SportsRe: Do You Think Lionel Messi Deserve This 2026 World Cup? by Akanaz(m): 7:24pm On Jul 14
Some people just ask dumb questions. Does Argentina deserve the 2026 World Cup? Which of the countries doesn't deserve it? Like they aren't struggling enough to win matches? Bleep FIFA favouritism conspiracy theory. Every competing country deserves it.

PoliticsRe: Peter Obi Reacts To Trump's Redesignation Of Nigeria As Country Of Concern by Akanaz(m): 7:19pm On Nov 03, 2025
He sounded just like a real politician.

He neither admitted there are purported attacks directed at Christians, nor did he deny it.

Smart statements, but lack the courage that I look forward to seeing in a leader I'm going to vote for.

I don't do politics of deceit.

Jobs/VacanciesRe: "Why Is Landing A Remote Job So Hard?" by Akanaz(m): 8:55am On May 28, 2025
You're right.

I think this has to do with the wrong mentality of most Nigerians.

Most Nigerians are in most cases motivated by the words of online course sellers that promises them that they can land a remote job after just 3 months of training.

A statement that is not true. It takes years of learning and practising to actually master a skill.

Interestingly, most of these online course sellers have never really had real life job experience.

Most of the just start selling courses after learning the course themselves and not able to find remote jobs.

So they resort into selling false hopes.

For someone who is looking for job with such mentality, even after reading the job description, they will still be motivated to do the work even though they know deep down that they don't have the skill to perform well on the job.

I've been doing digital marketing for 3 years now and I'm still learning.

As Nigerians, we just need to take out time to learn a skill proper before we start applying for jobs.

I'm sure if we ask these foreigners, their experience wouldn't be far from yours.
monteriza:
Sorry about your experience, but let's be honest here, Nigerians are the most terrible people to work with online. This is coming from someone who has worked with more than 100 Nigerians remotely. My most recent experience. A nairalander who provided his username as fnep2smooth was commissioned to do a job on my site. After failed attempts to deliver, this guy ghosted me. I had to log him out of my site and get someone else to do it. Who does that? Only a Nigerian. I have worked with people from other countries, and I have not met anyone as bad as the average Nigerian.

Don't get me wrong. I have worked with very wonderful guys from Nigeria. Two of them are presently working with me on a project, but people like these guys are rare (Like 1 out of 40 or 50).

How can someone who is into marketing build proof without actually having an experience?

Marketing is not like web design where you can just create a website or data analytics where you can easily get data set to practice and showcase as your portfolio.
SelormGH:
A lot of people think landing a remote job is just about sending tons of applications. But the real game-changer is how you present yourself to recruiters. Even if you don’t have five years of experience, there are ways to make your profile stand out.


Highlight skills instead of job titles—companies care about what you can DO, not just where you've worked.

Build small proof projects—this is like showing, instead of just telling, what you can do.

Get into the right spaces—networking in industry circles gets you noticed faster than cold applications.


The good news? There’s a way to break the cycle—you just need the right strategy.

What’s been holding you back the most?
Jobs/VacanciesRe: "Why Is Landing A Remote Job So Hard?" by Akanaz(m): 3:37pm On May 27, 2025
The most frustrating part for me is the lack trust in Nigerian professionals by foreign clients.

Just yesterday I sent a dm to a potential client on Facebook. I told him how I can help him solve his current problem.

At first, we had agreed to have a discovery call via zoom meeting where I was going to get to know him and also tell him about me and my skill set.

Would you believe after all the initial talks and rapport between us, he stopped talking to me after he discovered I'm from Nigeria?

The thing is I deliberately told him the meeting was schedule for Nigerian time zone to see his reaction.

But when these people are looking for people who are going to work for on a commission, they can easily settle for Nigerians.

Another problem is WFT setups as most jobs now requires to have a dedicated office space set up for remote opportunity.

Still have an email I'm yet to reply due to lack of WFT.

I mean I do. But I know the standards these people are looking for.

PoliticsRe: Wike, Umahi, Others To Unveil Tinubu’s Achievements In London by Akanaz(m): 6:21am On May 14, 2025
One question.

Where do oppositions go to demarket the nation? Aba?

Let me tell you something, the level of hardship that people are going through has overshadowed the achievements of this adminstration and the enemies of the nation take advantage of the international community to undermine the achievement of this adminstration.

Mind you, this current pain is as a result of growth. Have you ever seen anybody who has achieved remarkable success without experiencing some sort of pains?

When it comes to strategy, you gotta give it to Tinubu. He carefully selected the perfect stage and people to carryout the job.

Trust me, these people aren't going to be churning out bs. They are presenting fact and figures so that both international and local communities can verify to exterminate any form of smear campaign against the country.

I come in peace ✌️
Borrow2222:
You can imagine the type of people handling this nation's affairs.

Going all the way to London to showcase this administration's achievements.

The achievements are supposedly so big that Nigerian press and TV stations can't finish broadcasting them, so they have to include foreign media – just to amplify propaganda.

AgricultureRe: How Import Waivers Are Crippling Local Rice Mills by Akanaz(m): 2:32pm On May 08, 2025
Besides, these farmers have the power to set competitive prices but they won't because of their selfish gains.

I know a lot of people would say they don't have the capacity for mass production which causes scarcity. Hence, the price increase. But that's not entirely true.

Even if that's the case, the new waiver is meant to help fill the gap caused by low local production.
Almunjid:
It would be better for import waivers to negatively impact local rice mills rather than allowing greedy farmers to exploit consumers. I cannot understand why Nigerians often display such callousness towards one another. If the government were to close the border, the price of rice would skyrocket, and farmers would be content to see consumers struggle. Conversely, if the government sought to relieve citizens of the high cost of food, farmers would express dissatisfaction. In this context, it seems more reasonable for farmers alone to face challenges rather than the entire country enduring the consequences of exorbitant rice prices.

Peace!
AgricultureRe: How Import Waivers Are Crippling Local Rice Mills by Akanaz(m): 1:58pm On May 08, 2025
To hell with these rice millers.

I know their actions have the potential to positively impact Nigeria.

But what have they been doing all these while?

Local rice seem to be damn to expensive than the imported ones.

The waiver is the only solution the government can profer to control the continued astronomic rise in the prices of rice across the country.

If these millers can't find a way to produce good quality rice at a competitive price, then the business is never meant for them.
