  • CBN’s circular says the ‘Maintenance charge’ fee IS NEGOTIABLE but the banks will not tell you that!

    Recently, CBN approved a curious and controversial current account “maintenance charge” of one Naira (N1) per N1000 you collect from your current account. This came on the heel of the extinction of COT charges which ended on January 1, 2016.

    You probably have received an email from your bank notifying you of the introduction of this new charge on ALL your debit transactions. However, the banks left out a critical detail in their emails to you.

    THE MAINTENANCE FEE IS NOT MANDATORY!

    CBN’s circular says the fee IS NEGOTIABLE but the banks will not tell you that!

    What can you do?

    If you don’t want to pay this fee, write to your bank and let them know that since the fee IS negotiable, you are not willing to pay N1 per thousand. Depending on the volume of transactions you make, you can request for a total waiver or as low as five kobo (5kobo) per thousand.

    If you don’t do anything immediately, you will be charged by default. The “Maintenance Fee” is NOT mandatory. You can request for a review or waiver.

    CAFON is studying this new directive to determine how to protest these multiple charges on behalf of Nigerian consumers. Until we can do that, you should negotiate the charges by formally writing to your bank immediately!

  • Business News: Coca-Cola acquires 40% stake in Chivita

    The Coca-Cola Company is now a shareholder of the holding company of Chi Limited, Tropical General Investments Group.
    Both companies, in a statement on Saturday, said a binding agreement had been concluded for the Coca-Cola Company to acquire an initial minority equity shareholding in Chi Ltd.
    In the statement by Chief Public Affairs and Communications Officer, The Coca-Cola Company, Dan Baxter, and Head of Performance Management Group, TGI Group of Companies, Dr. Johannes Flosbach, both companies said the agreement creates a strategic relationship within Africa’s largest economy that together serve Nigeria’s most popular sparkling soft drinks, juices, value-added dairy and water beverage brands.
    The Coca-Cola Company was said to have made an initial 40 per cent equity investment in Chi Ltd and expressed the intention to increase ownership to 100 per cent within three years, subject to regulatory approvals, while working on other long-term commercial structures.
    Additionally, the parties reportedly agreed to jointly discuss and explore other opportunities in the region to further develop this relationship.

    The statement further read, “The investment in Nigeria’s leading value-added dairy and juice beverage brands – which include Hollandia and Chivita — further expands The Coca-Cola Company’s West African portfolio of still beverages while establishing Coca-Cola’s presence in Africa’s high-growth value-added dairy category.
    “The agreement will allow both companies to leverage their respective investments and expertise to further drive innovation, optimise efficiency and strengthen route-to-market to accelerate growth and increase consumer availability and choice.”

    TGI Group’s relationship with The Coca-Cola Company, according to the statement, will also help Chi Ltd achieve its ambitious growth plans through access to Coca-Cola’s broad product portfolio and integration into global best practices in production, distribution and brand-building.
    President, Coca-Cola, Eurasia and Africa, Nathan Kalumbu, was quoted as saying, “For more than 30 years Chi’s leadership has built a greatly admired business that has quickly grown to become Nigeria’s leading producer and distributor of value-added dairy and juice products and we are delighted to enter the next phase of our growth journey together.”
    Similarly, Chairman of TGI Group and Chi Ltd., Cornelis Vink, reportedly said, “Coca-Cola and Chi share the same commitment to Africa, to investing in our operations and to continuous innovation, and our relationship will allow us to continue to provide Nigerian consumers the No. 1 beverage in each of the categories we serve.”

  • Controversial: Volkswagen (VW) To Buy Back Cars That Can’t Be Fixed

    As it stand from this year upward, German giant car producer company, Volkswagen may buy back some diesel vehicles that the company can not quickly fix in the wake of its vastemissions cheating scandal last year.

    A lawyer for the company told a federal court in San Fransisco last week that the Volkswagen would likely be able to fix the cars in the future but the timeframe might hamper that solution, according to a New York Times report. The news comes just months after the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency accused the car manufacturer of violations of emissions regulations. More than 10 million vehicles worldwide were installed with a so-called “defeat device” that showed vehicles emitting less than in actuality.

    The idea that Volkswagen might buy back some vehicles has beenpreviously reported but the reference to such a scheme in federal court was thought to increase the likelihood of the plan.

  • See How Much Google Paid the Guy that Bought Google.com domain

    For a single minute in September, Google.com did not belong to Google.
    Sanmay Ved, an ad sales worker and former Googler, bought the domain right out from under Google’s nose using the search giant’s own domain-buying platform.
    Google quickly cancelled the order and regained control of the most-trafficked site on the Web. But the company offered Ved a $6,000.13 reward—the numbers spell out Google, sort of—for uncovering the security flaw, according to a blog post. When Ved said he intended to donate the reward to charity, Google doubled theamount to $12,000.
    Ved wasn’t the only person to get paid for highlighting a flaw in Google’s services. Overall, Google gave researchers $2 million for uncovering vulnerabilities across the company’s platforms in 2015.
