Thanks a lot for this comment.

Your welcome

Some might say your question is an easy one, others will say it's a hard one.

Best way to find the profitable niches in Nigeria is through Google trend and keyword planner. Rather than believing what some people will say.

Case in point.

On Google keyword planner, the key word make money online has a high search quota of over 5k in Lagos, while the density in other states are below a 1000. E. G Kano, Owerri and rivers.

Fiverr money and fiverr tutorials are ranked above 3k, search queries in Lagos, while far less than 200 per month on other states.

In entertainment, Linda ikeji and premier league have the highest search queries of over 16k and 22k.

Now with the above niche ideas, how do you want to carve your own share of the market, while bearing in mind that Nigerian don't like paying for entertainment or premier league.

How does it feel to be an Amputee. How does it feel to loose the use of an arm,leg or both. How does it feel to see others do the thing you want so badly to do. We leave home and call a bike to take us to our destination without a safety gear or harness. Our faith, that God is with us and nothing will happen.

Danfo_Dashed

We enter a bus to get home from work, the bus driver is driving like a complete manic with a mission to get to his bus stops on time. We smile inwardly and enjoy his bravado and insult those who get in the way of his drivng, we fear nothing. Why should we fear when God is with us nothing will happen.

Bike_Down

We drive out for a night on the town, and do the thing that makes that nation great and crazy. We drink to stupor and get behind the wheel, performing daring moves and flooring the gas on port hole riddled roads while being cheered by our friends in the back sit. Why worry, god is with us.

Life does not end because we lose an arm or a leg or both.Life does not end because we were born lacking the ability to move. Life does not end because a small err on a bike or collusion by a bus with another vehicle or that we didn’t see that deep port hole in time and we loose a a limb or both.

It has happened but its Not the End

Life makes us consider the fragility of the human body, how little bumps, scrapes and fractures can leave us immensely immobile. How during those periods, disease creeps in due to err or natural occurrence to rob us of the use of an injured leg or hand.

Life is hearing the news that they will have to amputate and considering two choices. Continue with possible solutions or die. Life lies in taking the better decision.

The one that tells you “After this i will live and find a way”.

Centje nicely done. Do keep up the good work

How quickly that people turned this into a totally different place. Dr keep the work up

Artificial limbs have been a great help, for amputees and people with various disabilities of the limb. But there is a general misunderstand, of how to pick the right artificial limb for an amputee. Most people think it’s a one off solution, they fail to understand that this is a new tool, that one has to learn to work with. Some experts have said that it is better for an amputee, to see and imagine the benefits of the artificial limb before its fitted.

He or her has to understand that for the tool to become efficient and effective, the user has to learn and train to use it.
There are other factors to consider before using a prosthetic such as Mobility and Comfort.

These two factors tend to be constantly ignored, when purchasing and fitting artificial limbs for patients Nigeria.

The question of whether he/she is comfortable with the new limb.

The question of what type of mobility does the patient require.

These two must be first considered.

Does the patient want something for slow movement and overcoming obstacles, common among st the elderly, or would want to be able to return to his active life is constantly overlooked by the providers of the limbs and doctors recommending them.

In Nigeria the choice most time is to provide a cosmetic solution not a functional one. Cases of patients with lower limb prosthetics, that they cannot make use of them are many. The cause of this is lack of information on the part of those providing these limb and the patients alike.

The need for a mobility grade scale is needed for patients and doctors in Nigeria to help determine what kind of prosthetics/artificial limb is need for lower limb amputees. This can be worked on, by prosthetic and orthotic technicians and physiotherapists to help move patients from one scale to another there by gradually helping do more with their artificial legs.

The current Mobility scales used in developed countries range from.

M1- The Indoor Walker
One who needs to get from the bed to a chair.

M2-The Restricted Outdoor Walker.
One who needs to walk for short distances with no obstacles to climb

M3-The Unrestricted Outdoor Walker.
One who needs to be on his feet constantly with few obstacles to climb

M4-The Unrestricted Outdoor Walker with Especially Rigorous Demands.
One who involved in rigorous work and sports.

The Mobility scales also helps determine the best prosthetic for a patients weight class. As weight is another determining factor to the type of lower limb prosthetics a patient can use.

Please oh what do you guys think about this picture

I see a lot of students commenting here.

Do not look down on any profession it's not a prerequisite for who you will become in life.

Once you live those four walls of school, you become the weaver of your own destiny.

So please, no matter what ever course your studying that looks like it has no head in the future.

Don't look down on it, or blame yourself for studying it.

No profession is ridiculous.

In Nigeria I have come to understand that it's not about what you studied in school, but what you can offer a company that employs you.

Nigeria is an employers market, this you can easily see around you by the way company's hire and fire people.

To survive in this type of place you have to think about what each company your applying to wants, and when they employ you, you have to show that there is a reason to keep you and increase you pay.

Saying a profession is ridiculous doesn't apply in today's concept of work, where lawyers and engineers work as well paid marketing staff for banks and insurance firms.

Where accountants are well paid safety officers in oil and constructions companies(this dude tells me it pays his bill more and he can easily jump from one company to another)

Where doctors are webmasters and programmers(my Bro is doctor and a webmaster, although he makes more money as a doctor)

Where political scientists are sales and marketing professionals in various sectors(this applies to me. 0 to pol science, 5 to sales and marketing jobs of which three were over six figures).

The age of thinking your what you studied will give you a well paid job are over.

Today what attains is what you can do for an employer, because if you can't, you get

Adapt, evolve or become obsolete.

You have to find the reading style that suits you.

Its still about visual rearing in Nigeria, where we learn via a book. And schools help make it the way it is. But sometimes someone comes along who can't learn that way.

Most people will call him lazy or dumb.

But it's the culture trend of the current school structure that created the lack

My friend, learning for you Involves audio visuals. Meaning you prefer to see it taught by someone actually doing it not by reading the manuals. When u read you fall asleep.

You might need to train yourself to read more or you try learning via tutorial videos and course.

I am guessing ur more of a hands on technical person.

xcelsia:
Hi there, yeah that's what science calls it. People also say it's spiritual but either way, it's a very scary feeling.

Dude there is a science behind that particular sydrome.

tunbosun9:
I go to sleep and use to wake up paralyzed in my sleep, but not asleep, just
laying there eyes wide open paralyzed. I couldn't breath, i couldn't speak,
move anything but my eyes. I could look around but i couldn't even breaTH somebody told me its called "sleep paralysis" what do you think is causing it?

I use to have it when i was back in school. For some reason i would wake up at nigth and won't be able to breath, paralysed. felt like someone was choking me.


I asked around and got the spirital answer from family and old women. Later found out it was a medical sydrome. But its still fatal for some people.

You wake up this morning and it’s a brand new day. The View from you window looks lovely and you say to yourself, its most likely going to be a beauty day.

You proceed to sit up and a sharp pain hits you in your lower back.

Some of us have experienced this, while a lot of Nigeria’s are copying with one form of back pain.

How does it come by?

When you become a Screen king or queen. Spending over nine hours in front of a screen, due to work or an over active BBM chat or messenger.We find that most of that time we are sitting with our backs slouched forward with our fingers tapping away at the keyboard, Holding that position for that long over a long period of time has shown that it can be hazardous to your backs continuous healthy.

When you sleep on your tummy. A lot of us like the tummy tuck sleeping position even if it does nothing for the stomach it does bad things for your back. It is best to sleep in a lateral position or lie on your sides, as it helps with not just sleeping well but aids your back in aligning properly during your down time. If you must sleep on you stomach, then place a pillow under you pelvic area, this will help alleviate pressure on your back.

When you always worried what Good luck is going to do about the bad road in front of you house. You worry that rain is going to fall, or that you can’t survive on the little you have. Well keep worrying, pretty soon you will worry why you have back pains. Studies have shown that those who are emotional wrecks and worry a lot are prone to back problems.

There is a lot that can cause back pains.
But there is a lot that can help solve or manage it for those that are living with it.

You might need to see an Orthopaedic consultant, this I recommend if the pain keeps you glued your chair or bed. They are many of them available in our general hospitals, teaching hospitals and private practise, they will always need to do multiple x-rays and scans to determine where the problem lies.

You could get in touch with a Chiropractor, although their services are relatively unknown in Nigeria. They regarded as the best people to see when it comes to back pain and recovery. Currently there is only one centre in Lagos.

You can use various braces and supports. These help in reliving the pain while you work or rest, some of them are fitted with various components to help recovery also. Hey using come in three parts, Immobilation, Compression and stabilization. All this will depend on the decision of you Doctor or Chiropractor. They also ranch in what they offer, sometimes the more expensive they are, the more they work.

Jade William: Bullsh*t.No matter how shy a guyis,wit his money&handsomeness,chicks wil b flocking around him lik flies without him evven toasting them.
There's more 2d reason y he can't ask a girl out.
Introverts ar d worst womanizers.Just so u knw
Even d timid&omata guys dey Carry chicks sef

Lad, I beg to differ mate.

This lads the shy type, although when I am with my friends I am more of the clown type, but throw in a lady and I start acting mute like 'my sis says. He is silently analysis the situation'.

Don't know why that happens, keep saying it's just me nerves. On top of that I am a fine working class bruv(although I won't lie I tend to get over engrossed in me work at times).

Tried online dating, and seriously I have to ask you lads how you can go from not wanting to know a lasses straight to bedding her and paying her off. Maybe that's me problem I am a bit of the old school who still believes a bit of getting to know a lass before bedding.

Funny part about my situation is that I have met a lot of working class bruv's facing the same issh. Some of us are fine or just there, but we can't seems to connect with the ladies around us.

We go to all the places most girls go to.

Shop rite, the mall, the palms.

But either luck or a high case of over shyness. Just leaves us speechless even when a pretty says hi.


So put a sock in ya pie hole cos you get it made doest me there ain't lads out there that wanna be in ya shoes.

At least let's see if the lass, succeeds in getting Her bra a mate.

Cos this lads thinking of trying.

Ladies and gents I guess you did the know this but it's known that breakups do affect guys and girls differently.

Particularly is its been a long relationship where it was expected to end in marriage.

Even short relations affect us differently

Have you ever notice as a lady, that after dating a guy for 2 to 4 years, he suddenly breaks off the relationship and moves on to another. Your reaction as a lady is to ask why, even when your told why, you find it hard to move on, but in a 6 months to latest a year, you have moved on(hopefully to someone better).

Yes you may still have feeling for him but your on the way to recovery faster.

Now for a guy, who his lady friend of 3 to 5 years, breaks up with him, he is more likely to no give up trying to get her back for like a year. When the realising that she's gone from him sets in, it's usually year 2. Moving on for guys is always hard after a long relationship because you will not that it seems the guy has forgotten the act of dating, and even if he finds it they are more likely to play the comparism game.

From this you will notice that in long relationships, when a breakup occurs for what ever reason the guys then to get the long end of the stick.

But the reverse occurs in short relations or flings lasting less than 2 year.

Let's look the guys side first, his love of six months tells him it's over, he will wallow for a while ask why for like two weeks then he will most likely get another girl maybe a bit hotter than his ex and attempt to rub it in. At any opportunity he sees his ex.

For the lady it's slightly different, her guy tells her it's over after 6 months. The feeling of being used steps in and she will most often want to do something destructive to the guy for wasting her time and her emotions. This agenda might drive her for a month or more. Also depends on the type of friends she has.

You will notice that the reverse is the case for but male and female on both long term or short term.

Why?

Stick around for the reasons.

I asked some of my friend outside the country to read this thread.

Everyone on is laughing their heads off asking 'you can't seriously mean some people over there are than slow, like this is a joke right'.

Ah naija , laugh no gree me, unable Don dull me finally and to think anyone can now check and read this online and see our level of.....

Naija I hail una

For those who say it's a drone, you can buy your own drone here and use it to spy on yourself and you governors that didn't do all that was necessary to educate you and finally you can spy on oga good luck. (if them catch you, eh)

www.aliexpress.com/wholesale?SearchText=quad+copter&catId=0&initiative_id=

Come oh, no joke unable de joke or nah play unable de play.

Seems a lot of people here like generalising things.

That's no drone, that's an expensive toy that on can get off any Chinese shopping site, e.g aliexpress or China warehouse.

Was actually considering buying one for my cousins, as the last quad choper they bought last year, got spoilt in the villa(you should have seen the uproar that one caused in the villa, from boko haram spies to aliens in the bush. Hunters through out that Christmas went hunting for it despite we showing them it was a toy. Fun ended when someone shot at it).

For those believing it's a drone do your research on the us drone programmes. The hunter and the ripper projects. You will know that drones don't look anything like that.

Even the one they shot down in Iran doesn't look anything like that.

It's a toy that you can order online from aliexpress or alibaba for between 50k and 120k.

If you think I lie, just nosy on over to the site and search for quadcopters.

Now if that can't convince you, then either your that retarded or you think Cameroon and Niger are spying on Ibadan to confirm the beauty of Ibadan pit latrines and babe's.

No wonder, I was wondering why helicopters we're flying around my crib in iju. Now I know, cos the last time there was a crash around here you notice helicopters flying around when they usually don't use this route.

Hope that tire no fall on top person house oh.

jennyphrisel: a guy I wud love,can only be broke for d meantime

Yeah, right. I will believe that if your married and your husband is out of work for two years and no insults have been thrown.

Ah yes the age old question of what a lady wants, that has baffled historians and thinkers alike for ages.
Even those married to them for years still say 'I still don't know what she wants'

Truly it's a question that we may not answer because if we do, the mystery that is the female species will cease to entice us.

Don't worry his still high, when it wears off he will.......

Spedy: Its obvious that the question is often ask by guys. So i was wondering, what does it mean when a girl ask such a question? Is the meaning different from that of the guys? So, ladies in the house brace yourselfs and spit it all.

Truth be told lad, current naija , any girl who asks you that knows you will be lying.

Except your in secondary school or her first date in life.

(your not in secondary school right)

Ok now that is the perfect picture of a runs girls. Albeit now you have give some girls ideas on a new dress pose and clothes for a new photo shoot for their badoo and the likes profile.

Youngsage: Actually what I meant by the bolded was different, you probably saw it differently! This is the definition of flashy according to my dictionary:
Adjective: flashy |fla-shee|
1. Tastelessly showy • a flashy ring = brassy, cheap, flash, garish, gaudy, gimcrack, loud, meretricious, tacky, tatty, tawdry, trashy...

From what I understand from the O.P, I'lld say she. isn't 'flashy', but 'classy', because being flashy has a negative connatation, like you rightly implied above and such a person can't be liked by everyone or be seen as a humble person like was pointed out. Her bro should have used a different word instead.
Yea, self esteem matters a lot. There are some things you cannot say about a person if you havn't met the person. The o.p doesn't depict a flashy person to me, at least from the little description here, so any guy who is scared or intimidated by her looks/aura/personality is problably scared to approach because he feels he might not match up to what he sees. Admiring someone from a distance and not being able to walk up to the person? This clearly has to do with one's self esteem. Or a low selfworth. Has nothing to do with being 'flashy'.
@ o.p Someone your type will definitely come by, just be ready to mingle!

Sorry lad, but there is a big difference between flashy and classy in the us or the UK.

In Nigeria the BIG DIFFERENCE becomes blurred.

Flashy and classic get married and give birth to "that baby too flashy"

In an french voice "Sad, but is true, we".

I always start with you look familiar, when she gives my the look like I have heard that before, I do one of two things,

A. Actually act the you look familiar part out and if anywhere I mention is unknown to her, I apologies and walk away.
Or I do option B.

Tune in next week for the concluding write up on Option B, the option that works all the time.

Spedy: Its obvious that the question is often ask by guys. So i was wondering, what does it mean when a girl ask such a question? Is the meaning different from that of the guys? So, ladies in the house brace yourselfs and spit it all.

Sorry to ask lad, but are you ready for all that spit, if the truly decide to spit it all. Just saying, that's a lot of spit.

ruthy28: Very true if a guy really like u no matter how flashy u are he will approach u so don't dress down 4 anybody just be urself dear

Come dear, you will be approached that's true, but it's not the people she is approached by that she will like.

She might see this cute walking Chuck of a guy that she really wants attention from, he looks and the first thing that comes to mind is(how much de my wallet, where my atm de) before he considers the approach, tend his checking if she is smiling at him or boning like the mopol at a boko haram check point.

While he is considering all this and she is praying, dude get here an say hi already, some father of 3, with his wife in dubai and his kids in school will do the approach for him.

At this point the guy will go. (thank god, na aristo baby "baba I thank you from saving me and my little money" without knowing that the girl is going(why, does this always happen to me)

Does anyone know where I can get a mind reading app for women.

This coming from a lad who likes to keep it simple.
As a working class Bruv, if you look to flashy my shyness kicks in and I just look and don't talk

Because the first thing that comes to mind, what gift will I get here under 3k that she will appreciate or which bar of fat food can I take her to under 5k that will be Ok for her.

My mind will be like she is fine but flashy, meaning buffet at Sheraton or shopping at woolworths and men that's gonna be expensive. Then my mind will decide, I think I will mind my business and concentrate on this lovely looking pure water nylon on the ground(me being shy). Even thinking, I can just be friendly with her drifts away like smoke from my mind.

Ladies the lads got a point, as bad as it may sound coming from him, he has just I red his views albeit copied views
