Direction Board

Be the first to take the plan and make business of creating a direction board in every city bus stop.
The direction board contains the map of a certain community in that bus stop, listing all the streets in that community and how to get where.

it's serves as guide for visitors, for school children when they get lost, and saves the dispatch rider valuable time, better plans the community.

Portable Television

Mostly now, people open their shops and place of business even on Sunday, The phone might try but it isn't within every one's financial range right now, and there's still that need for local tv and news.

Importing a portable television that sells for 20k could find patronage compared to the cheapest phone that sells for 80k

Your average shop owners deserve some company.

Snookers Competition

As much as I have seen people play, I doubt they could beat guys from Bauchi and Plateau
but a little event place, a standard board, some plaques, a well organized, and we might have ourselves a competition.

There is a business in designing and upgrading a town, which thereby increases it's value and hastens it's development. Now what makes a town beautiful?

DRIED FRUIT/ Vegetables .

You gonna need a drier, at least one or two because Fruits, a lot of them get damaged in transit they get thrown Into gutter and bin that's the end to it.

But these fruits and vegetables could be dried and use to make supplement for our children cereals, imagine making tom Brown with some dried banana mixed in, it instantly doubles the nutrient and quality of the cereal.

Carrots could be dried added to millet for vitamin A rich cereal
cucumbers dried could be used to make cucumber oil
plantain, dried serve as a wonderful addition to our local swallow flour
pineapple and mangoes also..
nothing should be wasted, just get them from the sellers in the farmer's market, Wash cut, and dry them for sale

ashimiu2020:
This is eye opening.

Does one need any licence or paperwork to run the above business?

I look forward to your response.

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.

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.

Port Harcourt
Akwa Ibom
Warri

to
Ibeno
Port Harcourt
Calabar et. al
Get some life jackets for safety and make cool money

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.

Nice one chief.

Just a quick one, the charcoal we buy in Lagos those ones they tie in black nylon, are those the ones you refer to as activated charcoal?

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

Using interlocking stones in the area where the trees are to be planted, Make a proposal the state government about the Planting of trees in Between Roads as a humidifier, carbon emissions sequester and beautifying the road and community in extension.
Employ the same workforce of road sweepers to wet, maintain its growth and report a transplant.

Calisthenics /workout on radio

Saturday morning workout program used to be a norm on television and some radio stations had and added health programs to it, A light work out program could find us exercising in the morning.
Engaging record officers is another thing entirely.

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.

Weather forecast on radio

The radio is the eyes and companion of the blind and bedridden A little time for Weather forecast will help with their mental stimulation on how the day is, And a forecast prepare one ahead for the next day especially in the rainy season.

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.

Audio skits on radio

There ain't no much fun on the radio, skits from YouTube or other channels should be players intermittently on radio, You have to put into context that thew radio is the blind person companion, and when there's only doom, gloom, the depressing messages making rounds at present and repeated programs. At least a little fun helps lighten all that a little.

it's possible.

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
