stancydg: First things first my guy, register your venture capital organisation as a PLC, that's public liability company with corporate affairs commission, then set up a corporate bank[not an individual] account, after which you can then come up with creative and believable ideas of raising funds from the public, which will be guaranteed by shareholding. Consult a legal practitioner for more details on how these things work. That's my little advice. Cheers!

Omo sexy, nufin do u

Yesterday i came across a trend on NL that read. Why Africa may never produce the next Facebook,Google,Groupon etc, by an Africa Forbes magazine writer. At least he said may not, so there's hope for Africa to produce one. Why i was reading through the article, i observed that the writer kept hammering on one point, which is lack of funding for great Africa in innovation out there, for entrepreneurial like you and me to get access to funding and absent of Angel or venture capitalist to invest in our business ideas to enable our business idea go global in the nearest future. Bank unwillingness to provide you with funds without collateral even after wasting your time and giving you false hope like they did with me(collecting your business plan and give you the impression they will get back to you)at the end of the day it all boil's down to one thing "no collateral no loan". No need for me to bore you with the scenario cause obviously u know how it ends, i go straight to the point why i brought this trend up.

After i read that trend on NL and carefully read through the reaction/comment to that post by my fellow Nigerians and the point a Nairalander made P.losh, i think he created a trend on that too. it got me thinking and i had an idea which might b crazy or unrealistic, but i don't believe impossibility cause i know we can if we want to and for the greater Good it posses to our economy, so i am going to try. I have a plan to start up my on venture capitalist Investment Banking firm, about two years and counting(Big dream that one dey), and i did my intensive research on how to run one, and how it can survive the Africa factor e.g Nigeria, and i figured it out.

Since am limited by funding i gave my proposal to a few big shot who have money to throw around, but as usual i got turned down as they saw it as unrealistic and their unwillingness to invest in our country, aside oil and gas. But their is hope cause i can still run my own venture capital firm that will invest in great innovation of Nigerian entrepreneurs like you and me out there, bringing about the economic revolution we've always prayed for in our dear country Nigeria. Now my fellow Nigerians brothers and sisters, here is my plan it may sound silly, impossible though but yes we will make the impossible possible with one voice and one accord. Nigeria has a population of 165 million people and counting, i need a start up capital of 1.2 billion naira and if only 2 million Nigerians believes and are willing to help make my dream a reality by contributing the sum of 500 or 1000 naira respectively, of what so ever amount appeals to your hearts, i will be able to raise the require start up capital of 1.2 billion naira to power my venture, and set up an industry aim at powering, assisting, and investing in great business ideas and innovation of entrepreneurs to boost our private sector to enable us grow to our full potentials as Nigerians. I know some people after reading this will think am a scam but know this, what am doing took me a great deal and frustration to bring this to the open to source for fund from Nigerians.

A friend of mine always says and i quote "it will only take one man to change our country Nigeria for good" ONE MAN. Just as Dr Nnamdi Azikiwe and a few brave founding fathers brought about our independence, Mandela brought about the independence of South Africa, Mohammed Ghandi reunited 250 million Indians, Chief Adeyemi lawson the founder of ECO PAN AFRICA BANK. So will one man change Nigeria by Gods grace, am not saying am the man but i might be a stepping stone for that man or woman.

Obama in his campaign gave hope to Americans with his slogan 'Yes we can', and i say 'Yes we will make the impossible possible'(Our generation). 1.2 billion naira start up capital raised with the help of fellow Nigerians to set up my firm with the sole aim of investing in great business ideas and innovation, might be the stepping stone to Nigerians greatness and economic revolution and prosperity(job for all and economic stability). If you believe in my dream and believe our generation can change Nigeria and make a difference then help support, make my dream a reality.
