Well,most of the goods comes in from china.But there are also some from Indians too and America depending on the choice from customers and hospital.
Again,the medical lines are divided into two in the local market dominated by Igbos.There are those who are strictly into drugs, injections,vaccines,etc and there those into medical equipment like beds,IVs , ventilators, test kits,etc

The knowledge for it isn't easy trust me, especially for the first category because there thousands of drugs in the market.

But those who study courses that are in line with medicals will find it easy to do this business.Unlioe my other siblings,I didn't do such courses,they did and it's paying off for them.
thanks bro. I think medical equipments will be better and easier for me. I will make more research on it.

HealthRe: Stubborn Rashes On The Head: How Can I Treat This? (Disturbing Photo) by Selfkontrol: 2:13am On Apr 06, 2020
Serious matter.
Op I understand how your brother feels because I have been in same situation years ago. Mine was just a single spot but keeps growing everyday. I bought lots of drugs and applied lots of things but nothing. Lasted me for two years. I had on several occasions cut it with razor blade but it kept growing back and it was just too embarrassing. It’s a bacteria infection that’s in the bloodstream and needs to be treated from the inside. Don’t bother applying anything on it. what took care of mine was azithromycin. You can easily get it at the pharmacy. Don’t bother going to the hospital because you would end up wasting money everyday.
Get azithromycin one pack and finish it. It would dry up within days and you can peel it off and that it. You can repeat the dozes the next week. After that come back and thank me. Peace
EducationRe: Right Steps To Study For A Masters Degree Abroad by Selfkontrol: 10:14am On Mar 07, 2020
Try to persuade them to set you up for business. A masters degree is not a road map to a good job unless maybe you don’t plan on coming back to Nigeria. But if you’re still coming back to Nigeria, you would still be looking for that same job unless your parents have better connect. That money to spend on masters is enough to set you up in Nigeria.
But if you still want to travel for your masters then Australia and Canada is your best shot but it’s best you go through the Permanent residency route depending on your course to make things much easier for you.
There are bunch of information on travel section. Go through Canada and Australia thread and you will have enough information to kickstart your journey. Goodluck

85% of 2003-7 coros in naija are badly abused, mostly its better to buy a toks than fix naija used.
this one is 09/010 so my fear of it being previously used for Uber is out and you’re right about the 03-07. It’s mostly Uber n bolt cars

Sir please what’s on your input on this one I’m getting
Car TalkFinally Getting An 09/010 Corolla. Advice by Selfkontrol(op):
So guys few days ago I posted about an 08 Honda Civic I wanted to get and got some advice. Thanks everyone for your input. Well I contacted the owner and asked why he was selling and he told me the car is low and his area has bad road and that gave me a rethink. For sure I know the car is low but didn’t think It’s that low that would make an owner want to sell it.

The owner lives in port Harcourt and I live in port harcourt myself and the roads here are not all perfect and besides that I want to use the car partly for bolt business and you never can tell where a customer would take you so that justifies my reason for letting it go. So after reading many threads on ‘car talks section’, I’m finally going for an 09/010 Corolla but a Nigerian used one because to get direct Belgium of same model is around 1.8-2m and way out of my budget.

I’m checking out two and they are going for 1.3 and 1.4 respectively. I’m going with a good mechanic today and check everything and also FRSC to verify it’s Authenticity plus other tips I read on here.

I know we’re like family here I need all the advice pls because this would be my first car thank you

Better go with a mechanic to thoroughly inspect it.

Doesn't add up, 2008 bought brand new means 12yrs but used 4years.

The fact that it was bought brand new or not is not important. What is important is the current state of the car.
yes I thought as much. I will check it properly with a good mechanic today. Thank you

I think it is rather expensive for a used one.

Its a nice car. Good engine. Good gearbox, nice fuel consumption.
Only issue is that it is a low ride.
Pls it does not tolerate abuse
I haven’t negotiated yet. That’s just the price on Jiji. I know I can get it for 1.1-1.2 if it’s good

Good evening all, pls I need advice on this Nigerian used car I want to buy since it’s budget friendly. Owner said it was bought brand new with about 70,000+ mileage and it’s going for 1.350m
Been used for 4 years plus and the owner is a manager like I heard.
I’m yet to go with a mechanic and a car scanner though.
I’m just here to seek advice if it’s advisable to go check out the car because I want to use it for bolt business sometimes thank you

04 can serve bro.. You can even get 05 and 06 with that budget... Trust me.. Those platforms should accept cars for 04...they even accept 03 self.. I guess..

Bro,,,with your budget of 1.6..you can get a toks 04 corrola....
dont buy naija used with that budget
thanks bros but I intend to use it also for ehailing and 04 is quite old. Platforms like Uber and bolt or taxify actually needs newer models

mrjojo:
on no condition should you buy a Nigerian used corolla bro, most have been bastardized yet they always come with "clean, nothing to fix corolla" sale headline. Please stay away. I will suggest you up your budget to say 1.8 - 2m or so, I'm sure you will get a very clean direct tokunbo with that, you don't want to have a problem car as your first, the frustration is not of this world. I don't know much about cars too, but this is the gospel
thanks bro. I understand most Nigerian used cars are death trap but I just have to find something to get. That’s my budget right now. I can’t afford anything more than that for car and I don’t intend to wait because the car is needed urgently. I planned to go with atleast two mechanics. I’m sure I can get a clean car. Even if it’s camry
Car TalkRe: Are There Cheap Nigerian Used Cars? by Selfkontrol:
@Gazuzz pls can you advice me on a good car to buy for Uber and personal use? My budget is around 1.4-1.6
I was advised to get a 2007 Corolla sport or a 4plug Toyota spider but that price can’t get it as a good toks is about 1.8-2m for the Corolla
Is it advisable to buy a Nigerian used 2007 Corolla? Or a spider (4plugs) If not please advice me on the best car around my budget that’s not less than 2006 with good fuel economy and and not so bad interior that won’t give me much problems.
I don’t know anything about cars and this would be my first car. Thank you

You have problem of comprehension. Senseless point as usual. Because this is a faceless forum where you hide behind the keyboard doesn't mean you should sound stupiiid, people call me chat me on how to setup a salon which I always give them advice free to setup the salon wayback 2016. This is recent chat someone chat me. If u need to visit keep asking on nairaland till you are answered oo. You can't just make sense cos you're not clever in any way.
hello bro please I need advice on setting up a standard barbing saloon in port harcourt. Budget is around 1.2m
I want to know if it’s a good idea or my money would be better with a different business since you have a better experience and I saw where you said alcohol business is far better. Thank you
BusinessMy Best Shot In These Three Businesses. by Selfkontrol(op):
Evening all, I’m a young guy of 27 years and just recently relocated to port harcourt from yenegoa.
I have been doing some little online business last year like bitcoin and altcoin trading,and investment, mini importation plus other side businesses and have saved up about 1.5m which I intend to invest in a Physcial business.

I thought about keke business on a hire purchase but after all the advice here from experience folks, I realized it’s a no go area.
So now, I came up with these ideas;

1. A standard unisex saloon with cctv cameras to oversee the day to day operations because I won’t always be there to monitor it.
2. A standard barbing saloon/Drycleaner (laundry). A very big space to run the two.
3. A mini fancy outlet to sell Shawama, pizza, barbecue And other small chops,
4. A mini bar

Please I need your opinions and advice on these businesses from experienced folks here and my best bet and if you have a better business idea, please kindly share. I’m sure people would also learn one or two from this post.

Please I don’t need anyone to tell me about going for what I have passion for. I’m sure I will have passion for anything that gives me money. Thank you

RomanceRe: Need A Man For My Single Mom. Any Idea? by Selfkontrol(op): 8:29pm On Jan 14, 2020
Offpoint:
I'm available, if she can pay me 60k per month to be her companion.

I'm a very jovial, lovely and mature guy...

And precisely, she can't have Jesus and still be lonely.

...........
On a serious note, it's pointless trying to seek a man for your religious mom whom you know if you find a man and her pastor is not in support or she hasn't seen a vision, she will reject him and the circle continues.

Go back home and stay with your mom, for there will be no man who will treat her better than you.
You're her husband now, you carry your Dad traits and she sees him in you.

If you're running away from her because you need a space to go on a fückin spree, I'll look for you whenever you are and knack you jazz.
lmao grin grin aswer bro you’re hilarious. Thanks for your weird advice lol

Okay.

Can you take her to your church sometimes then?
Or get her a club membership in some kind of social setting. I don’t know what you have around you.

But a book club, garden club, etc any thing like that might work .
lol me and church na friend? I hardly go to church. Highest 5 times a year. Doesn’t make me a non believer o lol. I have seen so many rubbish in the name of church. For the club membership, that won’t work. She’s not that type.
