The major factor in Nigeria is oil price. It dictates our economy. Also importation of raw material

On oil price, i think that can be handled in a quick space of time and fast enough. But on the importation of raw materials or finished goods, we still have a long way to go in doing that. I feel that we can raise the value of the Naira even with we been an import-dependent country. Take a look at United King don, Dubai and even Kuwait. what are these country producing? Nothing. But what is the value of their currency?

1 Great Britain Pounds equals N308,
1 Kuwaiti Dinar equals N657.94 Nigerian Naira.

While from the above listed countries, you might say Kuwait is an oil producing country, i will agree. But what excuse do we have when it comes to Great Britain?

Bro, this our traditional monetary policy of "defending" the Naira is one of our problems. Why don't well allow for the real value of the naira, so as to determine the real strength of the naira, at same time work on our economy? How long are we going to continue with this?

Hey bro!

And how do you suggest we do this? Dont you think if we actually need to do this, then its required we do a complete forced revaluation of the naira? So we can then allow the naira to float to its desired value?

But even at that, putting into consideration that we are an import-dependent nation, i think allow the naira to float will be bad at this stage without government intervention or support

Adebayolove:
I think it's a mix of the two. Two entrepreneurs with the same training and resources don't succeed the same way. Some people are more inclined to spotting opportunities where someone with the same training sees nothing.

Shout out to all aspiring and developing entrepreneurs. We shall make it.

shout out to you too bro

Opiosko:
For me, just like good leaders, they are born and made. Then ability to see beyond ur eyes, work alone and sacrificed the present for the future etc is usually inate but will require training either by mentorship or by life's hard lessons. However, as with other human abilities, these traits can be learned.....

I really do not agree that people are born genius or good readers, for the following reasons:

1. Nature: Even Savants who many belief are born genius, science has disagree and proved this sect of people to have one brain malfunction or the other.
2. Improvement: Also you know you can improve on been a good reader, but can you do this with entrepreneurship?
3. Risk: Its relatively easy to try improve on your reading even if you will not comprehend, however this is not the case for entrepreneurship as the risk is no small deal.

Sibrah:
Made! Entrepreneur are made. It involves enough of the right understanding among other factors. Most pple u mentioned up here started up by learning the ropes of a marketable occupation or by meeting a common need in an uncommon manner. [/b]There is also the case of bringing conventional product to relatively untapped market by an investor. Some involves technocrat who can shape and define the business' run operation and work for the Investors.
All of the above involves building the ability to manage the operation and risk of large scale of business - a skill that can be built gradually, meaning they are made.

I must confess i just fell in love with your reply. Especially the words in bold. However, i have a question, when an entrepreneur follows your outlined narration and such business fails, Dont you think he wasn't destined for it?

hahn:
Find a need and seek to solve it or find a niche and try to do things differently. Always learn and improve on yourself and always [b]think outside of the box

Do you think its that easy?
Now lets be little bit pessimistic, what if after working and solving, you still never succeeded?

barry40:
Some people are naturally born an entrepreneur. That is, there is a gene of entrepreneurs flowing in them. They naturally possess the traits of entrepreneurship. Some of these people can either belong to a family where their fore fathers and immediate parents are entrepreneurs. So, they grow with entrepreneurship mind set. The success rates of this class of people is very high.
Entrepreneurs can also be made. The same way that no one is born a teacher, doctor or an accountant. People study to become who ever they like to become. Everybody is a product of what he/she takes in. So, in the same manner, people can learn entrepreneurship but unfortunately our school system has not allowed this to thrive.
Whether entrepreneurs are lucky, I will quote a saying from a man I respect so much. He said, "luck is when preparation meets an opportunity". Therefore, if anyone can prepare himself for an opportunity so that he can quickly make most of it when the opportunity comes, the person will be successful. But to an ordinary man, the person is just lucky.

LOL!. So entrepreneurs can be made, lucky or born?

If i may ask is there a scientific proof to entrepreneurs been born? Or a link to an article with scientific proofs.

I see most people are in favour of entrepreneurs been made than be born, some say they are the two while others are opposing.

Does this goes to say that, entrepreneurs been born or made or lucky, is a statement which answer cant be ascertained?

Omooba77:
Adjusting our dollar to have more value

Stability of exchange rate is more important than it's exchange rate. Fluctuations in exchange rate distorts the market. If President Buhari can keep the exchange rate at N200.00 to $1.00 and rate of inflation steady at less than 5% for the next 4yrs, the market will adjust to that rate and this stability will ensure that people makes money.

My Aboki still dey sell am for me for 220-225 oh
On a serious note,please why do we allow our notes to be sold by every Dick and Harry rather than banks?
Serious contribution only
Cc Jarus, Barcanista

Change that Abo.ki of yours.The Dollar today is 216 @ 313BDC Wuse 2 Abuja.

The volume of forex sold by the Mallams is not up to 5% of Nigeria's total forex market. None of the big multinationals and serious business houses goes to buy dollar in the black-market. Only those in shady businesses and travellers who are not ready to fill forms and disclose the transaction they want to do go to the Mallams. Will it therefore be reasonable to use the Mallam's rate as the real value of the Naira?

Typing

All this happened under the watchful eyes of that clueless man from Otuoke. His people came with vigour to come and loot the national treasury and deplete it completely.

Now Police is caught red handed stealing.
These are people will entrusted our security to their hand. Can any good thing come out of Nazareth?

We are waiting for NNPC audit report.

Thieves in high places when there are hundreds of Nigerians with brilliant ideas that want to rescue the country GEJ went for expired and undesirable elements in the society and he installed them over us, That shows the type of PhD he parades

It's good to have a real president in charge, and not a clueless figurehead. Welcome on board President Buhari.

somwhere in lag, a policeman gives his rifle to a chinese man to take a pic...

Are you the chinese? your username sounds like one

Agree with most of these.. Yet if your partner is using you for an end result, marriage or babies, and not in it 100% because they just enjoy your presence and consider you their true partner, then you are just serving a purpose for them and they do not know how to appreciate you as their partner. Don't plan what you and your partner will do before you meet them... just be happy you are in love and what you decide to do together should be enough. I see way too many happy couples, ruin it, by moving into their "pre-planned ideology" and turn from happy to divorced, miserable, with kids, and feeling like they are both losing out on enjoying life.


Marriage/ Living a married life is easy as A-Z. But we ourselves complicate issues.

This is a big Lie. Osibanjo traveled same day to Sudan to represent Buhari at the Sudanese inauguration of the president

LOL!!!!


Tanoids lol!

I Must make money. Marry a pretty lady j...

Najwal:
But this m2 note is not up the spec of MX4, rather upgrade to MX4 pro or MX5 just my thought

MX4 PRO is a no. I think i am ok with MX4 why go for almost same. MX5 i dont think is on sell yet. But MX5 wont be a bad idea

The Military and her injustice.

If the property were presumably sold by the Military under past Commandant, the current commandant has no right to evict the owners.

Muhammed Idris is showing a very poor and in-disciplined example by not responding to the court order.

If you can not take orders from a higher authority then you have no right to give orders.

Go on. Interested

hahn:
I tire o. What is 200k per anum and 300k for total package supposed to mean?

I'm also interested @ op. I hope the landlord doesn't live there. Do you have any 2 bedroom flat available?[b][/b]

at the bolded. Please clarify. Is the house 200 or 300? also does the landlord lives in same compound?

I just called you and your number is not going. It just switches off.

Do you have any open space apartment? I don't really need partitions. I want to partition them myself.

Also is the rent 300k or 200k?

IbnSultaan:
This information is false&untrue. DSS is in charge of elected Govt officials security including the President
DSS has already provided a head for the presidential detail and he is already in active service
DMI along side the Guards brigades provide different level of protection according to lay down protocol

NB. leave Dambazau alone this conspiracies manufactured daily to stop his appointment as NSA will fail..
2, No private security operatives operate in the Defense house

I am not against Dambazau.

Did you read how M.I Abubakar was appointed as ADC to Pres Buhari?? Did you see Dambazuzu role?

Coming from a supposed adult whom some of us hitherto engaged in arguments with.

Just when you think these things are exclusive preserve of ignorant kids on the forum, you are proven wrong.

Foolishness is indeed contagious.

I was disappointed reading that from PointB.

@Kadas01 you are right. The info is true

xmileeasy:
Is the DSS not carrying out the duties effectively and efficiently. Hope this move, if true, is not meant to favour an individual

The Incoming NSA, has been tipp to have some personal Agendas.

I prefer the Meizu Mi4i to the M2
I want to go for the Letv S1, I'm in love with the design, and some crazy features like; IR Remote, MHL, OIS camera, USB type-C, MTK helio x10 processor... You can't find any phone within this price range with all these qualities
If I can get extra cash, I'll go for the pro version.
Can you help me get them? And how much respectively?

Yes I. An help you get them. Contact me. My Bbm pin on my profe

john1035:
I know you are a fan of Chinese phones, don't you think Elephone P7000 or preferably, LeTv S1 are better options?

Elephone

I will never try telephone again. Not after importing their ElephoneP2000 hailing them later just a month phone started misbehaving. Packed up. Though I sent it back to the factory where I bought it. But I noticed it happened with some other elephone phones.

I got 43 of that phone for mass sell. Never in my life. I will only buy an elephone after multiple review by people no need to rush. Beside its time the company up their game. They are releasing too many phones in a short time, without perfecting the one they have.

Though the elephoneP7000 looks promising , but this is base on Read and not physical looks.

[hr/]

For Letv , that's a phone, I love the looks but there is one thing I noticed, if you fall in love with a brand of good quality you do will never want to leave that brand. But for now my interest or fancy wasn't captured by LetV rather Meizu did.


If Ain't Meizu it ain't a phone. #FlyMeOS

Smiling.

Am happy to see I paved the way for meizu here.

Am getting one too. Its time to drop my meizu MX4
