Has anyone called you a scammer because it's very wrong to make argument on behalf of others if no one has ever called you a scammer. We all know too well online scammers far outnumbered genuine online hustlers, that's like ratio 20:1

I am writing from personal experience.

Please, kindly show me the result of your findings that showed that online scammers: genuine online hustlers is ratio 20:1

I was even conservative with that ratio, online scammers is like ratio 100:1 to genuine online hustlers in Nigeria! Don't look like you're surprised.

Produce your evidence. Don't just manufacture numbers. Where is the evidence to back this claim up?

Hi Slydog:
You said: “This your solution is not easy o, I wonder what restaurant did to you to deserve this. Will closing down restaurants & having a "national policy" on those sectors generate employment for the teeming millions? I need to understand the rationale behind your solution”


Let me explain:
Restaurant is classified as a small business and one of the most important engines that drives economic growth in the society and creates jobs for locals. According to 2012 business report by the small business administration in USA, small business-like restaurant comprised 99.7% of US employer firms.

People who work in restaurants keep money earned in their communities. They shop in local stores, shoes stores, barber shop, groceries stores. When people spend money, it provides jobs opportunities for others.

Restaurants pay taxes to the government. People who work at the restaurant pay taxes to the government. People who eat at the restaurants also pay taxes. These taxes generate revenues to the government—allowing government to hire people to work

On the other hand, restaurant workers spend their wages to buy personal items like shoes, clothes, etc. That creates jobs for locals and generates revenues for other business to help them to hire others to work.

now, this kind of business does not work in Nigeria because every tribe in Nigeria has their own food. For an example, in Nigeria, you have Ibo food restaurant, Yoruba food restaurant, Hausa food restaurant, Ibibio food restaurant, Ijaw food restaurant----making it difficult for employees of these restaurants to transfer their skills to restaurants not designed to feed people from another tribe.


I propose national policy not just on restaurants business but all other private sector businesses because it will allow businesses to be located anywhere in Nigeria instead of a particular tribe. That means if you know how to cook Yoruba food, you have skill to cook Ibibio food. And that is job opportunity.

Why is operation of restaurant business work for people America, Europe and Asian countries, not people in Nigeria?

The short answer is Nigerian government officials run government services not on policy, but whatever gets into their mind. That is a recipe for disaster. You are witnessing it in Nigeria today.

You do realise in the USA there are indian restaurants that cook strictly Indian food, Mexican restaurants that cook strictly Mexican and Chinese restaurants that cook strictly Chinese. Food is a fundamental part of culture.

An impressive line of reasoning, yes we need policies for sme and sectors that generate substantial multiplier effect, however there are things you cannot legislate. If I HV the resources to set up my restaurant in my village, inhabited by my own tribe, I doubt you can legislate me by law or policy into preparing delicacies of other tribes not adequately represented within my area of influence.
In economics, there is what is called comparative advantage, man as a rational and Economic being engaged in business wherein he is hopeful of making maximum returns.
Like I said, nice line of reasoning, keep thinking and refining your thoughts

tensazangetsu20: “You do realize in the USA there are indian restaurants that cook strictly Indian food, Mexican restaurants that cook strictly Mexican and Chinese restaurants that cook strictly Chinese. Food is a fundamental part of culture.”

True—you are right.
I ate in an Egyptian restaurant last Night—here in US. I saw 5 waitresses. That number excludes the cooks. Believe me, some of them are college graduates. Minimum take home a day for these restaurant workers is $100 plus tips. These waitresses dress well and drive expensive cars.

The different between restaurants in western countries and Nigeria is wages in Nigeria are too low. That discourages people from patronizing restaurant jobs. It also discourages investors from coming to Nigeria to open up business.

Cnnews is an American television news network. On August 3, 2020 its market place segment on Africa reported that a south Africa business store in Nigeria---Shoprite is closing its operation and leaving Nigeria because wages paid to workers is too low.

So, higher minimum wage in Nigeria must be made compatible to those in America, Europe, and Asian nations if Nigeria is to improve hiring prospect at home.

This will only work if the government of Nigeria hires policy people to be ministers and corporate managers.

I took my time to examine the qualifications of Nigerian ministers servicing in Buhari government. I was stunned to notice that not a single one of them is a policy person.

No more college professors as ministers. Business owners should be ministers and corporate managers in Nigerian government. Business owners know how to make things work because they have gone through it before.

Wages in Nigeria will never be the same as the USA not with the kind of policies implemented. Nigeria is heading to Somali status.

The comment you made above is a sign of foolishness. How can you just be passing judgement on someone you don't know? What evidence do you have? Do you know that comment alone can land you into a libel case, a case that will cause sorrow to your family?

Why I'm not surprised at your outburst? Because many of you are nothing but online fraudsters. Turning a blind eyes to the ills of the society doesn't mean that the problem is not there. Do you even have a family? Many of you always run away from the family, just to be free of family prying eyes and good advice.
