FIRST STEPS FOR NEW ENTREPRENEURS
WHY SHOULD I WRITE A BUSINESS PLAN?
An important question that you should ask yourself early in the venture planning process is whether you should write a formal business plan. While many things may be occurring at once when a venture is being formed and you may be challenged for time, there are a number of very good reasons to put together a business plan.
FIRST:
A business plan helps provide direction by making you discuss where you want to take the venture and define what you want out of it.
SECOND:
A business plan provides structure to your thinking and helps you make sure you’ve covered all of the important areas.
THIRD:
A business plan prompts you to think about the future. For instance, a business plan might help you consider what you would do when, once your venture is developed. It attract several competitors. A good business plan will include ideas for dealing with new competitors in your market, helping you prepare your business for this situation.
FINALLY:
A business plan will help you communicate your idea, not only to financiers, but also to employees, potential employees, suppliers, and customers. As a communication tool, a carefully developed plan will provide something that other people can react to. You can use their insights to help you develop a more successful venture.
SECTION ONE 1
⚫️Business Denoscription:
As an introduction to your business, this section should provide an overview of the business and it’s objectives. Readers of your business plan will want to know why this business should exist in the first place. Having a mission statement will help communicate this.
📍Mission Statement:
As you begin your business venture, the first step is to clarify what is most important to you. Having a clear purpose provides readers with the context of the venture and will give it meaning. Often a statement of purpose-a mission statement-is written to outline intentions and motivations.
To write a mission statement, first consider the things you care about or want to do. A mission statement communicates the purpose and principles of what you’re doing and why you’re doing it. A good mission statement should accurately explain why your venture exists and what it hopes to achieve in the world. Write a brief paragraph that is free of jargon. At the very least, your mission statement should answer three key questions:
1. What are the opportunities or needs that you exist to address?
{the purpose of the venture}
2. What are you doing to address these needs?
{the business of the venture}
3. What principles or beliefs guide your work?
{the values of the venture}
Your mission is the beacon of your venture. All other actions in your business plan should help you accomplish the mission. Communicating your mission with clarity is important because the goals you set, actions you take, and the way you spend your time will be guided by this statement.

Episode 1
Statement by Salama of Rabah, {Recorded in Sokoto, August 1966 on 278 feet of tape}
Account of the murder of the Premier of Northern Nigeria 🇳🇬, Alhaji Sir Ahmadu Bello.
Well! On the day they killed the SARDAUNA, about ten at night he went upstairs to bed and lay down. I likewise. He was upstairs, I was downstairs in the same house, him up, me down. As I was lying there, about one in the morning, I heard a shot, ‘bang!’. I said to myself, ‘Has the SARDAUNA let off a gun?’ I arose and hastened upstairs, and as I did so heard more shooting. We this not whilst I was going upstairs? They were firing even as I went up the stairs.
I entered the room. Himself was very calm and collected. He was toying with his prayer beads, telling them, telling them, I said, SARDAUNA!’ He replied, ‘Here am I.’
I said, ‘Hey, what’s afoot? Come out quickly.’ He said he was not budging. I got hold of him and tugged him and together we got ourselves out of the room, he and I, and went downstairs.
The whole household was in turmoil. I said, ‘Stop shouting. See! he is clear away. Come out carefully; stop shouting, see he is clear away. It is i Sallama! Sallama!’
So it was we got him out. The women of his household watched as we did and we all came out and mostly sat down. Be he continued standing. He was completely calm and said never a word. All he did was tell his beads. We continued standing there until I wearied of standing up. I said to him, ‘Come, sit down.’ I took hold of him and sat down, like this {squatting in a corner indicated}. If you look at this hand {right indicated} then you will see where he was. He sat down.
Then, one man - a soldier - flashed his light upon me. All of a sudden, he spotted me and looked at me thus {peering indicated}. He saw me and I saw him, he picked me out {in his light} and peered at me.
Then, he said, he said, ‘Bah! we have botched up what we were seeking to do!’
Suddenly, the SARDAUNA made a quick move. This was when he had first seen the pistol 🔫 and sought to put the man under restraint. But I said, ‘You are not going!’ I prevented him from moving.
Then he, the other one, stopped in his tracks. He pulled out a pistol 🔫; he pulled it out, when he saw the SARDAUNA. Then he shot him - in the open - in the open space in front of the house, there, where the cars were parked, in the car park, that’s where he shot him.
One of the wives was here and me, I was there {position indicated}. He fired again and shot the woman.
Then I said to him, ‘You there! Come here, finish me off! Kill me too!’
But he said that he had done all he needed and went on his way. Now you know what happened!
The chief wife was shot dead, with just two shots in this side {indicated}. The lady toppled over, as for him, me, I held him tight. He was still upright, and I hugged him, I myself did, and all his blood washed over me.
We were all together in a group. Many other people had fled, and apart from me when he went outside, there were only the three women, huddled together. Both she from Kano, and the junior wife, the two of them are here now {then}. For, it was the chief wife who was killed, and they did not kill the co-wives.
There we were, in the open, gathered together. He did not hide himself, we sat there in the open. We just packed tight around him. Everyone else had run. They had panicked and scattered. Only I and his three wives were there.
I, for my part, I held him close to me and we sat therefore tight together. Then he shot him!
He came out with a lamp that was in the house. First time he went on his rounds he saw nothing. Only, when he came out into the courtyard, then did he see him and shoot him.
It was a hand lamp which he had, a torch m. We were all there together, the women started up when the shit him. Not one word did he say, he never said a word. No one spoke. He never said anything.

As for me, I held him tight, I embraced him thus, not a word did he say, he only kept on telling his beads.
There was a good deal of shooting. In fact a great deal, Ka-Ka-Ka-Ka-Ka-Ka. There was a lot of firing! He was shot with one burst and hit in the head. The wife was shot twice, here {indicated right side}. Well, it was dark!
From the first shot which they fired, until they killed him, a full hour elapsed. They fired off their guns first of all, until, all of a sudden, an explosion occurred. Well! then they just kept on firing, non-stop.
His bed, the king size one, was the first thing to catch fire. There was just a blaze in the upper story, and the firing! I, you must know, am the only person who saw the fire from the start until it burnt itself out. Everything in the house, all the Islamic objets d’art, were destroyed. Not a thing was saved.
It was the Vizier’s daughter who was shot dead. As soon as I knew, I left her alone and did not give her preferential treatment.
Everyone by now had run away. There was no one left but me. So I called out for others to help me and two men came. Then I got out a mat. You know what a ‘wundi’ is? Very well, a ‘wundi’ was laid down by two of us, Umar and I.
Then Buba and I, Sallama, rolled him on it. We did not arrange him properly. I did not lay him out at all. We just pushed and shoved and dragged him into place, then we brought another mat and covered him over.
As for the woman, for her too, we brought a ‘wundi’ and I myself put it down. She indeed we handled with decorum, we picked her up, and laid her on the ‘wundi’ and then we brought another and covered her over too.
When daylight came, then people came too. What happened to me was that I was arrested.
Then someone said he should be taken to Sokoto. Someone else said that there was no means of going to Sokoto m. Therefore, he was taken to the Sultan’s House in Kaduna. A car was brought and he was put in it. The remains of his wife likewise, and they were taken away.
I was taken away. When the people came, that’s what happened, then, I for my part was arrested. I did not go to where they buried him. I was taken away and locked up for a time. Until it was all over. Look! the firing ruined my hearing. I do not hear properly now {then}. You know that formerly, I heard excellently. But speak now and I have to try hard to hear because of the shots!.
You ask whether he knew that they were coming. He certainly did not tell me. But how could he possibly have known that! Even if he did know he did not tell me! He didn’t know, not when we went to bed. Everything was fine when we went to bed. He didn’t know they were coming! What I do know is that whether he knew or not, he never said a thing. Not one word did he speak.

Statement of Hajiya Habiba
{Hajiya Habiba was the Government Housekeeper to the Prime Minister’s official residence}
The murder of Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh and the Abduction of the Prime Minister.
On the evening of January 14th 1966 the Prime Minister called a meeting at his Onikan Residence. The few Ministers who were able to attend were all Ibos - poor man, not knowing that only a few hours remained for him to live, those that he loved and trusted were the same people that planned the January coup.
Being the month of Ramadan, the meeting came to an end at about 9.00pm. Lagos was quiet, but at about 2.00am on the Saturday I heard a gun shot. I woke up frightened and I peeped from my bedroom window to see what was the cause. Then, to my surprise, I saw an Army Landrover parked near the Island Club with soldiers.
I assumed that they had been sent to come and guard the Prime Minister’s house because on the Friday morning, the Market Women had had a peaceful demonstration about what had been happening in what was then the Western Region.
As the house of the late Minister of Finance {Chief Festus Okotie-Eboh} was close to the Prime Minister’s, I could see people running about in it.
Somebody was crying, begging and pleading with the Army people that they should let him go. I heard someone telling him to get in the Landrover quietly, and another was saying, ‘Shoot him! Shoot him!’
The running and crying continued for {about} five minutes. Later on he was overpowered, they got him into {the Landrover}. I heard another gunshot, twice, then everything was quiet. I was watching from my window as they drove away.
Those that went to the Prime Minister’s house Struggled with his ADC Kaftan by Name and his wife was shouting for help; five against one. Kaftan through the Struggle got his finger broken; they wanted him to lead them to the Prime Minister’s bedroom {but} he told them that he hadn’t got the key to the house. So they went to Mr. Orupaho, {also} his ADC, who took them to him.
But as none of them had the key to the main door, they had to break the glass of the door before they could enter. They knocked on his door and he asked them who was there, and Orupaho told him that the Army were there, and asked, What Army?’
He opened the door and officer in charge told him they had come to take him away. He didn’t argue with them, but asked them to allow him to get dressed. He dressed all in white. When he opened the door he said, ‘Well! I am ready, let us go!’
And the Army officer said to the other soldiers, ‘Give the Prime Minister his due respect because he is still your Prime Minister!’
His junior ADC, kaftan, was begging them to allow him to go with the Prime Minister to where ever they were talking him. They refused.
Then he begged them not to kill him because he was an only son of his mother. They assured him that no harm would come to him.
The car in which he was taken away was parked opposite the Museum.
He walked from his compound to the parked car.
And on Saturday 15th Mr. Mbadiwe came to the compound {he was apparently acutely disturbed}.
That was what happened - but before taking him away they disarmed all the constables on duty. They rounded them up and warned them not to resist or they would be killed. They finished at about 4.00am. In their hurry they left one soldier’s helmet ⛑ and a gun which was displayed for people to see and the soldier was arrested but was allowed to go.
Mr. Orupaho, the trusted ADC, the Prime Minister treated him as his own son, but he betrayed him to the soldiers who came to take him away.

Then he begged them not to kill him because he was an only son of his mother. They assured him that no harm would come to him.
The car in which he was taken away was parked opposite the Museum.
He walked from his compound to the parked car.
And on Saturday 15th Mr. Mbadiwe came to the compound {he was apparently acutely disturbed}.
That was what happened - but before taking him away they disarmed all the constables on duty. They rounded them up and warned them not to resist or they would be killed. They finished at about 4.00am. In their hurry they left one soldier’s helmet ⛑ and a gun which was displayed for people to see and the soldier was arrested but was allowed to go.
Mr. Orupaho, the trusted ADC, the Prime Minister treated him as his own son, but he betrayed him to the soldiers who came to take him away.
Continue to Rest In Peace TAFAWA BALEWA.

FIRST STEPS FOR NEW ENTREPRENEURS
⚫️Business Overview:
Also included in the Business Denoscription portion of a business plan is a summary of the current state of the venture. If you already have selected a legal structure {Sole proprietorship, partnership, subchapter S, or C corporation}, then describe it and who the principal owners are. Also provide a definition of the business - is it a manufacturer, retailer, wholesaler, service provider, or some combination? Will it be started from scratch, as an expansion, or as an acquisition? Further information may include the history of the business and it’s primary strengths.
⚫️Products and Services:
Readers of your plan will need a denoscription of what your product or service is to provide context for what you will later say about it and your market. A general denoscription is all that is needed in this section; you can provide more depth in the marketing plan section.

Success is turn by turn,if it's not your turn today, don't hate those who are successful. You might be more successful than them when it's your turn.
Success is turn by turn,if it's not your turn today, don't hate those who are successful. You might be more successful than them when it's your turn.
Stop trying harder to please people. The truth is, you’ll never be good enough for those who don't like you. Even at your best, they’ll find something to pick on. That’s the nature of people. So, stop sacrificing your happiness for people who don’t care much about you. Keep your heart attached to your Creator. 💯
Someone else’s progress doesn’t mean you are failure, it’s just a matter of time.
