Poor infrastructure
Security
Lack of identification database (NIN)
If Nigeria can get these three things right, companies will start coming. The human capital is in abundant and people are ready to work.

Bro I'm sorry to say, but you're a very stupid person. You can see clearly that foreign interests and investors are running away and avoiding Nigeria, but all you're worried about is who will complain about it. Does that negate the fact that this country is on steady retrogression? Nigeria used to be the choice location for foreign interests in Africa so much so that other African countries started to envy us. Today, no one wants to come close to us but it's okay by you as long as it's your guy that's running the country aground. One thing that I'm happy about is that all of us will bear the brunt, except you travel out, na all of us go suffer am last last

Who da hell in their right mind would bring their multi billion dollars businese to Nigeria?


Country full with terrorits, murdering herdsmen, no steady electricity, fraudsters, corrupt leaders and citizens.

I hear Nigerians where even offering a fake negative covid 19 test results without testing if you bribe them, Imagine that.

---At least Burger King is coming to Nigeria---

It's been in SA for 8 years now.

Which reasonable investor will choose a nation whose national assembly is entertaining discuss on how to implement a data base for Cow?
When the youths of a nation remain docile, the crooked and expired politicians will continue to seat on their destiny.
In the case of Nigeria, even another 100 years more will not bring the youths to speak in one voice.
That's why IPOB is calling for regional revolution. For us in SE, there's no going back until we are free from Nigeria, and nothing can stop us from that either in peace or in pieces

TMKsouth:
This was announced a year or two ago, already. Guess its newsworthy coz Twitter went to Ghana.

It is exactly. It is called perspective. When an aircraft falls out of the sky all previous incidents are uncovered for patterns that suggest cause. It is only the unintelligent that views things like these in isolation.

I actually prefer Burger King to McDonalds, they have huge burgers!

dennisworld1:
And nigeria have the highest customers in africa. We should be boycotting all this site let them do their things alone since they ignore us

Amazon opened its first office in Johannesburg back in 2015. You only complaining now? Now its just putting up logistics HQ in Cape Town.

Illiterates like Buhari and his team are not aware that these are the entities that create the jobs in the western world. A stupid dumb person like Lie Muhammed will soon open his mouth that looks like expired ashawo toto with extra mileage to make noise that Endsars caused this. It's even worse the president lacks the mental ability to hold conversation with 9 years old girl or boy, but mentally sound enough to elect terrorists into his government.

na only u go suffer not me and you.... Mr investor

Anthony0094:
Everybody is avoiding Nigeria lyk plague

Thanks to our darling daddy

Nigeria isn't a safe place for business to thrive.
Where in Nigeria can Amazon setup their facility, is Lagos that is infested with crazy agberos and very bad roads or rivers where all their workers will be kidnapped .

Thunder fire Nigeria !!!!!! Imagine if we had Amazon HQ here, Mayorall or people that book things on Amazon won't wait for 30days to get their parcel through shipping anymore!

Xilsbridalhouse:

YES!!!! They are the major problem of Nigeria!!! Travel and see how much Nigerians are being hated by foreigners due to the high fraudulent activities going on within and outside.
I do not expect any sane foreigner to invest in Nigeria! Don’t blame the government, blame yourselves.


Stop justifying your illicit actions.

Shut up! Yahoo boys are the cause of poor road networks, poor infrastructures,poor security system, terrorism, multiple taxation, inflation, weaken Naira to dollar, corrupt politicians and so many negative vices in this shit hole.. Go read your books kid.

We missed out on this again, Giant of Africa by population

Missed out,where you expecting a fortune 500 country to come and open shop in a country run by buhari

Kubernetes:
North Africans are also doing good as south Africa, but their citizens aren't worried.
Botswana, Rwandan etc are also not worried and causing themselves.
Nigerians will surely do the opposite.

Nigga those countries dey claim anything?. Why u go cumot begin talk dis kind tin. First of all na twitter now its amazon, bros u no dey smell fiiiiish!!?. Reason am ooh

Reference:


Nigeria is the preeminent importer of goods and services on the continent. It cannot make sense to locate a logistics company outside our customs borders. It will simply make their goods more expensive to sell here.

They know this logic but the overwhelming challenges this country faces must have tilted their opinion away.

This is practically what we call the cost of doing business in Nigeria which Amazon will face as well. Nigeria is seriously hostile to investment. There are few things beyond the large but tragically poor population that attracts.

If we are not careful all future investment will amount to more than the production of diapers and 'durex'....if you catch the sad drift.

Burgers fit for a king indeed . McD has tiny burgers dude, their chips are awesome though. But don't eat them cold, yuck!

bless you, if only we can establish our own industries and companies from clothing to food etc we have the biggest market it will go round and imagine how the international market will see us.

THERE IS SOMETHING COOKING WHICH THE WORLD CLASS BUSINESS MOGULS KNOW WHICH YOU DONT KNOW.
NO ONE IS SITING BUSINESS IN NIGERIA ANYMORE,ITS POSSIBLE THEY KNOW A THING ABOUT THE INEVITABLE BREAK UP OF NIGERIA

EmekaBlue:
APC only knows how to borrow from China no foreign investment since the scammers headed by the tribalistic dullard from Niger republic who migrated to daura many years ago came into power

Maybe china will open their African loan repayment Headquarters in Nigeria

and how to blame past administrations for their failures. When there's no excuse for failure

With the onset of AFCTA, customs borders are largely irrelevant...

Nonetheless, I agree with the ease of doing business argument. One of the world’s largest logistics companies (Agility, which is operational in over 100 countries worldwide) has been working on a logistics hub in Nigeria, and it’s been torture for them. I think it is unrealistic for Nigerians to think that every major multinational should be headquartered in Nigeria. There are so many (and sometimes peculiar) considerations in locating an office, and no nation (not even the US) will always come out it trumps in these decisions. Nigeria should primarily concentrate on creating a great business enabling environment for NIGERIANS! Attracting foreigners should simply be a ‘natural’ byproduct thereto.

Liar Mohammed right now

Why would lai cry? He has stolen millions of dollars from Nigeria and has a million fun things he could be doing at any moment. He is definitely not thinking about this.

Mah niggah

Not only huge,but more tasty than McD's

With Buhari and his group on power, who will want to site a new important business office in Nigeria.
