Family › Re: How Do You Recover Money From A Dead Relative Bank Account? by jabolo(m): 5:41pm On Jul 03, 2019
onyxo76:
You will need a lawyer to help you apply for a letter of administration from the court to take to the bank, the funds will now be moved into an estate account which can now be accessed by a would be signatory but its a process that can take a while, you will also pay 10 percent of the total amount in the accounts to the state treasury before the letter of administration is released to you
This.

The Letter of administration is the first step and a good lawyer will guide you through this. The procedure varies depending on the court jurisdiction but there may be requirements such as death certificate, death notice publications etc. It will be issued to his next of kin, presumably his wife, else somebody that has an affidavit to that effect. The Lawyer will make sure it is specific to the bank in question if you give him/her the account number. Probably also the balance.

With this, approach the bank to open an Estate account with his wife as the administrator. (it is better you get details of the account officer from any branch and once you have this, it is easier to have direct communication with this person). She might have to visit only once to sign/verify documents. Note: some banks require references (other account holders to open such) and she must have her own BVN.

The way the Estate account works is the main account will be closed and net proceeds transferred into this Estate account which the Wife csn now make withdrawals from etc. Any dividend mandates etc will alo point to this new account.

I really don't know when u started investing but rate have gone down to 7 percent around 2015/2016......in the financial world they called it lazy man bussiness ....inflation 12 percent tb 12 percent ..infact their was a time fixed deposits was even higher bank are smart they set up nice buildings with suited staff to collect cheap or free deposits at 0 to 4 percent the dump at 12.5 in tb and bond use 2.5 percent as runing cost then net profit over 8 percent ,they not much affected by inflation cos the investing capital is almost free .....imagine some one giving u 100 m with the probability he will only withdraw 5 m in the whole year ..u fix it at 12.5...u generate 1250000 u pay him 5 m and earn 7.5 ....used 1.5m to run the bank ,bank makes 5 million...share holders are happy
I am with you bro even though I do have some investment in TB in a personal capacity. You speak a lot of sense and take a holistic view. Kudos.

Let's be honest, the reason we want the rates to be as high as feasible is personal selfishness - not necessarily a bad thing IMO.

The TBill rate however, represents the minimum risk-free rate for investments in Nigeria so all other lending rates are referenced to it. Lower Tbill rates bring down overall lending rates which can only help to stimulate the economy.

That, to me and this is personal, is a far better outcome than some additional zeroes in my bank account.

Also, the true test of the TBill arena as a 'market' implies a relationship between demand and pricing. When a lot of money is chasing risk-free TBills, the interest rate should continually trend down. At some point, some of that money would drop away and go look for more productive returns. A very good thing, everyone has a point to make this decision, not 'wail at the moon' of previous high TBill rates.

Currently, entrepreneurs are suffering. Jobs are not being created. It is not sustainable.

I think only dumb people will believe this report.
Atiku has been in Nigeria's political scene enough to understand that the Supreme Court cannot put the handover day on hold.
It's even funny when the US has to do it.
This was how the same newspaper 'authoritatively' reported that Atiku was in the US meanwhile he hadn't traveled to the US at the time.

When newspapers start peddling fake news, it just tells the sane minds one thing: avoid us!
It's not fake news bro.

My advice for you is just, Sir do the all the necessary partitions before DPM, so that you won't blame your self in the nearest future. There is nothing like short cut in building
You have not attempted to answer the question, you've just put the fear of some terrible outcome in his mind.

This is the typical Naija penchant for discouraging enquiring minds. I can imagine how our kids have lost their curiosity and imagination. They grow up with silly mantras such as "Touch not my annointed", etc.

(Apologies to the questioner - I'm not comparing you to a kid!). I'm no civil engineer but let me try - I think because the load bearing columns are normally at the end of the partitions, and these are specified to work in conjunction with the lower foundation horizontal beams or blindings, the partitioning has to mimic this for proper transfer of load.

Perhaps also because it is easier to compact the filling material to a satisfactory level when contained in partitioned off areas rather than a wider area and future settlement is even.

To answer your question, I won't relocate my TB profits to a foreign country. As a business owner, my income varies, so I have drawn out a plan to ensure that at least N1m gets transferred to my Nigerian account every month, upon taking care of my mortgage and other monthly expenses. That's how I structure my life here....someone else may beg to differ, and I respect that!
Same here. Anyone looking to invest in Nigeria to support a lifestyle abroad is on a fool's errand.

- Nigerians send more than $22billion home each year.
- An international bank lending to an infrastructure project in Nigeria is looking at Libor + 600bps so 8% return minimum
- It also requires the currency to be hedged and guaranteed convertibility when it comes to repatriation
- It wants political risk insurance coverage and international arbitration.
- Again, Nigerians send more than $22billion home each year

You can see there is the screeching need for a Naira denominated Diaspora infrastructure bond (but FGN backed) that offers just north of T-Bill rates.

BluntBoy:
Some people's level of idiocy is staggering.

That beggar could be one of those who voted for Atiku. Thinking of the North as a monolith is a sort of staggering ignorance that pervades the South.

Then, as per denying beggars money because of differing choices, that is the height of stupidity and pettiness.
Recognize it for what it is bro, a 'coping mechanism', anything to compensate for the psychological trauma effected by the election results. As human beings, we evolved these defensive mechanisms over time to survive in the 'harsh' world - where things just don't make sense anymore.

It is very damaging and if these people don't seek professional help, whenever they step outside their echo chambered corners of Nairaland comprising their co-cheerleaders, it will insidously consume their lives and the lives of those around them.

The beggars will be alright. I'd rather be in their shoes.

But to me that is just saying we should continue with the same status co, there are various VRAF system that dosen't need the heavy ones with 20HP. i Have a multisplit system that i will be installing soon with very low current usage and absolutely no surge because it is an inverter system.
Hope to shopcase that when installed. it is so efficient that when only one unit is used the split outside system reacts only to that and dosen't take the whole current as to if the three are used at once
I am researching the multisplit options as I also abhor the clutter. Trouble is, the original building design ought to have considered it in the first place and hidden ducts can be provided for. It is difficult to retrofit into a completed building.

Having said that, we'll get there someday, so I would appreciate recommendations on the best vendors for multisplits in Nigeria.

Thanks in advance.

No problem with the measurement. I used 9 inch approximately for the height.
Do you intend to plaster it later.
It's possible to apply taroline on the bare surface without plastering. I've seen it done on fences.
If it would be plastered, use of textcoat would be reasonable to give balance between cost and durability.
If you want to use the taroline, I could recommend a painter that applies it for you.
You would buy the sharp sand and cement needed and the spraying machine, like 2 of it at 12k or thereabout and pay the painter per sqm for application. normally between N200 and N250 per sqm.
you could leave the taroline as it is or paint it after.
This is how the taroline looks painted. This was done on a plastered wall though.
Thanks. Sounds like it's easier to just get it plastered. Then paint with the textcoat? I presume you can supply the required quantities?

How many applications (coats) will suffice?
