Yes — a stock can absolutely be valued at ₦1 million per share.

Two Different Meanings of “₦1 Million Stock”
When you saw ₦1 million, it could mean:
1. Price Per Share = ₦1,000,000
This is rare but possible. Some companies have very expensive shares.
Examples globally:
Berkshire Hathaway (Class A shares)
Over $600,000 per share (over ₦900 million+) 😲
Owned by Warren Buffett
Why so high?
They never split shares
Long-term growth increased price
2. Your Total Investment Value = ₦1 Million
This is more common. Example:
Share price = ₦50
You own 20,000 shares
Total value = ₦1,000,000
So you may have seen:
Total value not price per share
In Nigeria 🇳🇬
Very few stocks trade extremely high per share.
Most Nigerian stocks:
₦1 — ₦100 range
Some premium stocks:
Seplat Energy (higher price range)
Nestlé Nigeria (often expensive)
But ₦1 million per share in Nigeria is extremely rare.
Most Likely What Happened
You probably saw one of these:
Total portfolio value = ₦1 million
Nominal value confusion
Unit price of fund (not stock)
Bond or treasury instrument
