Na wah o!

In July 2014, some private and government parastatals received a proposal to purchase 2 Catamaran boats to alleviate transport problems, especially in Lagos area (Mile 2 - CMS; Ikorodu - Island etc)

I have tried to post pictures here, but the details of the boats can be downloaded in the thread below:

So, what do you think?

Can we maintain the boats?

Will it be a profitable idea to invest in these boats for transport business as an individual?

How much should people pay for a 30 minute ride from CMS to Mile 2?

Hello Everyone,

I want to commend the vision and leadership style of the OP, Mr GoldenDiamond, only God can reward you.

I also want to commend everyone here for being matured followers, listeners and contributors! God will continue to guide you and butter your breads.

I abandoned nairaland for over 6 years now because 99% percent of the posts here, at that time, were filled with insults and childish behaviours. Even a post as richly rewarding as this one, would have been labelled "419" or people would have started insulting each other's tribes, religions or political parties in the comments.

I salute all of you for what you have done in keeping this wonderful post free of such negative distractions.

That said, I am also an Entrepreneurship Coach and I will like to support what the OP is doing here. I am mostly based abroad (France, Brazil, Dubai and Ghana) but I am presently in Nigeria to launch a new business support network. I don't want to mention the name here for ethical reasons.

But, seeing that the topic under discussion currently is: "How to Organise Seminars", please let me offer you all a manual which I wrote on it and offered to my students. I am sure you can combine the information in my manual with all the GREAT lessons you have learned here.

It is too large at 440kb to be attached here, but I will soon post a link for you to download it for free. God bless us ALL. Happy sunday!!!

5 Minute Management Course


Lesson 1:

A man is getting into the shower just as his wife is finishing up her shower, when the doorbell rings.

The wife quickly wraps herself in a towel and runs downstairs.

When she opens the door, there stands Bob, the next-door neighbour.

Before she says a word, Bob says, 'I'll give you $800 to drop that towel.'


After thinking for a moment, the woman drops her towel and stands naked in front of Bob, after a few seconds, Bob hands her $800 and leaves.


The woman wraps back up in the towel and goes back upstairs.

When she gets to the bathroom, her husband asks, 'Who was that?'

'It was Bob the next door neighbour,' she replies.

'Great,' the husband says, 'did he say anything about the $800 he owes me?'


Moral of the story:
If you share critical information pertaining to credit and risk with your shareholders in time, you may be in a position to prevent avoidable exposure.




Lesson 2:


A priest offered a Nun a lift.

She got in and crossed her legs, forcing her gown to reveal a leg.

The priest nearly had an accident.

After controlling the car, he stealthily slid his hand up her leg.

The nun said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest removed his hand. But, changing gears, he let his hand slide up her leg again.

The nun once again said, 'Father, remember Psalm 129?'

The priest apologized 'Sorry sister but the flesh is weak, '

Arriving at the convent, the nun sighed heavily and went on her way,

On his arrival at the church, the priest rushed to look up Psalm 129, It said, 'Go forth and seek, further up, you will find glory.'

Moral of the story:
If you are not well informed in your job, you might miss a great opportunity.



Lesson 3:

A sales rep, an administration clerk, and the manager are walking to lunch when they find an antique oil lamp.

They rub it and a Genie comes out.
The Genie says, 'I'll give each of you just one wish.'
'Me first! Me first!' says the admin clerk. 'I want to be in the Bahamas , driving a speedboat, without a care in the world.'
Puff! She's gone.

'Me next! Me next!' says the sales rep. 'I want to be in Hawaii , relaxing on the beach with my personal masseuse, an endless supply of Pina Coladas and the love of my life.'

Puff! He's gone.

'OK, you're up,' the Genie says to the manager.
The manager says, 'I want those two back in the office after lunch.'

Moral of the story:
Always let your boss have the first say.



Lesson 4


An eagle was sitting on a tree resting, doing nothing.

A small rabbit saw the eagle and asked him, 'Can I also sit like you and do nothing?'
The eagle answered: 'Sure, why not.'

So, the rabbit sat on the ground below the eagle and rested, All of a sudden, a fox appeared, jumped on the rabbit and ate it.

Moral of the story:
To be sitting and doing nothing, you must be sitting very, very high up,


Lesson 5

A turkey was chatting with a bull.

'I would love to be able to get to the top of that tree' sighed the turkey, 'but I haven't got the energy.'
'Well, why don't you nibble on some of my droppings?' replied the bull. They're packed with nutrients.'

The turkey pecked at a lump of dung, and found it actually gave him enough strength to reach the lowest branch of the tree.

The next day, after eating some more dung, he reached the second branch.

Finally after a fourth night, the turkey was proudly perched at the top of the tree.

He was promptly spotted by a farmer, who shot him out of the tree.

Moral of the story:
Bull Sh!t might get you to the top, but it won't keep you there,

I bought a plot of land in Abuja in 2008 while I was in France. And amazingly, I got the agent through nairaland. Although it was federal government allocation with R of O and AGIS certificate, it was affordable and I could actually risk the money. I asked my younger brother to locate the agent in Abuja and inspect the plots. He did all the transactions on my behalf while I insisted that every agreement and document must be faxed to me. Today my building is standing "gidigba" on that land and no one has come to harass me on the land since I got back in 2009.

My advice to you:

You can actually buy anything you want in Nigeria without having to come over yourself. Just get your trusted one here who would inspect and get a lawyer to sanction everything (might cost you some little extra). I don't know anything about the Eastern part of Nigeria, but if it is Abuja you want a property in then you can verify at the Development Control Office of the Federal Capital Development Authority (FCDA) which is located at Wuse Zone 6 Abuja or at the Abuja Geographic Information Systems (AGIS) Office. Any trusted one can do this for you, may be your dad, mum, sister or brother or even your friend.

Don't wait until you come back home before you buy because there are other beautiful things that will distract you. If you are serious about owning a property, then don't be intimidated by all the negative things you hear about Nigeria; just follow my advice above.

And if you need the agent I used from nairaland here, just indicate here and I would have him contact you. I deliberately didnt put his name here so that it won't seem as if I am praise singing.

Wish you good luck!

Deidei is a town located just 15 minutes drive from the Abuja city centre on the way out to Zuba. It is shares boundaries with the popular kubwa area of abuja. There are numerous projects going on presently that is fast raising the value of property in this area. Primary amongst this projects is the expansion of the main express way into 6 lanes.

Two years ago, a plot of land here costed just N70k! Today, it is going for N650k!

In two years time, who knows, these plots may rise to N10million in value as was evidenced in Gwarimpa and other parts of Abuja.

THE OFFER

There are 4 plots of land on offer at Deidei at the price of 650k each. Two plots are together on one side and the two others are together on the other side. The two groups are separated by another plot which is not for sale at the moment.

Right of Occupancy and AGIS certificate are immediately available.

@Knice, thanks for sharing another opportunity here. Its good let us consider different things one can start up with about 50k. No body knows where his destiny lies. This charcoal thing, never heard of it before! People export charcoal? What do they use it for outside? Then, my grandmother should be in millions by now if she had known! Could you share more details please. Very many thanks once again.

INTRODUCTION

1. It is everybody’s dream to live a comfortable life – one that is void of material needs. Most people realise that to achieve this they need to earn an income. In the days of our forefathers, farming, fishing or hunting provided sufficient needs for a man and his family. It provided food or the means to acquire food and other necessities. As the years passed, western education began to shape the way we live. Going to school now meant one will be learning to earn a good living without the strenuous hard work of the older traditional jobs such as farming and the rest.

2. Western education brought rapid development through the birth of industrialisation in the African continent. More jobs were created and more schools were built to train people who would do these jobs. It was the perfect dream at that time for every family to have an educated child who would be earning an easier living than those in the farm. Such children would therefore be more able to cater for their families without the associated risks of the traditional physical jobs in the farms, rivers or bushes.

3. There was a time when one could easily finish his primary school education and get employed. It was actually that easy. Today, millions of graduates roam the streets looking for employment. In most cases, they end up settling for less than they deserve or have been trained for. Graduates working as waiters, bar men, garage boys etc have become a common sight in our society. This pathetic story makes one to wonder where all the jobs have gone.

4. It is very difficult for students in our polytechnics and universities to appreciate the magnitude of this problem until they are thrown into the labour market on their graduation. While still in school, every student assumes, “it is not his portion” to be without a good paying job soon after graduation. They hinge their confidence on religious faith and/or some influential relatives who could help them secure a good job by “pulling some strings” or through other “connections”. Most of them only realise the folly of this assumption when they have been dealt a serious blow in the labour market. No job.

5. From originally wishing for a good job; they began to admire a “not-too-good” job as long as it would put food on their tables and clothes on their backs. When these not-too-good jobs are not forthcoming they begin to crave for just “any” job as long as they will get something at the end of the month, no matter how small. At this point, maybe some 4 or 5 years after graduation, they do not care less any more. Frustration and despair sets in. Their once beloved “influential” relative is now aggressively hated. God’s existence is questioned. Options of crime and fraud are considered and, in some cases, adopted. This vicious situation lingers on and on with more people suffering this fate, every year, as newer graduates are pumped into the streets.

6. Every student will love to be assured of a good job before he or she graduates. On a few cases, some companies scout the campuses for potential staff from amongst students, especially those about to graduate. This seldom occurs though, and when they eventually do, only the really “hot” heads on campus get the chances. I am talking here of the “first class” people. Even at that, less than one in every five thousand students will ever get this opportunity. That is the reality staring us in the face.

7. Everybody should be concerned with this state of affairs. Whether you are presently a student or not, you should be concerned. Whether you are a graduate or not; whether you are employed or not; whether we like it or not this sad story concerns all of us. But there is a way out of this trap, and that is why this paper has been written; to show you how to beat this trap. The purpose of this paper is thus to present a way for students still in school to enjoy a full time or part time employment alongside their studies. The information contained in this paper is not only useful to students alone. No matter what your present status in life is, you can still benefit from the information that this paper presents.

8. You may have a job presently but you are not satisfied with what you currently earn. You may be a retiree whose pension is irregular and insufficient, or a retiree who is bored and looking for an easy way to keep himself busy while earning a good income. You may be a full time housewife with little opportunity to go out and work, yet feel that you need to earn some income. You may be a job applicant who is seriously searching for a job. You may be tired of your present job but are afraid to quit because of the fear of being unemployed. You may be thinking of buying a car or building a house but don’t know how your present salary will help you achieve that. You may be a student who is struggling to pay his fees. You may be hiding from your landlord because of your inability to meet up with the rent. Whoever you are and whatever your status in life is, this paper has been written for you.


THE BOOK

The title of the book from which the above introduction was extracted is, "How to get a good job before you graduate from the university". It costs just N500 and can be purchased by phone (MTN lines only).

Its a good offer and highly recommended for you.

Cheers,

There are several niche industries enjoying good turn overs which require very little start up capital. The "Concept Publishing" industry is one of such.

Very few people know about this and these are the guys keeping all the secrets to themselves.

Concept publishing is just a term that describes the combination of professional copywriting and self-publishing. Traditionally, this would involve some huge capital to set up but there are ways to beat budget restrictions.

With just N50,000 you can begin on a small scale and then grow your income beyond imagination (, at least, compared to your start up capital). In this regard, earnings of between N40,000 and N100,000 per month are common.

If you are interested in giving it a try, simply call or text 0703-772-5424.

There is a 12-page report which costs just N500. Payment for this manual has been made simple; you can do so through your phone.

Give Concept Publishing a try, its worth it.

, Cheers, Rochefort.
