What are majority of Nigerian entrepreneurs creating? Opening shops selling the same thing?

You start selling bra and you think you are an entrepreneur?

The only entrepreneur in that chain, is the man who looked at those boobies and realised they need a home. Or the one who went a step further to add iron to it- lifting up fallen heroes.

We keep doing the same thing, zero innovation and shouting ENTREPRENEUR. That is just buying and selling.

Dangote started as a trader. Same survival skill is needed in production and trading.

Never forget a super market owner is a trader but the road side restaurant woman is a producer. Same business skill applies.

pocohantas:
Please, lets not act like most business people are comfortable. From my last job to the current, I have been in units that make me see lots of "entrepreneurs" books. Majority of them struggle to stay afloat.

How many businesses in Nigeria can rake in 150k in profit?

You are talking middle class 9-5, most 1-man businesses shouting entrepreneur are way below middle class.

Lots of our parents did businesses, how far? Isn't it what some of them saw that made them insist their kids must be educated?

Abeg. Tell this one to someone who hasn't seen both sides. My parents are business people and I know their struggles, not this eldorado you new-generation business men paint.

Even the organization you are working is a business set up by somebody who didn't give up. Did you ever think about that?

He set it up and gave you a job. What are you doing for the coming generation?

ornicus:
most nigerians just throw the entrepreneur term around.
all they are doing is trading
the same hustling that is flooding this country with fake and substandard goods.
not actually creating a product or service or value

Not every body is trading. But the basic skills also apply in trading.

Even Dangote started as a trader.

Honestly, I run a startup and if I could go back in time again I would never do it. People glorify entrepreneurship but it's very difficult. I have headaches and palcipations at months end when the bills start setting in. The environment in Nigeria is also tough with everyone trying to take from you without adding value in anyway. I rather have a well paid job with a nice salary where I just do what I am told and get paid at the end of the month.

Don't chicken out bro. So if everyone keeps looking for a well paid job, who is going to create the jobs?

SendoSendal:
But an entrepreneur created the 9-5 job you are doing. You also owe it to the generation coming to create their 9-5 jobs.

This is so true. There is a time work, and there is a time to create work for others.

djoe21:
Then remove deposit fees and increase withdrawal fees of such amount. How does deposit fee encourage people to lodge their money in the bank?

With deposit fee, you as a businessman will require your customers to pay you through other means rather than cash cos cash deposit will cost you money.

You get?

pacespot:
OK, if it is to discourage cash transactions, so do these charges apply to amount deposited by cheque?

If someone issued you a cheque of 5 million naira, that means you would have to forgo about 5% of that to your banker before being deposited into your account.

Cheque is not cash. It won't apply to cheques.

mrvitalis:
This is luxury tax no one should complain

It would affect me very much but i believe in taxing

It's not luxury tax.

It's policy implementation tax, aimed at encouraging cashless transactions.

People really need to stop moving bundles of cash around.

Whomever took the picture is a pervert.


I only see two people cooperating and working together to achieve a common goal, despite the obvious odds

Jayslicky:
Rihanna dancing or singing to burnaboy's "Ye" is not a big deal, she is a human just like everyone.

Free yourselves from mental slavery- Bob Marley.

It's a big deal. It shows how far our music is getting.

Do you know there are musicians in Kenya, Tanzania, Uganda and the rest? But you don't get to hear their music down here. Be appreciative bro.

Follow them closely. Don't act cool.

They are buying time so they can come up with a reason you won't get the money.

Lol

Looks like a made-up chat from attention seeker.

This is a serious case actually. The guy no try.


But I think get down should mean get down to avoid stories like this. It is Uber but it is his car.

Leave the premises when your rent expires.

Just leave and move in somewhere else.

El-rufai is just an idiot. Whats the reason for the threat?

Empty threat. Rubbish.

anigbajumo:
Oga pass me that weed wey u dey smoke abeg,he is only a good goal scorer nothing much bro.Same as Keane,aguero,Lewandowski bro.Nothing special about him than goals and other striker are doing that too.

Dumb posts everywhere. Isn't football won by goals? abi you want to be unfortunate like Arsenal... beautiful football without result.

maximunimpact:
Getting employees has been my biggest challenge

Lol. I thought there are a lot of people looking for jobs?






I get you Sha

RiyaGoddess:
Enough of all these Prosperity Messages. The church has now made it look like Jesus came to die for prosperity. They have made it look as if, if you are not prospering, you are not a Christian or believer.
Enough Biko.
The Church needs to wake up. The Church should look into their messages.
What we need now is more VALUES & INTEGRITY messages not PROSPERITY.
Read my signature.

The purpose of Christianity, is not just to change your life, it's not only to heal diseases, it is so that you can become the dwelling place of divinity so that God can begin to live in you, talk and move through you.Good Morning FAM.

You didn't get his message. Prosperity is essential part of Christianity.

He didn't condemn giving neither did he deny prosperity. He only regretted placing a price tag on his gospel with a promise of financial blessings like most pastors still do today.

Ashimolowo is expert on that.

Tajbol4splend:
Granit Xhaka is a great liability and major reason we've pegged back over the years since taking over Santi Cazorla place

You don't even know your team. He is not playing carzola place.

Xhaka is a great player.

Arsenal fans have very short memory.

And nobody is defending Mercy yet

thesicilian:
Nigerians are not the only foreigners in South Africa but why are we always being the first to be attacked? At times we really need to look inwards.

They are making more progress and intimidating them.

Lol

kestolove95:
Highest market Without even a plant from any of d company

Transsion is the highest supplier and it's owned by a Nigerian.

Daviestunech:

SOFTENGR:
Sterling bank is not so dumb to just believe trash coming from a asshole of a bitch

He is loosing his job bro. That's exactly what the evil girl wants. She probably set him up on purpose but that's not the end of his life.

I said set-up cos she is the one that suggested the guy sleep over in a house with 3 big naked yansh lying aroun.

excelfele:
Yes, this car is barely used

Ok naa. happy selling.

excelfele:
