Here's a brief about my current engagement in Nigeria. If you know anyone from Africa who can assist with funding or connections (I have enough investors and contacts outside Africa), please let me know.

🇳🇬 I went to the Idumota market in Lagos, where drugs are sold. I bought Xarelto 10 mg from Bayer from Turkey without a Nigerian registration mark for $10 and Viagra 50 mg from Pfizer from France with a Nigerian registration mark for also $10… 👇🏻

Agbada is the flowing robe traditionally worn by the Yoruba people across West Africa. Ordered a tailor-made one for a friend’s wedding. How do you find the fit? Some say the sleeves are a bit short and the trousers a bit long.

The market is huge, like a city, the largest in West Africa; you can buy absolutely anything there, even prohibited items.

…both without prescriptions and not expired.
Viagra costs 5 times more in Russia, while the price of Xarelto is the same. I sent them to Russia through friends for laboratory verification to check if they're genuine.

It took over a month for the medicines I bought at a market in Lagos to reach Russia. They couldn't be mailed, so I had to find someone to bring them. Today, finally, Viagra and Xarelto from Nigeria, along with Viagra and Xarelto bought in Russia, have been delivered to the

🇳🇬 A quick update on the drug testing - Xarelto and Viagra will arrive in Moscow, Russia, in the next few days, where they will be handed over to a laboratory, and, I hope, within a week we'll have the results - whether they meet quality standards or not, genuine or not.

🇳🇬 Every year, 1 mln babies under the age of 5 die in Nigeria. This is the most shocking data and the hardest discovery for me. The cause of their death is the lack of access to any form of healthcare.
80% of primary health centers in the country are not operational (physically

After two weeks of silence, a Russian lab refused to provide analysis results for Nigerian drugs. And you wonder why I didn't test them within Nigeria. Can't even get it done on another continent! The plan failed; apologies to everyone who was waiting. 😪🤯😡

Stumbled upon a cool book, "A Dummy's Guide to Nigeria's Investment Landscape". It’s packed with insights on what to know about Nigerian economy state by state. Really makes the whole thing less intimidating. Highly recommended.

Portable hand sanitizer sprays have disappeared in Nigeria. I've checked a couple of dozen pharmacies and stores in Lagos and Abuja. I'm used to sanitizing my hands, phone, keys, etc., with a spray. Now, this has become impossible.
