Car Wash
This business is good if you can set it up in a strategic location in a place like Lagos where the number of cars is huge.

Ola, Lagos
All you need is to rent a space, buy few materials, employ some guys and you are good to go. You can set it up in a professional way and make even more money.
Rice Farming
Every year Nigerians consume around 5.5 million tonnes of rice, 3.6 million tonnes of it is locally produced ? mostly by farmers for personal consumption.
The land itself is the most essential capital asset for a rice farmer and its worth tends to vary on the basis of the drainage facilities, type of soil and location.
1. Select a site in ecological zones where rice is grown traditionally
2. Choose fertile land with good water retention capacity (containing some clay and/or organic matter i.e. loamy soil).
3. If you have to grow rice for one or more consecutive years on the same land, get the advice of a reputable soil-testing agency.
4. Grow legumes after rice, and plough rice residues into the soil as organic matter and fertilizer.Gowon, Ilorin
