blackpanthar:
This is so good to see, finally you have tasted this level of success and many more awaits you even billions sir.
but....
Pls don't celebrate yet.
you see, in this tinubu era,
These are not the days where 1m MEANS ANYTHING unless you invest or multiply it wisely.

Thank God you have a wonderful lady to advice you. But you don't need to publicize it here if you are not seeking for ideas or counsel.

Right now you need lots of practical wisdom and more frugality and strong tough decisions to make you enter the next millions very fast.

I wish you all the best o. grin
Thank you sir. I need counsels, that is why I'm here.

FamilyI Just Made My First Million Naira. Wow! Advise Me by Pentagon007(op): 1:23am On Apr 16, 2024
Congratulations to me guys. I have just made my first million naira. I made this money through savings from the teaching work that i do. I am excited to have achieved this milestone. By this, I have become a millionaire before 30 Lol. I am 29 currently. I know that to a lot of people here, it is nothing but to me, it is quite a milestone. Especially if i reminisce back to when I finished from university, i was so confused and did not know what direction to go. I was so broke and had no job. I have always wanted to be successful, have a good business and build a comfortable life. So, when i eventually got a job, with the help of my sweetheart and advises from her, I had to sacrifice some things and was very disciplined with my spendings before i could come up with this amount. I intend to save some money, then learn a business and go into it. So what did i do? Whenever i receive my salary, i save first and spend from what remains. So guys, do you think i can realize my plan and how did you feel when you made your first million?

RomanceRe: She'd Be 31 Soon This Month, Looking For A Life Partner by Pentagon007: 12:06am On Apr 16, 2024
A lady single at that age is a bedsheet size red flag. You can't tell me she has not been getting suitors. It is most likely that she has been too self absorbed that she didn't realize that time is going. From all she has started, my hindsight tells me she is only after Wedding ring, Kids, Japa to abroad with the kids with the help of connections and that is all. The man will be left behind.

I like the quality of the doors. They look foreign though.
Then about the tiles, i think it is too bright in contrast with the wall colors(even regardless of a bright color walls). I think something of black tiles with some tint of white would have been better.

I live in a low income West African country. I will snap their road and upload here so that you can how how roads and sidewalks look like. I believe all these HIGH so called side walks Nigerians built are tactics to inflate the Cost of road constructions. Via tons of cement purchase.

Is language a barrier there
Language is a bit of a barrier, i think that explains part of the reasons why there are low population of Nigerians in Bénin as compared to Ghana. But there are quite a good population of Nigerians here and most are into Businesses such as machine and auto parts, electronics etc. But when one comes here, as time goes on, the person begins to pick the language, word by word, just gradually until he is fluent enough to do basic communication.

hie. if you dont mind my asking, which close-by african country would you advise one to relocate to?
République Du Bénin. I cannot speak of any other country but Benin is quite a stable country, the laws, rules and regulations apply very much here. I do not have to worry about electricity or water. Electricity supply is 247 and portable water also. My salary is in Franc Cefa which is much higher currency now than Naira. (1000 cefa= 1800 naira)
RomanceRe: Best Decision You Made That Changed Your Life by Pentagon007: 8:59pm On Dec 17, 2023
My best decision was leaving my comfort zone in Nigeria to a close-by African country, Now I'm working and earning salary in a better currency than Naira and learning to forming strategic relationship/friendship with people. Today my situation is better than 1 year ago when i was in Nigeria and jobless.

Tanks so much.
I appreciate.
The only thing that is making me feel uncomfortable coming there, is the language barrier. Am afraid of it
I understand your fears. Even i myself I'm not yet good in the french language but am picking up little by little, enough for basic communication. I am only 1 year here but i will pick up more as time goes on. If you are determined to succeed, dont let the fear of language barrier to discourage you. Honestly, you wont know what chances you have been missing until one crosses that Nigerian border.

Love800:
Bro pls hw is life in benin republic?
Is the place ok?
I plan going there to cook and sell nigerian foods.
The country is stable and the currency (Cefa) has more value than Naira for the past 5 years. 1000 cefa gives you 1500 naira. Mind you, during the recent Naira vs Dollar wahala, the value of the Cefa increased so much that 1000 cefa gives 1900 naira. There is 247 electricity. Nobody uses a generator. There is portable water, any time you turn your tap, water rushes out. Light and water and security is guaranteed! The Nigerians here are mostly into business and the population of Nigerians here is appreciable. There is also Nigerian owned English schools where Nigerian business men enrol their Children. I work in one and the pay is very good especially if you exchange it to Naira. Considering the cooking business you want to establish here. It is a profitable business here and there are only few places cooking and selling Nigeria foods. It is a hot cake here if u cool well. There are other people into such business but there is still chance for more people to come in. Due to the nature of the work most of our people do here(Business-spare parts and auto parts, electronics, Phones) Most families do not have chance to be cooking upandan, so most people buy thier lunch and dinner from the Nigerian food shops. I just had my dinner in one. You will surely succeed if you cook well and relate well with other nija people. Cooks are cashing out.

TravelAirpeace Granted Permit To Fly To U.K by Pentagon007(op):
Allen Onyema, the Chairman and CEO of Nigeria’s largest carrier, Air Peace Nigeria Limited, has disclosed that Air Peace has secured Foreign Carrier Operator Permit (FCOP), which allows airlines from other regions to fly to Europe and Third Country
Operator Permit (TCO-UK) that enables airlines to operate to UK.
Onyema said that to obtain these permits, the airline went through stringent audits to ensure that it met the high safety status, capacity and standard conditions; so, it is now qualified to fly to the United Kingdom.
Onyema who disclosed this in a press
statement said “We obtained these permits that qualify us to fly to UK. Before you obtain these approvals, they will audit you very well. You have to go through stringent audit, which we passed. We obtained the permit last week.” Onyema said that contrary to what many in the industry think; that Nigerian airlines have capacity, noting that for the first time
in years Nigerian airlines are ordering brand new aircraft from the manufacturers, reiterating that Air Peace made firm order of 33 aircraft and purchase right of 17 aircraft, which brings the airline’s total order to 50. These include 15 Boeing 737 MAX 8 and MAX 10, firm order of 13 Embraer E195-E2 and purchase right of 17 of the same aircraft type and firm order of five Embraer E175 and delivery of these aircraft
would start early next year in addition to the five brand new Embraer E195-E2 already delivered.
advertisement
The Air Peace Chairman also said that Ibom Air had ordered 10 new Airbus A220 and Overland Airways ordered for six Embraer
E175, which delivery has already started, remarking that Nigerian carriers cannot be accused of lacking capacity. Still, the government should do everything possible to
support the airlines because they provide thousands of jobs for Nigeria, serve as catalyst for economic development of the country and also contribute to the nation’s GDP.
“The jobs one small Nigerian airline providesare more than the jobs provided by all foreign airlines in Nigeria, so the federal
government should deem it very important supporting Nigerian airlines,” he said He identified the challenges that beset domestic airline operations in Nigeria, said
the major challenge is the lack of transit facilities at the international airports in the country.
Fish sellers say 'enough is enough' as prices skyrocket in Sagamu
Boko Haram kills 40 farmers in Yobe over taxes
EFCC changes tactics, bans night sting
operation.
Onyema, who commended Nigerians and the federal government for their role in making
the airline a success as it tuned nine last week, stated that not having transit facilities at the Murtala Muhammed International Airport (MMIA), Lagos and the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport,
Abuja has blunted the competitiveness of
Nigerian airlines. He said that Air Peace operates to destinations in West and Central Africa, so,
it ought to bring passengers from Douala, Banjul, Accra, Lome, Monrovia, Dakar, Freetown and others to its hub in Lagos and from Lagos airlift them to India, China, South Africa, Jeddah and other long-haul destinations. “But unfortunately, we don’t have a transit
facility where these passengers will stay until they board their next flight and Nigeria Immigration Service and Nigeria Customs Service are yet to segment this class of passengers who in other countries are made to wait in the transit facility on
the airside until they are due to fly again. “Currently, Immigration treats them like other passengers whose final destination is Nigeria and are expected to obtain visas and
follow other procedures like other
passengers arriving in Nigeria. What is
usually obtained is that as long as the
passengers are not leaving the airport, they
do not need visa because they are in transit.
“If Air Peace can bring these passengers
from neighbouring countries and take them
to farther destinations, the airline will do
well on the long-haul routes. It is these
kinds of policies that inhibit the success of
Nigerian airlines. For example, the Katoka International Airport, Accra, has such
transit facility and we take our passengers
from there to Monrovia. For Nigerian
airlines to compete and benefit from the
Single Air Transport Market (SAATAM), we
must upgrade our airports to include transit
facilities. Immigration should adopt a new
policy that recognizes transit passengers.
“What we need now is airport
infrastructure, not a national carrier. If
supported by the government, Nigerian
airlines can provide the needed capacity. What the airlines need is the support which government in other countries give their airlines.
advertisement
We need transit facilities at the Lagos and
Abuja airports. Some airports in African
countries have these facilities and that is
why airlines that operate from those
airports are excelling. Suppose we have to
maximise the benefits of air transport and
the fact that we are the most travelling
people in Africa. In that case, we must have
to provide the infrastructure that will
enable our airlines to benefit from flight
operations. It is only then we shall begin to
benefit from SAATAM,” he said.
