Everyone is complaining about how to raise money. Please, if you want to raise money as a Nigerian business and you have between N100m and N1B in revenue, you're profitable, and have at least 3 years of financial records please send an email to [email protected]

We would like to speak to you.

In your email include the name of your company, the location and what it does.

We have many people in Nigeria and diaspora willing to give you money.

Don't say we never did anything for you.

(Please retweet for reach. Thank you).

We need to learn that “Swedish non-sharing food” behavior that @NaijaFlyingDr referenced in that article earlier.

You need to see how it affects us at the most basic level, to the point where we can’t even distinguish between genuinely helping a customer and being outright careless, disrupting our own transaction data. For example, when we tell 'friendly' customers they can “pay whenever they’re ready” instead of confirming payment immediately upon service delivery.

In some cases, we even allow customers to stay in our short-let apartments for six full days without payment or any prior arrangement, all in the name of being “nice” or accommodating.

We have confused mismanagement and lack of discipline with kindness and friendliness, especially in business transactions. The line between business discipline and emotional softness has become so blurred that it is now one of the reasons 90% of small businesses never scale.

This is a deep cultural issue.

It even reflects at the governmental level, where we struggle to understand what to truly demand from a sitting president or governor, or how large policy decisions and numbers actually translate to our individual lives.

We have a grassroots cultural problem.

“Ceremonies are another example. Weddings, funerals, birthdays, chieftaincy events and religious celebrations absorb large amounts of money.

These events are not meaningless. They maintain relationships, honour family, build social standing and preserve community ties. But they also show how quickly surplus can be pulled into display. In many circles, social proof still matters more than productive proof. People notice the hall, the clothes, the food, the cars, the guest list and the photographs.

They do not always notice the patient reinvestment that builds a business quietly over ten years.”

The effect of corruption be so crazy - one person stealing other people’s salary.

On a normal day , an average kidnapper would be afraid of the wrath of at least one investigator who would go crazy , work heavily, find them and retrieve the victims.

But the current police force who lacks sustenance and motivation would only put up performance not to lose their job. And in the end , even the criminal is more confident than the government enforcer.

Such is the butterfly effect of corruption.

@conductr_ This works more effectively if you’re actively giving out value and finding better ways daily to offer more value. That’s the action component that makes you a world maker - you make things from just pure believe (immaterial) and action ( material )

i know it sounds kinda stupid. but regardless of how simple it is you have to embody being a delusional optimist. you’ll open unexpected new doors and effortlessly 10x your quality of life. there’s no reason to be a self sabotaging pessimist.

Why isn't Nigeria rich?Bad government? Corruption?

Or is there a more uncomfortable explanation: the way we think about money itself?

In my new article, I explore why some societies turn money into capital,while others struggle .

@crudeviews @NaijaFlyingDr According to the article, the latter can do the job but leave out room for expansion of capital but the former follows the rule of ‘incentives creates outcomes’ ; it can buy the government.

[theMoses @ogunrantimoses]

@bayopuddy @NaijaFlyingDr Or why is trust low ? We’re all criminals ?

[theMoses @ogunrantimoses]

@_KingEmeka @NaijaFlyingDr Communicate your points chief, let’s know what you have in thoughts.

That way we learn more from different perspectives , which drives us closer to implementation whether at the individual level or government stages.

[theMoses @ogunrantimoses]

@IamMarkSilas @NaijaFlyingDr You’d likely now ask him again for the deal right ? Please say yes.
