From my understanding so far, as long u meet the needs of the people, u will definitely sell. The most popular skill work here, is Tailoring and Hairdressing. As long as u package urs properly, u will sell, most might be poor but don't joke with their hairs and clothes. One of the cheapest hairdo with long attachment here is about 10k cefa.
Tailoring is lucative too especially when u locate your shop around places that have high concentration of Nigerians or inside Tokpa market.
There is this Nigerian lady that made a clothe for my friend for 20k cefa and I was wondering . Though wasn't too surprised cos we found it hard locating a female Nigerian tailor until we met her. If u wish to make enquiry of any kind from her on sewing, u can reach out via her Whatsapp number +2348067741738. She even makes fine beach wears for ladies.

Meanwhile most of their products here come from Nigeria like good soft bread except u wan eat the Tapalapa as I use to know it from other African countries. Very hard bread but adored here. Things like noodle, spaghetti, soaps, beverages, detergents etc all come from naija.
Sales of building materials are good too cos they long gigantic useless houses when they pick small money lol.
Sales of sewing machine accessories and manual machine sales is a good deal and it sells very fast.
Sales of fanciful home furnitures is bae here and our naija guys are deep in it. Sales of low quality mattress is bae too
Bike parts is lucrative. Motorpart is good too from my recent discovery is goid. It has high profit margin same with stuffs like printers, scanners etc.
2nd hand Android phones not above 60k cefa is a good deal as long as it does WhatsApp. They even buy HTC till date.
Phone repairs and laptop repairs and sales, will pay u well here if u are competent in it.
*Note: learn all skills in naija cos coming to learn it here is very expensive.
If u wanna deal on 2nd hand clothes, bags and shoes, u can buy and sell in naija or shift to another city to sell. U can start this with little money if u don't have enough money for bale, u can come urself or locate a trusted fellow to do picking for u which I even prefer cos in bales, u must surely get some rubbish. No matter what, the profit is still cool.
Ssales of Electricals is also a nice biz, Running a bar is nice too cos them like enjoyment oo.
If u have strength to sell naija foods with good location, u will be cashing out well. Etc. I don tire to write abeg

Science/Technology / Re: How To Generate Electricity From Dirty Water Using Microbes by ManIzHot: 12:55pm On Feb 20, 2023
FarmTech:
The anode can be made from graphite, carbon brush (best), carbon cloth, carbon veil, stainless steel mesh etc. The cathode can be made from activated carbon (AC), modified activated carbon, AC mixed with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and pasted on a stainless steel mesh, carbon black, carbon black modified with aerogel, carbon nanotubes (CNT), carbon nanofibers (CNF) graphene etc. Don't let these names scare you though. Some of them are quite simple to obtain. For example, you can use the lead in pencil as graphite. You can make activated carbon by treating charcoal with chemicals like lemon juice, bleach, potassium hydroxide, calcium chloride, phosphoric acid etc.

What happens in a MFC is that microbes attached to the anode surface will eat organic matters and produce:

1. Carbon dioxide (CO2)
2. hydrogen ions H+ and
3. electrons.

The electrons will flow externally from anode to the cathode as follows: from the microbes to the anode; anode to copper wire; copper wire to the load and load to the cathode. This electron flow generate electricity that powers the load.

Internally, the hydrogen ions will flow to the cathode chamber through the separating membrane where it will combine with electrons and oxygen to form water.

One disadvantage of microbial fuel cell (MFC) is their low power output. A MFC with a 1 square meter anode surface area will produce only about 0.4 miliwatt depending on the type and components used. You need about 1 watt (1000 miliwatt) to light up a high power LED light. So a MFC needed to light up this LED will need to have an anode surface area of about 2500 square meter (Roughly one-third of a football field!). But there is hope due to new scientific advances that have been made after years of research. By using specially made electrodes and more effective configurations, power output have been boosted (up to 2 watts per square meter!). By connecting the output of many MFC in series or parallel, MFCs have been successfully used to power LED lights and even charge mobile phones.

Pic of 1w Led
Pic of series parallel

Soil-based microbial fuel cells
In this type of MFC, the anode is buried few centimeters in the soil while the cathode rest on top of the soil (or it is slightly buried), and is exposed to air. The soil must be wet and rich in organic matters like dead leaves, manure etc.




This is great resource here, thanks for this, I might contact you for further clarification

Emotional maturity, she thought marriage is a bed of roses. Ask people who are celebrating 20, 30, 50 years in marriages they will tell u they are celebrating many years of tolerance. Because you brought few properties into ur husband house, he shouldn't have a say over u abi?

Must it always be about tolerance endurance bla bla bla, why can't marriage be sweet for once! Why can't two adult stay true to themselves with all honesty and love

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: How I Got Three Big Jobs In Two Months by ManIzHot: 2:40pm On Aug 18, 2022
chapwiz:
Indeed what God cannot do does not Exist. At the beginning of this year I have been praying for a change of job. And I have been actively searching and applying for job online, To the glory of God, on the evening of 29/03/2022, I check my email and behold an interview invite from a big oil company the interview is to hold on First week of April, so I printed the interview invite and I wrote “What God cannot do does not Exist” #NSPPD

On the interview date, I attended the interview via virtual.
The interview went well as I was interviewed by whitemen and on April 3rd again I received another job interview invite from another company schedule for Second week of April, we had the interview and it also went well and in few days, the second company I had interview with offered me employment I was so happy and am to resume in May.,

I resume my new job second week of May, Just few days after my resumption, I got another job interview invite from another big oil company and because I was still on induction with the new company I then tell them to postpone it to ending of May which they did I then attended the interview on the new date and it went very well also I wasn’t really worried if the two other companies got back to me or not because I already started a new job.

few days later last oil company I had interview with contacted me with salary offer the salary was good but I just declined it I don’t really know what came over me so just first week of June, again same company offer me another salary increment and I accepted It and signed the offer and contract documents while they are preparing me to resume at third week of June, The first oil company I had interview with, contacted me and offer me double of what the two company gave me I couldn’t believe my eyes I didn’t waste time to accept and they ask when I would like to resume so I told them in a month time.

On the plea that I want to give a one month notice to my present employer which they accepted (and so I fit also collect one more salary b4 I resign ), after the signing of the contract the second I was to resume with in June call me and told me to resume since I have accepted the second salary they offer to me, I humbly reply them that while waiting for their response I got engaged with other activities and thank them for contacting me and finding me fit for the role.

In a space of three months I switched in between two big oil company and I declined one.
The Lord has Favour me...It can only be God


Congratulations bro, may i know what your major is?

Politics / Re: Kano Police Officer Rewarded For Rejecting $200,000 Bribe by ManIzHot: 2:40pm On Aug 17, 2022
There is a thin line between corruption and prosperity. One is when only a few people benefits. The other is when everyone benefits. Fact, it is not a government system that corrupted a society. It is people that corrupts a society.

Daniel Amah would have benefit from the bribe alone if he had collected it, and the arm robbers would have escaped justice and be reintroduced to the society where they start terrorizing people again.

If there is a person whom we know 100% would use their power for the prosperity and happiness of the people just like The Divisional Police Officer of Nasarawa Station in Kano State, Daniel Amah did, it would be stupid not to give them all the power in the world or appreciate them.

But fact is, there is very few like like that. That is why we have government systems. To check and balance the power of those who are in power so that even if they do get corrupted, their corruption would be held at bay but unfortunately Nigerians breathing in and out corruption, we feed on it we live in it, it is practically in our blood.

But the good news is that we can always retrace our steps to better us and be like this police office, let us do what we preach, let us be truthful in all our dealings, avoid cheating. May God help us all.

Crime does not pay! But instead of paying attention, they go about doing things that they don't want other people do to them or their loved ones. When they are caught, they act and appear repentant as if they are actually repentant.

To inspire them to double down on their good work and lift their spirits of the security apparatus set to achieve this, the government should make sure that its provisions are fully carried out and arm them with cutting-edge and potent combat methods so they can get rid of these bad apples that might still want to continue with attacks.

Global Positioning Systems (GPS) and Geographic Information Systems (GIS) should be used by the government to collect intelligence. The tracking of everyone's activities within the area where this threat of disorder is present would be made easier by using this digital fighting technique.

Every state in the nation should establish these digital combat tactics in light of the aforementioned claim. This would make anyone planning to introduce any form of chaos to be fearful and aware that these digital devices are watching them.

We think that when the government works to put an end to insecurity in a more practical way, the difficulties will be overcome. May peace and tranquility return to the nation's various regions. May everyone who is against our beloved nation lay their heads in shame!

Jobs/Vacancies / Re: What Happened After I Removed The Lies From My CV by ManIzHot: 11:40am On Jul 31, 2022
Mystery2020:
I have shared my experience here of how I got a job when I lied on my CV
I eventually resigned and decided to start afresh.

I got an invitation for interview at a small boutique in Ikoyi with a "clean" CV. The name of the company is A***** S****** A.M. limited. Their colour is green and orange.

The MD who is a governing member of a professional body told me to do something about my "honest" CV, that he does not like the gaps. He said I should go online to find templates. He repeated the same thing when I met with him again two months later. He did not employ me.

A month later, I applied for a job in the UK without any "CV" or satanic interview. All I submitted was a cover letter stating my educational background and skills. I was given some tasks as test and I got hired.

Congratulations, what was this job you got in UK? And is it remote?
Romance / Re: My Girlfriend Called Me A Coward Because Of This. by ManIzHot: 7:41pm On Jul 19, 2022
ublight:
So guys, yesterday I took my babe out to just sit out and have a swell time together in one of those lounges in uyo. I was with 3k physical cash, and my gtb debit card had over 60k. All was just for flexing.

My new Samsung galaxy barely 2 months old was in my pocket and guys I value this fone more than any other property of mine at the moment. The fone is my cash cow. The fone usually makes between 30 to 40k for me weekly.

So straight to the matter, babe said she wanted to get pizza first so we headed to domino's. Just few meters away from domino's is uniuyo town campus, and the gate also doubles as a park. And as u know, where there is a park, there are touts.


Omo four guys started shouting and pointing at me. 'na him be that. Na him be that. Catch am'.

I didn't know what to do so I kept going. I told babe to walk ahead of me like she didn't know me. I didn't know what to expect and I didn't want to involve her cos I was sure those guys were coming towards my direction. As least I am a guy I can always find an escape route.


These touts/cultists came towards me and claimed that I slept with their capons babe. That they will deal with me. I told them they were mistaken cos I don't fornicate ��.


Mehn dey began to cap. Telling me dey are vikings (like I even care. Who viqueens epp). I was scared, more than scared as dey started requesting for my fone and checking me for cash.


I swore they would not even touch my fone. What nonsense! Taking that fone would be equivalent to dragging me backwards for two years.

I jumped into one mini bus nearby and told d driver to zoom off that I will pay him. The driver being a b*tch ass nigga told me he didn't want any problems with those guys that I should leave his vehicle. Mehn my breathing heightened - an evidence that I was nervous to the peak.



I stepped out of the mini bus, and by this time it was already becoming a scene. Folks thought I was guilty of something nobody wanted to help. Their voices drowned mine their hands were all over me.

I just thought within my self that I wasn't gonna be used for suya by irresponsible and degenerates whose lives and future had been harzaded and wrecked. Heck these guys were gone past redemption. I doubt their mothers would weep over their dead bodies. I'm pretty sure their mothers had laid curses on them, regretted not aborting them. Their fathers drunk and useless, old beggars. Probably dead.


Babe was watching from a distance. She felt helpless. She would have come closer to help but I knew that was useless. I kept maintaining eye contact with her warning her not to come any closer. I could see the tears we'll up in her eyes. I felt broken, but I could not let it end that way.

I remembered the story of those uniport guys that were burnt many years ago cos of false alarm. I told myself that wasn't my lot.

Something just kept delaying these God forsaken souls from carrying out their heinous act immediately. Seems like they were waiting for more of their crew. The just kept holding on to me but took nothing.

Trust gen z's to pull out their fones to capture the moment. Foolish children. Instead of trying to find out the reason for the commotion, they felt at ease to capture and encourage the commotion.

One Rick shaw rider just slowed down to see what was going on. I saw an opportunity present itself and I was grateful. I forced my self closer to the keke. The man was uncomfortable with me approaching so he tried to move away. As he doubled his acceleration, I quadrupled mine.

Confused, he decided he was not going to watch anymore before he got involved in something bigger than he had bargained.

As he tried to zoom off, I threw my self into the air. Those boys didn't see that coming. Their grip had loosened. I jumped and clinged on the keke. The rider got more frightened and increased his speed. When we had gone a safe distance, he asked me what happened and I told him. He asked me to check if anything was missing. Gladly only a hundred naira was missing.


This was around 4pm. I told babe to go home that I was gonna see her later. Went to my hood and shared the story with one street og.

Without mentioning the frat to him, nigga told me it had to b vikings. Told me what to do if such happens again. He also tried to get me join his frat to avoid future intimidation. I politely declined, gave him 2k and left.

Got home, called babe to ask her how far. She started laughing and calling me a coward. She meant it as a joke, but it was demasculating and demeaning.

I think I am done with her.
What do you guys think? Am I over reacting?

Which state did this happened

Good evening house.
My phone got stolen last year November. The thief cut my window net and stole my phone along with the charger through the window. I woke up around 4.a.m searching for my phone with no success till I looked at the window and saw the big hole staring at me. I was so shocked is an understatement.

I have replaced my phone but right now I wake up in the night and start looking for my phone even if I must have safely keep it.

I wake up and first thing I search for, is my phone.
I open eyes, first thing I want to see, is my phone. sad


How do I stop this biko? grin Who have experienced this? Is it panic attack or what?




Bro, only if human know and consider the negative side effects committing atrocity do to human, probably the world woulda be a better place.

Student days: I was robbed in ife(oau) they came with gun and dagger, took our laptops and cellphones

Here in Lagos: former apartment, Thief came in the night, due to scream of neighbors they couldn't stay long but they came to our passage and went with my expensive safety boot.

Lagos, current apartment: Thief came around in the night and stole a neighbor phones and accessories.

My current state: Anytime I bring laptop home from office, I will have to hide it, I can't even work or study at night anymore.

I will also hide my phones, any small sound I am awake.

I never knew I have been so negatively affected until I went to my friend's place with my laptop cause we were supposed to work on a project, in the night, I had to ask her where I can hide my laptop, everyone was just laughing, main while they have series of laptops left around without fear.

I had to shook my head, and I was like damn I have been psychologically messed up. I still hid my laptop though

Sigh
