BusinessRe: A School, Resort, An Estate Or Integrated Farm - Can Anyone Pls Help? by fatherab1: 4:02pm On Feb 08, 2008
I will advise you to try your best combine 2 or 3 of your options into that pice of land. You can never predict those businesses at all. Abuja and its environs are quite dynamic. Please dont focus on only one option because 2 are better than 1 and a connection of 3 can not be easily broken.
Dating And Meet-up ZoneRe: In Search For Aisha2 by fatherab1: 1:34pm On Feb 08, 2008
To be candid, this hajia or alhaja called Aisha2 usually posts intelligent posts though she can easily attack some1.

But when will nairababes start threads that they are seeking for nairaguys? Must it be the other way round?
"in search for Aisha2", "For babycool only'', ''I need Almondjoy", ''where is Efua'' etc etc and all those junks
Dating And Meet-up ZoneRe: For Babycool Only by fatherab1: 2:01pm On Feb 07, 2008
I get surprised that Efua one of the most brilliant girls on nairaland will be stopping a sincere guy from expressing his love. I hardly discourage pple like that german guy because I know a SERIOUS PROPOSAL when I see one whether its made on the street, in church or on nairaland. Babycool, give it a deep thought b4 u decide.

I dont want 2 be close 2 babycool but EFUAH the ghanian.
Pls if u r there, respond,

I RESPECT UR BRAIN NOT JUST UR FACE
BusinessRe: Business Strategy To Survive In Nigeria. by fatherab1: 12:58pm On Feb 07, 2008
@Oziomatv,
10Q 4 ur appreciation.
Concerning ur area of business, I think if u want 2 kickstart in Nigeria, try to locate it/them where the market is. If u begin a wine/disco bar in a state where alcohol is an offence or u open a hotel where there are no tourism prospects, then ur investment is truancated. Actually, one doesnt need 2 do what every other person is doing if you really want 2 make a difference. So you need not get worried or afraid of how things are run here. Maybe when u make ur intentions known like where u want 2 site it, how big u want 2 start, etc then i can give a more relevant advice.

@mufasaus,
Why involve family and loved ones in business? There are negligible exceptional cases where friends and families can be trusted and entrusted with business, but usually, getting a reliable team of retailers who u directly oversee or indirectly oversee THROUGH a reliable major distributor will yield results.

BusinessRe: Business Strategy To Survive In Nigeria. by fatherab1: 2:44pm On Feb 06, 2008
My dear, I have been in the Nigerian business for more than 20years. The business strategies to survive and thrive in nigeria include: * Make sure you diversify by all means. In this country, DIVERSIFICATION is the name of the game. Dont streamline ur investment, while u specialize in your own field IT(?), try to get other TRUSTED specialists in their own areas to network with. Have u noticed why big names like Dangote, Adenuga, Jim Ovia, Pascal Dozie, Otedola, Obasanjo(yes) etc have divers areas of interests? You either diversify or you crucify ur hard-earned inverstment.
*Beside that, the ability to manage people is a vital management skill in business the world over, but in the nigerian business terrain, that is the GREATEST management skill! You dont go far beyond your doorpost if you lack it. People management also include the ability to identify, recruit and KEEP reliable workforce.

CareerRe: Nigerian Engineers Are Not Competent? by fatherab1: 1:34pm On Feb 06, 2008
I dont think it is correct to say we nigerian Engineers do not design and that instead we do the work of technicians, If we dont do the designs, who else does? Frankly speaking, the engineering sector is onlu successful by the help of all: Consulting Engineers("designers"wink, site Engineers, Technicians, etc. I worked in all these capacities and I think none is more dignifying or down-grading than the other it all depends on WHERE u work.

PoliticsRe: Obama Wins South Carolina - What Does This Tell Us About Obama's Strenght by fatherab1: 10:45am On Feb 06, 2008
Posters on this thread who call others idiots simply because they express their own opinions have proved your low levels of intelligence. Instead of proving your own points, you attack people's personalities and call names. If you hate Obama, dont transfer it on those who like him regardless of the fact that he wins or looses.

PropertiesRe: Venture Capital [500 Million] Needed by fatherab1: 9:56am On Feb 06, 2008
For the benefit of those who seek for financial support, wisdom demands that you should be able to package your profitable idea in such a way that people who happen to possess enough financial muscles without the time can support under a clearly defined agreement. Issues a business proposal MUST address include: 1. What the core idea is in clear & understandable terms 2. What an investor stands to gain if he puts his hard earned money 3. How and when the investor can recover his investment i.e the capital he puts into it. 4. What YOU as a person have done for the business so far.This makes one to know that you believe in your idea and COMMITTED to it. 5. What your competitive advantages are. These may be in form of strategic location, the timing, expertise etc 6. The five year plan for the proposed business. This makes one know it is longterm not hit and run type. 7. , etc

You can upload your business proposals on nairaland as attachments for potential financiers to see, however, your TRADE SECRETS must be hidden in your mind or else another fast guy will steal your ideas and you end up shooting yourself in the foot, wink

aisha2:
Do you have any idea what you are saying? I am from Plateau State and I can tell you first hand information that Solomon Lar and Intergrity, those are two words that don't mix, like water and Palm oil.
Dear aisha, you are not the only one from plateau, I am not from there but have resided there and I know that when you rate Solomon Lar on the integrity scale which today's politicians fall short of, u will realize that he relatively has some measure of integrity. Any way sha, I am not defending anyone,
PoliticsRe: Hillary Clinton Desperate by fatherab1: 2:05pm On Jan 31, 2008
Hillary becoming the president gives Bill yet another 'tenure' to be the President of the US. That is why they are so desperate. Super Tuesday will tell where their desperacy will land them.

PoliticsRe: We Totally Regret Not Supporting Ekwueme In 1999-solomon Lar by fatherab1: 1:17pm On Jan 31, 2008
From antecedents, Solomon Lar and Alex Ekweme had track records of integrity, as Plateau governor and Vee Pee respectively. In all respect, such people should NEVER be likened 2 General obasanjo in Nairaland or Naijaland!

Is it because it's just N5million? Must it be N100million be4 it sounds credible? Some pple already have 419 mentality, no wonder they r easily robbed of hard-earned coins. To out-do 419-ners, u MUST consult the relevant quarters b4 purchasing, also make sure u verify every document tendered, these r few of the secrets of buying. Details r in my new book : 'THE IRRESISTIBLE SELLER'.

CONCERNING THE ROLE OF LAWYERS IN LAND ACQUISITION, THEY R VERY NECESSARY BUT NOT COMPULSORY. I'V PURCHASED LANDS ON EITHER WAYS. HOWEVER, A LAWYER BRINGS LEGITIMACY & LEGALITY TO D DEAL. IN FACT, DUBIOUS SELLERS BCOM A BIT UNCOMFORTABLE WITH A LAWYER'S PRESENCE, NEVER SEE LAWYERS A WASTE OF LITTLE MONEY. HAVE A FAMILY LAWYER AS U HAVE FAMILY DOCTOR AND COSTS MAY ALWAYS B SLASHED.

It depends on the architectural drawing which also depends on what you the client require. The smaller the cheaper, right? Wrong! The features matter the most, designs, columns, type of materials used, type and style of roofing, etc. If u r specific, u get specific estimations, Am building one in kogi.
