"In 2016, President @MBuhari made a pronouncement that Nigeria is going to establish a registered beneficiary owner of companies.

"Under the new CAMA law:
- As an individual, you don’t need a second person to register your company...
It will have the same legal capacity like any other company that has 1000 shareholders & will have a separate legal personality from you. It can sue & be sued in its own name & it can exist in perpetuity

- one individual cannot combine the offices of Chairman & Chief Executive.
