When a company pays you dividend, you receive cash.
When another company gives you bonus shares; if you sell those shares, what do you get? Is it not cash that you get?
Some people have received millions of units from of Oando's share redistribution bonus. And that is cash if they decide to sell.

Princkez:
please why did FBNH mentioned they will use the realised funds for recapitalisation and expansion

HesInMe:
If you're going to make such a wild claim -- that free, quality university education is impossible -- at least tell us why. Because several countries appear to be able to pull off the impossible; examples include Norway, Brazil, Egypt, Germany, the Philippines, and Turkey.

Which suggests that the issue is not really feasibility; it's priority.

The Current Litigant Claim: Mishandling of Client InvestmentsThis historical transaction forms the foundation of the active ₦10.29 trillion lawsuit filed by Dr. Darlington Amadasu against Access Holdings.The Offence Claimed: Amadasu alleges that when Access Bank absorbed Intercontinental Bank, it intentionally or negligently "wiped out" or severely mismanaged high-yield legacy investments belonging to long-term depositors.The Discrepancy: The core of the current legal battle rests on the allegation that Access Bank purposefully buried or undervalued legacy merchant banking obligations during the transition to protect its own corporate balance sheet.In short, while Intercontinental Bank’s management was found guilty in London of siphoning depositors' money, Access Bank’s "offence" in the eyes of the public and critics was utilizing heavy political leverage and outstanding multi-billion naira debts to swallow its own creditor

londonerr:
You are very correct.

The ₦10.29 Trillion Legacy Asset Battle behind the scenes in the courtrooms, the bank is fighting an existential corporate litigation battle that has heavily influenced its financial impairment strategies.

The Conflict: Access Holdings is defending a massive lawsuit filed at the Federal High Court by Dr. Darlington Amadasu.

Amadasu claims that legacy multi-billion naira investments dating back to the defunct Intercontinental Merchant Bank—which Access Bank acquired years ago—were mishandled.

He is demanding a staggering ₦10.29 trillion in accumulated value and damages.

The Power Dynamics: While Access Holdings has publicly labeled the claims as vastly overstated, the sheer scale of the multi-trillion naira legal threat has heavily weighed on boardroom discussions regarding risk management, financial provisioning, and cost optimization.

Access is very much cheap, with or without FBN.
I just pray it stays below N25 for quite some time.

Based on current financial trajectories and reported results, the estimated Earnings Per Share (EPS) for Lasaco Assurance Plc by the end of the 2026 financial year is projected to be between ₦0.45 and ₦0.65.

This estimate represents a strong operational recovery following the full-year 2025 audited performance, where the company recorded a negative EPS of (25.27) kobo due to heavy claims expenses.

Come and set factory and run with which electricity which is the first major thing

What has changed is that the producing countries have realized how much they are losing and being short changed by middlemen and chocolate producers who do not grow any Cocoa..

If Nigeria is not able to do anything, about it, fine. But CIV and Ghana are determined to do something about it because Cocoa provides significant revenue for their budget

deathwing:
Didn't they say the expansion would be commissioned in Q1 2027? Who is expecting it to reflect this year?

mikeapollo:
It is not banning export by fiat.
Maybe that is what Nigeria is trying to do.
But CIV and Ghana are planning schemes that would enable them buy all the beans from the local farmers, supply enough to local manufacturers, and then be in a position to determine or control the price of the remainder to be exported abroad. This would cut off the middlemen.
Currently, local producers don't get enough of the beans as everything is exported and the countries are not even able to determine the price; meanwhile middlemen are making much profits because they pre-finance the farmers and then export the beans abroad for huge profits.

mikeapollo:
What is important is for the farmer to know the price on the international market and willingness/capacity of the local buyers to pay exactly or something very close to that. The local buyers in this instant would be chocolate producers, manufacturers, and even govt agencies. If this can be done consistently and fairly, the local industry would be better for it.

Oasisblue:
FTN Cocoa on full bid. I think it is riding the waves of current news of the Abuja declaration on cocoa processing. I hope West African leaders can stay the course because Oyinbo chocolate industry will fight dirty o. Unfortunately, we lack the national solidarity. Some Nigerians would support foreign interests against their country based on bias.

But Ote$ has been winning some cowboy battles in FBN na?

Seun2019:
Today, I read an "official statement" from Nigeria Society of Physiotheraphy where it was stated that the late Mary Habila was not a physiotheraphist because she did not belong to the society.

Please see here: https://www.nairaland.com/8710907/mary-habila-not-registered-physiotherapist

This statement is not only misleading, it is grossly incorrect.

The essence of this topic is therefore not to defend the deceased (or Dave Umahi, the Minister of Works) but to enlighten those who may have been misled by the statement and state what the law says.

In Nigeria, you do not need to belong to the Nigeria Society of Physiotherapy (NSP) to legally practice physiotherapy in Nigeria.

Apart from being a graduate, you only need to be registered and licensed by the Medical Rehabilitation Therapists Board of Nigeria (MRTB).

MRTB is the federal government agency empowered by law to regulate the profession and issue practicing licenses.

Below are the four steps to legally practice physiotheraphy in Nigeria.

1. Earn a Degree: Hold a Bachelor of Physiotherapy (B.PT or BMR) or a Doctor of Physiotherapy (DPT) from an accredited university.

2. Complete Internship: Undergo a mandatory one-year clinical internship at an accredited hospital.

3. Register with the MRTB: Complete your registration and obtain your legal license.

4. Complete NYSC: Fulfill the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) requirement, if applicable.

So, you do not need to be a member of Nigerian Society of Physiotheraphy (NSP)

NSP is just a professional association and labor embodiment for physiotherapists in Nigeria.

It is nothing but a pressure group that defends the rights of therapists, provides continuing education, and offers professional indemnity.

Its membership is voluntary, though it is recommended for career networking and professional growth.

NSP is just like Nigerian Medical Association (NMA) which is another pressure group. You do not need to belong to NMA before you can practice medicine in Nigeria.

Thank you

They probably don't need to panic. They can become investors till next year. If Q1 is sustained, can we see EPS of N25 by year end?
