The only way to survive is that you must be involved. Don't assume the role of manager oh, even though na you get the money.

If you survive the fire of the initial stage, go and sleep...You are wealthy.[/color]

Lanre Shittu , all those ones na senior men wey don dey the 419 game since ages past. I read that when Bill Clinton visited Nigeria during OBJ's tenure, the POTUS had to ask OBJ who was Lanre Shittu because his dossier don full for US law enforcement agents' hand. The man don too commit for yankee.

[color=royalblue] I think he died last year.

Lanre Shittu....His car dealership don expand now sha. Dem don dey assemble brand new China trucks.[/color]

Someone told me the one that kills very quick na logistics business
2 of my primary school mates that were in logistics business died within 8months of each other
Your trailer will load company product they will suddenly call you that trailer don break down for middle of unknown place in Nasarawa or Kogi state. Na to raise mechanic and buy spare parts from Lagos begin track dem down, fix truck continue all the while company dey para for you threatening police and court case for delayed delivery

That my mate, he did the biz for over 5yrs, that means 5yrs of consistently staying awake at night, calling and following up truck drivers all over Nigeria while dealing with BP issues. His wife warned, talked and eventually accepted it

The day he died, he was staying up late as usual with laptop and phone tracking his fleets until the wife woke up early morning saw that he never came to bed went to check him in the living room and he was dead on the laptop and phone

[color=royalblue]Me wey dey warm up to enter nko?

Before I leave this world, I must do and chop transport and logistics money [/color]

BlueRayDick:
You really think Nigeria police care about what the law says?

Nigeria police wey lockup lawyer wey go secure his client release ?

[color=royalblue]I no know nau

I just know say Police never ask me for Custom papers.[/color]

iamoyindamola:
You want to play law with naija police abi
I just read on fp that an immigration officer rejected 10m and an iPhone bribe from a wanted billionaire ritualist, if that was naija police they will excort him to safety

[color=royalblue]They probably wanted 100 million naira then.

The billionaire guy is even funny. Your case still dey hot, and you want escape sharp sharp.

Why won't you be caught?[/color]

BlueRayDick:
The best thing is to have all ur paper documents in one folder/envelope and dump it on them anytime they stop u to ask for papers.

The next thing that will follow is them begging u for "anything for the boys"

[color=royalblue]So I think, the law says that when a car has been registered for 5 or 7 years (I think), you don't need a Custom papers anymore.

Maybe I am wrong sha. [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Omo, If police wan mess u up dem go mess u up o. Dem fit tell u say na stolen car.

My friend was arrested recently because the engine number on his vehicle license has just one number wrong. They checked the vehicle engine, tried to match the number with what was on the vehicle license and then decide to capitalize on a typographical error. Imagine a figure that is supposed to be 3 being types and 5 on the vehicle license.

They took him to their force headquarters but because he has been engaging them like a gentleman wey no want wahala, they billed him 20k, he paid and they allowed him to go. The lead inspector now advised him to get a police report and do an affidavit to address the issue so that he won't get arrested over and over again by other officers.

[color=royalblue]This one na normal for police.

Make Police no ask me for Custom papers oh. I no go even answer am sef. [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Even to drive around Lagos sef, na everyday police go dey use person chop except u be working class wey dey leave home before 6am and return back home late in the night.

[color=royalblue]Police dey check Custom papers?

I never knew oh [/color]

GloriousGbola:
There is a boutique in shoprite festac. I have forgotten the name. Even before these days of inflation their prices were way out there. You pass there everyday and it is the exact same stock for sale.

[color=royalblue]Na normal way nau.

From drugs, to illegal arms, to fraud, people are devising new ways to stay legitimate

Na new pickers dey shout too much[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Are u sure all those people smuggling Cotonou cars into the country won't make the car dealership a bad business at the end of the day?

[color=royalblue] Buying cars from Cotonou is no longer as lucrative as before.

That's because there's no custom paper for it. If you buy am, na to dey drive an inside Lagos. The moment you reach Sagamu, you car don go.

Na only Military people dey buy Cotonou cars Put Stickers, place beret and Koboko. Then you're good to go.[/color]

Whizlight:
Build your ultimate front 3

[color=royalblue] I'll take the last 3 and use $40 take chop Burger

[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Okay, I think I get ur point now .

You may be right. In fact , if I want to advise someone who has access to massive yahoo money now ; I would advise he builds a mall instead of buying all those Cyber Truck , Benz and Rolls Royce they are buying up and down .

Those malls and hotels are good for fronting

[color=royalblue]Na those new pickers dey buy all these ones

Hotel, Real Estate, Petrol Stations, Car dealerships are now fronts for washing and setting.

If I scam 1 million dollars, I go use am buy cars come Nigeria, then open a car dealership and sell it and eat without EFCC pressing my neck.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Well, maybe ur experience is different from mine sha.

I have been noticing some of these malls (at least the ones I patronize) enjoy huge patronage . I started taking notice earlier this year. Maybe because some of these ones I focused on don't have so much competitors close by and because the areas are densely populated.

I came to the conclusion it is a good business when I drove to Lasu-Iba expressway recently. I was going to visit someone so, I had to branch a mall along the way to buy things along. There's this big mall close to LASU with a filling station there. I was wondering why someone would designate a 2 to 3-storey building for a mall in that axis until I spent minutes there and I saw people coming and going doing shopping. Even the number of people employed working within that mall suggests the owner must be really making cool sales because most Nigerian employers would rather employ few staff to do plenty when they are making average sales.

I am not ruling out the money laundering/washing and setting angle, but I feel even if they are using it for washing money it is simply because they are making enough sales ; even better than hotels sef.

[color=royalblue]I am not saying the business isn't profitable....Naah

I'm saying that while it is, the influx of these malls on every corner might not really be what it is

I don't think ShopRite isn't strategic. All their locations are very strategic. And I know about two malls too that are scanty these days

My point is they way it is rising is not what they paint it to be.

Just the way Petrol stations are now 20 meters from each other. You would think Nigerians are buying full tank every second. But people wey sabi don dey use am wash their money enter the system.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
I disagree with this. Mega shopping mall is actually making the owners big money in recent times.

The rate at which some of these malls spring up sends a signal that they are actually cashing out. You need to take a drive around on a saturday or sunday afternoon and see people coming in and out of those shopping malls with trolleys behind them. Go to their car parks and see their security guys having a tough time directing inflow and outflow of cars. When u get inside the malls, u will see queues at the payment point which may be 6 to 8 payment points.

While major shopping malls like Shoprite may be experiencing low patronage, the new ones like Jendol, Justrite, etc are seeing massive patronage . Even when u go their electronics section, u see people buying TVs, Airconditioners, Freezers, etc ; items which they would've gone to buy in Jossy Electronics store.

I think what matters is for the investor to pick the right location and do enough feasibility studies before investing huge cash in the business.

[color=royalblue]I have started to doubt this.

At best, these businesses are now used to wash money into the system.

I know three malls on Lagos Badagry Expressway. They are not more than 300 naira distance from each other. One has two on it.

After the initial launch where there's crowd,it has become scanty as expected.

Malls and Hotels seems to be the new found love of people who want to wash something into the system.

Hello everyone, good day.

I’ve been seriously considering resigning from my current job at the bank to start driving with Uber through the Moove platform. I’m married with two children and currently earn ₦270,000 monthly.

In addition to my job, I’m also into video production — although client requests don’t come frequently, my current role doesn’t allow me the flexibility to attend to them when they do. My hope is that with the car from Moove, I can drive for Uber and at the same time create space to gradually grow my video production business.

I’d really appreciate your honest thoughts and advice on this possible transition. Thank you.

[color=royalblue]What are the terms and conditions of Moove?[/color]

donbrowser:
Yes I'm not from Lagos.
I'm from Oyo that feeds the entire eastern states

[color=royalblue]Wait...

You're not from Lagos?

Wonderful [/color]

[color=royalblue] Jackson should go and check where his destiny is...

Definitely not as a striker [/color]

diggz:
Anybody but Maresca, bro. The guy is unbelievably dull. Even AVB and Grant weren’t this uninspiring. Maresca simply isn’t fit to be our coach.

[color=royalblue]So, I have actually thought about it.

There's a serious dearth of coaches that can deliver. As much as Mascara has misbehaved a lot, with better players, he can still steer the ship to this same point, or even better.

There's no guarantee we will be better with just anybody

See Scamchester, ETH suddenly looks better than Amorim[/color]

Godx:
Show me where an investment of 1k would get you 18,250 at the end the year? You are still making the same mistake as the Aba accountant.

[color=royalblue]At least, I am happy that you can see you goofed.

Well, I don't know any investment that can do so.

The post was a question on which was better, and obviously the 1k is.

My only argument of choosing the 5m is that I can die before 30 years go reach.[/color]

diggz:
Maresca needs to go—no excuses. This isn’t about the team not being ready; it’s about how poor the coach is. Maresca is an absolutely terrible coach.

[color=royalblue]Who can we replace him with?

That's the problem.[/color]

nateevs:
When I was telling someone the other day that we are not close to being ready, he said it was not true.

[color=royalblue]Our expectations next season should not just be high.

UCL football, top 3 and maybe one local cup.

We still have few years to become a dominant team.[/color]

Godx:
1k will get you 18,250 return in a day. Who taught you maths?

[color=royalblue]I put *365 there. Did you miss it?

5% of 1000 is 50.
50 times 365 = 18,250

By the end of the year, this is the return for the 1k that was paid to you on January 1st. You're still receiving another 1k on the 2nd and 3rd.

You still don't get it, do you?[/color]

[color=royalblue]We cannot play UCL with these set of players.[/color]

Godx:
So this is how you dazy guys here with fake calculation. 1k daily is 365,000 yearly. An investment of that amount with a 5% return will get you 18,250 per annum. 18,250 multiply by 30years is 547,000.

[color=royalblue]The 18,250 is the returns for just one of the 1ks you received daily nau

The question said 1k daily..

5% of 1k * 365 is just for one 1k bill you received in a day. [/color]

[color=royalblue]In a country where you can easily change your identity; Change your NIN and other official documents, I hope this works[/color]

Jaysharp:
Thanks boss much respect.

What's your advice on getting it?

[color=royalblue]First advice

Flee from that mechanic.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
Dey play!

People wey don dey explain and defend this move already on twitter .

Dem say he wan use the money plan and develop Nigeria such that all the infrastructure deficit we've had over the years , the gap will be bridge within the few years of his presidency. Dem say Tinubu with this move is taking us back to the path of prosperity.

Omo! I never see this kind thing before for my life, make people dey lie to themselves confidently . Imagine thinking Tinubu who awarded a multi trillion naira project like the Coastal road to his Lebanese friend without following due process is interested in returning Nigeria to one yeye path of properity

[color=royalblue]

I was amused when people were asking the right questions about the road. Something that's less than 100km from the original one, is what FG is committing 4 trillion naira in 8 years?

After 8 years, they are coming to tell you why Shettima will be better than Tinubu [/color]

[color=royalblue] Anytime I come across Odumeje's videos, I always listen for that Hypeman wey dey drop one kind wicked laugh.

Whenever I read articles like this, I can’t help but wonder - do the parents fantasizing about their kids becoming football stars realize people like this exist too?
For every 10 players who make it to the top and stay relevant, there are hundreds or thousands more who fade out, forgotten, broke, and broken.
The brutal truth? Unless you’re among the elite few, football is a ticking time bomb.
Look around - most ex-players are either dirt poor or struggling to maintain the life they once had.

[color=royalblue]Where did you get this data from?

Do you know how many ex players we have worldwide?

Anybody who fails to invest in the future, would pay for it later; whether ex player, doctor or yahoo boy.

It has nothing to do with football [/color]

BlueRayDick:
Well, there are some they do throughout daytime in which they will announce on radio.

Around 2009 or thereabouts I was hustling somewhere in Imota, Ikorodu and back then they had one of their festivals that included oro. The curfew was all day; there was no human movement within the town all through the day. Only few cars driving past the express that passed through the outskirts of the town.

Maybe things have changed now, but I know back then that they do all day oro. Most people working outsite Ikorodu but living within Ikorodu either stay back at home or they don't come home from work till next day

[color=royalblue]Maybe Oba die or something big.

I don't think they shut down a town or place for a full day because of Oro.[/color]

BlueRayDick:
They ought to restrict their oro to strictly night curfew, it makes no sense preventing people from going about their lawful business in this Tinubu economy when hunger dey for town

[color=royalblue]Oro starts from Night till daytime

Some end around 5am, and some 12pm.[/color]
