RomanceRe: He Has Been After Her For 4 Years.......She's More Educated, Older And Richer by goodnature: 7:35am On Oct 23, 2015
dearestaramide:
My colleague came to the office complaining this mornnig of a man that she can't stand but yet he has being doing everything to get her including prayers and seeing mallams to pray (which he later denied).

He went ahead to trace where she works as well as lives and drove after her one night after close of work till she managed to escape him. She says that he isn't even educated to university level, he can't speak English well and her family is well off better than his. She has done everything possible to dissuade him but all to no avail. People including his relative have spoken to him to let her go as clearly he can't force her but he has refused.

She strongly believes that he has a hidden motive and is scared for herself and family due to his obsession and reluctance to let go even after 4 years. And guess what, SHE HAS SEEN HIM PHYSICALLY JUST ONCE IN HER LIFE.



If na me i for take style kill am before e kill me grin

[b]PLEASE ADVISE AS SHE HAS BEEN DEPRESSED SINCE MORNING [/b]Dont even mention policeas you know our police and stupid demands with no results
Your colleague should even examine herself. Somebody she said she has only met once in her life. She knows his age, his educational level, his monetary capacity, etc. She knows he went to the Mallams, she knows his relatives talked to him to let her be. She is not even considerate. If she can't appreciate somebody who prays for her, can she appreciate somebody who will curse and beat her? Why can't she try him and also pray over it? The man could even be her destined husband since his mind could not leave her

BusinessOzonized Table/bottled Water For Sale At Affordable Price by goodnature(op):
Let me introduce you to a lucrative business you have not noticed. The lucrative business is Table Water (Bottled Water). Everybody needs water to sustain and it is unperishable product and also consumer product. The bottled water is Ozonized Tabe Water that is produced in Ogun State in large quantities. Do you know that Ogun State is known for clean and very good water origin? The Ozonized water is NAFDAC approved. The ozonized table water is available in 50cl, 75cl, 150cl, etc . Let us talk about the 75cl. The price of the 75cl ozonized table water is N350 per pack. There are 12 pieces in the pack. One piece is sold between N50 and N70 in Ogun state and its neighbouring states. N50*12=N600 and N70*12=N840. You can sell the pack between N400 and N550 and have the profit of N50 -N200 on 1 pack. That means the profit on 1000 packs is between N50,000- N200,000. You need to view the ozonized table water to know what I am talking about. Not too long, the Ozonized Table Water got award for the best Table Water in Ogun State. You need to compare the bottled water with other bottled waters and make your own conclusion about the price and quality. For more information, you can contact: bola.lamina@gmail.com

BusinessRe: Foreigners Doing Business In Nigeria. Our Failures Dreadful Struggles & Success. by goodnature: 1:44pm On Aug 26, 2014
ThaiAlNigeria: Greetings Nairalanders,

Looking forward to be a valuable contributor in these forums.

I'm from Bangkok Thailand and our company has been doing business in Nigeria for almost 2 years.

We have a registered company in Nigeria as well as in Bangkok and Dubai.

My elder brother saw an opportunity in Nigeria and made up his mind that Nigeria indeed has a great many opportunities.

Needless to say, actually implementing the idea was not an easy task.

We faced so many great hurdles to make it here that we almost closed down our business at the end of first year for reasons I will further explain soon.

I will separate my post into 2 phases.

1) Our first & second business idea and how that failed (Rice, Clothing and imports)
2) our third business idea and how we made it. (Haulage)

I will start with the first phase

Our first business idea was importing Rice into Nigeria. Seeing that I am from Thailand and Nigerians love Thai rice it sounded like a valid business plan. So we went around Lagos searching for buyers. We came across several powerful women that trades in Rice. We saw these huge warehouses full of rice and many container of rice being offloaded into the warehouses. They were willing and enthusiastic to work with us if we could get them their price. Daily rice prices are fixed. So we made a connection with these powerful women.

Now our next goal was to find the rice at the right prices here in Thailand. But it does not end there. We had to register our rice with Nafdac (Nigerian agency for food and drug). And going to the process of Nafdac is amazingly time consuming and expensive. We hired a lawyer to help us speed the process.

We had also known that the import taxes on rice into Nigeria is 40%. Now here was the issue. We tried finding a source of rice at the right prices here in Thailand but it was not possible. The reason it was not possible was because the import taxes were too high and there was no way we could have made any money selling to the Nigerian Market. We wondered how did other people do it? We investigated. We went to the port and made some connections with some people there and found out that rice importers were not paying import taxes. They were paying money under-table. It is an acceptable practice. But we understood it was against the law and decided to drop the idea of importing rice as wanted to wholly abide by the country laws 100%. We could have made money with the right connections but decided not to go this route.

That is failure of our first business plan.

Our second business plan basically involved importing clothes worth around $2000-$4000. But we failed to sell enough in the market. Due to competition and lack of market research we failed.

After this we decided to try to import various stuff into Nigeria like Air conditioners and electronics. But we realized that the prices the buyers were asking were too low compared to what the factories were selling it for. Plus due to heavy competition, complexity in import/export process and direct easy access to factories itself via alibaba and websites; we as middlemen importers were not needed and even if we were our profit margins would be very little.

So we kissed our import dreams goodbye as well.

Almost 1 year in Nigeria had passed.

If there is one thing we learnt.....doing business in Nigeria was NOT easy.

If you are interested, I will next write the second phase of our story later and tell you how & why we succeeded and the extreme difficulties (To the point where we were about to lose most of our fortunes) we faced before we succeeded in our next venture. (Haulage)

My humblest regards.

Your Friend.
