I would love if we can form a group....learn from each other.... CRITIZE each others ideas so we can improve before finding the ANGEL INVESTORS

MrCEO69:

futurism:
You seem to know this niche and business inside out... There is one untapped niche in the money/finance niche that is yet to kick off in Africa, there have been some small players but none has been anything mainstream because they almost non existing...

One key factor is missing but I know it will thrive... SADLY, I fear to speak up until I am ready.

you are afraid someone may steal your idea. I have one of such sectors in mind too.

maybachmusic:
Same issues I had when I missed out on millions of dollars in the ICO space in 2017

The little team I brought together. Lazy lot

Mehn 2017 the easiest year to become a naira billionaire in crypto
If only I had a tight web developer friend then

Anyway boys are back to the board and we will get heard on due time.

This time all white team. Fully freelanced. No time for people who don't think on our frequency

Why does everyone complain about a lazy team
It's unfortunate though.

Gerrard59:
Mind blogging figures.

I'm happy for them and these are the richest companies in the future with owners being billionaires or at worst multimillionaires. When I read the funds poured into them, I can only think of the sector I invested. But then, I only invest in what I understand and unfortunately I don't understand the tech industry enough to be an investor.

Nonetheless, kudos to them.

Gerrard59 do you live within Lagos?

Gazzy88:
Why do you know almost everything in tech? I have some golden ideas, can I hookup with you for enlightenment?

I'm in the Tech industry myself. Message me on Whatsapp +2349066706704. We are currently moving into our office somewhere in Ikeja. We can set up a meeting in the next weeks.

ezenwajosh:

I can help you with that if you want to.

Timmypromise:
What of the owner of PAGA!!!!

Yeah Tayo Oviosu, they also raised $10 million some months ago.

LordSkinnie:
FinTech oooooooooo

Exactly...

BetterPoison:
Wow... Everything is critical thinking and support from family and friends.

Also Considering the age and period the founder of this Start-up graduated, it's obvious they did not stay at home for a long time.
Staying at home after NYSC kills critical thinking, problem-solving skills and initiative.

Lol you can say that again. When Dickson Nsofor started this Korapay stuff, all he presented was an idea and he got a seed funding of N5 Billion naira. There are many organizations willing to fund disruptive ideas in Nigeria. They know Nigeria is a good market but they are not ready for this agbero lifestyle so they go through people who know the terrain. Similar strategy employed by Uber when it acquired Careem.

When Shola and Ezra of paystack graduated they found their way and applied to stripe to fund them. At that time only Interswitch was around with the yeye #150k integration fees. Stripe gave paystack their template, funding with engineering talents. Paystack met up with KPIs later and Visa decided to pour more money. I know paystack now process over N10 Billion in monthly payments.

Segun Oni's MDaaS startup in Ibadan recently got $1 million from the US and another from finca ventures . Things are happening!

bros pls enlighten me. Would they plant de crops on water-filled pots or what? How does it work?

Erm kind of. What they do is to make a pipe with several openings and then pass water filled with required nutrients through it. They then plant the seed s into those openings and in little time the seeds begin to grow into fine agro products.

SpoiltVirgin:
How safe is this soiless agriculture that Landmark has been pushing for some time now. I need to convince myself to be comfortable with proceeds from soiless farms.

Soiless agriculture is safe. There's even less nutrient loss because all nutrients are determined in advance. However it is mostly championed by Urban nations like Singapore, Isreal who don't have the luxury of land to use up for extensive farming.

But Landmark being an Agric uni must explore it. It should be very useful to a place like Lagos if they ever dream of being self sufficient in food production.

The presiding official of the Living Faith Church who equally doubles as the Chairman, Board of Regents of Landmark university - Dr. David Oyedepo has opened up the Landmark University center for soiless agriculture which is being carried out in conjunction with Bics farms.

Also according to reports, the education arm of the ministry had equally invested N2 Billion to improve on Agricultural output of her university(ies) following a successful modelling process which saw Professors travel to Isreal to understudy their Agricultural exploits.

Trump is the real fool hear
America has lost their respect . They only live in past glory
He feel being the president of America makes a semi God
He respects no one and he always demand for one

Lol what an irony. A person whose country does not even have a glory yet to be seen has the temerity to say the US is living on Past glory... Maybe I can believe Europe is living on past glory sha, certainly not America. When those guys cough the whole world catches cold.

KendrickAyomide:
I remember back then When oyedepo said the vision is one church per city. [ wetin come happen

You were not updated ni. Every Vision is time bound - That's why you hear things like Vision2020 and so on. For instance Covenant university runs with Vision2022, but by 2022, Vision2032 would be declared.

He has achieved his vision of per city and has taken it to the next level - per village.

Good news!

Winners’ Chapel Plants 3,000 Rural Churches

by Leke Beecroft

*To plant 2,000 more before year end.
*Bishop Oyedepo leads others in aggressive street evangelism.
Plus:
*Brief History of Church Growth in the Commission.

Plans by the Bishop Oyedepo led Living Faith Church Worldwide aka Winners’ Chapel International to plant 5,000 rural churches in 2019 is fast gaining traction. Latest reports have it that 3,000 rural churches have been planted in Nigeria during the first half of 2019 as stated by Bishop Oyedepo recently. The Church has also ordained evangelists to administer these churches this bring the number of church branches in Nigeria to well over 8,000 with well over 1,000 churches in over 65 nations across the globe. Presently, a neighboring country already has over 174 church branches apart from other countries in Africa and in 4 other continents namely Europe, Asia, North America and South America. Online coverage during the annual Shiloh Program also reaches over 170 countries every December. The Church intends to establish 2,000 more rural churches in Nigeria before the end of the year and many more outside Nigeria also.

Bishop Oyedepo has also continued his usual street evangelism on an almost daily basis since May 2015 when he heard a diving marching order : I THE GOD OF WONDER DOUBLE, I AM VISITING YOU: this indicating that God had come to double the Church many times over. Often times, he has successfully invited people on the street to church at an average over 1,000 weekly while helping them to meet basic needs; often people have been invited in their thousands leading to over 200,000 worshippers being invited personally and in person from the streets by the Bishop since the new move began. His deputy, Bishop Abioye has also followed suit in this street evangelism revival. Church members all over the world have also carried this vision and this has led to an exponential growth of the Church globally.

Living Faith World Outreach Centre or Living Faith Church Worldwide has had a history of consistent growth through evangelism. The Commission led by Bishop David Oyedepo began as a ministry in 1981 but started as a Church when the Church arm was commissioned on September 17, 1983 by Pastor Enoch Adeboye of the Redeemed Christian Church of God.

According to records, the Church started with 4 members in December 1983 and this grew to 21 early in 1984. By May 1984 it became 57. At this point, the leaders of the church used markers to write on cardboards and pasted on strategic noticeboards and trees within Kaduna metropolis inviting people to the one bedroom apartment in Unguwar Sarki. At that point, David Oyedepo usually parked his Volkswagen at the filling station by the junction leading to his street to take the few who were available to his home for services. By May 1985, the number had grown to 263 leading to the building of a ‘grass cathedral’ to accommodate the growing crowd. It grew to 743 then 1293 in May 1986 and May 1987 respectively. The Church by divine direction spread from April 24, 1987 to 5 towns namely Maiduguri, Biu, Bauchi, Azare and Mubi. By May 88 and May 89, the Kaduna Church grew from 2062 to 2693. The first major auditorium of the Church , the 4,000 capacity Garden of Faith, Barnawa was announced in 1989. A few months later, the Church began in Lagos while the Kaduna church had grown to 3428 in attendance by May 1990. The Garden of Faith was dedicated in December 1995.

The move to Lagos began a new phase of the ministry. The church moved to the Iyana Ipaja area which was not a popular place to start church in Lagos. This area was a group of brothels on the Raji Obi street. Raji Oba was popular in the 70s after being killed leading to a celebrated murder case at the Supreme Court. The Lagos Church started with 250 worshippers at 1A, New Era Road and then moved about 150 meters to the Raji Oba location. At this point, the Lagos Church became known as Winners’ Chapel which has since become the popular name of the Church. Pastor Simeon Afolabi who is now of the Revival People’s Church, Port Harcourt, Nigeria was the First Pastor of the Church before David Oyedepo ordained Bishop a year earlier by Archbishop Benson Idahosa of blessed memory soon took over.
The Church witnessed tremendous growth over the next free years. From May 1993 to May 1995, she increased from 2785 to 5410 and 13489. The Church complex was completed by December 1995 and dedicated by Benson Idahosa.

In 1994, Bishop Oyedepo received divine instruction ‘The harvest of Africa is now overripe, Rush in and preserve it from decadence’. This led to the move to establish a foothold in African nations.

May 1996-1999 witnessed an increase from 21283 to 28306, then 29634 to 40682.
The Church began the Canaanland project by September 1998 and by the following year September 1999, a week before the move to Ota, the numbers had reached an excess of 50,000.

At inception of Faith Tabernacle, Bishop Oyedepo declared, ‘The Tabernacle has been built, the Tabernacle must be filled.

Many including Christians and some church members who soon left thought the move to Canaanland Ota, a town actually in a neighboring state and about 40km away from the capital of Lagos was an erroneous move which would lead to the decline of the Church.
The ministry received the vision ‘Mission To the World’ in August 2001 and consequently reached out to other continents of the world.

In Nigeria, starting from Lagos, the numbers grew due to the power of the word being preached and despite the distance from the City, the church in Ota witnessed 80,000 in attendance by October 2000.
The growth remained stable for a while and by January 2007 the second service began in the 50,000 capacity church auditorium. January 2008 and 2009 heralded the third and fourth services and fir a while a fifth service. Overflows were soon built to cater for an additional 52,000 overflow facility thus totalling 102,000 seated comfortably at any point in time apart from Shiloh period.

The Church had 700 churches by November 2009 before growing to 5,600 by November 2013.

The present move however is a unique one which has brought multitudes to the Kingdom while ensuring the growth of a Kingdom Army. As the church prepares to move to Faith Theatre very soon, she continues to spread on all sides, in Church growth, Church spread as well as church attendance in leaps and bounds ensuring that the Church plays her part towards the establishment of a glorious Army that will herald the coming of the Lord.

Acts 5:14
And believers were the more added to the Lord, multitudes both of men and women.
