    📌 What Qualification Date Means
    You must buy the stock BEFORE qualification date
    If you buy on or after qualification date, you will NOT receive dividend
    Example:
    MTN Qualification Date = 8 April
    You must buy before 8 April
    Then you receive dividend on 5 May
    💡 Smart Strategy (What Experienced Investors Do)
    Since you’re learning dividend investing:
    Good companies to watch:
    Banking stocks (Zenith, GTCO)
    Telecom (MTN)
    Cement (Dangote, BUA)
    Consumer (NASCON, Lafarge)
    These usually pay strong dividends yearly.
