CSTRR:
The question is not even the motorcade which is already too much.
I am not even concerned about that.

The real issue is that civilians were asked to stand still until lord Buhari has passed.

That does not happen in any civilised democratic realm.

He not will ask everybody to stand. Ordinary the security and arrangements of the presidents convoy is not in his own hands. The handlers of his security do what they deem fit and necessary at all times because that is part of their own responsibility to the nation Nigeria.


Yes, It could be very inconveniencing sometimes. But then, how often does he move around he even move around.?

CSTRR:
No it does not happen in any sane country.

The Dutch president goes to work on bicycle.
Other European presidents do similar.

Buhari does not have half their IQ, influence or impact.
So what makes him better than them?

The only democratic president of a top Western nation that travels with pomp and pageantry is the president of the United State, the most powerful president in the world.

Even then, civilians don't stand still for him to pass.
Stop pulling nonsense from your hat.

Yes it does.

Every president once in a while will want to show his/her humble and down to earth. That the Dutch president decided to ride a bike does not mean he doesn't ride in motorcade/convoy.

Fortunately or unfortunately it is what comes with the paraphernalia of the office he occupies other than how many Nobel prize he has won. If it were to be the latter, the likes of Achebe, Soyinka and co would have been the ones carrying the longest motorcade in. However, life isn't design that way.

Every human being is special in his or her own way. Special is relative and dependent on who is viewing, who is being viewed and through which lens. No other person is the President Federal Republic of Nigeria than at the moment except President Mohammad Buhari. That alone in itself is special.

The dollar wey I see them pick dey like 3 abi 4 the rest na few N1,000 plenty N500 and N200 notes. In the end, if they arrange am finish e no plenty as e be there again. In the end the whole aim is to cash cruise and mislead other people. Especially young girls.

LauraClasikVibe:
So, he should sell it and invest it REITs

Not exactly, we are just analysing what is in it. At the end the decision is his to make. So it is the due diligence before his decision.

Investment is made for returns. If the structure (the house) can no longer take care of itself from it's rent then it is either saying the land requires a new structure, a major renovation or selling and investIng it in other areas with likely of more returns. In all these, he will have to know that once the decision is made and action taken, there is no room for regret.

LauraClasikVibe:
1.2m rental income can generate more than 2m if invested in Money Mutual funds
Fixed Income fund

Is this before or now... Let's assume any of the listed fund can generate 20% that'll be about 240k or 0.240M. If that is added to the 1.2M it will still not bring up to 1.5 M...

PlayMaker14:
Which stupid office? This nonsense cannot happen in neighbouring countries like Ghana or Benin Republic but just because the tyrant is in a BEAST mode, he choose to display his tyrannic skills on innocent road users.

No dey lie unnecessary.. it happens in every country. Whether you like it or not. The most exalted office in Nigeria is office of the president and so it is for every country. Even if you do not like or respect the person in the office, courtesy demands that the office be respected...

chigo4u:
Is this united capital website https://investnow.ng do they have offices or how do you open account with them

Yes that is United Capital website. You can mail through the customer care e-mail address on that website of your intentions of opening account with them or you can download their Mobile App (Investnow), register and open account through there. The former is easier sha.

BinamRex:
I also ran. I wonder how they picked the candidates when an aptitude test wasn't done. I won't waste my time this time around.

You didn't see where he said that it's a process and that there are different stages...? If you are to tell yourself the truth, check your church mind..did you make the timing for the run?

C505:
Please house I'm looking into the possibility of opening a pharmacy store for my wife who fields in this area. Currently, I'm still doing a feasibility study on the best area to set up.
But Is there any other thing i should be looking out for like local govt papers, dos and don'ts?

Kindly assist me with any information that can enrich my plans.

Since you said she fields in that area the requirements below would not be tedious for her. You can go through it.

elisbabs499:
Please tell me more about the Agrotech. Are you into crop production? And if yes, what are some of the best bet in that sector?

Do not try anything agrotech if you are really serious with wanting to. Stories from there don't always end well. Except you want to do the farming yourself. Many of those people do not invest monies collected from investment on agreed and approved investments.

Fantazy:
Advice Me Please

I want to learn to drive, as in, professional, responsible driving, which I will love to get a driving job after.

I am thinking of going to a Driving school
Or
Look for someone who has, or in possession of a car and Learn from (probably spending less money)

Please which do you advice I do?

Please kindly state the advantages and disadvantages of both
Thanks sirs/mas
May God/Allah bless you

I would have said both. However since you are considering cost, go with the Driving School. Be sure the school is FRSC & VIO certified so that you can easily get a driver's license through them. Since you intend to make it a profession, driver's licence is very necessary.

Facts111:
Good day everyone..

I'll be 24 next month. The problem now is that am too shy. I don't have confidence. I don't have any girlfriend (am too shy to speak to a lady). You can wrongly accuse me and i will went away crying.

I am the first born of a family of six. A man once accused me of sleeping with his wife (the woman in question senior my mama) and i was like "me ? Me ? Me ? " and I went inside crying.

The only friend i have is my phone. The thing is affecting me seriously. I can't eat in public. I can't insult. I can't even look at your face to talk anything.... I talk alot inside... Am an online keyboard wariorr..

One boy was telling me yesterday to join 'cult' to improve. Though am thinking of it. People take me for a fool. Nairaland is my best website.

Please doctors in the house, is there any drug or medication that i can take to make me overcome shyness ?...

First off, do not go and join any cult. It will ruin your life.

You are too afraid to fail. You also think too much about what people will say if you don't succeed...that's your major problem.

Decide in your mind to face your fears, then start facing it head long. Begin to try all those things your mind tells you that you can't achieve and in no time you will improve.

Talk more to people. If you are afraid or shy of people older than you, you can begin with the younger ones.. your siblings friends. Try to make friends etc.

Hmmmm. This kind of posts will eventually be used against Nairaland. No matter what you do, remember that you have a social and legal obligation to clean your platform of this kind of hate speech. This 'new' nairaland has turned to a breeding ground for youths who hide behind the anonymity you created here to spread hate. It's your job to stop them before government suspends Nairaland. This is not freedom of expression, it is not exercising freedom of expression when you make hate speech and then hide your identity to temporarily avoid being held to account for the consequences of spreading hate. This issue of Nairaland being used to spread hate and bigotry will be presented as a serious case of urgent public importance.

There is nothing anonymous about anything. All poster/commenters are responsible for their posts/comments. Do not incite the government against the platform Instead talk sense to that poster if you wish.


Yes they are few hate filled people around spreading hate on every thread. That is not enough when compared with the benefits it offers Nigerians.

MadamVanessa:





What is so wrong with someone having sex with inmate? When the person wasn't forced into the act, it was clearly based on agreement.

So because someone is in prison, he shouldn't have his life again.

It is called prison for a reason. Whatever it is that took the person has restricted some right and privileges he had when free.

On the part of the prison warden, it is very unethical. That singular act could make her loose her mind and endanger the lives of her colleagues. The sentiment and emotional attachment she had with the prisoner has already made her to start breaking the rules..given razor and cell phones to him. He could easily communicate with the outside world and plan with people to attack that prison. Of course he already has an accomplice who is an officer so it will be very easy.

Not everything that should be trivialised on the alter of sex.

If na you get this double salary, wetin you go do?

UNIVERSITY OF MAIDUGURI (Office of the Bursar)
5th July, 2021

NOTICE TO ALL STAFF
DOUBLE PAYMENTS OF JUNE, 2021 SALARY

I am in receipt of a mail from the Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation on the above subject matter which occurred due to system error.

In view of the above you are therefore requested not to withdraw the excess money from your account as full recovery will be made from the July, 2021 Salary if the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System OPP'S) office is unable to recall the double payments.

Thank you.
BURSAR Signed

Nothing much. I will just leave there as explained in the memo. I have seen practical cases of it around me. In most of those cases, it is left for them as their next month's salary. So spending it will mean spending a salary that you are yet to work. You will eventually work for it.

ojesymsym:
I understood that part but I did not get your complains initially.
Okay, maybe your expectations were wrong in the first place. From what I understand about your complains, these are my contributions. First off, bonds do not give returns monthly, only HYIP promise that, most of them pay biannual while FG bonds I believe pay quarterly.

When you say it was not allotted to you, I'd like to know how you arrived at these, because I know it takes a while for them to do their in house cleaning up before they communicate the details to you, that is if they even do.

As long as you filled the form and did not just transfer the money to their account just like that, I'd like to believe you are fine. June 2021 is just 7 days ago I believe.

You still don't get me. First off, I haven't said anything about the returns. However, the payment for FGN Savings Bond return/coupon should be quarterly. This particular Bond " FGN Savings Bond" is offered/issued by the DMO monthly except for special events.

When I said I have not been allotted, I meant that at least by now I should have gotten the allotment notice. Shortly after the settlement day, the allotment notic should get to all subscribers na..They are supposed to be done with June before the commencement of July.

For your third and final point, you are not always fine just because you filled form and transferred money to them ooo. Sometimes things could go wrong if you don't keep tabs on them. Even the last SUKUK I did; filled the form, payed and was issued allotment had issues when I was to get my Rental Pay. It was when my broker got tire of my disturbance and transferred me to those incharge at the CSCS that I figure out they made a mistake while entering my account number into their system for the Rental Pay.

QuinModah:
Who is your broker?

Morgan Capital. I don't think the issue is with them anyway because I have contacted them twice and told that they haven't it has not been done by the government office responsible.

ojesymsym:
I do not understand this at all

You posted "FGN Savings Bond for the Month of July" as another opportunity. I was trying to explain why I will not consider it that opportunity for now. I tried in the for the first time in the month of June and till now it has not been allotted to me.

ojesymsym:
Another opportunity exist here.

It is meant to be a monthly thing and I would have really enjoyed with a dedicated amount. But then, the First time I tried it was June 2021. The money left my account immediately before settlement but as I am typing this, I have not gotten the allotment. I have contacted my broker severally on it but was told it hasn't been allotted. I don't know where my money is and the terms/condition of the Investment. That is why I am not going to try this one now.

Saybal:
I register for United capital mmf for two weeks now but no response from them.do you have the customer care number

+234 816 828 2396 you can contact this number through WhatsApp. You will be told what. Though in case like this they may still ask you to mail their customer care.

emmanuelewumi:
Who will you make the request to? They don't reply mails, messages or calls

I think a visit to their office is what will eventually fix it if you can create the time to go there. They will assign you an account officer immediately. Though it should not be that way at all. With United Capital even a WhatsApp Message will fix some issues or direct you on how to get solutions.

emmanuelewumi:
I am actually planning to close my money market fund account with FBN Quest Asset Management, their customer service is zero they won't reply mails, you don't have personal phone numbers of the account officers except the office land line

That's how their customer services are really. But like XiaoLi said, you can request for another account officer. I am sure any assigned to you will be happy to work with you.

emmanuelewumi:
Most fund managers have just one ID number for their client

Yes for United Capital have just one ID number for their clients. All funds are linked to that number the only thing that changes is maybe the code of the the Fund written before the number. It seem so with FBN Quest too. Though I have asked United Capital about the possibility of having 2 accounts for same fund. FBN Quest has told me straight before that they don't.

However with Stanbic IBTC, they open their funds account like normal bank accounts so you can open more than one.

emmanuelewumi:
How will you differentiate the funds when you want to invest

You will use the account numbers to differentiate them. Since you are the one that knows your reason for opening them, you will be the one to know which account number is for which purpose....

emmanuelewumi:
Thank you mail replied was replied by Mayowa last night.


Is it possible for a client to have 2 money market fund accounts with the same fund manager.

My wife has one as her emergency reserve, she is thinking of having another one for the saving of the start up capital for a business

Very possible for Stanbic IBTC Money Market Funds. Your reason for opening the accounts for savings/investments may be different. So they allow it.

czarmide:
Hello guys afternoon,pls I sold some stocks on Morgan capital intrade. How will I withdraw some amount from the sales proceeds

Just send a mail to their customer care requesting for the amount you wish to withdraw. Hope your KYC is updated ooo. If not, you will have to update it before the withdrawal is possible.

CharisEleos:
Nigerians will react to everything. Ordinary pics got them talking.. hm

I don't see anything wrong here. They are not posed like lovers or in a any suspicious manner to spark such reactions. Realtors of Nigeria association. Una try.

Genny gurl. Always classy.
I don't mind this your free top though.

The reaction is not to them taking pictures or standing close. It is how young Genevieve still look instead of getting older...

otomatic:
The bank is not meant to rollover TBills except Customer requests it.

Below my Tbill certificate is a note :

"Please note that upon maturity, the Face value will be credited to your account. For reinvestment, kindly contact the bank at least 72 hours before the stated maturity date."

It depends ooo. For primary market some bank just roll over unless you give a contrary instruction. In some of the banks TB there is column where to indicate either to roll over at expiration or not. I have once asked them not to roll over yet they did. Na First Bank dey do that roll over pass...

just2endowed:
This is capital market

I didn't get this. I was talking Cashcraft Asset Management Limited ( Personal Earnings Annuity Scheme - PEAS) sha . I know they have Cashcraft Securities.

emmasoft:
What oga Emma just posted is a summary of background check you need to do on any fund you wish to invest in before you even check the rate. Any fund no matter who manages it or floats it even a SEC approved firm if it doesn't have all the listed criteria it's still not safe. If you invest in it and anything goes wrong you are own your own. This is from experience.
All mutual fund investors take note.

Yes, very true. Example is Cashcraft and it's PEAS investment. Investors in that scheme have been trying to get their monies back without success. Some of them have even opened thread on how to get back their funds invested in PEAS yet Cashcraft is an approved firm.

Tobex4realTobex234:
For those that want to invest in USD but do not have the appetite or time to follow NYSE, I just saw this ad on Nairametrics. If possible, try to negotiate the rate.

Not bad but still lower than what all these Dollar Funds are offering....
