Now that we know sukuk bond was heavily oversubscribed, I will advice investors look the way of VGIF. As you get your excess cash or return money, channel it to VGIF it's still reasonable at this time with Gurranteed rate of 8.5% and extra 35% of funds gains, it will be a good investment choice.

XiaoLi:Devaluation is not an instant developmental process but if managed properly,its effects can be seen in 8-10 years. Yes if you start an industry,they can run on diesel in the meantime while the government is saving all these funds it uses to maintain forex to fix power. When we devalue appropriately,even our high cost of production won't matter as imports will still surpass it by a very wide margin.So why should anyone bother about diesel and maintenance costs? You know a lot of people don't know how much money a working power sector in Nigeria is going to generate for the masses and government too. Why waste all that funds to satisfy Nigerians now whereas we can invest it in phases to fix our biggest problem,if not for political reasons? Also about the security thing,I don't think Nigeria has gotten that bad to the point where truckers can no longer move at night.Infact they even prefer night time sef to avoid unscrupulous police officers on the road,so? And do you think Nigeria is building all these rails,ports and other logistic solutions for nothing? I foresee an end to artificial naira in the nearest future. Its evident already. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Theconglomerate: I keep hearing "what are we producing as nigerians" this statement is very insulting and it shows a lot of people are not really aware about their environment. If you want to know more about producers we have in nigeria then join Business associations, Simple to meet them. MAN - Manufacturer association of Nigeria Abscon Nasme Nassi - Nigeria association of small scale industrialist (am in this group, Abeokuta chapter) Naccima/Chamber of commerce Amen - Association of micro entrepreneurs of nigeria Smedan Etc You will marvel and be surprise by the sheer numbers of business men and entrepreneurs we have in nigeria. Afan - All farmers association of Nigeria (am in this one too) Register with Nepc - Nigeria Export promotion commission with just 12k and be an exporter even with small things like natural african honey and snails and earn dollars. A lot of youths just want to sit at home and the govt should spoonfeed them with money and jobs. To get a loan or government approved loans are very easy. Join any of the above association because they work directly with government and cbn and all loans come through them like Nirsal loan, anchor borrowers scheme (this is still on going in our Nassi whatsapp group). etc As at this January, i was at ogun state/federal meeting where they were begging us to take loans released by government through BOI, BOA, banks like sterling, zenith etc with there representatives there for Smes. Getting capital or loan is not a problem if you have a good business plan etc I applied for 10m this January but later pulled out but my colleagues got theirs after a 1-week compulsory cbn entrepreneurship seminar/class to brush us up. I dropped out because i can raise that money from my salary so no need for it i learnt a lot from the class 17 Likes 7 Shares |

emmaodet:When they don't know something,they still won't keep shut. Nigeria doesn't produce nothing I'm guessing a truck assembly plant came to Nigeria to play. Who do they think is buying all those brand new china trucks? Oil and gas firms I guess. Must Nigeria manufacture planes and machinery before it is classified as productive? I asked one the other day to mention some of the things that Nigeria imports asides machinery and technology that isn't produced here and the guy was dumbfounded. Nigeria does not start and end in your apartment. Go out,get a real business and educate yourself on how devaluation will benefit your business but nah... They rather settle for less and buy 7% fixed income and be chanting how unproductive their Nigeria is and how Nigeria is going to go like Venezuela if it devalues . Well the good thing is CBN is beginning to play ball and we'll see how it goes henceforth than empty bickering. 2 Likes |

Theconglomerate: Bro, you won't blame most of these people. They are schooled and trained in class all their lives for the formal sector (working in an office etc, wearing suit and pressing computer inside AC). They are not trained for the life on the street or the informal sector that is driving most of nigeria industry. They are scared of investing, trying their hands on ideas or floating their own businesses. They are scared of Failing so will chicken out and settle for less by buying bonds and TB instead facing their own fears and if they come out victorious, we smile and eat the fruit of their labor. They will rather go for a 7% investment, rent apartment, furnish and using their 2.2kw gen and start breeding like rabbits. There is more to life out there.

Nnamz: Answer to your question - Many things, many many things. That is why you need to join those business associations to see practical business people with factories, companies and exporters exporting those things abroad. I don't know about advance machineries and medical drugs but a large percentage of what we import are also been produced here by our local industrialists. 1 Like |

emmanuelewumi: Exactly. The people preaching an entrepreneurial utopia are ignorant (or pretending to be ignorant) of the fact that 20% of businesses fail in the first year, 50% by the fifth year and long-term, more than 70% fail - https://www.fundera.com/blog/what-percentage-of-small-businesses-fail. Of those that don't fail, there isn't any assurance of making the owners wealthy either - sometimes the owners are essentially earning employee-level salary. Statistically, for the vast majority of people, corporate work and passive investing is a surer path to success. 5 Likes |

emmaodet: Anybody who is jobless should be prepared to render services, sell goods, manufacture goods and any legal activity that will bring in money. The business environment is very hostile, which is a major reason why people are very careful with their funds. Checkout the percentage of retirees who retired ten years ago. A group ventured into business, while another group invested their funds with established names. Most cases over 90% of those who went into business, would have lost substantial funds and will be poorer. 6 Likes |

emmanuelewumi: At the bolded - of course, what do you expect? It happens regularly when you see people who loses their jobs, retirees and pensioners jump into business and lose all their money. They become depressed, suicidal while some develop cardiac arrest, high blood pressure, hypertension, stroke and most times outright death. What do you expect? When people are not properly trained or get the necessary technical know-how or knowledge needed to run and manage a business. Let me ask you - You know how many years, time, commitment etc youths/students put in to become doctors, engineers, teachers etc. The number of years in classes from nursery, primary, secondary, lessons, books, tertiary level to become what they are? The trainings - Siwes, industrial attachment, NYSC, housemanship to become what they are? Even after graduating and working, they don't give you command immediately because you are still fresh and only knows theory, they niw pair you with an Oga at work to monitor, guide and supervise you? But when it comes to business, we believe because we have money and someone introduced a business idea they seem profitable, you believe and jump into it and expects magic? No commitment, training, mentor, supervisor, guardian, successful businessman to work for free for like a year to model his business plan? No joining of business association to meet like minds and socialize with and tap their experiences? Businesses is just like any other job bro. If you pass through the normal channel, you will have the confidence and boldness to run it. Let me ask you - will you allow a man who downloaded and read about medicine to treat and inject you or carry out surgery on you? Or the one that took his time to go to school and training with govt approved and certified certificate? 16 Likes 5 Shares |

emmaodet: Even among the experienced people, it is not easy. Reason why if you check the top 100 millionaire and billionaires on the Forbe list about 30 years ago, it will be very difficult to find 10 who are still on the list except for Warren Buffet the most consistent member of the Forbe league list. A lot of the members of the business associations, trade association, Manufacturers Association of Nigeria, are still struggling for survival. The Pareto's law is real, 20% of the people or businesses control 80% of the resources or market. While 80% of the people or businesses will control 20% of the resources or market. People should stick to what suits their reality, experience, knowledge, resources and temperament. 10 Likes |
