I've never and will never smoke,nor do drugs......

Nobody cares about you oga, if you like drink water & eat bread

You go ask Google, nobody get time to answer you

BGSM:
If truly Mohbad is a drug addict, the questions are
1. At what age did he start taking drugs?
2. Who introduced it to him?
3. Who are the people with fact that knows about his drug addiction and never reported to the agency that kick against it?
4. Are most of this artist drug addicts and drug traffickers?

Please I need answers

Nice reply

Think9ja:
.

Who asked you?
If you like don't even drink Fanta, the day death comes calling no daddy G.O can stop it

Leave these ignorant old niggas alone to be talking rubbish. Of all the people to accuse someone of doing drugs, it's naira Marley, the biggest drug user & dealer. Mohbad was bullied till he died by naira Marley, his crew & connections in this music industry. If na so drugs dey kill person, everybody for this music industry should be dead.

Nemesis0147:
sorry but he was not suffering from any Tinnitus or whatever.
Have you been following the story since last year?

Is like you don’t know the industry…..why did Naira start accusing him of drug abuse just after he insisted on leaving the label?

They were just blacklisting him in the industry.

He lost a lot shows because of this drug allegations….he do drug reach Naira?
The video full twitter…..the guy was too cold for a fault…

Watch some of his interviews….they tormented the guy till his last.

You cant stop, you're in too deep already. Just keep it going till you're caught or find a new job, because everyday for the thief, 1 day for the owner

They've been stealing telecom mast parts since, luckily telecom isnt a government thing that's why they employ security to watchover their site.

maleekberry:
The government needs to do something urgent about these guys that steals iron bars, metals and steels all over nigeria.

This idiot don even upgrade his act to the point of looting the cemetery.

Before nah rail tracks, manhole covers, brdge railings, and drainage covers dem dey steal, which one again is iron used for cemetery .

If care is not taken they will begin to cut those telecom mast and sell the irons to the Chinese

Don't resign yet no matter how pained you feel. Since you said it won't be hard for your team to generate income why not do that on the side quietly & painfully, don't be afraid to use your CEOs resources to grow your side hustle. When you are sure that you have enough money saved then you can resign and focus on the side hustle & continuing to generate income. Life is very equitable, you'll receive from it what you give to it.

Dickcap:
Good morning Nairalanders
I would like to seek your advice. I'm presently working at a farm company where I hold the post of Assistant Manager. Forget the position I hold oo cause the salary is less than 60k.
Due to the harsh economy, we are currently facing, the CEO said he does not have the power to pay our salary again and that we should find a way to generate income to pay our salary.
It won't be hard for my team to generate income to pay salary but we would have problems with the CEO cause he's the kind of person that loves taking over any money we make from the farm

Similar to how alcohol affects people differently. Somethings are not everybody, you choose what works for you.

kay29000:
That's the point in bold. If there is a possibility of it affecting some people negatively, then there is a problem. I agree that my head no carry am... It is not for me. I hate when people overlook cases like mine or worse cases, and say it wasn't caused by marijuana.

Imagine if you had smoked GG4 aka gorilla glue or simple Canadian loud, you might have died. Marijuana isn't for everybody, because you think it affects your mental negatively, doesn't mean it's so for everybody.

kay29000:
While cigarettes affects your physical health (which affects just the user), marijuana affects people's mental, which can turn them to a menace to the society. There is a big difference.

I can never forget the first time I ate SK... I almost lost my mind. I looked in the mirror, in my mind, I wasn't smiling but in the mirror, I was smiling. After that experience, I never tried that again.

Yes o 100%, ask the dealers who they pay taxes to.

MeaslesMumpsRub:
Canabis is taxed by Nigeria Police.
If you know you know.


Cannabis should be controlled not criminalised. Plenty cheddar to be made

He isnt only talking rubbish, he's also spreading false information

WATCHOVER:
The Man is not talking rubbish, you just need to calm down, Nigeria law enforcement and regulations are weak.

For real, the man doesn't know what he's saying, he just wants to use Grammer and confuse people watching TV. I've smoked alot of weed; different strains and I know for a fact that the THC in our locally grown weed is weak AF, it can't even match those sold overseas and their government didn't impose any law enforcing them to remove all the THC. Their laws guide them to regulate the chemical compounds including THC, to FDA approved quantities to improve the quality & medical benefits. Only stupid people will believe what these fools are saying, as soon as they can
figure out how to make billions of dollars from marijuana they'll amend the laws and cashout.

Sablexxxtoons:
This man is talking rubbish.. so legalised canada loud is weaker than our local weed ?

Don't use big English to lie..thc is higher in legal foreign weed than our local weed

Its just hypocrisy and extortion as well as dangerous for weed to be illegal and tobacco is legal

The problem I have with cyber security is that getting jobs overseas isn't easy because companies that deal in cyber security prefer to employ their citizens because they deal with matters of national security.

The brain responds to the onslaught of dopamine that comes with constant and escalating porn use by reducing its number of dopamine receptors. This blunting of dopamine sensitivity may lead to problems like erectile dysfunction, delayed ejaculation, depression, and social anxiety.

“Rebooting” refers to taking a break from all artificial sexual stimuli so that the brain can restore and replenish dopamine receptors that were lost in response to the overconsumption of pornography.

https://drag.com.ng/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/How-Do-You-Know-When-Its-Time-to-Rebrand-1.png
Rebranding is vital to the success of any business, even the strongest and most established brands have a shelf life. Due to the unpredictability of the market, the shifting priorities of customers, and a million otherworldly forces beyond the control of any company, a brand is only fresh and relevant for five to ten years.  

Rebranding is a concept that is bound to come up at a point in the life cycle of every brand, it is the systematic process of reshaping the perception and identity of a brand to reposition it in the marketplace. During a rebrand, changes are made to the key identifiers of a brand like its name, logo, colors, tagline, or website. 

The decision to kick off the process of a rebrand is one that usually precedes hours of careful planning and strategic deliberation. Data from the research informs the strategy or brand positioning, where a brand is repositioned according to customer needs and marketplace opportunities. 

The most effective rebrands start with research into current brand perceptions to ascertain that of both internal and external stakeholders. Building and maintaining a strong brand helps attract more customers who are willing to pay more thereby improving the capacity to attract and retain your business’s next most valuable asset: your employees. Only after research and strategy does a rebrand proceed to the identity phase, where the visual and verbal identities of a brand are reimagined. Visual identity includes logos, colors, typography, and photography. Verbal identity includes names, taglines, and messaging. 

So, how do you know when it’s time to rebrand? While the timing differs for every business, there are a few telltale signs a rebrand is necessary. 

1. When consumers find it hard to differentiate you from the competition. 

Differentiating your brand from the competition is all about being unique and memorable while presenting yourself to potential customers. Difficulty in differentiating brands occur quite a lot in the marketplace due to similarities in brand identifiers and or service/product delivery methods. Most consumers may find it hard to differentiate a brand from another when brand identifiers are alike. This is an indication that a rebrand is due and it is followed by strategic efforts to be unique and stand out to be easily identifiable from the crowd.  

Some ways that you can set yourself apart from the competition include - 

Change brand visual and verbal identifiers 
Improve product quality and service delivery level and be the absolute best at what you do. 
Change Packaging of products and mode of service delivery. 
Change customer interaction approach. 
Incorporate different variations of the same product by being more creative and flexible. 
Be adaptive and attentive to customer behavior and needs in order to adjust quickly and position favorably

2. When you feel like your brand Identifiers like logos, business cards or websites are out of touch. 

As a brand ages, public perception of the trending designs change according to emerging and recent technologies. If not kept in check, customers will lose the connections they had to such a brand and you will be left with an out-of-touch brand with stale identifiers. To reconnect with the target audience, steps that can be taken include but are not limited to the following- 

Revamp the Website and create new media files with a modern state-of-the-art touch. 
Design business cards that incorporate quality design and provide needed information relevant to access you and your brand. 
Adopt modern interaction methods like encouraging feedback and correspondence between yourself and loyal/potential customers. 

3. When your brand vision is not streamlined or focused on a unifying mandate. 

Your brand's vision is a clear statement of intent that outlines what your company wants to achieve and helps define your future strategy by ensuring that a common mandate is being worked towards by team members in order to achieve a common goal. When such a statement is not defined, it harms a brand in the long run because various members of the team will begin to work on different targets instead of aggregating efforts towards a common goal, this is counterproductive and detrimental to the forward trajectory of growth. 

Ways to ensure that vision is streamlined towards a unifying mandate include - 

Rebrand to create a clear and defined Vision statement and share it with every brand stakeholder to ascertain a common awareness of it. 
Hold stakeholders' meetings to make said intentions known and enforce compliance. 

4. When there’s a drastic change in business model or strategy. 

As stated earlier, the world is changing, and with it comes the requirement that brands change to adapt to today's volatile market. However, changes do not necessarily require that brands launch a new product or begin to render new services. Sometimes, all that is needed is just to adopt a new business model or strategic approach to position your brand in the best position to maximize opportunities associated with the new technologies and maximize profit. Rebranding at this point makes it possible to incorporate the new methods in your brand identifiers and allow the public to become aware of your new and improved mode of operation. 

An example that has successfully changed its business model to match technological advances in the marketplace is Netflix which has over the years transitioned from an online DVD rental service to a streaming platform, then to a content provider. This great feat could only be achieved because of a total overhaul in business model and strategy, and complete awareness of technological advances and how best to incorporate them to maximize profits. 

Reasons why brands change strategy or business models include- 

Unpreceded market movements bring up a need to change with the changing market. 
Changes in consumer taste and behavior. 
Technological innovations and advancements require corresponding adjustments. 
Attempting to appeal to a new population. 

5. When there’s a significant transition in management and business structure such as a merger or an acquisition. 

In the event of significant changes in management or leadership, a rebrand becomes imperative to allow the new administration to assert their views and methodologies to the general stakeholders and the general public. This cuts across all aspects of business because it encompasses the creation of a new vision and mission statement which may not be far off from that of the previous management. It sets the atmosphere so that members of the team are aware of a common mandate that new management is working towards and consumers also feel connected, and kept in the loop. 

6. When expansion or relocation to another geographical  location occurs 

Relocating from one geographical location to another may occur for different reasons, it could be for search of a more favourable market base, better access to factors that influence production of goods and service delivery, or just a change in scenery to have a sense of fresh beginnings. However, for whichever reason you relocate, it is important to reshape brand image to create awareness and make a “buzz” to alert new potential customers that you are now within reach and are quite competent to provide to needs within the niche you specialize. 

7. When making efforts to disassociate from former acquaintances that are bad for business. 

Rebranding offers an opportunity to rewrite the narrative and set the tone of how a brand is perceived from that moment on. When a scandal ensues and it has the potential to harm the reputation and public image of your brand, that might be the perfect time to rebrand. This makes it possible to clear the air and begin on a new slate with your loyal customers. It also sends a clear message to stakeholders that the brand is focused on what's important and is intent on staying profitable in the long run. 

8. When trying to connect to a new audience. 

We all know that in recent years mobile browing has consistently grown to become the greater share of internet traffic, the younger generation has become more influential on the internet and is becoming the key demographic of businesses. As a result, responsive and adaptive design have become key prerequisites of design in the digital sphere to make the mobile experience as hitch-free as possible. This means that you have to periodically optimize your web platforms and digital outlets to integrate the latest trends and accommodate the younger population while appealing to their nature. Rebranding in this case is paramount to make it known to the target demographic that your brand is now more accessible to them and it serves as a great avenue to sell to them the new and improved additional benefits that they stand to gain by interacting with your brand. 

 

In conclusion, the decision to rebrand is never an easy one to make. However, to compete and survive in the modern, ever-changing global market, there is a need to keep a constant eye out for emerging trends and essential pointers that indicate that a new approach has to be taken to achieve company goals. At first, this may be inconvenient, but in the long run, it yields the best possible outcome. All this article does is just highlight a few of those tell signs that indicate that your brand is due for a rebrand.

In web development, a domain name represents the address that web users use to access a website’s location on the global DNS system. It offers a user-friendly means to access the unique IP address of a website which is a string of numbers and other characters specific to each website.

Choosing an optimal domain name is very vital to the online development and overall growth of a brand. An effective domain name can be good for business, and can enhance the visibility of a brand online while yielding more productivity.

Domain names are registered with registrars which are essential services that can register new domain names and in many cases host applicants’ websites for a fee. Examples are GoDaddy.com, Network Solutions, Bluehost, and Domain.com. Registering a domain typically means signing a contract with a registrar that describes the terms under which the registrar will manage that domain name (or host the website).

For any brand, a domain is the foundation of its website. It is one of the first and most important decisions to be made by anyone intending to own a website and its consequences are evident for a very long time. How do you give it the proper time and attention? What should you consider? This article highlights 5 factors that every potential website owner must put into consideration when choosing a domain name if they are to reap the maximum benefit of their online platform.


The Shorter the Better
An important factor to put into consideration when choosing a domain name is its length. A short domain name is more attractive to users because it’s typically easier to remember. It is catchy and chic, and users can conveniently recommend it and refer to it in conversations. Depending on what a brand represents, a shorter domain name has a higher probability of going viral than a long one. For instance, a user would rather visit naijabeads.com than an alternative site with originalnaijawoodenbeads.com as its domain name although they render a similar service.

Shorter domain names are suitable for easy access on mobile devices on the go with the least likelihood of typographical errors while typing the address into a browser.

However, there are a few constraints when going for a short domain name and one of them is that the availability of that name is very unlikely. Also, because of the associated advantages, short domain names are typically more pricey to purchase.


Choice of Extension
An Extension is also known as a Top-Level Domain is the rightmost part of a URL that comes after the brand name. It typically tells a story about the domain name associated with it such as its purpose (for example Commercial entities typically go for “.com”, Educational institutions: “.edu”, Governmental Agencies: “.gov”, and many more), it can also convey information about the geographical area it was created in. Examples of such extensions include “.co.uk”, ”.us” and “.com.ng”.

Today, the most popular extension on the web is “.com” and it is arguably the best for a plethora of reasons. That said, it is possible to register a unique extension that relates directly to your brand such as “.beer” or “.luxury” to convey your identity to users at a glance and to have a sense of uniqueness.

A disadvantage of the lesser common extensions is that they rank lower on search engines when the keywords associated with the brand are searched and therefore not so good for SEO.


Availability
Thousands of domain names are registered every day and it is very critical to carry out early, extensive research on any domain name intended to be registered to a brand to ensure its availability.

This is done to check if similar names that can cause a conflict of interests already exist and also avoid the infringement of the legal rights of the name owner and thereby saving a considerable amount of effort and money that will go into attempting to register such a domain name.

For a domain name to be trademarked, it must be distinctive and its root must possess a deeper meaning exclusive to the brand. An intending website owner would have to act fast and protect any name they choose to go with by registering misspellings and similar names to make sure no one else can use it and also redirect users who make errors in spelling to their website.

Platforms such as instantdomainsearch.com, name.com, hostinger.com, and godaddy.com are readily available for checking the availability of a domain name.


Ease of Typing
Today, a large percentage of web users access the internet through mobile devices and they expect a seamless and stress-free experience in every interaction. Having an easy to type domain name gives an edge over websites with more complicated names.

It is generally not advisable to include numbers, words that are hard to spell, and special characters such as hyphens to a domain name. This option is usually considered in the case of two-or-three word domain names and should be avoided at all costs.

Including numbers in domain names makes them confusing because users who hear it are not sure if they are to write out the digits or spell out the numbers when typing the domain name into their browser.

For example, “ 24miles.com “ can be written as “ twentyfourmiles.com ” and also as “twenty-four-miles.com”. While the hyphenated variation is the least recommended, an added precaution that can be taken is to register both the spelled-out version and the one with the digits so that users can be redirected to a chosen one regardless of which they type in.


Brand Driven or Keyword Driven Domain Name?
Choosing an optimal domain name that plays to the strengths of a brand’s name and also incorporates at least one of the keywords associated with the brand will make it rank high among the giants of SEO with far less work. This in turn creates more visibility for the brand online and yields more productivity.
