Microfinance for the poor, banks for others. There's no point countering my post when you don't live in Nigeria presently.

But you counter other peoples post even when you don't live abroad. OK im getting you.

I'm laughing because he clearly has no idea.. cheesy

To your question, find the answer below:

Access to credit
Easy set up process for businesses
Cheap labor/man power availability
Tax waivers
Available market for various commodities
Agriculture loans and credit facilities
Opportunities to invest
Real estate

Please madam what access to credit are you talking about. As someone that worked in a bank in Nigeria before relocating, I can tell you you don't know what you are talking about. Can a tailor or a mechanic in Nigeria get access to credit? Banks in Nigeria don't just throw credit like its coffetti thrown at a wedding, only the big business people get access to credit in Nigeria. I don't know what you do for a living in Nigeria or maybe you have the information I don't have but on this case I beg to differ.

Investing in Nigeria by proxy is always a problem because of trust issues.

Investing here is a good idea if you see the opportunity.

Keeping money in savings account here is waste of money as interest is close to nothing.

You are very correct here. Trust is a very serious issue when you are trying to invest in Nigeria. One thing I always advice people who want to incest in the west is to look into Franchising. Buying a franchise will save a lot of stress and marketing because you are buying into an already existing brand. Also, there are a lot of cheap franchises to buy but people don't know.

Not necessarily more diversified perhaps more enlightened society or shall we say less ignorant people

I don't know where you got the idea that Americans are more ignorant or less enlightened but I guess everyone has a right to their opinions.

Even though I live in America, there is something I so much love about London that I cant even explain. I think its just the historical feel about it. Europe in general if you ask me.

Does this said package have a tracking number. I receive packages from Nigeria every time and they are sent through EMS. Even though sometimes it takes longer than expected, I am assured of getting it and I get it because I track it until It gets here.

@justwise mynd44 Seun Come and see o. No be only Nigerian airlines the mess up

No they didn't mess up, they just have a standard and they are maintaining the standard. Will you like to fly in a plane smelling of Urine? A Nigeria airline would have made their passengers smell the urine all through the journey.

based on the nature of work of my sender, He asked me to find another means because he can't afford to secure time for it.

How do you see PayPal? can I receive money with it, if not can you help me with process of direct deposit...he mentioned bankwire too.
thanks in anticipation

This is very easy. Money transfer to Nigeria bank accounts can be done online and you get value in 10 minutes. Tell the sender to use World Remit. All he/she need to do is download the world remit app and you give him/her you account details and he/she transfers to you. It takes 5 minutes.

oh yeah i met payton and stockton and have their autographs on my wallet. that was definitely the golden era. hey the accent aint no biggie bro so long as people can understand what you are saying. nothing worse than a fake accent lol. just keep it the way it is.

Exactly, no need to form the accent. For us Nigerians, its very difficult for our accent to change. My wife is from the Caribbean and she came to America when she was 22, 15 years down the line she sound so American but a Nigerian accent will never change. I work in a office where I have to give powerpoint presentation almost every week, I have learnt to slow down when I talk and people understand me perfectly even with my Nigerian accent.

claremont:


Culture is fluid, it isn't static. There is a strong correlation between cultural integration by immigrants and career success, immigrants who cling on to their own cultures and refuse to integrate with others are overwhelmingly the same people who end up with unskilled jobs. This is a fact. My point remains - an immigrant who considers his/her culture so important that they choose not to imbibe the culture of their host country is better off going back to his/her own country. There is no way a successful immigrant will not imbibe aspects of the culture of the country that has made him/her a success, even Wole Soyinka speaks with a foreign accent.

I love your intelligent contributions.

Well let me lend my voice to this discussion. I am a naturalized citizen and i am in the army reserve. I work as an accountant in an Healthcare company and i have a good rappot with my senior vp cos im good at what i do.
People ask ne where i am from everytime because of my accent and im always proud to tell them im from Nigeria. I am in charge of the companys money and they trust me with it, i think it depends on the type of people you meet and how enlightening they are. My svp's husband is from Iran so she understands what it means to be an immigrant.

This right here is deep. An average Nigerian woman in America will always want to use the American legal system to deal with their husbands on issues which can be settled amicably if they were in Nigeria. I always say it that the American Legal system only favors Women, Children and Animals. The men don't have any right whatsoever.

How can you take what someone has worked all their life to accomplish in America which is a no mans land and expect that person to go home singing Shakiti Bobo? NO! These are crimes of passion and I pity those men because they felt boxed into a corner and feel there is nothing to live for anymore. We see all these things happening here in America everyday and honestly our naija brothers and sisters need to do better.

Never ever forget where you come from or how you started.

Foreign Affairs / Re: Hillary Clinton Collapses At 9/11 Ceremony, Rushed Out In Ambulance by Marriott1980(m): 5:35pm On Sep 12, 2016
Majority of those who have a lot to say on this thread are not even in the US. Most of these heresay about Trump and Hilary is what most of them read inside Alaroye newspaper. As a Nigerian, of what benefit is the candidacy of Trump or Hilary to you? Even those of us Nigerians in America. Trump will say Hilary is crooked, you guys take it and run with it. Hilary says Trump is not worthy to be America's president, you guys take it and run with it. These are two people who want to win the election and will say anything to win.

If truly Hilary was wearing a body armour yesterday, I wont blame her for collapsing because as someone in the US army, I know what if feels like to wear body armour in this hot summer weather. if you are not strong you will collapse and your intestines will feel as if they are being cooked on fire.

No you are wrong. Not only efcc have access to it. I know this cos I am a former staff of Zenith bank. After processing deposits each day, there is what we call batch and this is all the deposit slips used for the day. Each teller scan their batch in the computer as a backup to the paper.

So that copy is there electronically for anybody who has a password to log into the backup, which most times is any staff in the cash & teller unit.

Crime / How I Busted A Nigerian Scammer On Craigslist by Marriott1980(m): 5:22pm On May 11, 2016
So I posted my samsung phone for sale quietly on Craigslist hoping to sell it fast and get my money. I got a message on my cellphone for the phone and happily opened hoping it was a legit buyer.

Adverts / Re: Herbal Tea, The Secrete Our Fathers Used In Satisfying Their Wives. by Marriott1980(m): 2:38pm On Mar 27, 2016
I have been following this thread and reading through comments of people I am disappointed. This guy didn't put a gun to anybody 's head to buy the product. Just as in business law it's offer and acceptance. He made an offer, if you accept the terms then buy , if not keep it pushing and move ahead.

I can assure most of the people commenting negatively need this badly but they just want reassurance that it works and the guy has tried to give that and people who have used are also commenting. If you think you don't believe the guy just let his business be, go to the hospital if thats where you trust and just move ahead.
