It’s legally impossible to become president as a naturalized citizen of Nigeria. However, a naturalized citizen can start the chain reactions leading to his descendants aspiring to that office. Simply being born in the country does not qualify a person for that office, either. The constitution defines who a Nigerian citizen is (jus soli is not our law).

emmanuelewumi:
Why not,? If he has naturalized himself as a Nigerian, identified himself as a Nigerian or was born in Nigeria.

I disagree with this point of view (that China will “conquer” Africa soon), but I have a lot on my hand today, so I won’t engage in that argument.

megawealth01:
Write this down and paste it somewhere...
China will comquer AFRICA soon. They are survivors

presiade:
Overall, my combined portfolios had a good run for July. At least, I recovered most of the paper losses I incurred in June. I don’t know what the constitution of your portfolio looks like, but most well-structured ones should have had fair to good performance in July.

August seems to have a significant chance of having a good performance as well, don’t forget Frontier Market approval is likely to come next month. If it’s sure that foreign investors will come in September after FM rating, nothing will stop the next full bull run starting in August!

Is that a lie? LoL

Then you people should shut the f*ck up till you find your non existent proof.

Of course, it can’t solve the folly you’ve been displaying here in the last few days. You cannot pretend for so long, as they say.

If you’re in need of help, kindly call 911 or check into a medical facility for rehabilitation.

awesomeJ:
How does this solve your fundamental issue ??

What are you smoking these days? Did you change your plug? It seems this supply is too heavy for your brain to handle.

He said waist dey give joy and life na?

Something must kill a man , but I wish him long life sha.

megawealth01:
Waist won't allow him spell an well jare

At the bolded, because we haven’t gotten proof that (carbon-based) life exists on other planets is not a confirmation that life exists only on our planet. As exploration continues in our vast universe (with sextillions of planets), the possibility is open.

awesomeJ:
How does having a belief amount to a waste?
This isn't at all logical.

A belief or lack thereof doesn't cost any of life's essences. It's a matter of choice, and for a lot of us, the choice is well founded.

If you showed me proof of alien life of even simply successfully synthesize properly folding proteins from a random chemical reaction, then maybe the alternative explanation of life would have basis.

There are trillions of planets out there, only a fool would believe life happened by accident and Earth conveniently happens to be the only instance whereas there statistically should be over a billion alien worlds.

Trying to mention waste in relation to belief here is completely illogical.

Tool.

Hope is a powerful too

Wonder why/how some people waiste (abi waste ) their lives on the hope of a heaven in the afterlife

Always “underpromise but overdeliver”.

emmanuelewumi:
Good corporate managers, gave modest forecasts and they exceeded them

Na only Ella beautiful, so I go fit put by just-landed PRESCO dividend on her. Oil money back into oil money. /s Juli is a gold digger.

faoogoke:
Add Juli join

Instead of buying some hype, I’d buy beautiful Ellah Lekos. /s

I’m even more conservative because of this current CBN hook on the banks. I’m not sure if the interim will be up to that range you quoted, but we’ll see soon.

emmanuelewumi:
I am expecting a total dividend of N15.

Interim dividend of N3 to N4

Final dividend of N11 to N12

Possibly N11-N12. Don’t worry, I know where you’re driving to, he go surprise you. It’s not coming back to your grave robber bus stop. 😂

Agbalowomeri:
Will Zenith pay full year dividend of N13?

Some forces are trying so hard to limit the price of ZENITHBANK shares to <N127. For how long? The end of that game is near.

Get the median (50th percentile) subscription amount amount to see the true picture.

That’s why the investment lower age limit is 18, and they are responsible for their financial decisions. If you warn them, they most likely won’t take to your advice—only their own experience will teach them.

👌 @the bolded, it becomes a salaried job for them. LoL

Streetinvestor2:
Many will be disappointed if after 1 or 2 yrs the investment cannot buy them phone. They will not want to participate in stocks again. I know many who participated those days in bank ipo and are disappointed with the results. It is even worse for the banks that closed shop and 2008 crash. That is why even with large population we only have like 600k active accounts on ngx.
When you tell them about stocks. They will be asking u what they will be making monthly from the investment

Is it your money? Let them pay tuition first.

essentialone1:
This massive influx of uninformed Gen-Zs into the stock market with Android phone Apps, are they mentally ready for the next Stock Market Mega Crash?

LoL the bitter truth is that most Nigerians don’t complain about corruption because they are anti-corruption, they complain about it only because they or their benefactors are not directly involved in it for them to also enjoy the “national cake”.

Itzlinda:
I heard that petrol is now N1,500/liter in some places. So you people are no longer complaining because you are about to own a small part of the refining kompeni abi?

Sell outs kawai. You betrayed the struggle.

Even then, it was -13 kobo (loss). 😂

In this market, people must pay tuition.

Agbalowomeri:
He is looking at Q2 alone not H1
EPS Q2 = 13kobo EPS Q2 = -13 kobo.
Don't worry year end will be back to negative

Are you one of those “clowns” or one of their cronies? Drop more detailed info so that interested parties here can also share in the loot with you guys. When you said the “company has become profitable”, what’s the current EPS? It was negative (loss per share) as at Q2 2026.

Redoil:
those clowns managing ellah lakes have seen the future prospects

I see what you did. Wawulence and wickedness factorial!

Agbalowomeri:
.

Where is your source?

Redoil:
Haunty Mercy Ellah Lake has becoming profitable is March yet they kept the price low for their cronis gangs and members to acquire 80% of the stock

Inspector Musa, is that you? LoL.

wordcat:
So na the 250k go complete your papers?

Anyway, I will not advice you to get a lawyer because you may win the case but your car may become a scrap before the end of the case.

Just add Like 10k or 20k for them and bail your car.

When you factor in dividend payments over the years and the bonus share issue of 2012 (adjust those payments for time value of money), the story should look quite different.

Itzlinda:
Nearly Two Decades Later, FCMB Shares Remain Below Their 2007 IPO Price

FCMB went public in 2007, selling shares at ₦14 each. Nearly two decades later, the stock trades at just ₦11.90, leaving initial investors who simply held the shares down about 15% in nominal terms.

But inflation tells a much harsher story. Adjusted for the rise in Nigerian consumer prices since 2007, that ₦14 would need to be worth roughly ₦210 today just to preserve its purchasing power. At ₦11.90, the investment has therefore lost about 94% of its value in real terms.

Meanwhile, FCMB's market capitalization has grown substantially over the period as the number of shares outstanding increased. It is a striking reminder that growth in a company's market capitalization does not necessarily translate into wealth creation for long-term shareholders.


The lesson for investors is simple: be careful about what you choose to hold for the long term. Don’t marry any company or stock simply because you believe in its story. Continually reassess the fundamentals, dilution, inflation-adjusted returns and opportunity cost. Long-term investing should mean long-term conviction backed by evidence not permanent loyalty.

This is a delulu comment. Renaming Lake Ontario to Lake America has made America great again and the skyrocketing $40T national debt has now disappeared, and my taxes are no longer used by tRUMP to service the debt that he keeps increasing senselessly.

Milo Yiannopoulos did more than you’re doing, the tRUMP REGIME still sent him back to where he belongs. If you think by boot-licking tRUMP online will make them give you a visa or renew it for you, you must be a joker, which all you MAGAt are by the way.

Presiade, I think I told you to leave antifa so that TDS will leave you.
Does this new bizi-bodi cartographic timewasting increase the physical land mass of your village, Nigeria or Africa in any way?
Or is it just that deranged western leftists, some of whom sit at the UN, wake up every day looking for something new to obssess or agitate over?
How was the old map hurting Africa?

America opposed because it was pure timewasting that has no benefit whatsoever to Africans or anybody.

And wait, because I know where you're going or coming from.

Trump is not a gentleman at all. Trump is MAGAlomaniac and rough. But Trump is helping us fight terrorism, which Obama and his completely kpakus Democrats party refused to do during Jonathan.

It’s not really a big deal. Although, Mike Faborode became a professor in his 30s and later the Vice Chancellor of Obafemi Awolowo University at about 40 years of age. That’s quite an accomplishment.

There’s no shame in it. If it’s trivial, the U.N. assembly would have shut it down before putting it up for voting.

The message is not about begging anyone to accept or recognize us, rather it is to reveal the hypocrisy of the U.S. The U.N. resolution is not even enforceable in any way, but it serves as a reminder of how Africa should carefully choose her allies. If this is a non-issue to Trump’s U.S. but renaming a lake is a top priority for him, then we need to review our priorities as a continent as well.

deathwing:
This is a complete non-issue that Africans should have been embarrassed to bring up. Do your own maps and hang it in your schools. You don’t have to ask or petition anybody. If the continent agrees to adopt it, then everyone talking to Africans will be forced to use it. If the US accepts, does it suddenly increase our GDP or make us a military power? We are begging people whose poorest countries are richer than our richest for recognition. SMH

Permit me to drop this here.

The United Nations recently voted on representing the African continent according to its true scale on a map, and here is how the member countries voted:
