LOVE Is Why NIGERIAN DIASPORA Is Investing In Nigeria |

- Nigeria is our homeland. Regardless of the state of it. Good or bad. There are two main reasons Nigerians in the diaspora are investing in Nigeria, one because it’s our homeland and two this is going to be one of the world’s largest economies in a few short years, and money dey here.
Nigeria has the most millionaires and billionaires per capita than all of Africa. Period point blank
So many Nigerians have left for a stable environment and better opportunities. however just because they left doesn’t mean they have cut off all ties to Nigeria. The Nigerian diaspora is one of the greatest assets that Nigeria has. According to Vanguard, The Nigerian diaspora sent 17.2 billion dollars back home during 2020 (the covid year). it’s time to figure out how the Diaspora can play more of a role in the development of Nigeria.
This diaspora pull isn’t new to the world. Jewish people were investing millions in Israel, Afghans were investing in millions in Afghanistan when no foreign investment was interested, Indian diaspora raised 11 billion dollars for India. The love of homeland is a strong reason to do something. And a lot of these investments were raised when the environment felt hopeless and negative but the diaspora believed and hoped for a better future.
Right now, a lot of the news about Nigeria isn’t looking good but it’s time for us to be visionaries and double down, just like any other diaspora group. Many of you are watching this platform because you want to seek a connection to Nigeria, so let’s create positive connections.

Amazing , Optimism rolled into patriotism, respect and regards Ivy leaguer
Really like this sentence "optimism rolled into patriotism"!!
Iveoma is not only an inspiration in my eyes, she is courageous. I love her vision and positivity sincerely. Nigeria is Nigeria! With any system of governance, thread with utmost caution, read the fine prints of legal documents, and put under surveillance all peoples, entities, institutions, etc. Study the Nigerian system and do your own due diligence.
Thank you for your kind words. Yes @ study Nigerian system and do your own due diligence.
You're right. love of Nigeria is my primary reason for investing. I've lost millions due to the collapse of the Naira - but still I invest. Tomorrow will be better.
Wow, you sound like you have been through it all. Tomorrow will be better!!
The Most High Yahusha will protect His people from corruption and the lies of prosperity.
Ahhhhhhh I Love the positive vibes. My people in Obodo Oyibo & at home gotta remember that a negative mindset will never produce anything positive!!
Nigerians here and abroad need to remember that. Speak into existence the positive change you want to happen. Nigeria can be is a difficult place so it's easier said than done. We still have to try, what other options do we have.
Iveoma you are such an Visionary, Optimist and Inspiration with a Plethora of Information and I
🖤🤎💚 your Channel. My 2022 goal is to start making moves in Afrika and so far Nigeria is one Afrikan Country on my list. Global Unity is the Key to Descendants of Africans Economic and Cultural Survival!
☮ & 💙 👍🏿👍🏿👏🏿✊🏿
Thank you for the kind words Shoshana! 2022 is right around the corner, so I know you are very excited about your plans!!
Her Oratory is persuasive, makes me wana start a charity. Lol
🤣😂🤣😂
Sis, you're right. I have been saying this to my friends to see the needs to invest at home because nobody is going to do it but us. Imagine if over five millions of us pull our resources together and invest in every sector of the economy, we will dictates policies and influence government decisions. Rather than doing that, we sit back and complain more than foreigners. I love what you are doing. You will look back one day and praise yourself for coming back home. I just loved you ❤. Money dey here, let them hear it. Thank you, Ive.
Exactly @ imagine how things would be if we pulled resources together. It would be such a massive impact. Thank you for your kindness D.N.
Love this!!
Glad to hear this James!
Pls let talk about how the disporans can take advantage of the food processing & storage sector in Nigeria, cos it's a multimillon dollar industry
Love this topic!! Video will def be coming on this amazing business opportunity!
I second this opinion!
Admirable courage & commitment. U r a true & great daughter of Nigeria! Iveoma, I salute U! With ur kind of doubling down commitment in the face of hopelessness, any country can make it. The more Nigeria's challenges shows up, the more Iveoma roars bak with a greater force!
Your words are so inspiring!! We need to double down and keep pushing for a better Nigeria.
There's a need to leverage "Emotional Connections" the Nigerian diaspora has for their motherland,
and channel it appropriately in the right direction as regards investments. ( "Impact Investing" )
The Nigerian Diaspora needs access to succinct Data & information,
+ needs to leverage Sincere/Competent "Bridge-builders" (like Iveoma)
so as to be guided accordingly, in the right direction.
The Goal is for Diaspora Remittances to evolve into Diaspora Investments,
which could become the largest source of "Foreign Direct Investment",
and can ultimately can be used to shape "Public Policy" positively.
As Oil loses its luster, The Nigerian Government will be forced to undertake "painful but necessary" reforms over the next decade, so that Nigeria can ultimately evolve from an "Oil run state" to a "Tax run state"
Yes @ impact investing!! The data/information is hard to come by but we absolutely need it. So many organizations and businesses are needed in this space. It's quite exciting!! Fingers crossed we can do this.
@@IveomaMedia
Touche !!
I'll send you an email in this regard.
Within the last 30 minutes, I've listen to this msg more than five times! Iveoma, U get power o!!
Wow, glad you like the message 🥳
@@IveomaMedia Cos I jst came bak (2 the US) frm Panama where I've bn thinking of moving to! I've bn preaching the same msg for many years but wen agitators lyk Kanu, Igboho & some others r being hunted down instead of the Boko Haram people, it's really hard not 2 want 2 leave Nigeria.
Excellent talk 👏 👌 👍
Happy you think so Sam!
Oh yes! It is a brilliant video. We can make Nigeria great.
No better way to say it, money dey here😄
#facts
Nigeria is a whole vibe which intensifies the love. Nigeria also has immense wealth of resources including human capital & talent. I feel that Balance is important. Iveoma t so admire, respect & treasure this legacy that you've are building.
Nigeria has wealth beyond measure. Fingers crossed we can see it materialize for Nigerians in our life time. Appreciate your kind words. Iveoma Media will be known as a transparent positive platform!! Working on it daily to get it there.
Thank you for this!
Great video!
Glad you think so 😊
We send money in... they send it out... pointless to me some time... Well i will be more than happy if someone can open a Glass bottle making factory some where between Ogun state and Oyo state.. Nigeria and Ghana are so much in need of this...our people drink Beer and all kind of Drinks but they never ask where is the bottle manufacture from...
Interesting @ glass bottle making factory!! Let’s see if someone is doing this and chat with them and/or find the business opportunity in glass! Ogun would be a great state to set this up in too because so much manufacturing is happening there.
@@IveomaMedia Yup...
@@IveomaMedia I need Glass bottle for Vinegar & Raw Honey packing. cost a lot to bring them in from china
Talk about dangotes tomato processing plant not able to meet its plant capacity because there are not enough tomato farmers to buy from. He is looking for tomato farmers so that his plant can produce more tomato based goods
Great topic suggestion!!
Tanks for this great video
You’re welcome!!
Nice one dear 👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you 🙏🏾
Real estate should be #1 opportunity, specifically land banking
Nice @ land is the #1 investment for you.
There is only so far private investment can go. .There was a time that Nigeria had postal service, mail was delivered to to your house by the mail man ! There was chlorinated running tap water provided by the Ministry of public works , bore holes were something done in remote villages! People have been investing for DECADES! Since independence and yet here we are .A lack of basic living standards , water ,electricity, good roads, also impacts business and development .Also many of those millionaires and billionaires got rich on Government money .Contracts in the billions awarded without nothing to show for it!! I continue to send dollars to help relatives start businesses, pay school fees because what else to do?
Interesting points!! Yes @ Impacts business development. Many of the millionaires and billionaires made money as traders and manufacturers.
Focusing on your family makes perfect sense. Many Nigerians feel the same way you do but paying for schooling isn’t the investment that this platform is focusing on at all. It’s time to invest with a purpose and with a maintenance plan. But it’s WONDERFUL that you invest so much in your family!!
What does ginger mean?
Feel good or get excited = ginger
Without Diasporan investment, Nigeria would have collapsed by now. Before covid, it was roughly $30billion remittance. Meanwhile, no-traditional remittances are not accounted for, so the remittances will be in the upwards of $70billion annually.
Great point about no-traditional remittance not being accounted for!!
@mr wiper, it is nowhere near $70 billion. Like most other Africa/Nigeria-related data, the current remittance figures are estimates, but they include both formal and informal (non-traditional) remittances.
