look for solutions to that

Corruption is directly or indirectly contributing to poor funding.If not for corruption,why should defence get higher funds than education in the 2026 budget of Nigeria?

nairalanda1:
1. Ending embezzlement won't do anything. It still leaves the issue of funding as the elephant in the room.
That's why we need a leadership that would fight corruption, tax more of the gdp and allow.for.things like rises in fees. Or we can just have corrupt free mediocre universities.


2. We need more funding than that. Hence the need for a.indistrial economy..not our oil dependent economy..no country is going to find money for you

Are you aware of the embezzlement of funds for laboratories in public universities?

Even when the funding is tripled,the looting will still continue.

nairalanda1:
Even if we ended embezzlement,it's not going to make universities better. Budget for education would still remain too low to turn universities into world class. I mean , advanced labs cost a lot of money. Remove embezzlement and we still have the same 4-5 billion dollars for over 100 universities, even more polytechnics and countless secondary and primary schools. Nothing would get fixed

I don't see anywhere where I denied mediocre leadership is our problem. In my post I even show you how mediocre leadership works in making Nigeria bad self.

But to make myself clear, our leaders and followers treat Nigerian economy as a national cake to be divided, not as a farm that needs to yield more fruit. We have worked on the idea that we need to sell oil and share the money equitably.

The problem is, oil prices dont favor us, so we quickly run into debt and also that kind of idea promotes corruption. That's how mediocre our leadership idea are.

Focus on indistrial development and on taxing the gdp more and on not starving vital things like the power sector in the name of poverty and things will improve.

Ending embezzlement will make pure science related courses in Nigerian public universities better; because the budgeted funds for the laboratories will improve the quality and modernize the laboratories.

The innovations from these laboratories will attract more funding from industries. In the USA,innovative laboratories get funding from industries;and I also believe innovative or productive laboratories will also get funding in Nigeria.
