All I can see is mismanagement and lack of maintenance. picture of 1962 looking better than current situation. Oh I forgot that they are waiting for the government to come and maintain it for them.

A few weeks ago, some people were complaining that the referral link for StanbicIBTC was useless and that the asset managers does not reward for referals, I have to state that it is not true, because just a few days ago, someone from here registered using my referal code and my points has been increasing over time (I think whenever the person funds their account), I remember I signed up using Emmasoft's link and I am paying it forward and saying please register with my link and may God continue to flourish the balance of that aunty so that she will be investing more. Good Afternoon oga Emmasoft grin grin

I have been in Cote D'Ivoire for about a week, country looks good, quite more expensive than Nigeria. There is an air of safety (people walk about in the night in the streets, with their phone open and pressing on it with all sense of abandon).
Visited Belleville market within the vicinity of Marcory and there are several Nigerians in the market selling clothes etc. There is a significant presence of Nigerians, but you would never know because almost everyone speaks french. Infact, I bumped into a Nigerian in the crowdiness of the market and he angrily retorted "Enyia puo na-uzo". He said it involuntarily that I laughed inwards and said that if only this guys know that I understood him. lol. It is indeed nice to travel to places.

I have been using heetch or yango for my taxi trips, but yesterday towards nightfall I decided on a whim to go to chic shop in Riviera and the Nigerian in me whispered to me to try out the local transport buses (Pimped J5 buses). And I speak very minimal french. see the conductor trying to overcharge me when he noticed that I am not Ivorian. haha, made sure I collected my change to the last, though i still feel he overcharged my by 100 cfa (i.e the maximum normal fare). it was nice seeing the city through unfiltered everyday life.
One thing about Ivory Coast is that the a lot foreigners, both black and whites are so free and comfortable in the country, doing business and intermarrying. unlike in Nigeria that a white is very conspicuos anywhere.

Dear all, is there any body in Abidjan from Nigeria that i can link up with, i will be travelling to Abidjan next week. Kindly indicate.
dear poster, tell me whether if it is you, will you respond to this kind of sketchy enquiry from a burner account, without details to meet a stranger just because he is Nigerian? It will do you good to state why you wish to meet and what you are coming to do and then maybe someone will respond.

My journey with Brazilian visa started January, I submitted online waited for invitation to submit hard copies till the program I wanted to attend passed. March, I reapplied with another event, this time I submitted immediately without waiting for invitation. May, immediately the event passed, I received mail from them that I should get invitation letter from the Organiniser of another event I want to attend in Brazil. I told them that I don't have any other event but will like to take vacation. I reapplied June And was invited for physical interview on July that was when my status turn to review. During the interview I was asked to provide some documents. I sent through mail but no response. I now decided to open another application.
Do you know that after I submitted hard copies my status went back to sent since July till date.

It could be because loads of people are seeking asylum immediately after getting into the country which is taking a toll on their system.
The recent ugly news about what is happening at the Sao Paulo airports could be a serious variable to explain the current impasse.

Already Turkish and Qatar airlines have established a hidden embargo on passengers coming from Sub-Saharan Africa to Sao Paulo

Thank you
But when the funds are already invested

Let’s say my uncle wants to invest for 6 months After 6 months, Liquidating his funds and withdrawing his capital and interests won’t be an issue right ? There won’t be any stories or problems
No, he will only be charged 20% of his earned interests if he decides to withdraw before 30 days. after 30 days, no issues. the only downside is that he may be limited to withdrawing 5 million per day (not so sure)

thank you, I will surely use your link

Please hope this investment is safe and this old man won’t lose his money
Hope transferring such amount of money to Stanbic IBTC mutual fund account is safe

Please sorry for all the questions, I promised to help him gather all required info. And the man is so skeptical. He doesn’t want to lose his money, he will rather just buy a house as he feels the property will appreciate over the years
The best way to ensure transparency and safety, given the amount of funds involved is that after he has signed up for his account and received his Reference number, he should ho directly to his GTBank branch with the reference number and initiate a funds transfer directly from his branch to the Account that Stanbic will provide for him. this way is rest assured

he lived abroad (USA) for 25 years and worked for the government

He recently just retired and returned home with his life savings, retirement benefits etc Now that he is old, he wants to live and grow old in Nigeria. He wanted to buy a house here in Nigeria with the money, but I advised him to do an investment first to earn something from this amount of capital.

Please if there is any investment better than Stanbic money market, please advise me
at current rates, he earns 4,406,250 naira per month.

Thank you very much

That means he has to open an account with Stanbic ? Because the funds are currently domiciled in GTBank

Can he move the funds to the Stanbic money market account at once

Please advise. Because this man is an elderly man in his late 60s and is not so tech savvy
No, he does not need to open a StanbicIBTC Account. All he needs to do is sign up using the stanbicIBTC website, he should have his BVN and means of identification handy. after he has submitted his details on stanbic website, they will reach out to him in about 2 business days with his reference number and then he will put the reference number in the transfer narration when he is transferring his money from his GTBank to the Stanbic IBTC mutual funds account so that the Stanbic team can track that the money is attached to the account bearing the reference number.
You can sign him up using my referral link

Hey guys

I contacted GT Fund Managers about investment, the gave me forms to fill and account to deposit my investment amount.

What that made me surprised is the fact that the account was a Stanbic IBTC account

Why would GTBank Fund managers be using an account with Stanbic IBTC ?

Does this mean the fund I’m investing with them is going to be re-invested by them into Stanbic Money Market Investment ?? This is weird
It is normal. All mutual funds select another bank to act as the funds custodian to minimize misuse of investor funds. For example, I use StanbicIBTC, But I make my deposits to a UBA account

CareerRe: Indians Taking Over Jobs In Oil And Gas’, PENGASSAN Raises Alarm by Obinnau(m): 3:59pm On Sep 08, 2024
Covid19lockdown:
It will not be too long countries will start banning Indians. Come to UK, they have taken over care jobs, warehouse, driving and other sectors. In 20yrs to come, if nothing is done I guarantee you Indians might take over UK.

Indians knows how to dominate. Is because of them mostly UK ban care and students dependents. One person will be coming, he or she will carry the entire family. FG need to look into this asap.
Please explain to me how what you just said is different from what the Yorubas in Lagos are telling our Igbos. Or are Igbos not bring their families to Lagos. Let us put aside that we are all Nigerians, and Lagos was once a capital city. But the same can also be said about the relationship of UK and Commonwealth countries.
If they are dominating, adapt and be like them.
