Agro supplies is also working, buying from the North and sending to South and buying from the South and sending to the North.

Entertainment is also working. You must not be David or oga sabinus. Infact if you have 200k, you can make good money in entertainment...

You see those people doing POS business, they are not doing it only because it's simple. They are doing it because it is working.


Selling recharge can is simple, but people are not adopting it as a business model because it's not working. But there was a time it was working. There was a time when phone booths and recharge card business was working.

I am not a fan of POS business. I will not suggest anyone to do it, but I will not deny that it is working.

The question you should ask? (not a question really, but how you should be thinking) should be ;

What is working?

Like I said, don't try to be a batman or a superman. Don't test new waters except the 44b that was stolen by that minister has found its way to your account.

What is working?

The first place you should check is NBS Nigeria bureau of statistics.

Agreed, a lot of information there are scrap, but you see the information on the small businesses that are thriving,

It's on point. Another problem is that they don't update all the time. But it still gives you a fair idea of what is obtainable.

Hello guys, it's been a while I posted here. Happy New year to all of you holding it down.

This is going to be a long read, so if your name is not Jonathan, and you have no patience, you can skip to the next thread.

"what business can I do with 200k, 400k" etc. Such questions will never stop coming.

Usually, that is the wrong question to ask. That's one of the many reasons we have a lot of failed business.

Let me tell you why that question makes little sense.

People will only give you suggestions according to their bias, what they feel is working probably in their area or what they have experience and capacity to execute. To them, it's pretty easy and lucrative. But it may not be the same with you.

Other people may make suggestions depending on what they see people doing, not knowing what those people are actually doing behind the scenes (the technicalities) to make such a business succeed.

So What is the right question to ask?

There is no right question. Stop asking questions that have no answers. There is no business you can start with;

200k
500k
1Million
10 million
500 million etc

You first start a business with knowledge about the business, not money. After gaining knowledge, you can decide to get a loan if the money you have is not enough.

Except you have enough money to burn to try and do something new, I'll suggest you find what works and learn how it works, then invest.

You should have asked the commissioner that question directly since you spoke with him for 10 minutes.

Another 5 extra minutes would have sufficed.

You can ask him when you go for your next report and share his answer here.

Those who get to this level in police force already had academic degrees before joining the police and some never got to stopping vehicles on the roads.

That's why you will likely find humane persons among top ranks. You see those that spent 30 years in the force before becoming ASP, they have frustrated a lot of road users, arrested passersby in the streets without any offence (I was a victim of this), used their uniforms to harrass those dating their babes etc. If those in these categories become a commissioner, expect armed robbers sending you messages with their full pictures attached.

.

This man spoke like an educated person. I have never imagined a police officer could be that good (no thanks to nollywood and social media rants).

He told the officers to get me a chair to sit (can u imagine that). He spoke to the barrister for some minutes before attending to me, and all I can say is that the man knows his job. He was even giving instructions to some officers on the fone to respect every suspects rights.

Do you know that as the ipo was taking me to see the commissioner he was threatening me not to tell the man that I was beaten if I was asked.

You ended up showing how low the Nigerian police is and has been.
That a state police commissioner would have to interrogate you personally for an alleged crime that is even a civil matter,is just so indicting and clownish of the police that I would have dismissed it as one of those fake stories.
Commissioner of police of a state that would be so busy attending to issues from various state commands,police headquarters and state goverment and delegating officers under him to carry out various duties and functions,invites you for interrogation in his office!
Oh my God!
He doesn't even know his job or so poorly trained that he has no idea what the role of a state commissioner of police is!!

This does not happen every day comrade. I believe it was God cos normally as you have pointed out, the man would be busy on a normal day.

Let me tell you how it happened.

First, the case was handled by the anti kidnapping squad. (can you imagine that. Instead of dealing with kidnapping matters, they are solving debt issue)

The commissioner came to the kidnapping unit for some reasons I do not know. Every one there (about 11 suspects) looked like hardened criminals. I was the only one like a gentleman. (thank God I cut my dreads).

When he saw how innocent I looked, he told the ipo to bring me to his office.

I didn't even know he was the commissioner despite how everyone stood at attention in his presence. I was thinking he was maybe a dpo or something else.

Entering his office was when I realised he was d commissioner. Before I could see his portrait on d wall, one barrister who was there for one of the kidnap suspects came in and called him Mr. Commissioner.

Career / My Experience With A Commissioner Of Police by ublight: 9:24am On Jul 27, 2023
I recently had a business deal go South and millions of naira went down the drain. A contractor I had brought on board for a project had absconded with money, and my partner's felt since I contracted him, I must have been aware of the move, especially as I did not file any report to the police.

I was arrested on Monday and taken to the station for questioning(actually the police head quarters in the state). The police can be so brutal when interrogating (that's a story for another day).

I was later taken to the office of the commissioner of police for the state.

You would not believe my disappointment. I was expecting to see an agile, fit athletic man that can run around, draw out his fire arm to engage in any hostile situation. (too many Hollywood movies right!)

Anyways, I saw one fat, pot bellied, more of a politician looking man. He was relaxed on his somewhat of a rocking chair.

To be honest, I was not expecting much from him (I had judged the book by the cover).

He interviewed me for less than 10 minutes, but his wisdom in those few minutes could be likened to that of King Solomon in the Bible.

What the man lacked in looks and physique, he made up for it in his head.

I then realised that maybe he climbed to that position using more of his brains to solve cases than muscles.

I was really impressed with his judgment. To cut the long story short, I was released on bail. I'm to report back at the station on Friday to see how the case will proceed.

I can tell you that in that station, only the commissioner was civil, well mannered, respectful, lawful. Infact he is the embodiment of what the police force should be.

My question is this. How can such a commissioner be heading touts, imbeciles, uneducated morons parading in uniforms? Don't we have people like the commissioner who can be at the lower ranks?

Let me end here for now. Share your own encounter with any commissioner or police officer.

Business / How I Made 100k In 2 Weeks Using Chat Gpt by ublight: 6:28pm On Jun 23, 2023
Many years ago, 2016 to be precise (not too far back right?) I used to write short stories and sell them online. There were few buyers then, and even fewer now. I would sell a short story of 8k word for 10k in naira.

It was such a big deal to me then. Normally it took a month for the manuscripts to be vetted. After getting paid, I would blow the money up on a ponzi scheme. When it got exhausted, I would write again.

After making about 500k, I started writing rubbish and my works started getting rejected. I even had to negotiate to be paid lesser for the rejected manuscripts.

All that is in the past now as I gave up on the gig.
I started making money from betting and other avenues. I went into farming as well.

Then some weeks ago, I decided to use chat gpt to write a short story and see how effective it could be. (you all know the hype na. I just wanted to see if the AI matched the hype).

I must confess, at first I didn't know how to feed it with the right prompts. It was giving me garbage. Then I went on youtube and learnt how to feed chat gpt with the right prompts. That was a game changer.

I went back to chat gpt and it generated 7 amazing short stories between 8k and 10k words. I quickly reached out to one of my old buyers. Bad news, he is now into politics. I called another buyer, I didn't tell her it was me cos I scammed her the last time we did business ( and I'm not proud of it. Looking back I wish I never scammed her). She asked to see the manuscripts and I sent her 5.

Just yesterday she sent me 100k for the 5. Manuscripts are now 20k, no longer 10k.

The remaining 2 books are very interesting. I want to sell them on amazon kdp.

The 100k I made from the other books, I will use it to promote and advertise these 2 books. Wish me well.
