Career / Re: 16 Genuine Ways To Make Money As A Nigerian Student by Nairabird(m): 1:48am On Aug 03, 2021
Siggynigeria:
Knowing the Ways to Make Money as a Nigerian Student is the desire of many students as everyone loves the ability to cater for his personal needs. However, students are seldom puzzled about the “how” of making money while in School. Many have even gone the wrong way, in search of this. Some others have given hope on this as they feel making cash while in school somehow disturbs their education. We certainly do not agree with both the former and latter! There are 101 genuine ways to make money as a student in Nigeria; we however, will list down some few. Sit tight and enjoy the ride!

1. Freelance Writing
We are in the social age now. The demand for freelance writing continues to be on the increase. Amazingly, you don’t even have to be an expert in whatever field you choose to write on.
You can start making money online by putting up your write-ups on publishing platforms such as Medium or Blogger to showcase your writing skills and knowledge which can open you up to writing gigs that will earn you little funds.
You can also make money by offering your writing services for a fee on freelancing platforms such as Upwork or Fiver. Writing is something you can start with gadgets you already have, such as your mobile phone or laptop instead of wondering about getting new appliances to work with.
Also, is recruiting Students as intern writers in order to boost their writing experiences. If you want a website to boost your writing strength before getting your own blog, fill their application form.

2. Supplying Food Items
For example, eggs are the go-to protein for Nigerian students. The number of eggs consumed nationwide daily by Nigerian students we’ll need statisticians to calculate.
It is an excellent small scale business to go into as a student as it requires minimum capital to start. You’ll have standby consumers ready to buy eggs almost as immediately as the hen lays them. You become a mini egg supplier within your peers and then maybe the food canteen around you.
Most people are eager to patronize you as a student because they know you are trying to make ends meet. You can upgrade to running your poultry when you notice how great the business is.
Since students are more likely to be too tired or lazy to attend market runs, they may want the assistance of a vendor or supplier.

3. Sell Data and Airtime
Using mobile data is a daily need for everyone. Students especially like to stay connected to their mobile devices. You can become a distributor of data for the various data needs of students. You can start up by signing up with small scale virtual top businesses and use your circle of friends and neighbours as your startup network. You sell airtime and data in bulk and start earning some stipend for yourself.

4. Assist with Registration
The process of registration is something every student passes through, while some may be ignorant of the process involved and would need a guide to help them through, you can be that guide, offering your services at a fee.
Even though some of your colleagues understand the process, they would love to do away with the hassle registration entails. You can take it up for them and charge a token. Also, you get to guide and help fresh students fast track their registration process.

5. Organising Tutorials
You can make money as a student by teaching. You can teach your peers in school on a particular subject you’re good at, or offer lessons to the smaller ones around you.
If none of that is possible where you are, you can take your tutoring classes online. It’ll be exciting to know how much people are yearning to learn, willing to pay for that skill you know, but you think it is insignificant.

6. Becoming a Clothes Vendor
Students are fashion-driven and would try their best to look the best all the time. You can go into buying clothes in bulk and become a retailer selling clothes at discounted prices so most students can afford them.

7. Photocopy & Printing Business
Photocopying/printing is the most popular business you see most people(students and non-students) do on campus today because of its hot demand in various Nigerian universities.
It is also very easy to start and gives you the privilege to choose your work hours. Photocopy and printing business can be started with very low capital, some gadgets(printer and laptop) and a small generator.
If you intend to go into the business while in school, you don’t need to get a shop for a start. You can just squat anywhere with huge traffic on campus and do your stuff.
You can also employ someone to do it for you(if you own a laptop and a printer) and you both can share the proceeds according to the agreement made when starting the partnership.

8. Blogging
Blogging is one of the best online jobs for undergraduate students in Nigeria.
If you can write great content (like the blog post you’re reading now) and manage a weblog successfully then you should be making some amount of money as your blog progresses.

As a computer programmer at the university, you can choose to make money in so many ways as this skill is a very rare skill amongst Nigerian students.

Doing assignments and final year projects for computer science students
Tutorials(online and offline)
Physical jobs for clients e.t.c.

10. Sell Past Question & Other Useful Booklets
This business is very popular too. To make money here all you need to do is to write and publish a booklet(usually tutorial booklets/handouts) and distribute them to various handout dealers in your school to sell for you.
You can also gather other past questions in various subjects and sell them to students through these dealers.
Past Questions/Handout business is for those students who have mastered a particular subject and also have the necessary experience needed to publish a handout so other students can learn from it when they buy.

11. Hairstyling
This type of business is a very popular one for those students who have the skills. Barbing/hairdressing business is also a very lucrative one for both female and male students respectively.
Hairdressing is very popular among female students at the university. If you’re skilled and know how to do various hairstyles for students in school you’ll be making some amount of money as almost every female student at the university make their hair at intervals.

12. Classified Ads Websites

Romance / 4 Things Every Man Wants In A Woman by Nairabird(m): 7:48pm On Mar 02, 2019
To women, men come off as complicated and mysterious. Men and women can never understand each other up to 100%. So, when it comes to dating a man how do you what he’s looking in you? And more importantly, how can women know what men really want in a relationship? Now, of course, every man is different and every person his own set of preference, expectations, and priorities. Some will prefer blondes, others have a long history of dating brunettes, some men prefer curvy over petite others prefer petite women, and some are fine with both body types. Half of the men will be very attracted to women who are loud, chirpy and make the perfect social butterflies while other men will gravitate towards quieter and even shier women.

There’s always that man who will choose a woman who is decisive and headstrong with a leader personality, but then there are men who want a woman who will take a while in decision-making processes and is a little more laid back in the department of impulsiveness. The list of men’s preferences could go on and on. It’s all a matter of personal likes, choices, and favorites. But there’s no denying that generally, there is something that every single man is looking for in the opposite gender.


Your social media and the tv may be plastered with all kinds of posts, advertisements, scenes and entire movies that will make you believe all men ever really give a sh*t about how perky your boobs are and how big your ass is. This is to all the ladies; don’t fall for it. It’s an unrealistic representation of what men desire to have in a woman, and the truth is, men, look for way more than that.

There are things that men are genuinely attracted to, the things they genuinely respect and admire in a woman who they want to be in a relationship with. If you’re a girl who hasn’t had the best of experiences with men lately, you may be wondering how to make it better.

You may be thinking of what to do to just nail t the next time you’re on a date with a man you’re only getting to know and want to impress. Here’s what men are really looking for in the opposite sex:


1. A woman who appreciates them

Men are attracted to women who understand them like none other. They really, really value a woman who appreciates them for who they are and what they do, who gives them real, not made up compliments who thanks them for the real things and not for superficial things like the car they own, their paycheck, or the watch they wear. The like being appreciated for their manners and their civility, for their hard work, and so much more. Men are as starved for appreciation as women, but because they like to be quiet and macho about it, they never say it out loud. They’re looking for someone who loves and understands them. Women, try and appreciate your man for the things he’s getting right in life. Men want women to feel proud of them.


2. A woman who respects them

Great women respect themselves more than anyone else and automatically respect the special man of their lives. They make sure that the man who is with them feels regarded in every manner because it isn’t just about appreciation. Man harbor a massive need to be deeply respected. They want to taken seriously and paid attention to.


3. A woman who isn’t controlling

Most men will be happy to give and to provide for. Men will take their time and do things their way, but if they’re given the needed space and time to get things right, they will do it willingly. But, bossing a man around is one thing that will make them resentful towards you. No one likes to be told what to do at every step of the way. Being controlling and bossing is toxic for a man; it makes him feel like he’s incapable of doing the things he’s supposed to do. It will also make him feel suffocated; he will end up giving up on the idea of a relationship with you.


This doesn’t mean you should let him whatever he wants all the time. A man should listen to you when you voice your opinions and concerns. There’s a fine line between being bossy and merely speaking up. Just make sure you’re not crossing that line.


4. Who helps him be his best self

Men will know it when they are around women who make them feel great about themselves. A woman who treats them in ways that make will make a man’s self-confidence and self-esteem shoot up and improve is what men look for in the opposite sex.

Romance / Re: Confession: 'my House Help Is So Pretty, I Feel Insecure' by Nairabird(m): 2:42pm On Feb 23, 2019
Capensis:
This house-help and husband thing has been happening from the time of Abraham, even the old boy sef married one of the servants. You already know what will happen, even if you send the girl away, they will stay in touch.

What you could do is befriend the girl and treat her nice and make her reveal when the JT makes a move. Disgrace him instantly and send the girl away.

That way, you can play both of them a superb game. Even the man go shame to go and meet the girl when she is gone.

I have fired over 10 househelps last year, when I realize they become beautiful and grow real fast when in an excellent environment with the best treatment they never dreamt of.

Sorry in advance. grin

That's true, but funny. You sacked over 10 HH in a year.
Romance / Confession: 'my House Help Is So Pretty, I Feel Insecure' by Nairabird(m): 2:30pm On Feb 23, 2019
I am 32, happily married with two children. For two months now, we have had a very nice house girl who is very good with the kids and at her work. There is, however, one disturbing situation. Everything about her is just perfect. She is beautiful, has a perfect figure, she is young has nice legs and all those things men die for.

She knows it, I know it and my husband seems to know as much. I think he is attracted to her, having caught him severally staring at her. I had to take her since I work a tight schedule. He speaks highly of her and I cannot even correct her in his presence. From next month, my husband will be working from home. I think this is trouble and I really don't know what to do.

Drop your advice!!!

Romance / 5 Simple Things That Could Save Your Relationship by Nairabird(m): 3:09pm On Feb 21, 2019
There is no specific path that lovers should take to keep the fire in their relationship blazing, but these five simple yet profound things have proven to cement relationships. Take a look, learn, and enjoy!


1. Communication.

Communication is key. It is one of the most important qualities of a healthy relationship. However, not everyone knows how to communicate properly, or even communicate at all. Happy and healthy couples have this game down. They vocalize their love for one another, saying “I love you” often and offering compliments. They also discuss the bad instead of sweeping issues under the rug. In order to move forward and grow, you two need to be able to truly talk about your feelings. No matter how awkward or uncomfortable it feels, it will make for a long-lasting and fulfilling relationship.


2. Respect.

Aretha Franklin sang a whole song about it, so you know it’s got to be important. Respecting your partner comes in many forms. Maintaining a joyful relationship means respecting your partner’s time, heart, character, and trust. However, there are many things people do in relationships that can break down respect, like name-calling, talking negatively about the other to friends or family, and/or threatening to leave the relationship.


3. Appreciation.

Often, we forget to let other people in our lives know that we appreciate them. We think it, but we don't remember to show it. This occurs in our romantic relationships as well. Show your special someone that you love him or her. This could be done with words, cards, flowers, acts of kindness, or more. Remember, a flower a day keeps the fights at bay. Okay, maybe not every day, but you get the point.


4. Quality Time, Not Quantity.

It’s all about quality over quantity. It doesn’t matter how much time you and your partner spend together. The most important part is about the quality of this time. There’s a huge difference between having dinner at a table while talking about your day at work, versus having dinner while sitting on a couch watching the latest episode of The Voice. It’s fine to zone out together and enjoy distractions, but it’s crucial to make sure you two are still engaging and spending quality time together to maintain a deep connection.


5. Time Apart.

Spending time together with your partner is important. But just as important is spending time apart. Being able to do your own things and remain independent is vital. When couples spend too much time together, it can create an unhealthy codependence. Maintaining healthy boundaries and some autonomy will make for a long-lasting partnership.

Romance / 5 Reasons Why Some People Can't Find Love by Nairabird(m): 10:13pm On Feb 19, 2019
Despite the development of social media, loneliness is becoming a sort of pandemic right now. About 50% of adult people have trouble finding a partner.


1.You idealize the relationship.

Everyone has their own idea of the perfect relationship: someone might have been inspired by a romantic movie and someone else might be inspired by a book. But the dream that people have is this: to make these love stories come true.


2. You don’t have self-respect.

Respecting yourself and other people is the base of any relationship, including the romantic kind. Can you really love a person who doesn’t respect themselves? This connection will most likely be based on feelings of guilt and won’t do anything good for either partner.


3.You violate other people’s private space.


There is an opinion that manipulation techniques can help fix a relationship. But nobody likes being manipulated, or even worse, when someone tries to change us.


4.You can’t forgive.


Everyone makes mistakes, and you probably have too. But sometimes, when you make a mistake, you can’t gain the trust back even when you are completely sure this will never happen again. Often, we are too strict when judging other people and not strict enough when evaluating ourselves.

5.You are not ready for a relationship.

We are used to treating love as the ultimate happiness and joy. But sometimes, it’s more important for people to deal with more pressing concerns before building a relationship.

Romance / I Cheated On My Wife With Office Cook And Escorts Part 1: Fiction Series by Nairabird(m): 9:44pm On Feb 19, 2019
I’ve struggled, drifting in and out of sleep for the last three hours. My crotch pricks, screaming to pass urine. It’s for this reason I pull away the white fluffy duvet and swing my legs to the floor, 2.03 a.m. My head still feels light, the shots of whiskey we downed last night before getting on to the love-making is still holding me hostage. She’s dead asleep, quilt covering half-way up to her waist.


I, for some seconds, observe the rising and falling of her breasts which glint with sweat. She is beautiful when asleep, vivacious when awake. After kicking my legs into my black trousers, which were rudely left spread on the white-tiled floor during the ‘sweet violence’, I hunch down and pull the duvet to fully cover her, and then blindly feel my way outside for a leak.


My house, or let me call it the ‘cheating den’, rests in the outskirts of the city. I rented it sub-rosa, as it’s the hideout I use to carry out all my despicable acts that I wouldn’t want stapled on my reputation. A cold, harsh breeze spears through my bones and my teeth rattle against each other as I make my way to a bushy stretch beside the house.


There’s a toilet in the house but damn, I have this habit of letting soil suck in my hot waters (Men, why the Fine Uncle Counting Kites do we leave the toilets at our disposal to piss on walls, bushes and flowers? sigh!). The pulsing wind whistles across my thickly-bearded face as I unzip. A small whisper of a moan escapes through my clattering lips with relief as soon as a jet of urine arcs toward the dry grass beneath, wavering in the wind. And it’s while at it that I shut my eyes and drift deep into thought.


Last night was my birthday night, and the sin sleeping in my bed is my gift. Alright, let me get you up to speed. I’m sure you’ve figured out by now that the woman cozying in my hideaway bed isn’t my wife. She isn’t even my girlfriend. She’s just another one of these girls that I’ve been picking up from the city and messing my floor with their lingerie. How could I? Guilt attempts tightening the back of my throat. I don’t let it. I’m a man after all, and that’s how we are, right?


I’m married to a beautiful wife who is housed somewhere in Kasarani. I’d like to think she’s missing me, but she’s probably heartsick – her capacity for worry diluted by my umpteenth vaguely explained work night disappearance. She’s mother to my two amazing kids; kids whom would loathe me like a running nose if they got to know of my dingy sexcapades. What’s wrong with me? Why do I cheat on a beautiful woman to whom I proclaimed sacred vows in front of a church altar and filled-up pews; altering our statuses from Single to One?


A gust of wind swirls by furiously as I turn around to zip my pants. I can feel it disfigure my face. My thoughts delve deeper as I do the shake, arc my waist backwards and zip up. I shake my head at the thought that I’m a cunning cheat, always with rabbits up my sleeve whenever Sly, my wife, doubts me. About 11 hours ago, I made the call to cancel on the birthday plans she had painfully put together for me – for us. It went something like this;


“Hey babe, I’m bothered that I have to break your heart. I know you wanted to surprise me but…”


“Oh darling, please don’t tell me you’re not coming home tonight. It’s your birthday and I went through the trouble to set a little surprise for you.”

I draw a deep breath, inaudibly. My index finger is instinctively drawn to massaging the bridge of my nose, as it does when I’m consumed with guilt.

“Sweetheart, I swear I’ll make it up to you. See, the brothers we’ve been pleading to partner with us, the famous damn rich brothers – I’ve told you about them, right?”

“No, not rea—” she attempts to mutter, but I drown her out.

“Well, they’ve finally agreed to meet us. Tomorrow morning, 8 a.m. on the nose, in Mombasa. A memo just popped up. CEO wants our asses travelling tonight. Sorry babe…”

A tense silence settles in.

“Still there, babe?”

“Yes,” Sly comes back. Her descending voice is now bumpy from the lump in her throat. “It’s okay, I understand. The kids and I will wait for another day. Happy birthday.” That last part comes out in a faint whisper.

“Thanks hun, I love you.”

She utters some indistinct words and then a sudden click ends our call.

Standing like a forgotten outcast in the middle of a cold, open savannah, it amazes me that I feel no remorse, not even a hint of it. I love my wife. At least that’s what I say to myself, and to Sly. My bowel is relieved now, but my mind is not. I just can’t seem to shake the questions which consume me lately. Why do I still cheat? What even is love? Can a man love but still hurt the one he claims to love? What has become of this world? Are there men out there who love their wives but still cheat? Or am I the only cigarette in a chocolate box?


I stub my toe on a table leg as I mindlessly walk back into the room. I want to scream in pain, badly, but I catch myself before piercing the serenity of the still night, or jolting from sleep the sweet little sin in my bed.

“Ouuuch! Shiiit.” I hop onto the bed with muffled cries.

Tonight, and many other nights that have come and gone, I’ve been the cigarette in a chocolate box.

Wait for the part two or read it HERE

Romance / Ask These Questions To Know If The Person You're Dating Is 'A Marriage Material’ by Nairabird(m): 9:30pm On Feb 19, 2019
1. What makes you love me?

Love can’t be universally defined. It makes everyone feel special – in their own way. When you’re in love, everything is better. You’re in a natural state of happiness almost all the time. Every relationship teaches you to love unlike before. Your Romeo or Juliet should be able to answer exactly why they love you so much.



2. Why do you want to spend eternity with me?

Eternity is a really, really, really long time.

It’s thousands of hours together, countless meals, millions of conversations, and all of them won’t be perfect. Your soul mate should want to take the love journey with you. They should be able to explain why they want to spend the rest of their life with you, for a reason other than “because I love you”.

Eternity is thousands of hours together, countless meals, millions of conversations, and all of them won’t be perfect …



3. How will you keep our spark alive and happy?

Relationships require effort, effort, and then a little more effort.

The spark can be really strong, other times it can waiver, and sometimes it can go on a hiatus. It’s all part of the ride. Keeping the magic from fading can often be a challenging task. You need to feel assured that your true love will do whatever it takes to keep your passion alive and growing.



4. How will we get through the rough patches?

When life is good, it’s really good. When things are bad, well, that’s a different story.

Bad times are how relationships get off track. When curve balls are thrown at you, your love for each other is tested. When life gets tough, that’s when you really need your partner. How will your honey stick by your side when things are super sucky? Will they be a good listener? Will he or she provide advice? Will you emotionally support each other? Are you prepared to work through the tough times?

These are all questions the person you want to marry must be able to answer very, very well!



5. How will you prioritise me and us?

Life can get in the way of love.

Happy, loving, healthy marriages stay wonderful because both people choose to put effort into each other. When children, stress, work, and minutia weigh down on you, you need a ride or die partner.

You should ensure that your sweetheart is going to put time into you and your relationship – regardless of what else is going on. Your relationship should be an escape from the outside world. Your loved one should have a solid answer for how he or she is going to prioritise the two of you.

Happy, loving, healthy marriages stay wonderful because both people choose to put effort into each other …



6. Will you be an active parent?

Parenting is hard.

I don’t have a newborn, but I can surely tell you from a lot of second-hand experience that they’re hard work. They take patience and a little bit of perseverance. You have to make sure your partner is going to be a good parent. Is your nearest and dearest okay with sharing the parenting responsibility? Will your partner be a positive influence in the life of your child?

Confirm that the love of your life is going to be an active parent so you won’t be the only sleep deprived one in the relationship.



7. Will you show me how much you love me?

Actions speak louder than words.

You can say something 100 times, but it’s what you do that really counts. Both women and men want to be reassured that they’re loved a whole lot.

How will you show your beloved that you’re madly in love with him or her?



8. Will you woo me?

Once you’re happy in a relationship, it’s easy to accidentally say sayonara to the wooing and romance. You get into a routine and forget to court each other.

Pardon my French, but you want to make sure your partner is going to continue to surprise the heck out of you.

How will your partner give you butterflies and make you feel extra special?

Your relationship should be an escape from the outside world …



9. Will you promise to communicate?

Not everyone is an excellent communicator. Opening up and sharing your feelings isn’t natural for everyone. Being vulnerable is easier for some than others. It’s imperative to make sure your better half lets you into every aspect of their life and shares everything with you. Will they promise to always talk to you?

There’s no greater joy than being in love. Love shakes you to your core. Make your love last forever.

Health / Startup Plans To Send Pregnant Woman Into Space To Give Birth by Nairabird(m): 6:11pm On Feb 18, 2019
Netherlands-based startup SpaceLife Origin wants to send a pregnant woman 250 miles above the Earth to give birth to the first extraterrestrial baby in history, in the name of science.

Should our planet ever become unable to sustain human life, our species' only hope would be to leave and settle elsewhere, be it a haven floating through space or another planet.


But in order for this exodus to be a success, we first have to learn how to reproduce in space, and the founders of SpaceLife Origin want to get the ball rolling by sending a pregnant woman into space and having her give birth in zero gravity conditions.

It sounds like a crazy idea, especially since humanity is a long way from becoming a spacefaring species, but SpaceLife Origin believes that our long-term survival depends on it.

According to Egbert Edelbroek, one of the executives of the Dutch startup, learning how to give birth in space is an insurance policy for the human race.


Even if we ever discover or build an inhabitable place away from Earth, we must first uncover the secrets of space birth if we stand any chance of survival.

To do that, SpaceLife Origin plans to organize a series of pioneering experiments over the next five years, with the most important one – an actual human birth in space – scheduled for 2024.

Edelbroek claims that he has already met with several spaceflight companies willing to transport the team 250 miles above the Earth, and with wealthy people willing to finance the experiment.

He has also had discussions with women willing to become the first to give birth in space. However, even if SpaceLife Origin manages to find a volunteer, a commercial rocket and the money necessary to fund the whole thing, the mission is still bound to be a logistical disaster.

Getting the pregnant woman into space just before she’s ready to deliver the baby sounds difficult enough, but it’s the safety of the baby and the childbirth itself that experts are worried about.

Astronauts usually experience three times the force of gravity during a rocket’s ascent to orbit, and in case of botched launches even triple that much, and no one knows how that will affect the fetus or the mother.

Although we've never had a human birth in space before, we do have some experiments conducted on rats, fish, lizards and invertebrates.


In the 1990s, rats gave birth on a U.S. space shuttle mission, and every pup was born with an underdeveloped vestibular system, the inner-ear structure that allows mammals to balance and orient themselves.

They recovered their sense of balance shortly after, but the scientists concluded that infants need gravity.

The absence of gravity would pose serious problems, like the lack of assistance when the mother pushes the baby out, the difficulty of administering a pain-numbing epidural with the patient flowing through space, or bodily fluids floating through the shuttle as blobs.

Assuming that somehow everything goes right and the "trained, world-class medical team" accompanying the pregnant woman on her historical journey delivers the baby safely, there’s still the descent back to Earth to consider.

These days, that means surviving a bone-rattling free fall through the atmosphere, followed by a parachute landing in some desert, not exactly the kind of experience a newborn and its mother should go through.

And once the baby is safely back on Earth, what kind of birth certificate do you issue someone who was born in space?

SpaceLife Origin acknowledges that its plan still has many unknowns, but that's the main reason for this pioneering mission, to find answers. Plus, some of the people involved in the project believe that if the company doesn't do it, someone else will.

“I think at some point this will happen anyway, so we better do it in a very open and transparent manner. If it’s somebody working on his own, in isolation, not in contact with the rest of the world, you may discover that something happens and you can’t reverse it,” Gerrit-Jan Zwenne, one of SpaceLife Origin's advisers, told The Atlantic.
