it all depends on you and what you're after..
if you intend to be a web developer, you can start with wordpress, i've never used wordpress before, so i can't say much about it, but it seems to get the work done

but if you intend to go deeper,

start with python, it's has very simple syntax and lets you focus most of your time on learning about programming not on individual lines of code
understand concepts in procedural programming:
like sequence, selection(if tests), repetiton(loops) (these concepts are the same regardless of language, thats why once you've become comfortable in one language, its relatively easier to pickup a another in a shorter amount of time)

understand concepts in functional programming
like arguments, and return values, namespaces e.t.c

learn about oop concepts(oop:object oriented programming)
like classes, methods, inheritance, multiple inheritance, operator overloading, encapsulation, abstraction, polymorphism, composition, delegation, e.t.c
( again the same everywhere regardless of language, and oop is used in almost anything software development)

then pickup a language that suits your needs,(you could continue with python, if you wanted, personally python does a lot for me, especially web dev and data science, even destop apps and it's even used for mobile apps(kivy) but i wouldn't go there, e don try )

if you want to learn to build mobile apps for ios, you'll have to learn swift

if you want to build desktop apps, java(javafx) or c++

if you want to do games programming, c++(unreal), c#(unity) or java(python is good too but for 2d games like tetris or space shooters)

for android development, android, kotlin or javascript(using ionic(a javascript framework for building mobile apps))

if you want to go into ai(artificial intelligence, datascience, deep learning, machine learning, data visualization, python all the way!!)


the point is different languages are better suited for different needs, if you want to learn web development (which is probably the most sought after field alongside mobile app dev), i'll advise you learn php and laravel, or c# and .net(dotnet) or java and spring(these are the most popular languages used in developing websites in nigeria, i believe nairaland is built using php also)

regardless of what you learn, you'll find that asides syntactical differences, the programming concepts i told you about earlier are more or less the same everywhere, of course you could also use one of those crash courses to get up to speed ( build a website in 30 minutes sort of course ) , but you'll need to know those concepts on the long run if you want to really know what is happening in your code

this is a brief overview not a detailed guide to help launch your career as programmer, as you do your own personal research i hope you find more answers that make sense and are useful to you, i fear my speech here may have just bored/confused you

the best way to learn is to build something, always have a project your working on no matter how small, it could be a word count program when you're starting out, or a guessing game, or tic tac toe(X and O) e.t.c, the more you build the more you know, and there are times you'll get really bored, no motivation to go on (like this happens a lot), if you have an end goal in sight(maybe to build your own reddit or nairaland or jumia e.t.c or even your own word cookie or flappy birds) it helps a lot, you begin to search or ask questions in line with that goal and see more useful answers that motivate you to carry on....

by this time 2019 sha, i know say you go don gallant... goodluck

Kai .....English please, do you want to blow our head off with this your systematic english.....you wucked

Can we chat @the backyard, I don't want my village people to know what i'm up to

@ BiafraBushBoy
If I may ask, what do you mean by Liquid Portfolios?

BiafraBushBoy:
Now here is the trick...

The more skills you have, the more side hustles you can create, and the more streams of income you can have.

Does that sound interesting?

Let's get fired up for the new year.

Mobile App is a growing skill, it will make you so much money if you learn it...

What do you mean by Liquid Portfolios?

Pls could u recomend a good n sound computer organisation/insititute I can enroll into in IBADAN, thats why I asked for your direct contact.......thanks

THIS IS AN AWESOME POST, BUT MUST ALL MULTIPLE STREAMS BE IT RELATED?

I liked writing task at school only and I helped all my classmates at The College of Physical Sciences and Engineering. Without special education , I began work with https://writingcreek.com/writing-jobs-online/ as a freelancer online. For the first time, I had written simple essays, but began to write more complicated texts after a short period. In length of time, I'd earned enough money for my family with my just born son Danny. It was hard times period with long days and nights 7 years ago. I'd read classic copywriting books and writing, writing, writing essays from one field only. It's my personal experience: a few theory and a huge bit of practice. You can make money not the heavy way like me if You have enthusiasm and really need (especially just need ).
P.S. My lovely Books are: The Copywriter’s Handbook by Robert Bly; The AdWeek Copywriting Handbook by Joseph Sugarman; Breakthrough Advertising by Eugene Schwartz; The Well-Fed Writer by Peter Bowerman; The Boron Letters by Gary Halbert; Made to Stick by Chip and Dan Heath
P.P.S. It makes items on a list actually use when they teach you how to write well and interact with others as the subjects pertain to copywriting.

Thanks for your advice man, I've started java programming1 with new horizon in Abuja. I had move back to Abuja due to some changes, d course as been very challenging but I'm very much determined to excel in these field.

This is beautiful, I'm happy you made the first step, hope it didn't set you back too much financially though as i heard their courses are relatively costlier than the rest, It is challenging no doubt, especially seeing as you're learning a strong and statically typed language as java, declaring and initializing variables, ( we don't do that in python ). Java code can be complicated but it has advantages especially the fact that its less prone to errors, you'll understand along the way.

Also keep up to date with openings for java developer jobs, use hotnigeriajobs or ask your instructors at the course for guides and tips and the next course of action.

Make sure you're prepared to learn on your own, you have no idea how much you'll need to learn on your own to stay relevant, for instance if you want to go into web development, unless you have money to keep churning out, you'll need to learn html and css and javascript, lets assume you have the money for it, but what of frontend javascript frameworks, like react and vue, i personally haven't seen online course that offer angular or react and redux, there's also stuff like redis, docker, and so many other technology that keep popping out every other day.

Besides the money, your time table might not always be flexible for those courses, you will need to find material online to do your own personal research, the field is growing every second, and you have to keep updating yourself.

read online tech articles, there's recode, theres hacker news, even quora, suscribe to tech and programming feeds/sections on quora..
Then stackoverflow, almighty stackoverflow , just know you can't do without it right now, you will come across crazy errors in your code, always check stackoverflow, there's a 90% chance someone has encountered the problem before you and it has been solved..
remember STACKOVERFLOW!!!!!

learn about git and version control, it helps in working collaboratively and maintaining your code, its another tool thats very important.
There's so much to learn but i promise you'll enjoy the journey if you're really dedicated..

Just make sure you learn to use the internet to update yourself and solve programming problems in general, a programming course is only the first step.

Thanks a lot man, I appreciate ur candid advice. Cheers....

My intention is to venture into python after my java course. I beleive java syntax are more complicated compared to python, probably java would provide me a soft landing when I start python because thats(python)
is my main target....
