Lol.. You claim you won an election (Governorship and 32 HOA seats) in Rivers State, you are stonewalling, intimating and preventing opposition from accessing the CTC of electoral materials from INEC (Umpire) office, a process that should be between the petitioner and the Umpire only. If the winner want to respond to the petition, they also have the right to access the CTC of the electoral materials from same Umpire. Same document will be given to both the petitioner and respondent (winner). So why this needless clash and disturbance of the peace of commuters on Aba Road, PH and peace loving people of Rivers State in general.

Na waooh! This country matter don tire person. Everything is this country is thuggery, intimidation and oppression. Hmm!!

This is exactly what we want going forward. They should even increase it from 25K to 50K per day. Their blocked heads need to learn a bitter lesson the hard way. Please Lagos State Govt. should increase the levy to 50K per day. Let Agbero levy be transferred to passengers as fares, let them pay it. That is what they all voted for. Nobody should damn complain. Agberos, Bus drivers and passengers should enjoy the dividend of their votes and democrazy.

I remember one man promised to solve the Agbero situation in Lagos by proposing to take them off the streets of Lagos.

Ndi ara!! Una never see anything yet.

I thought the APC won this election fair and square (according to them). Why are they still speaking/talking as if we are still in the campaign trail for the presidential election? Why has the attacks on Peter Obi and Labour Party continued unabated? Why are the APC PCC not magnanimous in victory? You won a minority votes out of the total votes cast in the presidential election and you are not worried about what that means for BAT presidency? If I were APC and its PCC, I will tone down the rhetoric and initiate reconciliatory moves towards the opposition sensing the mood of the country and how controversial the presidential election has been so far. APC PCC should realize that campaigns are over and its now time to govern, hence, these abuses and crossfire are unnecessary and should stop forthwith.

In response to the purported US Dollar crash as widely reported/displayed by Google in search engine result page, popular FX rate site www.abokifx.com has just crashed, probably overwhelmed by request from viewers/visitors on the site.

This is becoming very interesting.

Is the US Dollar Crash from 360 to 184naira as widely reported by Google true

Ghen ghen.... AbokiFX site don crash ooh because of purported USD crash.

WOW!! Wahala Dey

zeuss:
Lies......CBN says 306

@zeuss, you can see the information on Google. Its not made up. Google has the data and as far as I know, we all have been relying on Google for basic information such as this one.

According to Google Search Engine Result Page (SERP), one United States Dollar (USD) is currently exchanging for 184Naira barely few hours to the Nigerian Presidential Elections.

I just checked this out myself on Google with the keyword "USD to Naira Today" and can't believe what I saw. This is rather shocking and unbelievable as I smell foul play here.

Can someone please tell me what's going on here>>>>>?

The 21st century as the information/digital age has presented numerous challenges and opportunities for humanity. From widespread industrial revolution to notable advances in information and communication technology, the 21st century is living to its bidding as an era/dispensation of highly skilled workforce. With artificial intelligence and machine learning capabilities sweeping through the length and breadth of the traditional industries and service sectors, new skills/capabilities have continued to emerge to support the revolution as well as replace mundane ways of doing things, which undoubtedly has improved effectiveness and efficiency of business services. By leveraging on capabilities enabled by technology, businesses have continued to drive down overheads across-board with corresponding increase in business performance/bottom-line, service delivery and customer satisfaction.

Despite the sweeping changes occasioned by technological advancement, certain jobs will not be easily replaced/displaced by technology and automation rather, they will continue to be relevant and complementary to the use of technology/automation in business.

Gooduck Guys!!

Nice write up. Online entrepreneurship pays a great deal. I am a living testimony. I will be sharing my story in no time of how I used good content in my chosen Niche to drive sales of my products and traffic to my site - oxleyconsults (www.oxleyconsults.com.ng). Its such an amazing experience. It took several years my people. Started out in April 2012 and tried out a couple of things, learning what works and what doesn't up until 2017 when I started earning real money. My learning curve is quite enduring and interesting as well. It only takes patience, perseverance and consistency. Don't quit even though you earn nothing. Keep working at it. What will happen to you at the end is, you would have learnt what works and what doesn't. Stay in the Niche where you have experience and passion, perfect your writing skills to improve on the content you put out. Develop your skills to the point that you become an authority in your chosen Niche to the point that you can shape opinions on that area. Get handy with your SEO skills. Drive your content up their in search engine rankings. It will take time but do what need to be done and your organic search will grow though it takes times. At the end, you will see that someone somewhere on this earth will need your product (www.oxleyconsults.com.ng/source/). Someone will surely read or download your content, find it useful and is willing to pay your price.

Like I said, I will be sharing my success story soon. Don't forget that e-Commerce is it. It is now the way to go. Having good/quality/sell-able content is one thing and knowing how to monetize your contents and be able to collect payment from your customers/subscribers online via e-Commerce tools and platforms (like PayPal, Stripe, Gumroad, Selz and even Direct bank ACH) is another thing. These are some of the things I will be discussing in my upcoming post. Let's just be on the look out. God bless all OUR Hussle. Amen

Nichesiteseo:
First things first.

I'm not here to sell anything.

I'm just here to provide helpful and actionable content.

There will be no pitches or telling you to visit my site to get more info blah blah...

Everything here will be free!

I'm just here to tell you how a humble boy from Ogun State made his dream come true from his dirty bedroom in his village house, with a laptop, wearing pyjamas all day!

Let's get started...

I was reading some of the topics on the webmaster section here and I realised one big pain point for many.

A disturbing recurring pattern:

Making money online is hard for so many on here.

I was once in this situation a few years back. So I understand the frustrations and feelings of helplessness I have seen from some here.

I decided to start a new topic and provide a blueprint that worked for me to make my first couple of moolahs online.

If you have never made a dime online the simplest and most straightforward way
to do it is by....

Building a niche site!

I believe a niche site is simply the best way for anyone to get their feet wet in making money online.

I must warn you though that it's not easy.

It's simple and straightforward but not easy!

Catch my Drift?

My story

When I built my first niche site, I had no idea what it would turn into.

I had no idea that it was going to change my life...

At the time I was building a site for my local church and trying to rank it for some church related keywords.

After about 3 months of trial and error I got the site ranking for juicy keywords and traffic began spiking for the site.

I got hooked and decided to try what I learned to a personal site!

The plan was to build the site, do some SEO and slap Adsense on it - you know, just test and see what happens.

When the site started taking off and making me some moolah, I knew I had a winning money making model online!

I didn't plan on making this a long term gig, I had just finished uni and this was a side project to supplement my NYSC 'allawee'.

In December 2010 (my first full month of doing this) I put in a lot of work and earned...nothing!

Zero

Nada

Zilch.

After hours and hours of pounding at the keyboard. It was sad.

I kept at it.

March 2012 rolled in and it was the month i made my first dime online!

It was a paltry $3 dollars but I was so happy!

Months after that were even rougher but I believed in the model and kept at it.

By June ending things started clicking and revenue was $200.

September 2012 and I was grossing $500+. And in January 2013 I was well over the $1000 dollars/month mark.

In the end it had all paid off.

I was making more money than the company I was working for at the time. It was insane.

February 2013 I quit my job.

I phoned a friend of mine. He was working for a Big bank at the time.

I told him about what I was doing and why he should leave his job, move into my bedroom and be my partner.

Ending of February, he quit his six figure income job and moved into my bedroom where we worked from.

By the ending of 2013, we were grossing $10,000 a month!

And on and on and on it went!



'But that was before. The space is saturated now and this can't work in 2017', I hear you say.

It still works and I still make money online this way. I have several niche sites I have been running since 2011 still churning money.

I also know numerous people who are currently employing same and similar process to make income from the internet.

Over the coming days, I'm going to give you a detailed step by step guide (super blueprint) of how you can build and SEO a niche site to make $500 (my target income for you) on the internet.

Like I said before, it's simple but not easy.

If you are looking for a get rich quick method without a lot of work this is not for you. This is for people who are willing to put in the work which isn't in anyway difficult.

The guide will be free and packed full of info and actionable content to help you make money online with niche sites.

I won't be leaving anything out! I will be writing this as if I was writing it for my kids.

Tell your friends who know nothing about the internet, SEO or building an Adsense site.

Tell your friends who keep struggling with making an income on the internet!

I need you to spread this guide around. Talk about it.

To be honest, I have kept some of this info to myself for a long time. I'm not too sure what I was scared of. Competition, maybe.

But I don't think I can stand by anymore and watch people continue to be frustrated, flailing and getting scammed trying to make a decent income online.

Now, I want as many people to learn about how to apply SEO and build niche sites because this stuff works!

It is my hope that I put scammers who charge for this sort of info to shame and out of bussiness!

I'm going to be writing out the guide here under this topic and if you follow it and do what it says, you will get a bit of value here.

Build as many niche sites as you can.

Be patient and enjoy it all!

PS. No skill required to follow along so this applies to total newbies! As long as you can do basic things on your PC and online.

Hello Nairalander!

I registered for MSc System Engineering and do not know if anyone can assist me with past questions or related questions to expect on the aptitude test for this programme. I understand that Systems Engineering was suspended for while (over 4 years) and later reopened this session. Please help. email: danny_coms@yahoo.co.uk
