The corona virus pandemic (COVID 19) is no longer news to the entire world. Even the word COVID 19 is no longer strange in the mouth of babies who may not even know the meaning. As such, the COVID 19 pandemic has gone almost across all countries of the globe.

Many people have lost their jobs as a result of the pandemic. Many businesses have shot down with more still shoting down. Many economies have crumbled and there’s a prediction of global recession after the pandemic. Although the pandemic is still not over, some countries have already started sliding into recession already. Hunger has become the order of the day as the palliatives been sent do not go anywhere.

This article is focused on outlining few businesses students can do within this lockdown. Remember that immediately after the lockdown, school begins again in earnest. Many people have exhausted all their savings and have even started borrowing from friends. But if you invest in a business, by the time school opens you will have much savings to go back to school


1) POS: The word POS means Point of Sale. It is a kind of business in which you help people withdraw and deposit from either from or into their account. With the lock down, many banks have shot down. The few that are still in operation do not allow much people inside at the same time. Hence endless queues are formed when people go to perform simple transaction in the bank. You may be outside for up to 3hours just to make a withdrawal of₦5000. As a result of this, people seek for easy and convenient way of doing things.

3) Home Delivery Services: With the lockdown, you can run a delivery service business for people. There are places with total lockdown while other places have partial lockdown. Yet in places with partial lockdown, many people are still afraid because no one knows who has this virus and who doesn’t, since it is not written on the face. A home delivery service business will go a long way in helping you make money this period.

4) YouTube Videos: With the lockdown, movement has been restricted. The slogan this period is “Stay safe, Stay home”. But then how can you stay at home morning to night from Monday to Sunday. Boredom will become the order of the day if such a thing happens. With boredom, screens will be a better way of reducing boredom. Therefore doing you YouTube Videos will not be a bad idea either. This is because this is the only thing to ease boredom in this time. Whatever kind of video you do, provided you market and promote it well, you will turn in some chunks of money at the month’s end. Creativity drives people and arouses their interest. If you videos are creative, people will want to come back and view them over and over again. With the lockdown, you may not necessarily need to go to a studio or hire a camera man to help in your video making. With your smart phone that has quality camera and a good area of your room, you are good to go


5) Online Lectures: Though there’s a lockdown, yet many things has not been lockdown. There’s prohibition on gathering that involves people which will make them have contact with each other. Thus, many seminars are now organised online using the Zoom platform and other teleconferencing application and software. With zoom and other platforms, you can organise online lectures and educate people on various subject matter


6) Home Lesson: This is another offer for you this lockdown period. Schools are no longer in session and as such students will gradually begin to forget what they already knew. Becoming a private home teacher in your neighbourhood will not be a bad idea at all. Many parents will gladly accept your offer and employ you to help their children in maintaining and even improving in their knowledge. Those basic subject the kids offer in school, if you propose to teach them, you will hardly be rejected. We do not know how long the lockdown will last but then, as soon as it is over, many school will start their examination without wasting time. There may be only two weeks for preparation which is actually too short. So you proposal will most likely be accepted

7) Sewing: With the preventive measures to curb the spread of the corona virus pandemic (COVID 19), the demand for nose mask has increased. Thus therefore has created opportunity for tailors who have ventured into the production of nose mask. Many people have made chunks of money through the sewing of nose mask for people to wear. This period, some factories has been set up just for the sole purpose of producing this which has in turn created employment opportunities


cool Local Hand Sanitiser: Some of the rules to curb the spread of COVID 19 include; Keep social distance, Use nose mask, wash your hand, use hand sanitiser and so on. With the high demand for hand Sanitiser, the prize has alarmingly increased to the point that many people can no longer afford it. This is an opportunity for people to produce the hand Sanitiser locally. Though the locally made may not gain professional approval, yet it is very effective.


In conclusion, stay at home but don’t stay idle. Do not exhaust all you have in your account when you can still make more money. Choose any of these businesses and get involved. You’ll appreciate me in the end
