Ignorance to some certain things we should and shouldn't do.
Here's a list of SEVEN things You Should Stop Doing if you want Your Phone battery to last long!

1. Turn On Airplane Mode if You're in a Place with Bad Network.

Our Phones Network services Continues to seek for Signals even if we're in a place where there's bad Network. This single function of it drains the battery Percentage little by little without us knowing!

Always endeavour to turn On your Airplane Mode if You're in a Place with Bad Network.

4. Switch Off your Phone once in a While

We make use of our Phones virtually everyday, giving it no time to rest. Once in a while it is good to Just Put it Off for like 15 minutes not when the battery Is low o. But just switching it off and allowing it to rest even with Full percentage.

At least thrice in a week.

5. Don't always keep Your Phone at 100 percent.
Keeping your phone at 100 percent all the time will make the battery weak and Exhausted. 

Imagine as a human your Stomach is always filled with Food, there is no way you'll be able to function properly. Allow it to drain once in a while.

6. Don't Charge Your Phone Overnight.

This is very bad. The batter gets full and since you're sleeping it still continues charging.

This is one of the fastest way to drain the life of your battery

7. Stop using your Phone while it's charging

Stop using your phone while its charging, You'll have all the time after charging it.

Thanks but some phones and chargers automatically stop charging or taking in more energy once fully 100%. But power bank will keep charging your battery until it destroys it, it has no limitation to stop charging a full battery. Avoid power bank by all means

Some power bank stop charging when your phone is full. This fil power bank does that

Wow.. Thats an old phone ooo brother. I'm sure it even runs Android 4 KitKat and has a removable battery.... Damn!
I guess the Android version is the reason for it and more so, most Apps these days aren't really compatible with very old Operating Systems like yours and whenever they run, they'll only end up making the phone over work and very hot then get battery drained faster.. You need to upgrade ya phone to a latest one and for the time being, you could buy another Battery..

Op is very wrong with some of his points but I will speak on over charging.. For crying out loud, you are using a smart phone. It is conditioned in such a way that once it reaches 100% , it stops charging automatically even if it is still plugged. If you are using an Android phone , u will notice that once it reaches 100 , and still plugged, the charging sign will disappear. If you have not noticed ' please take note now. There is nothing like over charging a smartphone except the Op is using a touch light phone.

No insult Intended, I just felt we need to understand why your phone is called SMART.
