Investors in the Nigerian capital market have earned over N1trillion from dividend payout by companies listed on Nigerian Exchange Limited (NGX) year-to-date (YtD).

This was even as Dangote Cement, MTN Nigeria and 8 others emerged as highest companies in terms of total dividends paid while Nestle, Total Energies Plc and 8 others emerged as highest in terms of dividend paid per share.

Dividend payment is one of the very few ways available for investors to earn a constant stream of income. It is also the main reason shareholders hold onto their shares in a company. It, therefore, brings great satisfaction to investors when these companies declare dividend to their shareholders.

According to corporate action from the NGX website, 57 companies across 11 sectors of quoted companies on Nigerian Exchange Limited have so far paid out N1.107 trillion. The data further showed that 22 companies emerged from the financial services sector, 9 companies emerged from Consumer Goods and 4 emerged from Industrial Goods.
