Yurts and Tents for the displaced

Unfortunately there is an opportunity in disaster, this one however requires dealing with the government or the NGO overseeing the IDP camps.
You can make deal to import and erect tents and yurts for the Internally Displaced person from any of thr myriad calamities that is a recurrence in this country.
They pick the site, you provide and erect tents and sanitation .
Plateau, Borno, Kaduna.. but we pray for lasting peace.

Crematorium

It's not that lucrative, but the influx of Indians and Chinese in our country offers you the opportunity to run a crematorium should they lose a person.
Many Nigerians would soon buy into the idea in places where there are shortage of land.
Mortuary services, urns and coffins... valla morghulis

Cheese is the New Meat

Already in practice in some Universities, the cost of meat will be too discouraging in future.
But cheese will be the rescue. If you can invest in it's sale you would be really investing in the now and the future.

Tote and Basket Bags

For those who know to weave basket bags and Tote bags, you can take advantage of the new rejection of single use plastic bags in malls.
You can sell them right at the entrance, target ICM, Justrite and other major malls and make a lot of money selling quality basket bags

Packaged Minced Meat

Taking time to collect the bones and meat from the shavings off butchers in the abbatoir, to a grinder who minces it into tiny pieces could become a package source of stock, for soup cooking and noodles if you sell them at a very cheap rate
Sometimes we just need those tiny itty little bits for our daily protein

They could be salted dried for preservation and packaging

Parboiled Beans

If you can pressure boil and parboil beans in a large scale, dry, package and sell in stores. It could go a long way in making this very filling gas effective, especially for workers.
Parboiled beans in sachet like the big bull sachet rice, could make rice and beans in 15 minutes a daily food for supper.

Alternator and battery for Bicycles

This idea is for the engineers, I have a design I drew of a V shaped alternator that powers a battery on the fulcrum lid, gotten from the energy of the riders pedalling.

A very good design could change tour de France.
I'm just kidding, but if you can get an small alternator with battery attached to a bicycle and you have changed the future of transportation forever.

IDEA FOR TESLA

Using Bernoulli equation for pressure for energy and 4 mini alternators connected to the battery
You could have pressure/fluid tyres that powers the car on the move. No need to wait for it to charge,
It charges on the go, the pressure is gotten from the cars weight pressing on the pressure of the types and converted to energy that charges the battery.

With a solar sun roof. It is a forever drive

A Private Water Corporation


In a state like Enugu, you can use the drainages to channel the pipes and provide water to houses and community.
It's an expensive project but you could isolate communities, target the estates.
Isolation would also help mitigate vandalism which is sure to happen, in which the community donates for it repair and keep a better watch next time.

Water is life.. if you have the money

Bar code scanner

Bank could make use of bar code scanners for deposit and withdrawal.
It could mean the end of ATM cards. All you need is the phone with a bank app t scan the barcode off the ATM and deposit and withdraw. After typing your pin.
It might reduce the need for cashiers.
Put your money in the counter, scan the barcode. Input deposit and move on with your life.

Recharge cards

Instead of printing so many paper cards you can use the Bar code scanner, if you have a phone just click on the amount of card you want to sell.
It turns to a barcode the customer scans it and recharge their phone.
You could also have a self service center in your Sim registration shops

Pharmacies should have their own personal HMo

A pharmacy can create a HMO and credit facility to aid in the ease Of sale and turnover for their drugs. You could go after schools and get a plan for the teachers for malaria and typhoid.
At 1k a month, it's a better way of pushing your goods. Drugs hardly sell, but An extension of concern would put you in prime position for steady sales.

Stock Up shop Mobile
You could abridge the gap between wholesalers and retailers and become a Mobile wholesaler yourself.
You need a Suzuki super carry, buy these provision goods in wholesale and carton price, then you go after the retailers in their shops and deliver and sell the goods to them there. Many of these retailers especially the aged have a hard time going to the market for the smallest thing and the transport fare discourages them.
You could go one step further and help Revitalizing shops, Using credit you could stock up the shop with goods for a percentage and telling her person to pay small small
Your mobility will increase your range and profit

SHRINES

Do you know why the Japanese are better than us, they know the importance of sacrifice in a man's life, so they create different shrines revering every of their gods. They even have a toilet god (vaishravana), they have a god of fertility and so forth..
We as Africans have more gods than they do but we've shelved them.
There is business in using a plot of land to build mini shrines with adjoining park where people can come and make sacrifice, relax and ask for consultation Attach a donation box.

And you have not only provided a service but succor also

Consumer Statistic and Data Analysis

Many nigerians spend a lot of idle time in the shop and that is demographic.
You could run a consumer goods analysis by sending questionnaire to them to answer for 100 weekly credit, using a WhatsApp group.
which gives you an understanding of the market dynamics

Data is valuable information for those who are in need of it, you take that data to the companies that need it and you will get your money.

Breakfast club

There are No eatery that focuses on breakfast alone, breakfast meals are quite easy to prepare and their ingredients are easier to preserve. And yes I'm alluding to the popular movie.
But If you focus only on
Pancakes
Hamburger
Coffee
Eggs
Noodles

You might find breakfasters all day and at night too. You could run a 24 hrs breakfast club.
Diced peppers are easy to preserve, buns, eggs and you wouldn't spend so much on gas

Catering in schools
Caterers have a hard time selling their craft, it's soo popular and there are lot of competition.
A lot of them are reduced to just advertising their style as fries in show glasses.
But why not take it to the school, have an agreement with the Principal of the school for you to teach Catering as Practical home economics for secondary school students

so the students catering practical are added to their tuition or are paid to you weekly.
If 200 students pay 500 naira to you, you could make fries, teach and earn some.
Teaching simple foods, soups and even complex dish, return to continue your business, with that as an option, you wouldn't be stuck in the shop all day .

BIKE Umbrellas
A major attraction of Eket, and the whole of Akwa Ibom, even though this requires a bit if construction, with the right investment you could take your business to the North where the sun is Kano and the sun is Ilorin and Yobe.. you understand how hot it is when a the state name is the right superlative. The East and in Lagos for both sun and the rain, a main stay for our bicycle riding Ice cream sellers.

You could really make some money from bike Umbrellas

A HALF DRINK AND HERBS

I see these local herb hawkers who sell herbs in hot drinks for men inside nylon and wonder why we can't seem to spice things up with a little packaging.

How do you think Bartenders and mixologist make their money abroad, by selling half/quarter of a drink and making twice the gain off a bottle.

How many people can afford 501 bottle? Very few. But that shouldn't hinder them from drinking a little bit
You need your glass and lime and you can sell these drinks by the shot.
A shot of hot drink is 200 naira and you sell 10 shots at 2k which is more than the bottle.
Add a space and some ambience and you could be in big business, add local alcoholic herbs and you are set.
It is because we don't have this culture, that we buy our drinks in sachet, and they mostly contain alcohol.
But if you could buy a half drink of Jameson, and jack Daniels (for 500 naira with ice and lime)
If you had the patience and the time.

Using credit system and Layaway Packages to sell electronics appliances in Nigeria.

Electronic sellers habeba hard time selling their wares as they are expensive, they take long to sell, meanwhile there are young Nigerians who want to buy them but cannot afford to pay at once. Why not use a layaway and credit system to sell your wares faster, using a guarantor.
Don't wait to sell it , go after them give them an opay number they can deposit to,and if they default you will collect it back
You could sell your electronic in Bachelor/spinster package which includes
Home Theatre
Television
DECODER
Washing machine for 365k
Or family package which consists much more
A 5k deposit and 1k per day for a year, and you will find them buying something new every year
There's always a business in the mprovement of people lives.
Layaway style can also be done for
clothes, and other accessories for living

Here's an idea, it's business side comes from sponsorship on the long run,
I find out that it cost 40 million to open a standard race track in Jigawa, why Jigawa the scenery the climate
That air is perfect for a 24 hours le mans like drive

But for nows it feels like Nigerians are itching for speed, roaming in their cars so I present a
Need for speed like travel racing organized by boys where first to third get 1-3 million
150,000 registration money for the
LAGMAD RACE
From Lagos to Maiduguri
Or Lagos to Kano and Lagos to Makurdi
Something like what Fangio and the gang used to do.

A truck of repair and refuelling will join the team you are your own driver and mechanic.
You get a satelite phone Incase you get missing or have car trouble on the road
May the best driver win.

Exactly designed for a developing world. With your unique code no one can vote twice.
No one

Every sawmill must be mandated a tree tax And rhe sellers of the wood should be made to pay that tax,
They make a living from the felling of trees and their deforestation must be repaired. A plant a tree foundation must be created by the government and must collect tax from the sellers of woofs and operators of sawmills. A tax which they can therefore add to the sale of the goods to the consumer, discouraging the use of new wood for roofing houses. They could buy used woods or use less. Minimizing waste would Ensure that afforestation repairs the damage done to our forests.
Charcoal and firewood sellers must be made to also pay tax for selling charcoal, the tree is thier raw material and with the natural flora depleting.
It is imperative that they doled some form of taxation to replace the cut and burnt trees. They can't keep making their gain and living large off nature, without consequence it's all we got

To really key down rigging
Every individual would have a special number
Which they can change when they change their street or relocate at the inec office.
So if you are living at No 7 decker street
Your voting number is 7DCKstLAg (7 decker street Lagos)
every individual would have a unique number And will remain so, until you go and change it to the new street number you stay at with an update with the street chairman who will upload the changes to the CDA and so forth until you get a text that your update have been effected which allows you to vote in the next election.

Here's How to conduct census in a single day in Nigeria.
So you pick a Saturday, announce before hand that the Nation wide census will be holding on that day.
So you get an Excel sheet or an excel software which they can upload the collation to.

Start with the Street chairman, he knows the street , counts the house for example 30 house in a street, check the house and count the family on each house an average of 4 persons per house and he will report that in baker street they have 120 persons.
Submit it to the CDA chairman the CDA chairman if he be in charge of 10 streets will list the streets
Baker, Coker, Decker, Fesker, Gesker, Hesker, Jesker street (120 x 10) that is 1200 persons in his CDA and submit to the LGA chairman if he has 10 CDA he will collage 1200 persons X 10 CDA = 12, thousand people.
And submit to the state State collation chairman representing the state government
Who will see that he has 8 local government like Bayelsa for instance will know that 8 local government of 12thousand people means the entire population in his state is 96 thousand
And send it to the National census chairman who should be receiving the collated response of other states of 37 X 96 thousand which should put the total number of the people in the street at 1.2 million add thatwith those in Hospital, Prison and at essential workers 1.22 million and all this can be done before 12pm on One Saturday

Now moving forward, the government would Ensure that the local government keeps an updated catalog office recording birth and deaths to make census easier.

I don't know why they need billions to conduct census. I don't know what is so hard about ruling this country.

Now over to Elections:
Elections can be equally be conducted in the same way.
Using the census report we know the amount of eligible voters in a sreer no rigging
Using Excel you can separate eligibility by 18 yrs simple And Once there is a discrepancy the computer will reject it immediately
With a makeshift booth of a mobile toilet in every street the voter is in and out at in 20 seconds

If there's 20 eligible voters in a street and election show 28 people, that means it was rigged and cancel it.
You Just need an INEC observer who report to a line manager in The local government with a body mic and camera
20 eligible voting adult in one street
10 pdp
6 apc
3 labour
1 ypp
Within 3 hours election are done in the country
If your voters card Don't reflect the street you can't vote.
Any sign of violence and the election is cancelled im that street, it will be hard to rig every street and easier to isolate mishaps
The number on the street census must tally with the number of voters.

You don't need to spend billions

Well you'll need to mix some salt with the ash and put drops of hot water using cotton wool

But if you have the money, Apple cider vinegar or any vinegar is your best bet.

Witchcraft Injuries

Certain sores appear at the back of your sole, and toe, created and heated up by women who make them pain you and cause them not to heal, they are sweet sores that affect your nerves and can hinder you from walking. In Igbo it is called achi ere

Use ash to heal these injuries
Pressing ash on the surface or swallowing a copious amount of ash (nothing will happen,it cannot kill you) to cleanse your system and dry it up

CAR MAINTENANCE FRANCHISE

A person with the money can run a car maintenance fanchise in all filling stations, ie Car wash and vulcanizer in every filling stations the influx of cars means they fill their tank and fix their car trouble also.
Employ mechanics and car washers on hourly basis

Construction

You can take on the work of local governments, by constructing bridges, drainage ror local community whole you tax the community for your work and some profit.

If you build a bridge across a river and tax the houses 2k you will see your money and make profit. Some still go on to levy passersby 50 naira but you don't need that.
Construction of bridges, grading of road, drainage for communities are ways of making money

KELP & SEAWEED

You find at the Third mainland bridge that people are already using the ocean to rear fish in large scale.
But they could do one better and plant kelp and sea weed.

It can be dried and exported, there is an Asian market for it and you can also sell it here also.
Noodles companies could add dried kelp with their seasonings like Uno noodles used to do.

It's very nutritious

He made a mistake by playing the Wiked game
He should have focused his attention on development project and allowed the distraction see it end. He played right into their hands and fell for the wike trap
Start campaigning for 2027, start your smear campaign on wike now, if you want.
Start your own grassroot movement, every disappoinment is a blessing and now that the Ijaws know where they stand, they should begin their own grassroot movement and stop being spoon fed.
Wike and the clone Tinubu are just two people
Don't mind the state of emergency, Government lies with the people
Now is your chance to get close to them.

MOBILE DECODER


Please who is interested in creating an app that would end Dstv /startimes hegemony.
I am thinking of an Android phone app
And the usage of a Hdmi and broadband satelite modem that uses the otg cable, probably with no need for internet, something that connects to the Satellite directly, like star link
Bluetooth Or WiFi designed as a Tv app like Kodi

For watching football.
People use their phone mostly, a creation like that would Make billions
