I am searching for developers to build ios annd android apps. pls reach out if you are an expert and really good. sample work is also needed. Please reach out at nuelchills@yahoo.com

Sent you a mail

Good morning guy, I wish to tell you my experience working with a "One Man Business" in Nigeria.

Note: A start-up is not the same as a "One Man Business". One man Business is a business run by one person. He takes decision alone and also take the risk alone, but a start up could have one or more people to who take decision concerning the progress of the start up.

Working for a "One Man Business" is different from freelancing.

So not to keep you waiting, I will give you signs and things to look for when working for a "One Man Business" as a programmer.


1. They steal ideas.

As a programmer you are the designer, thinker , fixer and also the the one who gets the blames when things goes wrong. You can recommend an idea to solve what you are working on, when you stop working for them , they keep using your ideas without paying you any form of commission and you can't sue them because no documents was signed.

2. They want you to build the best thing after google for them.

I didn't say you can't build your own search engine but building such a project require a team work. You to work with different types of developers to achieve that. But they will want you to build there crazy ideas without considering the fact that such project is very complex without having a good developer team at hand.


3. They don't like to employ more programmers or web designer

If you finally decide to work for them, be rest assured that you will be the only one doing all the things you can do, graphic, seo, content, backup, bug fix, redesign, build, optimize, create responsive design across all platform, security and testing, email marketing, the list is never ending.

Just know that any thing you can do they will assign it to you unless they don't know. You end up doing things that are not in your job description or be ready to lose your job.

4. You may end up using your own money on some task.

5. They are not always patient

These kind of people can't work on long project or believe you when you give them time to finish a particular task. Since they are paying you monthly, they believe you should do the magic so that they won't waste money paying you every month. They will stress you out and always look for ways to cut your salary.

6. They pay very little but expect high expectations

7. Be ready to do other job apart from the one you are employ to do.

8. Don't rely on the job seek for side jobs.

9. They will want you to tech them something but don't teach them.

10. You are must likely to work with your own tools/pc.

I smell foul play.

Hope they won't use this opportunity to double the numbers of voters. Because I don't trust this country and our civil service.

Thanks, brother, for this enlightening post!

I wish you could tell me what first step one could take in deciding to go into making plugins as a beginner in programming. Where does one actually start from?

First download WordPress documentation and see how core php works on WordPress. From there you will understand how to build your own plug-ins or theme

contact me ............ i have build many website with top level industry standard

Olarewaju89:

Thanks for this bro


My question


1. Is there age limitation to start (like above 30 too old)?

2. Can one secure a part time job if I learn programming, because I have govt job already but I need side pay...


Pls reply

Programing don't have age limit.
Yes... You can get side contract while still doing your government job.

She can go into record label just like Davido, let her manager artist. I think she can use her influence or money to boost them and also promote their music.

Donchieli:
Did this guy just say controller General where did your dad meet controller general because he was never at Owerri first of all

secondly the Vice president and his entourage were there present the next day of the attack and from all indications your father didn't return on the same day of the attack so if he didn't return dat day or the next when?

Thirdly you said he called.

How did he put the call across?

To give you all those plenty information

Have you gone to check if he is actually there


Because what they released is the updated list after doing head count and identification of inmates on ground

sorry bro

Your dad is not in Owerri prison

Oga say what you know.
They have call center there, any prisoner can call any of their family members.

We contacted our lawyer and he told him what to do.

Asking me if he is actually there is a dumb question. He was excorted back with some prominent people and his lawyer was aware.

cornelin:
Occasionally visit your dad do as to he sure of his safety

I spoke with him through the mobile phone on last Saturday. Was surprised to see this news.

thebosstrevor1:
To be sincere, there is nothing they can do....they can't retract because of bureaucracy

Just hope they published list of returnees.

Anyway, i know you are scared that it might affect his case in court but i believe the judge will be considerate.

I pray so

thebosstrevor1:
It was posted to newsmedia immediately after the jaibreak.

To be sincere, there is nothing you can do.

No it's was not... I keep following the list since last week while the new list that was posted today was a fresh list.

Why can't they verify before bringing out new list.

Hello my beloved nairalanders i was in my work place around 5:14pm today when i decide to check nairaland for news update when i saw a new list of escapees of owerri custodial center, Imo State.

https://www.nairaland.com/6504699/owerri-jailbreak-names-photos-escaped

I decide to open the link only to see my dad photo among the escapees of owerri custodial center owerri, imo state.

My dad was wrongly accused and he was charge for murder while he works for the former imo state government security network (Ohakim and Rochas) until 2014 when he was accuse of murder while on duty that day, first he was detain for 7 months in zone 9 umuahia until we file for illegal detention at the high court before the officer in-charge had to transfer the case to court and he was remained at owerri prison in 2015 and he has being on awaiting trial till date and we have being going to court since then.

i made a thread seeking for justice then:

https://www.nairaland.com/2068691/please-need-human-rights-lawyers
https://www.nairaland.com/2998894/social-media-hash-tag-dad
please check the date to confirm that what am saying is true.

on Easter Monday we got a news that there was a prison break in owerri and for 24hours we couldnt locate him until he called and tell us his where about. we reach out to his location in owerri and he explain to us how it happens and how everyone was force to run for their life. After the meeting we advise him to go back since his final judgement will be on 20th on this month April, and with the look of things and the witnesses we have we believe he will be free by God grace.

He told us he is already planning to go back because a man of 60+ don't need to be running up and down when he knows he is innocent and the court will believe he is guilty if he fails to show up at the court. we gave him some money and new cloths and he went back the next day being thurday 8th April.

He spoke with us after getting back to the prison and told us how the controller general met him and asked why he choose to return and he told him that his family said he should go back since the final judgement is on 20th of April and besides he is getting old and at his age he cant be running for the law when he knows he is innocent. According to him, the controller general took his photograph and details and promise to look into their matters.

only for me to see his photo again for escapees and this is really bad and heart broken that a country like this will be ill inform and out dated about the details of the prisoner in there custody.

Please nairalanders i don't know anyone to meet or call but i believe i can use this medium to pass my message across to the Nigeria police and also the owerri custodial center, Imo State to plwase remove my fathers photograph among the escapees of owerri custodial centre, Imo State .

My dad Ekenma Richard- former Head of Ngor Okpala Imo state security network with 2 other local government he controls is not a fugitive and i will like the Nigeria Police and also the owerri custodial center, Imo State to please remove his name so as not to mislead the public or make my mother who has being sad for 7 years to start thinking again

Please mod help thanks
below is my dad photo among the escapees

Saao:
that's what is in my mind but it will take time before they get here

It's better than using force

Call the police
