6. Barber

We have male hairdressers but we hardly have any female barbers. Barbers make plenty of money. Haircuts aren’t cheap. Ladies, let’s get in formation and get our own barber shops.

5. Fitness Trainer

Ever notice how all the fitness trainers in most gyms are cute buff guys? Many women are getting fit and buff too. It’s high time we had more female fitness trainers.

4. Construction Worker

Construction workers make tons of money daily. They get paid per day. Payment can range between 3,000-7,000 Naira per day. Sadly, there are not many women in construction. It might be labour intensive but I’m seeing Naira signs over there.

3. Commercial bus driver
Maybe because the Agberos (area boys) are usually male and can be intimidating that’s why we don’t have many female danfo drivers. Danfo drivers be raking in cash on a daily basis.

2. Wrestler/Boxer

Funny how we hardly see female wrestlers or boxers in Naija. Everyone knows Bash Ali, the legendary Nigerian boxer. But what of Bash Simbi or something? Boxers and wrestlers make millions. Ladies, time to port careers.

Many jobs are male-dominated

It’s not like women can’t do these jobs, we are just not encouraged to. I
remember the shock on people’s faces when they see a female engineering
student back in University.

There are so many career fields in Naija with few women. These jobs pay the
big bucks but women seem to avoid them.


Here are some lucrative jobs Naija women avoid:

1. President

In all my years as a Nigerian, the last general election was the first time I saw
a female presidential candidate. The presidency is a job I’m sure many women
will excel at. It’s time we tried a female president, the leadership has been
dominated way too much by men.

TravelThe Real Reason Behind Switching Ur Phone To Flight Mode When U're Flying by lewispius(op): 11:57am On Jul 05, 2016
You'e on a flight. You're sitting comfortably in your seat with your seat belt on,
ready to take off and then this happens -


Please set your portable electronic device, including mobile phones to flight mode

The minute you're on a flight, you make sure that your cell phone is either switched
off or on flight mode. Even if you forget, the flight's safety announcement will
remind you of the same. If you're still not listening, the flight attendant will make
sure that you do! Because, if not, it will mess up with plane's electrical systems and
the plane might just blow up mid air. You get the drill, right?


Well, No. That's not what's going to happen


Most of us believe that it's just a procedure and not following it will do nothing,
while some of us are sure that the plane will just crash and everybody will die. The
truth is, both the assumptions are incorrect. Till date, there is no such evidence that
proves that, if not switched to flight mode, signals from your cell phone can cause a
plane's malfunction leading it to a crash. In short, no plane crash has ever happened
because a passenger forgot to switch his cell phone to flight mode.


So why exactly are we asked to turn on the flight mode when we're on a flight?


Because the signals can jam the network on the ground.

There are multiple reasons for the safety concern. As you are travelling very fast,
and are more than 10,000 feet in the air, the phone signals will try to connect to
various towers and will send out stronger signals because the weaker the signals your
cell phone picks up from the tower, the stronger the signals it sends out to try and
get a response. Basically, your cell phone communicates with several cell towers and
attempts to maintain a connection at all times and if the towers are far away, the
phone will boost its signal so it can keep communicating with the towers. This has a
potential to interfere with the cellular signals on the ground.


So the Pilots gets annoyed.

Another important reason why you need to switch your phone to flight mode is
because you don't want to annoy the pilots. You may have heard the unpleasant
noise from an audio system, that occasionally happens when a mobile phone is
nearby, right? A phone’s radio emissions can be very strong and can go up to
8W which causes this noise due to parasitic demodulation. Now imagine that noise
on the pilot's headset, while he is receiving a critical information from ground
control. Imagine that noise, constantly, from the phones of over 100 passengers!
Can you imagine how annoying it can get? You need to switch your phone to flight
mode because it's common courtesy, and by doing so, you show your appreciation
to the people doing their job to get you where you want to be.


In a blog post for Airline Updates, a pilot wrote-

"It is not safety critical, but is annoying for sure. If say 50 people on board
are inconsiderate enough who can’t be bothered to switch their mobile
phone off, there will be 50 phones constantly looking for cell towers at
maximum power. That is a lot of radio pollution."


Now, do you really want to annoy the pilot who is about to get you safely to your
destination? I don't think so. So just switch off that cell phone the next time you're
on a flight. We can all do without it for a few minutes.

CelebritiesNigerian Author Gets Insulted On Facebook Over Huge Dreads by lewispius(op): 8:56am On Jul 05, 2016
Nnedi Okorafor is a Nigerian author based in the United States. She’s famous for
her fantasy novels like Akata Witch and other ones.

It’s a little known fact that she has been keeping her hair natural for 15 years and
has never visited a salon.

She decided to show off her dreads on Facebook and she was surprised at the
response from people.

While most of it was positive, she was appalled by the response from Nigerians who
insulted her.

TravelBehold! The Lagos Of The Future by lewispius(op): 12:15pm On Jul 04, 2016
Lagos is pretty close to attaining Mega City Level

With structures like the fourth mainland bridge coming into place, you sure
want to see what the Lagos in the future will look like. Well, you’re close to
the truth or at least an illustration of it.



Here's Olalekan Jeyifous

Olalekan Jeyifous constructs architectural sculptures, installations and murals that
convey social and political and economic issues throughout the globe. He is a
Nigerian-born, Brooklyn-based artist and artist who after receiving a degree
from architecture from Cornell University, designs creative architectural visuals.
He has come up with a project called Shanty Mega Structures which is an
artistic rendering of Lagos in the future. Take a look at what Lekan thinks!
