Happy birthday to you “A-Jenny baby” as fondly called by her hubby Goodluck .😂

I miss Johnson’s sha.

Very strategic move “ALICASH” , may Almighty continue to keep you for us .

You see eeh , when people castigate this man for being a monopolistic businessman, I tell them go run a business if you think it’s easy , you must be a genius to operate at certain levels and that’s what Dangote is right now .

Cheers to him .

May God almighty continue to bless Alhaji Aliko Dangote 🙏🏽

Moyo my guy , you’re doing great things , wishing you the best in your political career.

First I call on my God , then go play snooker and have some drinks .

The fact is , these challenges always come to pass only that they may take sometime .

Agwu camp of Enugu state that year , first time I ever saw Okpa, thought it was moi moi , I grabbed 2 wraps only to give them away as I didn’t like the taste but later fell in love with those ones at 9th mile .


My experience at Ezeagwu LGA was memorable, UmuMba ndiagwu fed me well with fresh bananas and fresh palm wine 😋

My comment here isn’t about Peter Obi but a humble plea to Northern elites.

Please my Arewa elites you need to constitute a commission as a matter of urgency to reduce or eradicate poverty in the North, just look at the living conditions of this family, so are many living in kano and other northern states .

We need free technical schools to enable the youths acquire certain skills that are more relevant in today’s Nigeria .

I’m a southerner, I work with northerners and I can confirm the youths are very hardworking and committed to whatever they put their minds to , though not quite educated, they are very resourceful.

God bless Arewa !
God bless Nigeria !

Nice development but why is freight cost from Onne port to major ports around the world much higher than Apapa and Tincan ports ? This alone is killing business in that port, sometimes it’s just $700 at Apapa port but $2,000 at Onne port , it’s logical to direct all shipments to Apapa given the cheaper freights.

I hope the Nigeria shipper council and related agencies can look into this .

Aleem26:
Get a copy of OBL from your colleague and edit it to your commodity as he won’t confirm it just to have him Boss

Op I will advise you don’t do this as every BL has a number and this can be verified on some websites; the shipper , the commodity, even the fob price can be displayed, your prospect may see you as being fraudulent and you know what that means.

My suggestion will be to work with an existing exporter who already has confirmed and past BLs, you can have the exporter ship on your behalf in this case you have your company name in the Shipper’s section, for example, if your company is A and that of existing exporter is B , then on the shipper’s section of the BL you will have shipper company B “on behalf or on account of company A”

This being your first shipment you can always use it as your reference for future prospects.

Or you can bear it all open and tell the prospect you haven’t made any shipments yet but you’re assuring him/her of utmost professionalism in your transaction .

I’m sure one of these will work .

As per getting clients , yes it’s the hardest part especially coming from Nigeria .

You explore social media , website, trade shows to get leads .

All the best .

Na why countries no want Nigeria airlines for their airports be this

Early last year I was motivated to start a beer distribution business, I did my research bought the land and constructed the building.

Unfortunately for me, I didn't know someone is selling just few blocks to where I acquired the land. Although the competitor was a small scale but I do not want to compete because there is also a coke/pepsi depot right next to it.

I've decided to go into manufacturing but I'm not sure what I could do. I need ideas and possible the required capital that would start it.

Please no pure water factory suggestions.

Thank you.

25-yr-old Ubulu Uku King Returns Home After Years studying Abroad amidst jubilation

Onyemaechi, Onwordi Ibori Ubulu, others said Obi Home Coming is a blessing

The 25 years old Obi of Ubulu Uku kingdom Obi Chukwuka Noah Akaeze has returned home after studying abroad .

The Obi was received at the Asaba International Airport on Thursday by thousands of his people who stormed the airport with jubilation to receive him .

The Commissioner for Technical Education Hon Joan Onyemaechi , Senior Special Assistant on Youth Mobilization to the Delta State Governor Hon James Onwordi Endurance known as Ibori Ubulu among others described the Obi home coming as a blessing to Ubulu Uku kingdom.

They noted that the celebration of the Obi is as a result of the love the people has for him considering how impactful he has been to the kingdom .

The obi while applauding the people of ubulu uku for the tremendous support said he will always protect the interest of the kingdom.

He also thanked the immediate past governor of Delta State Sen Ifeanyi Okowa and the current governor Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori for the support over the years .

Obi Chukwuka Noah Akaeze was crowned king of Ubulu-Uku kingdom and was giving staff of Office by the Delta State state government at the age of 18 in 2016.

Thereafter he traveled abroad to continue his education being a lover of education.

Eight years later, he has returned back to rule his people .

He was just 18 when his father the late king became a victim of murder in 2016.

Ubulu-Uku is located in Aniocha South Local Government area of Delta State

It doesn't mean fuel would be cheap

Because there is no subsidy anymore, the NNPC would have to search for money for repairs and maintenance of the refineries. And at the end of the day, all that costs money, and all that would be added to the cost paid by end consumers.

The potential good news is that the refineries would work this time. No subsidy, no free money. Anyone doing sabotage is affecting NNPC's ability to make
profits, and by extension, their salaries. Also, it would be cheaper to buy in Nigeria...than it would be importing from abroad with scarce forex.

But fuel would, as the experts say, cost just N70 less than the current price. It won't suddenly drop to N200 or below

The biggest good news is that it will reduce the pressure on Fx demand thereby strengthening our Naira .

Also the manufacturers can have better access to Fx to import raw materials to run their factories and this will in turn create more jobs and also increase our GDP.

Additionally , the supply chain sector will experience significant boom as a result of increased manufacturing activities.

There are many positive effects this can have on the economy generally if properly and sincerely pursued.

May God help Nigeria.

DeLaRue:
Government doesn't control black market price. It is up to the buyer and seller to deal at whatever price suits them.

The government only has direct influence on the I & E window which is around N780. Big companies and many others who have legitimate reasons can buy dollars from banks.

Many of those desperately buying at any price on the black market are using hundreds of billions stolen under Mr Buhari's government. They can't come out openly to buy through official channels.

If they like, they should push the black market rate to N1500, it is up to them.

The government can only focus on the I & E market.

I doubt you are into International business or manufacturing to have said this .

Do you know the amount of Fx request on the official queue of many commercial banks that CBN hasn’t been able to fulfill?
Manufacturers and importers wait weeks and months to get Fx via the official window and this is killing businesses, to avoid such delays, they resort to the black market and I don’t blame them for doing so because whether they are able to source their raw materials or not , fixed costs such as salaries, rent , interest rates, etc ,must be paid , so it’s still their losses to wait perpetually for CBN .

We need freight rails please.

I remembered Nigerians that absconded during Russia 2014 World Cup !! Body tell them before they cried for self deportation


I wonder why people hate USA that have done so much for the world ….

My Brother I’m really surprised why people hate such a country where people from many nationalities prosper irrespective of their colours , at least I know people who are doing very well in US but I can’t say same of Russia or China .

ikeno:
Waiting in queue for more than 3hr to buy fuel and when it gets to your turn they said fuel has finished.

Happened to me today , I'm still in pains

What a "sunny smile"

Sure, most are dead already.

SpecialAdviser:
I know this may sound funny but honestly I don't know why I always found Obidient supporters very colorful and attractive in their rallies unlike others.

OBIDIENTS are mostly middle class who are literates and can comfortably afford 3 square meal and more but you see others like the ones who held 200 man march for their grandpa looking severely deprived yet they don't want to break loose from the stronghold of these old politicians who mismanaged Nigeria.

Very senseless talk from a senseless analyst. Why didn't he ask Wike to leave the time Atiku left? so we would have seen if there would still be PDP as a national party in 2023.

I feel irritated when I see people who can't even win a ward in their constituency, coming out to say nonsense against Wike. A man who stood with audacity and conquered federal might when it tried to meddle in Rivers politics! A man who has the loudest opposition voice amongst Southern politicians! A man who has made the whole of Nigeria to regard the voice of the south especially Rivers State! If we had 7 of Wike in the south, would those fulanis not treat the south as Royalty?

Then one idiot who is not worth to be in the room where men are mentioned, would come out and start spewing trash against Wike!

Ungreatful Bush pig!

Funny enough , he just left APC to PDP few weeks back , you can imagine these set of people.

Spot on , i have had police help me tow my faulty vehicle on the high way to a mechanic without asking for anything, I personally offered them money for their help but they refused, I was so shocked .

One of them is my friend till tomorrow, I call him for a sit out whenever I'm in Ikare, Ondo state.

Some of them could be bad but whole lot are still very compassionate.

If you are condescending towards them I see no reason they will treat you with respect, moreso, no matter how much right you've got don't take laws into your hands .

#policeisyourfriend

It's quite obvious Buhari has made things very difficult for Tinubu.

And the other fellow looks like Honourable Dan of flatmate , hope he's not as crafty as Dan?


Back to the topic...the energy is massive , who would have thought Obi will go this far .

What's Okowa of Delta state doing with all the federal allocation, I don't see any considerable projects from him ...please someone should point me to his achievements.
