What is the Real Problem behind Nigerian Businesses

I would like everyone reading this post to really think.  Why do we as Nigerians have a problem behind doing

business with each other? These are the comments that will not work: 1. The Government, because the

governments' job it to govern that is a government whose powers are limited by law or a formal constitution. 2. Oil

money, the people that have all the oil money are stopping us from thinking of new ways to make money??  3.

The environment is too bad, that is just like saying that in the olden days when there was no light, no cars, no

printed book life was easer.  3. We do not have the technology around us to use, or the schools didn't teach us

practical, which means what I know, I can't go outside and experiment with it?

One thing I can say that is the biggest problem is Social Intelligence, and the school system.  We are not

Europeans, we are Africans.  Coming up with our own system of communicating will be the key. My team is

building a website http://wazobianigeria.com/about-us/entrepreneur.html that will be the foundation of developing a

blue print for this. This is where I think businesses need to start.  If anyone has any understanding of this, please

email back. Thanks

The Future Of Business In Nigeria

I have been studying business in United State for 20yr and have been investigating Africa for 25yrs.  We in the Diaspora are the once to rebuild Nigeria.  The idea is a Micro Stock market where Nigerians can go and invest $5.00 to $100.00 in a small business in their home town.  Through this process Nigerian at home and around can work together in developing the uniqueness of that particular business.  Plus there is room for everyone to give their talents in the idea/business.  My team is working on a website that will do just that, we will start with Delta State as the prototype.  So if anyone has any comments on the idea, please reply, for the website is still growing.  I encourage everyone to join especially the youth.  The website is http://wazobianigeria.com/  go through the site and join the Facebook fan club on the left of the front page for more details. Oh, the website looks that way because we don't want to reveal the full concept until we are done, but check us out, and leave a comment!!
