Portfolio is a collection or an aggregation of investments tools such as stocks, shares, mutual funds, bonds, cash to mention a few. Data were collected from research work of Annual Report, Vetiva Research for the three banks, Zenith Bank, GTBank and First Bank share. The data was formulated as a quadratic programming problem and we create the lagrangean expression, LINDO software was used to analyse the data. Expected returns of Bonus on share capital for each bank are 35%, 28.64%, 25.84% for Zenith Bank, GTBank and First Bank respectively. The increment that yields the minimum variance with mixed investment opportunity is 30%. Hence the optimum solution to the model is b1 = 30.15%, b2 = 50.94% and b3 = 18.91%Where b1 represent Zenith bank expected investment of the share holder, b2 represent GTBANK bank expected investment of the share holder and b3 represent First bank expected investment of the share holder.
