There’s a saying in the U.S. Army: “We get more done by 9 a.m. than most people do all day.” As a U.S. Army veteran, one of the core principles I teach Nigerian entrepreneurs is the power of deep focus and discipline. Here’s a challenge for you: Every day, aim to complete the most important task or tasks in your business by 9 a.m. It can be one task or several—but they must be the ones that truly move your business forward. This forces you to reframe your decisions, eliminate distractions, and operate with intention and clarity. Deep focus and discipline is a game-changer. Try this for one week—and watch your productivity skyrocket. Mbariket | Leading U.S.—Nigeria Business Platforms

Walk into any African store in the U.S., and you’ll likely see Ghana yams front and center. A single small tuber now goes for up to $40 in some areas. That’s the power of value-added export done right. Nigeria, as the world’s largest yam producer, has massive untapped potential. This isn’t about competition — it’s about stepping into opportunity. With proper cleaning, packaging, cold chain logistics, and export coordination, Nigeria can easily enter and thrive in this high-demand U.S. market. The buyers are waiting. The prices are high. The time is now. Let’s build the structure, empower our farmers and exporters, and take Nigeria’s yams global. Mbariket | Leading U.S.—Nigeria Business Platforms

From January to May 2025, Nigeria exported $2,122 million in goods to the U.S. and imported $2,417 million — resulting in a trade deficit of $295 million. ❌ Largest deficit: January (–$143M)✅ Trade surplus months: February, March, May 💡 What this means: Nigeria is importing more from the U.S. than it’s exporting. To flip this, we must strengthen non-oil exports — especially agriculture, food products, and manufactured goods. 📦 The demand in the U.S. is real. Exporters — it’s time to step up. Let’s scale Made-in-Nigeria products to global markets. Mbariket | Leading U.S.–Nigeria Business Platforms
