Business › Re: How Buhari's Victory Will Affect The Oil And Gas, Economy Sectors - The Guardian by TheAlchemist: 3:31pm On Mar 01, 2019 |
We can only expect more inefficiencies within the oil and gas industry as long as the Cabal are in charge. Expect NNPC to be more debt ridden, even if oil sells for $200 per barrel. More Turn Around Maintenance (TAM) for unproductive and obsolete refineries. I doubt their would be any noticeable improvement within the industry. The Nigerian Content Board, becoming more toothless, they can bark but surely can't bite. ... Ibe Kachikwu leaking his wounds and moving on quietly... ooh i almost omitted this Dangote telling us, he can not sell his fuel to Nigerians at N145 per litre. In Dangote's voice, i am not a charity worker. Enjoy the Next Level. |

Honestly i am not a fan of Atiku, but i wanted Nigerian to send a clear message by voting out Buhari, that any president that does not perform would be voted out, if Atiku also does not perform after 4 years, he also gets the boot, until we get the right leader. Sadly a president that did not live up to expectation has been given another 4 years. Sigh! |

[quote author=GemstoneJs post=76118071]I love atiku, nobody can have worse economic policies than buhari, the only reason i voted buhari in 2015 was the integrity and anti-corruption wave he was riding on, or more like i was frustrated with the massive corruption going on under GEJs admin...
Bu corruption till APC is voted out... Even if Atiku loses, i'm satified the will of the people prevailed, especially in ss and se, in south-west that was to be on lockdown for buhari, it was a tight battle, close margins across the region, it shows The Yoruba people are really educated and aren't tribal bigots as some online imbecit even the reason i voted him has been defeated, Nigeria is just as corrupt, if not worse than GEJs regime, we won't hear the full details of theles tend to potray them, they have the voice of their own and many aren't satisfied with this administration.... To the South-west, You all fought hard and fought well Nigeria has seen your efforts
To SS and SE, no be today wey dem know say we tire for APC especially SE, since 2015 sef.. To NE, NW and even NC...... i don't even know what to say sef..(only Plateau votes really reflected what has been going on in the region in the past 4years, Kudos to Plateau for resisting tyranny)
at this point lets keep watching and hoping for the best... our God is a living God Atiku go be our president las las[/quote
I feel so proud coming from south west, all the shout that they would vote massively for Apc because of Osibanjo, did not come to pass. Most of us were greatly disappointed in the performance of Buhari. We really dont care were the presidency comes from all we demand is performance measured by improved economy, jobs, security, etc. In state where there is high level of illiteracy that is where Buhari will shine. |

My personal opinion is this ty Bello and gang packaged jumoke with the hope of landing an international movie and book deal. We see such grass to riches stories of people in our African society landing movie endorsements but such stories where not stage managed. Sadly the international media smelt the fakery of it all. Ty Bello and gang just decided to drop jumoke like a hot potatoe. |

iskay1971: My concern is the kind of evil that is fighting againstNigeria. If nothing is wrong with this country then why is the price of our locally produced rice competing with imported rice? Dangote himself has said, he can only sell his petrol at export price, so those expecting dangote refinery to sell fuel cheaper than N145 are in for a long thing. But with all the concessions he has gotten from CBN and the federal government i was hoping dangote would be pushing for N70 per litre. But our business leaders like fleecing the masses, because government allows it. |

what if you'd caught him having sex with another woman nko, you would have killed him, the woman and all their family members  What if he caught him having sex with another man? reminds me of the film coloured girl, where a jealous wife played by Janet Jackson hired a private detective to find out if her husband was cheating, turns out he was having an affair with a man! Sadly the man had also infected her with HIV. Crazy things do happen in this world. |
Business › Re: What Is Your Worst Business Investment And How Much Did You Lose? by TheAlchemist: 10:34pm On Jan 23, 2019 |
Sharmeenator: This is a recent bad business experience I want to share. I believe one or two people will learn from it. It's a long story but I will try to make it short without losing too much details.
I decided to start a side hustle in 2016; a cyber cafe, business center and payment solutions provider (e.g. IKEDC, DSTV/GoTV etc.). I got a big shop at a nice location, renovated it to look nice and comfortable. The shop was setup beautifully. Customers were given laptops to browse instead of the old PC everyone uses. We were getting positive feedbacks daily and motivations to grow bigger. To cut the long story short, everything was going on well and we were progressing and profiting there until the third month.
My boy called me one morning that he met the door opened with no sign of forced entry. We later leant that my staff was careless with the key, someone must have smartly made a copy from the bunch he carelessly left on the counter. We changed the lock and upgraded the security. 5 laptops, router and money were stolen.
Less than a month later, another burglary attempt was made. This time very forceful; the window was cut opened late in the night and the burglary removed. The most unfortunate part was that no one confessed to hear a sound from the removal (which I'm sure couldn't have been done silently) in the dead of the night. The landlord, a pastor in the church that separates the shop from the resident building wasn't so bothered as no one in the house and his family was targeted. More laptops and money were carted away.
I pleaded with the landlord to allow me to get an "aboki" to stay there at night so he could watch over the shop as the security guards we pay to secure the area are as useless as used diapers. He refused citing religious differences. I was forced to involve the police this time despite hating the idea in involving our men in black. I paid 10k and nothing was done. Detective assigned asked me to investigate personally and call him when I 'catch' thieves I didn't care, we did some diggings and suspected 3 guys; popo man was called and he said he has closed for the day. The following day when we called him again, he lied he was coming and later cancelled the appointment citing official duty despite having tactically delayed one of the suspects. I have sworn never to involve Nigerian police in my affairs again
Almost a week later, a third attempt was made and it became clear we had to leave at least for the sake of our lives. We used less than 6 months there and all these unfortunate events happened within 2 months. We left hastily for another shop not far so we could continue where we left. This decision marked the worst I have ever taken. The new shop, although smaller showed signs of success, so I thought. We renovated it and moved in almost immediately hoping that business would be better there especially with the planned inclusion of Bet9ja and PS2 Gaming. Bet9ja bursted my bubble by not approving the shop, mistake number (I can't tell again). I tried Winners Golden Bet, they answered my prayer but cut it short later when they retrieved their license citing a mistake from them as there was another WGB center not too far off which they didn't noticed earlier. Maybe I would have been given notwithstanding if I had a good connection. I had to settle for Surebet247 which checkmated me to defeat.
Business was over dull in the new environment (no pun intended). Light was over bad (they only have light during our closing hours). We buy fuel of almost 2k everyday despite not making up to 2k (it's that bad) daily. I was practically financing that place with personal money; paid my two staffs from my pocket every month. We did only four months there as that was how far I could personally sustained the business. I sadly laid off my staffs, locked the shop till when my rent expires which was in February this year. I sold off most of the items I didn't give away at ridiculous prices as there was no place to keep them. When I sat down to count my losses, I calculated a loss of 1.6 million (which is surely more than that). I haven't recovered from the unfortunate incidents having spent all my savings. I'm married now with a child this year but I have fallen flat into the same rat-race I was avoiding by attempting to open another stream of income. I will rise, I will fully recover and charge forward. After reading your story i wonder if there is a need to share mine, because if i do i might be accused of plagiarism. i love your can do spirit. |
