Marketing in Nigeria

Wow so a close friend of mine who is in the marketing/advertising field was talking to me about Nigeria and opportunities there and I came across a really cool website. If you are in the marketing industry it would be good to check it out. They profile companies, talk about the movers and shakers in the industry and post jobs and how to get in contact with companies.

Top 10 reasons to move back to Nigeria Right now!!!

So my bestie B just came bak from Naija and she is already packing her things and going to move to naija permanently. One trip to Naija has turned her! she is a Returnee! It had me wondering... I really need to sit down and decide. What are the things that I can think of that make me want to move back to Nigieria. Is it just the feeling, is it just the thought of 'oh i moved back' or are there reasons in my mind why I should move back to Nigeria. So I put out my top 10 reasons to move back to Nigeria RIGHT NOW!

10. Food is so fresh, you will improve your dietary habits
9. In naija there's no racial anything. Everyone is black. You can't blame it on race. You just gotta make that money
8. There is nothing here in the states that i cant get in naija with enough money in my bank
7. Because we lack so many things there that anything you bring back with you will make a difference.

6. Africa is relatively shielded from this whole economic bust thingy... they've seen some losses, but not nearly as much as europe and north america will see.
5. If you have banked some money here saving for a house, you can definately for a small fee, ship ur ish to naija, get a place, and have a cushy buffer. Cost of living is low.
4. Opportunities for people with american degrees... even more for health care field
If you are young n looking to get married, there and many quality guys back home ready to settle down...
3. If you are wondering what there is to do in naija, man are you missing out! there's club scene, lunch with friends, tourism places like water parks in calabar, hiking trails, etc, the beaches are hot, people actually wear bikinis now on the beach, you can travel to other states and other african countries... ghana is a hotspot for tourism
2. Going to naija at a young age gives you the opportunity to go, make mistakes, and either rise up, or ditch and come back here and still have time to build up something good without any loss. just make sure to get an open ended return ticket. hehehehe

1. Because if you are not there to make an impact and change nigeria, then you dont matter, so dont complain.
