Service, the action of helping or doing work for someone is central to our existence whether as individuals or organisations. More than ever before, humanity needs service today to serve one another rather than looking for assistance from others. The act of service is the sure way to go if the service of people is to make a meaningful and lasting impact on humanity because humanity is about building a bond amongst the society with the help of sustainable values.

Optiva Capital Partners commitment to service and capacity to deliver on promise to clients on Citizenship by Investment in Grenada was once again showcased recently with the completion of Six Sense resort Grenada on schedule by Range Developments, an award-winning developer of luxury resorts. Commenting on this development, Chairman of Optiva Capital Partners, Mr. Franklin Nechi, restated that delivering on its promise to clients further deepens relationships between Optiva Capital and its elite global partners for the benefit of their clients.
Nechi was part of the elite guests who joined the leaders of the Caribbean countries and other global captains of industry at an exclusive pre-opening ceremony for the newly-completed luxurious five-star resort, Six Senses La Sagesse, easily the best hotel in Grenada. The resort was developed by Range Developments, a leader in luxury developments in the Caribbean, and one of the elite global partners of Optiva Capital for exclusive and bespoke investment opportunities for Nigerians and Africans across investment immigration, investment services and advisory, and international real estate.
Dignitaries at the high-profile event where Nechi was the only African invited to the occasion included the Prime Minister of Grenada, Dickon Mitchell; Prime Minister of Saint Kitts and Nevis, Terrance Drew; Governor General of Grenada, Cecil La Grenade; and Chairman, Range Development. Mohammed Asari. Others were the Chief Executive Officer of Six Senses International, Neil Jacobs and Chief Operating Officer of Intercontinental Hotel Group, Jorge Apaez.
Grenada boasts of one of the most appealing and robust Citizenship-by-investment (CBI) programmes globally. It maintains strong diplomatic ties with the United States of America (USA), the United Kingdom, and the European Union (UN).
Gaining access to the US is not the only benefit one gets from obtaining a Grenada passport, it also gives visa-free travel to 143 countries including all countries of the European Union, United Kingdom, Singapore, Russia, and China.
Grenada stands out as one of the Caribbean nations offering a citizenship program that grants its citizens the opportunity to obtain an E-2 visa. By acquiring an E-2 visa, holders of a Grenada passport can reside in the United States indefinitely. As a citizen of Grenada, you will enjoy the benefits of the USA Treaty with Grenada, enabling you to establish a business, reside, and work in the USA alongside your family. You can also live and work in Grenada as a second home with zero hassles on global income tax, wealth tax, or inheritance tax.
To get a Grenada passport, there are two options, invest $220,000 in a government-approved real estate project. The property must be held for a minimum of 5 years before it can be sold or you make a non-refundable minimum donation of $150,000 to the National Transformation Fund.

The company has twenty one branches across the country and provides excellent investment immigration, investment advisory, wealth management services, and international real estate for its esteemed clients who have trusted them with their investment immigration needs for over 13 years.
Working with its elite global partners, Optiva Capital has helped many families with their immigration and global access needs over the years and “has consistently done this with utmost diligence and professionalism.”
With regard to its commitment to provide services for the common good, Optiva Capital Partners also recently flagged off the groundbreaking ceremony for the rehabilitation and upgrade of AgboyiKetu Primary Healthcare Centre, Lagos, into a fully equipped maternity centre.
In a pivotal role with the Lagos State government, the rehabilitation covers the facilities, structures, the equipment, and totally upgrading the healthcare facility to ensure that women from that particular area are taken care of.
In her remarks at the ceremony, the Chief Executive Officer of Optiva Capital Partners, Dr. Jane Kimemia, stated that the objective of the firm, in alignment with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is to address maternal health care and reduce maternal mortality rate in Nigeria because different World Health Organization reports state that Nigeria contributes up to ten percent of the global maternal death.
According to her, Optiva Capital Partners will expand the healthcare facilities to “accommodate more beds and enhance the quality of the maternity wards and labor rooms with state-of-the-art hospital equipment. This is to ensure that a larger number of women in AboyiKetu Local Government receive enhanced maternity care. We will be working extensively on the infrastructure and ambience from the time you walk in to receive medical help to the time you receive the help you need. So it won’t only benefit mothers but the entire population of Ketu LCDA. We will provide hospital equipment for the delivery room as advised by the Ministry of Health. This project will take about two months. In two months’ time, we will come back to commission a full-fledged maternity centre where women, mothers and children will be happy to come in to receive medical help. This is the beginning of our journey towards creating sustainable change in maternal and childcare. Through our collaboration with the Lagos State Ministry of Health, we strive for a future where the number of women who lose their lives during childbirth is greatly minimized”.
The CEO of Optiva Capital Partners, Kimemia, conveyed her appreciation for the opportunity to work with the Lagos State Government Ministry of Health and the Ketu Local Government in their efforts to decrease the maternal mortality rate in the state.
Optiva Capital Partners takes service to the community seriously through its passionate commitment not only to maternal health care but also to the empowerment of women, especially those at the lower rung of society’s ladder.
Women, according to Dr. Kimemia, are the bedrock of the society because the basic unit of society -the home, is run by women, and that is where it all starts. Women are seeking ways to educate, to empower, to contribute, and these start from the home. They want to be able to educate, train their children and themselves. Women also seek to be empowered by the knowledge and experiences gathered, and to contribute to the growth and development of the society.
In this regard, Optiva Capital Partners works with families, because when they work with families on how their children are going to school, on how they can go to Canada and they will be paying a tenth of what the international students will be paying, it is a service to women, a service to the family. According to the Optiva Capital CEO, we are enabling them, we are showing them opportunities on how they can actually access better services.
According to Dr. Kimemia, beyond health there is also “an initiative for women in the markets, women at the very end of the pyramid, so it’s about empowering them in terms of how do they get better at their trade, how do they get investments. So, in partnership with a Micro Finance Bank we are helping them to formalize their businesses, structure their businesses so that they can get financing and scale up their businesses.”
Optiva Capital Partners, Africa’s leading investment immigration wealth management company has steadily, over the past fourteen years built a growing reputation amongst investment savvy Africans who seek quality service in investment immigration, investment advisory, and wealth management.
