1x2x3:
Let's assume in 2009, someone purchased 2,000,000 shares at the rate of N2. This will be a total of N4M invested.

In 2024 which is 15 years later, the shares is currently at N11.
2,000,000 share = N22M + those petty dividends they paid.

Looks like a good investment.



Let's look at what who held dollar would have made just by putting N4M into dollars in 2009 when dollar was $150.

4,000,00 ÷ 150 = $26,666

In 2024, $1 = 1650


$26,666 x 1650 = N43, 998,900 (that's roughly twice the amount from shares in that company)


What about who gambled on BTC?

In 2009 bitcoin was $0.10

Just $1,000 would have given you 10,000BTC

In 2024, 10,000BTC = $672,344,400.


Only if we can see the future





Which investment would you recommend for one presently? Thanks.

NANS condemns tuition hike in tertiary institutions, threatens protest

National Association of Nigerian Students has condemned the planned increment of school fees by tertiary institutions in the country.

In a statement signed by the National PRO, Giwa Temitope and released on Saturday, NANS declared that the government’s action is “insensitive” and “embarrassing”.

The association also stressed that the government has what it takes to fund education and make it accessible, noting that the introduction of the student loan scheme is a sham and a bait to make Nigerians accept fee increments.

The association stated that there is no justification for an increase in school fees across tertiary institutions and Unity schools.

It demanded that the increase in school fees should be suspended, adding that those who have implemented the policy should reverse it immediately.

“We must state categorically that there is no justification for increment in school fees across our tertiary institutions and even Unity schools. Our demand is clear and simple; the attempt to increase school fees must be suspended. And, those that have floated it must reverse it with immediate effect.”

NANS also called on Nigerian students to prepare for an all- round protest until the Federal Government reverses the policy, similar to the one during the prolonged ASUU strike.“We call on Nigerian students to brace up and be prepared for an all- round protest as was done during the prolonged ASUU strike until the Federal Government reverses this policy.

“The increment of school fees at UNILAG and the planned increment across tertiary institutions in the country has shown this administration to be a very insensitive one.

“As a matter of fact, it is most ridiculous and embarrassing that the government will be introducing fees increment without thinking of rescuing over 133 million Nigerian people from multidimensional poverty.

“Increment in fees across tertiary institutions will only complicate the poverty situation of the country and also increase the number of out-of- school children.

“As an association, we believe that the Nigerian government has what it takes to massively fund education and make it accessible. In fact, the student loan that was introduced by the Federal Government is nothing but a sham and bait to lure the Nigerian people into accepting increments in fees payable.

“Beyond the fact that the terms of the loan are ridiculous, history has taught us that not every applicant will be considered. And, even if all of them were to be considered, it still does not justify an increment in an economy that tops the unemployment index. Rather than give loans, the government must provide grants and scholarships for  students.”

Last four days,we have started selling some of our maize for this year storage.thought the price is not that high but we sold @21k per bag bank transfer and we bought it 16k/bag during harvest.
I know the price will increase but the owner(nairalander) want to use his funds for another business.
Therefore,we have to sell it out.

Goodluck to all TRV applicants in this new thread. I started with the previous thread from Nigeria and now I'm in Canada. May it be the same for you.

Remember that approval is not by how many things you submit or how excellent your application documents are. It's mostly a game of luck, who the VO is, "divine grace", and doing the right things. Always keep things simple if you can. Don't appear too desperate by overdoing things and don't be too laid back by not submitting the essential documents.

Before you ask questions, do a simple search on Google and add Nairaland to the end of the search query so that you can see if the question has been answered before. If you need further clarification after that, you can then ask. Remember that nobody is mandated to answer any question here. We are all partners in progress, so don't feel angry if your question goes unanswered. Just ask again and do so politely. Before I became active here, I had read almost all the pages from parts 13-16. I also advise others to do same and by the time you're done, you would know so much about the entire process and could even be an agent if you want.

Please guys don't be desperate so that you don't fall for scanners. I'll be seeing my boss tomorrow and will get back to the engineer and whoever might be lucky. But if you are currently not in the South East or cannot meet up with me at short notice even in this lockdown, then forget it. Whoever I am going to deal with must be on a one on one basis.

Very simple.
Just multiply the number on top by the fraction below to get the number in the middle box.
For number 5.. 10 × 1/2.
The answer is 5. Apply this principle to other tasks.

And that sadness will not depart from your household. Say amen! People look at me and my son play and relate and get jealous. Very sharp, happy young man with an ecstatic father.

The problem with you plebs is you cannot fathom having well-behaved children without first killing them with cane and koboko while garnishing it with curses. I have a superior way of raising children. If you like believe, if you like don't believe. Na you sabi. I done talk my own.

There is a reason why "good children belong to their fathers, while bad ones are their mom's". You women generally don't know how to raise children. You approach the task emotionally while children need to be dealt with with spine.

Instead of you to marry a man that knows what he's doing, you went and married a fucck boy that knows nothing aboutvhiw to raise good children. You better carry your incompetent self away from my mentions.
