You needed to .
He probably doesn't need to

That I share things publicly doesn't mean I need to respond to private or public inquiries

Especially if I'm not being paid for that time directly or indirectly
ok

You ran social media campaigns for profitable purposes I suppose? So you had a duty to be up and doing with timely responses regardless of the volume of messages. Your case and his case are not the same.

That’s not the case with him, he already puts out helpful info, if you have to message him to ask questions that won’t translate to coins in his pocket, he’s not obliged to give a timely response. It’ll be nice if he does, but it’ll be unfair to tag him as a bad person or other implied bad tags because he’s not responding to a barrage of dms.

I’m sure if the likes of Duchess and co allowed people to contact them via email, Nigerians would have already started calling her names because she’s not responding even after the loads of helpful info she publicly gives.
It’s alright

But you could might have got some sort of incentives, for your campaign efforts.......

On the other hand, his reward is in heaven.........😂😜
when I created that thread. I responded to every single person that commented or asked a question, no matter how irking it was. It’s not about incentives. How you act online, tells a lot about you offline, regardless of your pose online. It’s my opinion though, might not be true

If I get questioned about something that I have explained on a post, via dm, I’ll just simply redirect you. Rather than ignore. But I bet you, my question wasn’t even on his timeline. ✌️.

Btw, it’s not just me. Several people complained, but not me 😁

The issue majority of our people have is, they are never succinct with their enquiries........

Rather than be brief and hit the hammer on the head, they start with hello, hi and other irrelevant openings .........😂😁

Someone receiving hundreds of DM's, he would simply have to filter .........😜

I was patient with one on LinkedIn chat, I later vex for myself

Him: hello
Me: hi

Him: how are you today
Me: fine thanks

Him: and work
Me: fine

Him: how is the family
Me: deletes chat from my LinkedIn and vex for myself.

Structural Adjustment Program......... People begin chop 101, 001, 010 etc etc

In comparison to now, that period would be deemed heaven on earth........😂😜

The worse military period, is much better than the best democratic dispensation........😁

People say the worse democracy is better than the best military. But during military, everything seemed to work; national airline, refineries, power, good roads. But nothing has worked under civilian rule. Is it because it is the military that still converted to civilian rulers?

what kind of risk do your people take? a girl for that matter.
You arrive UK with no arrangement for accommodation?
Even me as a man cannot do this. I would either arrange to rent a house or be recommended to someone by another

As much as his response was harsh, it’s better to make plans when moving to a new country and it’s slightly irresponsible not to. Any how sha, check airbnb, you should find something decent for 2 weeks. You can also ask on your school’s Facebook or Telegram group, there should be people there who might have spare rooms to rent or even your uni might have a hostel room available.

There’s something we need understand, every human being has a plan but money is always the problem and this japa is money draining I must tell us , I know how much I have spent and money for flight never set sef not to talk of housing for the first month, what I’m saying is this might be her case and money don finish, and as risky as it may sound it’s better to find someone who she don’t know to harbor her in UK for few days even it means paying some money then staying on the street or not traveling at all after all the money spent already.

Jumping into conclusion is a very bad thing and you should be civilized enough to respect an adult wish and privacy. I am not sleeping on the street and asking for people around that area is because I just got a job around that place. Nobody would come without making arrangements for accomodations. If we don't have kind words to say let's mind our businesses rather than assuming for someone

If you're Christian or muslim, look for an african congratulation near by to attend. They should be able to link you up with one for short stay.

After all, what would Christ have done
