How to Claim Your Unclaimed Dividend in Nigeria

Have You Ever Bought Shares In Nigerian Companies in the past? Public offer (Primary) or Secondary Market? Then this is for you. Several Nigerians participate in Public offers of Nigerian publicly listed companies without going further to register with stockbrokers. For instance, the last MTN public offer in 2022 had over 126,000 investors, according to MTN  and Premium Times , but I would be surprised if up to half of such investors have done anything further after that investment. Similarly, GTCO recently did a public offer with not less than 130,000 domestic investors participating in it as reported by Guardian News .  If you have ever participated in buying shares of Nigerian companies, chances are that you might have unpaid dividends waiting for you to claim (Free bucks, yeah!). Whether it was through an Initial Public offer, Public offer or bought from the Secondary market, if the company had ever declared dividends after your purchase then you are likely eligible to be ...

Julius Berger Annual General Meeting 2025: No virtual attendance?

The 55th Annual General Meeting of Julius Berger Nigeria Plc held on June 19, 2025 at Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Center, 1 Memorial Drive, FTC Abuja, facilitated by the company and their registrars, Greenwich Registrars and Data Solutions. Resolutions from the meeting have since been published and are available to shareholders on the NGX Website. However, it is surprising to notice that it appears like there was no provision for shareholders who could not make it all the way to Abuja to join in virtually to follow the conversation. Provision was only made for physical attendance and voting through proxies. Do publicly listed companies still do that in this day and age? If there was one good thing that the world benefited from the last COVID-19 pandemic, it would be the compulsion to have meetings virtually, which then got nicely blended into our way of life afterwards. Several apps were developed and 'rediscovered' to accommodate virtual meetings, and have continued to be in use since...
