Film class /Film Institute

Movies and Documentaries offer a wide range of knowledge and insight into various subject and histories. This is my most preferred form of business, Because getting certified by NBTE you could run a film based type of school, carrying out explanation on Zoom, While your student write a thesis for graduation.
it is an advanced form of study and quite lucrative

Ali express/ eBay office
Many Nigerians don't know how or find it cumbersome to use the Ali Express and eBay platform for buying things online

Bitcoin payment platform

Bitcoin is the money of the future, However Nigeria don't yet have a wide range point of sale terminal that allows the payment of goods and services via Bitcoin,
It would help revive our economy and provide the option of a payment service without a third party cumbersome.
Let's create one.

Water delivery to houses

Take the meruwa jobs from them get a truck water pump and a tank and deliver water to houses.

A Big drum for 500/1k

Re: Lucrative Businesses That People Don't Know by Psiyohos(op):
A ONE FOR ALL DRIVER'S LICENSE

You are stopped by the cops and They ask for your
driver's license
tint permit
road worthiness etc.
anything to find ways of taking money from you.
If there was a singular card like the NiMC card or cowry card that made it for the deaf and dumb of this country to drive without fear of meaningless talk and harassment.

The cops just need a cowry card like money checker to check your card, seeing it in order and have a nice day. once your card expires you get an email and SmS notification for clearance which you can do yourself online or via USSD

The card would be handed through the windows, placed on the machine, check, Bye bye. No talk no unnecessary questions, no harassment, and you are good to go anywhere in this country.

See if the state government can buy into this idea

Open University for Prisoners .

Take advantage of a waiting workforce and offering them chance at a better life, by the improvement of themselves, updating of their Cv while in prison.
you can offer an open University or a form of Distance learning for them, with an ease of payment that is attractive to their families.
and with nothing but time on their hands, Who's to say they couldn't come out with at least 2 PhDs.

it's possible.

A Designer

Do you know that from the comfort of your house you could run a multi million business of just drawing your own version of ideas, things and business model,
Snap it and creating a PDF like Brochure and sending them to companies.
From Cloth, Handbags, Cameras, chairs anything at all.
And you could even run an office of friends and kindred spirit, Nothing is too weird, nothing is absurd from ergonomics to flat out new innovation the entire world of thoughts is your playing ground.

And once again, It might not be today, But someone will definitely pick up your idea either for the product or a movie set design. Keep drawing, Keep imagining. it's money.

Aircraft Musuem

We have a lot of abandoned aircrafts at the Muritala Mohammed Airport, Instead of allowing it get decrepit and run down. There is a business in cleaning them up and using them as museums, and school trips for school children.

Many of these pupils will have their first opportunity of being in an airplane, knowing the model of the plane and have their first taste and inspiration at being future pilots and air hosts.

There are just there, they can still be of some use.

Spaceship Set

Nigeria have never made a space movie, isn't that sad? I don't think in the whole of West Africa even. You could change that by building the set of a space ship using some part block, others wood and it becomes the archetypal space ship which would serve as a set for the shooting of space movies, which could earn you a lot from ambitious directors
Plus t can also second as a museum for children to celebrate May 4, and comic con.

You could make dough for a long time.

A botanical Garden
This is absolutely my favorite type of business as it is very cheap, easy to run and maintain, buy a plot or two and create a botanical garden,
Your only cost would be the planting of flowers and shrubs which wouldnt cost above a hundred thousand.
You create a pavilion of some sort using wood and slate roofing and make it a venue is Village Towns meeting. and you could be making 50 thousand naira every Saturday and Sunday.

some duck, goose and peacocks and you could make money from hangouts even on weekdays.
And you get to join in the fun.

Sweet life

Wild Fauna Restoration

You'll need to relate an NGO meet a state governor that understand the importance of restoring, culturing and cultivation of wild fauna. You could culture cat fish and tilapia to post juvenile restore the wild fish cultivation in the local rivers.
cane rats in the forest and planting of food trees
to restore the bounty of the forest
this is important as Nigeria descend into famine, we have to invest in engendering the substance of our wild and free food. people should be able fish in the local rivers and eat free food like our ancestors used to enjoy.


A business for the future, one for the ages.

Sachet Ash

the importance of ash as a cleanse in the health of man can't be over emphasized, like activated charcoal ash could be sold in either in sachet form or caplet.
It is important to consume ash at least once a month, There's a business in selling the final end of the wood.

No activated charcoal is mostly sold in pharmacy either in tin or caplet forms. it's just a neater, more fine, and better treated version of the local one used for those with food poisoning or drug overdose.

Subsidized Air Travel

I would expect Air Peace and Azman Air to remodel the interior of their plane for an all economic seated flight.
Taking advantage of the recent increased risk of road transport to really boost their business.
Get a plane that can carry 200- 300 passengers
for 50- 100k
From Lagos to key locations like
Abuja
Jalingo
Enugu
Kano
At least 1.5 mil per flight twice a day, and see steady influx of passengers and profits.

Recommending Sea travel
Still on the dangerous nature of our roads at present, We have to remember that along the coastal lines of Lagos lie
Port Harcourt
Akwa Ibom
Warri
Anambra
River and
Calabar

We could tell people that instead of using the ferry for cruising alone in Lekki and environs, We could commercialize and use it for transporting people in a less hazardous journey
to
Ibeno
Port Harcourt
Calabar et. al
Get some life jackets for safety and make cool money

School of Home economics
This isn't a business more like a form of social functioning, You get a group of housewives, either from church or organization and do a joint cooking, baking, and educating of yourselves
with a daily donation that buys the stuffs or ingredients, at the end you could also share books and movies.
You could use a school premises or a church during the weekdays.
It's a way of organizing and educating women and young girls, while providing a social functioning. Then you could seek for funds and support from outside source.

surely it will involve a lot of bureaucratic bottlenecks, but your best bet would be the FAAN Office, writing them see if they buy into the idea, Insurance Incase of any vandalism, camera set up for saboteurs, and patience for approval.
I don't think any license should be involved you aren't flying the plane.

Moreover, it's a dead abandoned aircraft waiting to be scraped , just that Nigerian government officials are innovative and open to IGR and yet screaming of poor revenue.
