Oando Announces a Delay in the Publication of its Full Year End 2019 Financial Results & Q1 2020 Management Accounts

Lagos, Nigeria – Pursuant to the direction of the Nigerian Stock Exchange (NSE) this is to update our valued shareholders and stakeholders of the delay in the release of Oando PLC’s results for the twelve months ended December 31, 2019 (2019 Audited Financial Statements) as well as Q1 2020 Management Accounts within the due dates of May 29, 2020, and June 29, 2020, respectively as prescribed by the NSE Rules on Filing of Accounts and Treatment of Default Filing.

On Monday, June 10, 2019, the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) notified the public and Oando that, further to the Ex-parte Order of the Federal High Court, Ikoyi, Lagos in Suit No: FHC/L/Cs/910/19 in Mr. Jubril Adewale Tinubu & Anor v Securities & Exchange Commission & Anor, it had suspended the Company’s 2018 Annual General Meeting (AGM) till further notice.

Following the SEC’s suspension of Oando’s AGM, the Company has been unable to appoint Auditors to commence the Company’s 2019 audit exercise. The mandate given to the Auditors at the 2018 Oando AGM, by the shareholders, was to audit the Company’s FYE 2018 financials and not any other year.

The suspension of the AGM has resulted in the following amongst other things:

  1. the inability of the Directors to lay before the shareholders for approval, the
    Company’s 2018 Audited Financial Statements;
  2. the shareholders’ inability to re-appoint the auditors of the Company to hold office for the 2019 financial year;
  3. the inability of the Company to meet its FYE 2019 NSE Filing of Accounts obligation within the due date of March 31, 2020

Oando PLC apologizes for any inconveniences caused and will update the market on the outcome of the above-mentioned case in due course.

Nigerian Government Going To A Gun Battle With Stick In the COVID-19 Fight

Lagos, Nigeria —July 9th, 2020, Nigeria’s Number 1 online brand insight magazine, Brand Spur, in a webinar, explained the impact of COVID-19 on Marketing and Sales in this New Normal.

  • How COVID-19 has affected our lives as marketers and sales experts
  • Different observations during the lockdown
  • Identifying and leveraging on new opportunities during and after COVID-19
  • Possibilities and opportunities that come out from COVID-19

In spite of the surge in the novel Coronavirus pandemic that sprouted across the globe leading to the lockdown of world economies, many measures have been taken from world powers to protect their economies. The appearance of the virus is unprecedented and unexpected.

However, it seems the Nigerian government is bringing sticks to a gun battle in terms of how it has performed so far in its plans to halt the spread of the virus in the country.

Marketing and Sales in the ‘New Normal’ was the pressing topic of discussion in the webinar hosted by Brand Spur.

Given the wide-ranging effect of COVID-19 on businesses in Nigeria especially, the way marketing and sales are being done has been evolving since April 2020 and experts are looking for insights into new ways of targeting and reaching their customers as well as how to deploy their strategies effectively.

The advent of the Coronavirus pandemic can be described as a ”Movie without a Script”, as Sales and Marketing people are plunged into it without being given the option to rethink their strategies before the lockdown experienced in April, which affected logistics and distribution of goods, especially in the manufacturing sector.

Speaking at the webinar, Mr. Oluyemi Oloyede, General Manager of Kerry Tasty and Nutrition, Nigeria, said:

”As we are eased in the lockdown, brands and companies have adjusted their strategies and execution leads into the ‘New Normal’. Marketers didn’t enjoy the total lockdown because they are used to being on the field”.

Speaking on what was observed during the lockdown; Mr Oloyede explained the stages of the lockdown as:   

  • Panic-buying in March and April: leading to spikes in late March and early month of April
  • A rise in the demand for certain products categories: making people demand more for home deliveries for appliances.
  • Very low demand for the mainstream of alcoholic brands
  • Rise of the modern retail channel: online sales rise up
  • More local brands were adopted: land, airports were closed leaving people with the choice to accept what is left fr them (local products)
  • Pressure points: people are spending more money on foods and are experiencing pressure points.
  • Telecommunication Wins: the likes of DSTV, MTN, Airtel, even people who don’t know about Netflix joins the trains and subscribed
  • The rise in social enterprise and NGOs into recognized entities
  • Brands care: Brands exhibiting their concerns on people’s safety by showing support for the government’s efforts for the fight against the virus

Identifying and leveraging new opportunities during and after COVID-19, ”Many brands go out of their way to invest in new opportunities. I have seen 2Sure from PepsiCo and hand sanitizers from Kasapreco; these brands are leveraging opportunities that are relevant right now, which will still be available after the pandemic,’‘ he commented. 

Some businesses will fall out of opportunities because of the pandemic; ”various businesses exist before the pandemic and are not going to exist after the pandemic. Louis Vuitton as an example has filed for an administration; also, several others are either declaring bankruptcy or shutting down outrightly” Mr Oloyede added.

Meanwhile, it is worthy of note that businesses should prepare for the following: 

Shrink before Growth; you must be emotionally and physically prepared by making review to budgets as businesses will need to dig deep to cope with their shrinking bottom line.

Channel prioritization: There will be a massive shift in the way value chain management and distribution strategies of businesses. The e-commerce landscape bodes new opportunities for driving convenience and meeting the needs of shoppers.  There will be a need for several businesses to prioritize their route to market decisions based on current realities.

Investment opportunities: Marketing, Trade Marketing, Insurance and health care, technology, education, are areas where investors will put in money in the coming months as these sectors hold huge opportunities and potentials.

NIPC records 66% decline in Investment announcements H1 2020

The Nigerian Investment Promotion Council (NIPC) reported a 66% decline in value of foreign investment announced from H1 2019 to $5.06 billion in H1 2020. This decline was mostly due to a decrease in offshore investments which made up 77% of the H1 2019 investments.

90% of the announcements were for investments in the Transportation, Information and Communication and Mining & Quarrying sectors with Kaduna state being the recipient of over 50% of the investments.

The Commission continues to send out its NIPC Intelligence Newsletter 6 days a week and tracked a total of 34 projects across 16 states, FCT and the Niger Delta Region from January to June 2020.

The top destinations during the period were: Kaduna State (US$2.61 billion), Lagos State (US$221 million), Nasarawa State (US$56 million), Ekiti State (US$50 million) and Cross River (US$15 million).

Similarly, the top 5 sectors were transportation and storage (40%), information and communication (32%), mining and quarrying (22%) finance and insurance (68%), agriculture (20%), agriculture (6%) and finance and insurance (3%).

The United States of America was the most active source of investments during the period with 43% of the announcements. The other major sources were South Africa (31%), domestic investors (16%), and the United Kingdom (8%).

NIPC’s Intelligence Newsletter culls Nigerian investment-related news from various sources. The Report is based only on investment announcements cited in NIPC’s Newsletters from January to June 2020 and it may not contain exhaustive information on all investment announcements in Nigeria during the period.

Nevertheless, the Report gives a sense of investors’ interest in the Nigerian economy. NIPC did not independently verify the authenticity of the investment announcements but is working on tracking the announcements to facilitate their progress to actual investments.

B2B Cross-Border Payments to Grow by 30% to $35tn by 2022, as Business Activity Slowly Rebounds

B2B Cross-Border Payments to Grow by 30% to $35tn by 2022, as Business Activity Slowly Rebounds

A new study from Juniper Research has found that the total value of B2B cross-border payments will reach $35 trillion in 2022, from a COVID-related low of $27 trillion in 2020, representing 30% growth.

However, the long-lasting economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic means that cross-border values will only exceed 2019 values by 2022, highlighting the effect that this major economic disruption will have on businesses around the world.

In the post-pandemic recovery phase, businesses will be more cost-conscious, meaning that cross-border payments vendors must offer compelling cost propositions to companies, or they will fail to recover lost traffic.

Instant Payments’ Biggest Benefits Yet to Come

The new research, B2B Payments: Domestic, Cross-border & Instant Payments 2020-2025, identified that instant payments, services where funds settle in 10 seconds or less, will account for 9.3% of B2B transactions by volume in 2022, up from 6% in 2020. However, instant payments will only account for 6.3% of B2B transactions by value in the same year, illustrating the predominantly low value of these payments, due to low transaction limits for schemes.

However, the greater value of instant payments adoption is in the new capabilities the schemes enable, as research author Nick Maynard explains: “Instant payments schemes are built on ISO 20022, which unlocks additional messaging capabilities. These can be used to inject transparency and build new services such as automation, which will add significant value to complex accounts payable processes”.

Blockchain has High Potential but Needs Development

This efficiency, enabled by services including RippleNet and Visa B2B Connect will be critical in enabling these operators to compete with innovative non-bank players. Operators must trial new systems now and refresh their business models, or they will lose market share in a highly commoditised post-pandemic environment.

Ogun State Begins Work on Ojodu Abiodun, Akute Road (Photos)

The Ogun State Government has assured residents of Ojodu Abiodun, Akute in Ifo Local Government Area of the State that the State Government would immediately commence work on the 4.65-kilometre road at the end of the current raining season, with a promise to deliver a brand new road.

The Commissioner for Works and Infrastructure, Engr. Ade Akinsanya who gave the assurance while speaking to newsmen shortly after inspecting palliative work on the road, said that the palliative work currently going on in the area was just a temporary measure to reduce the hardship of road users, adding that the road is part of the economic linkage the Prince Dapo Abiodun-led Administration in the State was looking to revitalise.

Aside from the 4.65-kilometre Ojodu Abiodun/Akute road, Akinsanya also disclosed that the road coming from Sango to Akute, where the bridge can be seen would also be done, calling on the people of the State to be patient with the State Government in its resolve to make roads across the State motorable.

He emphasised that palliative works would be done on Ojodu Abiodun-Denro Ishashi-Ajuwon-Akute Alagbole-Yakoyo, and Alagbado-Oke Aro-Lambe-Matogun Roads and their environs.

“This road is a vital road. It is a road linking us with Lagos State. It is part of the economic linkage this Administration is trying to revitalise in this area. The new road is coming very soon. The design is ready. To make it motorable when it rains is the reason for the palliative work we are doing here today.

There has been a lot of complaints on the road, but the Governor has directed us to make it motorable, even in the interim.

“There will be a brand new road linking this place to Lagos. It is a 4.65-kilometre road. At the same time, the road coming from Sango to Akute here where you see the bridge – that also will be done,” he said.

A resident and pastor in charge of First Baptist Church, Akute, Reverend Ayo Ojeleye, while commending the State Government for the palliative work on the road, called on the Government to as a matter of urgency come to the aid of the people in the area.

CITIZEN Asia Limited Promaster NY011 series

With the same iconic look, a larger 44mm size, and new features.

 

SINGAPORE
– Media OutReach – 20 July 2020 – 

 

Bigger
and better at 44mm

The original Promaster NY004 diving
watch that was released in 1989 was the basis for the new generation of Citizen
Asia Limited Promaster NY008 series watches
that were released since 2018. These two collections, with the first in 2018
coming mainly on rubber straps, and the second in 2019, coming on stainless
steel bracelets, have been a critical and commercial success.

Fans of CITIZEN have lauded these
collections for their robust technical features, the unique back story of the
original Promaster
NY004 series being used by the Italian Navy, and the affordable price point
that made them accessible to everyone. Most interesting however, the Citizen
Asia Limited Promaster NY008 series came with an engraving of a “Fugu”, or
Japanese for “pufferfish” on the caseback, which was in acknowledgement of the
nickname given to the original Promaster NY004 series diver by fans. This was
due to the distinctive shape of the bezel – designed with curved and sharp
edges that made it easy to grip in wet conditions – that reminded fans of the
pufferfish. 

 

With the aesthetics of the original
firmly established, CITIZEN has decided to use the same well-loved formula found
in the 42mm Promaster NY008 series and create a new version in a larger 44mm
size. This not only comes in line with modern preferences, but gives another
option for fans to be able to choose the size that fits them better.

 

In the new, Citizen Asia Limited Promaster
NY011 series, the signature design elements have
been retained, such as the bezel with serrated teeth for easy gripping in wet
conditions, as well as the new design of the hour markers that was introduced
in the Promaster NY008 series in 2018.

 

The new collection though is not just
about a larger 44m case size. In fact, aside from this, there are a number of
new features that the collection introduces to the family of the Citizen Asia
Limited series, that watch fans will certainly appreciate.

 

New
features

 

The headline feature of the Citizen Asia
Limited Promaster NY011 series might be the larger 44mm case size, but there
are other notable ones that greatly increase the value proposition on offer.
These technical additions not only increase the performance of the watch for
diving, but also make the overall ownership experience more satisfying.

 

The first feature is the use of a
sapphire crystal instead of the mineral crystal that was used in the previous Promaster
NY008 series. Sapphire crystal is more expensive and typically used in watches
that are higher in price. This is because of its main advantage, in that it is a
harder material that resists scratches. This means that it will resist rough
handling better, and allow the crystal to retain its function of allowing the
owner to read the time clearly. This is in contrast to a mineral crystal, which
can pick up scuffs and scratches over time which can mar the look and
functionality of the watch.   

In
terms of the diving bezel, there is a notable upgrade in functionality. This
time, the Citizen Asia Limited Promaster NY011 series comes with 120 clicks as
opposed to the 60 clicks of the previous collections. This means that it has
the ability to more precisely define a dive time when it in used. Additionally,
it also means a better feel in the hand as the bezel is rotated since it is
more precisely made to higher tolerances.   

The Citizen Asia Limited Promaster
NY011 series will also feature a new polyurethane
strap that by all appearances comes with the same technical features already
found in the current polyurethane straps supplied with diving watches. Not only
is there a N.D Limits table printed on it to help divers calculate
decompression times, the strap is also rippled towards the watch head, in order
to compensate for the compression of a wetsuit sleeve underwater at depth and
so ensure that the watch remains securely on the wrist.

 

The main difference is that the new polyurethane
is softer, and more durable than the previous version, which helps with greater
all-day comfort on land or in its native environment, underwater.

 

Finally, the laser engraving of the
“Fugu” or puffer fish that is found on the case-back of the Citizen
Asia Limited Promaster NY011 series will appear slightly differently than that
found on the Promaster NY008 series. While the design of the “Fugu” remains the
same, the appearance of it will be more defined, and this is because it is
etched deeper in the engraving process.

 

The rest of the technical specifications
of the new Citizen
Asia Limited Promaster NY011 series will be
familiar, as the watches will use the proven in-house cal. 8203 movement, have
200m water resistance and be compliant with the ISO 6425 standard for diving
watches.

Fully Lumed Dial

One of the popular dial variations of
the original Promaster
NY004 from 1989 was the one with a fully lumed dial. Unlike most watches that
have lume applied on hour markers for time telling in the dark, these watches
had lume applied instead, on the dial. Hour markers were typically not lumed so
that they would contrast against the generous amount of lume on the dial, and
so be the points by which a user could reference to tell the time.

A fully lumed dial is comparatively
rare, with only a few brands having made watches with them before. CITIZEN has
always been one of the brands known for producing this type of dial, and so,
for aficionados of lumed watches that wanted the ultimate visibility of the
time in the dark, the original Promaster
NY004 was a popular option.

 

CITIZEN introduced this dial again in
2018 with the NY0080-12X, and again this year with the new Citizen Asia
Limited Promaster NY011 series.

 

The fully lumed variant of the Citizen
Asia Limited Promaster NY011 series is three
times brighter than that used in the previous Promaster NY008 series. Not only
that, because the dial is bigger, there is more lume overall, which makes the
brightness that can be experienced under low light even more apparent. This
particular model is limited to 2,000 pieces, with each piece carrying its own
series number on the case-back.

 

Variations

 

The new Citizen Asia Limited Promaster
NY011 series will come in four colour variations,
all mounted on polyurethane straps. There will be two black dial variants, one
with a bezel in red (for the first 15 minutes) and blue and the other in blue
(for the first 15 minutes) and black. Then, there will be a white dial variant
with a black bezel, a relatively uncommon combination in a diving watch.
Lastly, there will be the aforementioned fully lumed dial variant with a black
bezel.

 

The watches will be
available towards the middle of 2020 in the following markets -Singapore,
Malaysia, Thailand, Vietnam, Indonesia, China, Taiwan region, Hong Kong SAR, Philippines,
and Cambodia.

OPPO Mobile Nigeria signs multi-million Naira partnership deal with Tacha

Nengi Akinola, Marketing Manager, OPPO Nigeria explained that the decision to partner with the Reality Star and Serial Entrepreneur was based on the interesting persona she possesses and her charming aura which makes her a perfect fit for the youthful brand essence of OPPO Mobile.

Tacha’s story is one many young Nigerians can connect with, she has shown ambition and a fighting spirit even in the face of adversity. For OPPO, this connects perfectly with the genuine desire to rise to the top of the Nigerian Smartphone industry in a very short time. We are sure that the partnership with Tacha is a positive step in the right direction.

OPPO Mobile only launched in Nigeria in April 2019 and has quickly become a force to reckon in the Smartphone industry. It has been impressive to see how OPPO Mobile has shown dynamism by having a different approach to the Nigerian market without losing the essence of the true Nigerian culture.

The brand has also shown a willingness to support Nigerian talent, from photography to videography to content creation to modelling; OPPO has indeed made a strong statement that it is not just a brand that promises but also a brand that changes lives.

Will the Tacha partnership be a good move for OPPO in its continuous rise to the top in Nigeria? Only time will tell.
