We need men with capacity.
Managing Nigeria will require more than being good.

Exactly. I’ll take a man with brains or ability who is not necessarily good (in quote) to even a saint who is incompetent especially when it comes to running a country. Unfortunately, we have continually lacked people competent enough to take Nigeria where she belongs

You and Mega wey be methuselah for NGX and una dey struggle with what happened to Dangote flour. is it not that una just dey envy Alhaji?

That means you are a learner on ngx matter
I participated in alhaji sugar and flour ipo
So I have no envy over his business. As of then I wanted 20k of sugar and was only given 3 k plus. I was the first person here that called out scam on Dangote food as the rice company did not exist. And later sec proved me right. I have his cement
I am not blind investor.My only problem is his exploitative pricing in his products to Nigerians as he usually control the largest segment of the sector he is involved
That is why flour, juice.,automobile rice businesses of his failed or not performing

If you dig deep, you may find out that the man's ethnicity and religion are the source of their apathy.

Because of the corruption in Nigeria, being good, honest, sincere and truthful with integrity, is more important that just having ''capacity''.
The so-called ''capacity'' can be used to do the wrong things! Thieves also have ''capacity''!

Again, men of capacity are not necessarily scarce; what we lack are men who are sincere, have integrity and truthfulness to lead and do what is right for the country!
Even if men of capacity are scarce, we can still find a few ones to appoint in strategic areas and get the job done!

You are wrong. Men of capacity are very scarce in our political space and that is why we are where we are today.

SEC did not call it scam, thereby proving you right.

You use too much gutter words and you are full of too much insults. You should be toning down. If you are so old, then you should be wise

Nigeria is in the situation it finds itself today partly because of the harsh economic policies introduced under Jagaban’s administration. He needs to adopt a more compassionate approach, ease the burden on the masses, and ensure that the people feel the positive impact of governance. Economic reforms should not come at the expense of the people’s welfare; leadership must balance difficult decisions with empathy, social protection, and a genuine commitment to the well-being of citizens.

Stockpromoter:
Nsempa, Streetivestor2 and other serious investors, the game is changing.

The era of buying fundamentally strong stocks and simply waiting for years for growth may be fading. The secondary market is increasingly becoming a trader’s game.

Going into 2027, get ready to hunt for 5% gains per trade and keep rotating capital where opportunities exist.

Long-term investors may not like this approach, but active traders will understand the game.

The new strategy? Spot the opportunity, take your profit, and move on.

Lol some of us have more pressing active businesses. So we jump and pass.
How about if my ngx investment is like 20 % of my total investment in life. I already have a service business to lunch next yr in my state.That is my latest target

That will go a long way for people here to be responding to your post wisely
we will like to verify u

No, Nigeria is not we are we are today because Tinubu took some bold economic decisions.
We are we are today because we failed to take some of those economic decisions earlier in our development.
It wouldn't have been this bad if GEJ had the courage to follow through on some of those though decisions.

A man of capacity that does not have integrity, honesty, sincerity, discipline etc. will use the so-called ''capacity'' to destroy the nation.
In the worst case, Capacity can be acquired, learnt or even outsourced to some extent.
What cannot be toyed with is integrity, sincerity, honesty, discipline etc
Most men that destroyed the world are men with Capacity but without the other qualities e.g. Hitler, Idi Amin

*JP Morgan has reportedly deposited $38m with the CBN as part of its application for a banking licence in Nigeria.*

- *Amount:* $38 million paid to CBN as a licensing requirement.
- *Goal:* To set up a merchant bank operation in Nigeria before end of 2026.
- CBN yet to officially confirm.
- *Who's leading:* Dapo Olagunju, MD of JP Morgan West Africa, had said earlier they were targeting 2026 commencement
- *Context:* On Sept 15, 2026 JP Morgan added Nigeria to its new emerging markets index — which already boosted confidence in NGX.

*Why it matters for the market:*

1. *Capital market boost:* If NNPC, NLNG listings are also pushing FG's target of ₦750trn market cap, a JP Morgan merchant bank adds foreign credibility.
2. *For NGX:* More foreign inflow potential — merchant banks can deal in wholesale banking, advisory, FX, and fixed income, not retail branches.
3. *Naira angle:* Naira still depreciating on Oct 19. A bank like JP Morgan coming in doesn't fix FX immediately, but it's a vote of confidence.

This is still *unconfirmed by CBN*, so treat as reported move, not final approval.

Many won't understand this statement especially those who joined NGX few years ago or recently joined

*FG unveils $1trn Capital Market Plan — NCMMP 2.0*

Unveiled in Abuja, by VP Shettima (represented by Sen. Hadejia):

*What was launched:*
1. *Nigerian Capital Market Master Plan 2.0 (2026-2036)*
2. *National Savings Scheme*

*Targets:*
- Grow market from *~N250trn now to N750trn by 2036* — SEC DG Emomotimi Agama
- Raise equities market cap from *33% of GDP to at least 60% of GDP*
- Secure *investment-grade credit rating within 3 years*
- Ultimate ambition: *$1 trillion capital market* — aligns with FG's broader $1trn economy push

*How they plan to get there — per Finance Minister Taiwo Oyedele:*
- Coordinated regulation, modern market infrastructure
- New investment products, broader investor participation
- Simplify investor onboarding, strengthen custody & settlement
- Reduce cross-border barriers — this is where JP Morgan's $38m licence deposit fits in
- National Savings Scheme for education, housing, business, retirement with tax incentives.

*The problem SEC flagged:*
> "Too few Nigerians own a share, a bond or a unit in a collective investment scheme. Much of our savings sits idle outside the formal system, and is quietly eroded by inflation."

And only *∼151 companies listed on NGX* — House Committee Chair Osita Izunaso said FG needs to push more listings, like the NNPC and NLNG listings rumoured.

The man u support has been given opportunity for the past 3 yrs.
Has he not fair or not even as he is from your village.
He has broken record of making nigeria the poverty head quarter of the world.
What else should we wait for him to achieve because he is from your village.
Did I generate the records because I hate him
Do you have investment on ngx
I will start blocking those who post on this thread but have no investment on ngy
They are waste of my space

You are wrong!
Ask Tinubu what he said in those days when other govts were in power.
Today, you want to twist the narrative as excuse to favour him because he is in govt!

The same Jagaban who fought against Jonathan’s administration and participated in the protests that occupied Ojota is now presiding over a government whose policies are placing enormous pressure on the masses.

We deceive ourselves too much in this country, joor! The standards we demanded from yesterday’s leaders must not suddenly become unreasonable when it is our own people in power. Principles should not change simply because political loyalties have changed

A SIMPLE ADVICE TO JAGABAN

Fuel subsidy removal and the resulting inflation have placed an enormous burden on ordinary Nigerians, making it imperative for the Federal Government to adopt more compassionate policies that protect citizens’ welfare while encouraging state governments to improve essential social services.

One practical intervention would be the introduction of Universal Health Insurance, providing free essential healthcare for children under 18 and affordable coverage for adults, supported by sustainable government funding and a proposed monthly premium of ₦500.

Within 90 days, the government could begin implementing this initiative by strengthening existing health insurance structures, upgrading primary healthcare centres, expanding telemedicine and automating healthcare administration to improve accessibility, efficiency and accountability.

Although the proposed funding arrangements require careful financial assessment, a well-designed universal healthcare system could reduce out-of-pocket medical expenses, protect vulnerable households from financial hardship and strengthen Nigeria’s healthcare sector.

With only a few months before the election, the government still has an opportunity to demonstrate compassionate leadership through practical policies that improve the lives of Nigerians, because healthcare is not a privilege for the wealthy but a fundamental necessity for everyone.

250 million people, and we can't find one competent person? Really? Even the lottery has better odds. These arguments in defence of status quo are getting crazier by the day. The other day, someone suggested everybody has a drug dealer on speed dial.

I call it scam but sec called it a business not really in existence. Abi what was the reason given by sec.
iF a business not properly operational is said to have a value of 1 shares of rice company equivalent to 12 shares of sugar company and 11 shares of salt company in my name.You will openly call me a scam but because it has to do with a billionaire with a name Dangote. You will call it a mistake or over sight
You are a typical apc person .Why are u people like this
We pointed fingers to wale and the chidi moudi but alhaji is special even when the obvious is thr.
Pls what is the situation report on the rice company today

Something is happening to Oando's buy order book. Who is buying 1.2 million shares at N34.35?

Yes,I load my cash in Ngx on strong TA and exit when the TA declines.

Your last paragraph is very amazing considering the fact you're a Nigerian.

I may be wrong, you may be a Senegalese to say GEJ did not initiate bold economic reforms which would have seen the government save more through subsidy removal. Maybe you forgot how Tinubu teamed up with so many unpatriotic fellows to call GEJ slayer of the masses and organised the "Occupy Nigeria" protests which forced GEJ's government to reverse pump price.

It's either you chose falsehood or you want to sneak away from acknowledging the whole truth.

What Tinubu is doing cannot in any sense be called economic reforms. On paper it's ok but reality every credible institution points to one thing, incremental poverty!

See u people lol.So BAT knew it was wise and right decisions but gathered at ojota to protest about it.The only mistake gej did was not arresting him and his likes and throwing them into jail.As he goes on with the policies by your capacity standards

I have been supporting the removal of subsidy since ya ardua era.
If the president and his team were convinced removing subsidy was good for the country, the onus is on the president to provide leadership and direction and find a way to deliver it no matter who is opposing it (that is capacity)
