Did you do yours with any ?

humblesteve:
Can't remember saying i needed a means of identification here. Thanks anyway.

uvie66:
but what I don't understand is why are the ibos so myopic that they can't learn from history ? Ojukwu tried this nonsense and it never worked same with the IRA in northern Ireland or is it Catalonia

humblesteve:
To do what ?

humblesteve:
Risk, I meant can’t go and if it happens I don’t get it that quick it will be a risk due to my job.


Lol

humblesteve:
I wish this is realistic everywhere or every eastern states as you said... would just use the opportunity to go visit home oh but can’t risk it.

humblesteve:

Hmmm SMH is this what am going to face too? A friend I contacted to help me with his contact who could facilitate the process said there was no booklet too just last week...and I need this stuff ASAP

And he said it would cost me 50k

uvie66:
Another nonsense talk, if the man was serious about the message he intends to portray why send out pictures of himself and wife partially naked, is this the way to make a case for Biafra independence or is he looking for a role in Nollywood porn.

hisholar2:
of course bro. Living was meant to be cheap here lol

tunjibadosnen:
Honestly if he had not run he would have gotten international sympathy there by making it difficult for President Mohamodu Buhari to continue with his trial or at worse made him loose the election to Atiku

Guestlander:
Of course, everyone is guilty except for the guy who must film a sexual act with himself and his wife as the stars.

midolian:
This p0rnstar is just flexing in his own paradise

NaijaElba:

You're turning this into another playground for your ego and I think it's wrong. Your theories about first and last loving most just makes me laugh, I don't think many mothers will fall into the numbers that will see any kid of theirs regardless of birth order suffering and will turn a blind eye or favor one above another. I don't have an example of that because my mum & grand mum will give an eye and arm to make any of their offsprings comfortable if they had to so I don't understand where you're coming from. I'm determined not to favor any of my kids above another, it's something I'll take very great care to avoid doing.

cooltola:
My bro time has changed sha. The culture is changing, what if the younger siblings are not happy with the tradition. When like you said, life is unfair

Mizwisdom:
I think you just like stroking your ego, that's what this first son thing is for you, a way to validate your importance in your mind as well as others. Well, it's unfortunate that there seems to be a complex in you that requires this validation. As for first son taking care of parents automatically that's false, sometimes he can die, some times he can be irresponsible as in this case, sometimes he may be more focused on his own immediate family which is his responsibility as well, sometimes he may not be doing as well as others financially especially in homes where all are educated This is why the idea of focusing on just one child is primitive and stupid.

You don't need to assume anything because I'm not from your tribe and by God's grace I'll never be neither will my kids, good luck on your search

Excuzeme:
I have been hearing this part the wailing from the children of Hate and Anger, since 2015!
E never reach make una kill this Jibrin niii?
Useless lots.

Mizwisdom:
For sake of annomity I won't mention my tribe but somewhere near you. I was passed down inheritance from one of my grand parent too, I got brodas too. That's why I'm saying not all tribes not all tribes, I'm not the first son or daughter, I'm in between. That's why I'm cautioning here because we were never raised to expect only first son or male kids to inherit things. Families & tribes are different sha, that's why I'm saying don't generalise, maybe if you had said in Igbo land initially I will understand.


PS: I'm educated, I make my own money so why will I depend on my first son's inheritance?(if I'm Igbo) is that why my parents wasted money sending me to school? I think you need to realise that females now work & earn their money unlike before, some are richer than their husband's, some build houses unlike before, it seems you don't notice what is happening, makes me feel you're above 60.

Benekruku:
Kanu should please shut the fvck up

He is becoming a nuisance

So Buhari is not dead again?

Kanu needs brain surgery

Mizwisdom:
What you're saying doesn't really make sense. I'm a lady, and I can't show any preference to any first son. If I get pregnant, it's still the same 9 months I will carry all my kids so why so much first son, first son emphasis? I think this is more pronounced among Igbos because of inheritance but in my tribe all children inherit properties so why will I pay special attraction to first son, or if I have a senior daughter, I will still look for first son to love more? please it's not all mothers/fathers that show preference, it's very wrong, stop this first son talk especially as you're elderly, your other kids will know and might likely abandon you for your first son.

HajimeSaito:
Do you have any family elders or do you know any responsible Pastor? It sounds as if the opinion of a neutral and unbiased outsider is what you need.

MrDojo:
Bro, it's good to be confident, but don't be overconfident. 90% of people outside Nigeria won't read 9ja style of fiction. Unlike nonfiction, it is far easier to 'sell' fiction novels (it you know what your doing). My humble advice for you is to publish one of your novels on sites like royalroad and Webnovel... See how other people from other parts of the world will react to it. You don't have to follow my advice though. Lastly, if your want to sell lots of books, either become a famous, or consistent author... Or, target holiday seasons (e.g. when student in America are out of school...)

If possible, write for the US audience. Because, that's where you'll get most of your sales from.

Disclaimer: Fiction or nonfiction, it doesn't really matter. If you can market your book well it will sell. It does not have to be good, a lot authors make serious money from publishing crap (fiction)... I'm not talking about 1-7k here ooo... 20k+


P.s. If your grammar is not good, please get an editor. You can publish without one, but your readers will kill the book via the reviews (if there are errors)...

Good luck ���

What is not clicking in your head with regards to nonfiction?

In nonfiction (unlike fiction), you're simply solving a problem - thats it.

If for e.g someone has depression/anxiety issues and they're looking for a way to relieve their anxiety, they can go on Amazon and search for "Anxiety relief tips" or "Ways to relieve anxiety" etc.

If those keywords are profitable, and your book happens to be on page 1 for those keywords, your book gets purchased.

There's no magic to it.

The only challenge is finding those profitable keywords. Once you find a keyword is profitable you then look for a way to add value to that market. Don't just copy what other people are doing, you find an angle for your book..address something other books/competitors aren't addressing.

Once your book is unique, the customer will then have a reason to buy yours instead of the other person's book.

There's nothing complicated about non-fiction.

Fiction, on the other hand, is a whole different ball game (Won't pretend I know anything about it). I'm content with specializing in non-fiction. Each to their own i guess.
