ogaemma: Kiss the truth. They are the best internet service provider in Nigeria. I first subscribe with them in 2009, when I operated a cyber cafe and business center in Port Harcourt, that time their Port Harcourt office was a long Aba road near Hotel Presidential. That was long before I traveled out. Congratulations 👏
Not bad. This'll help cut foreign currency leaving the shores of Nigeria. Local internet traffic emanating within the country wont have to be rerouted through foreign exchange points.
I remember when the idea of local internet exchange points was introduced almost a decade back.
My early networking days, i use to enjoy harvesting ASN from internet exchange poonts to build a footprint of ISPs in Nigeria just for the fun of it.
JoeyNaza: FBI has taken a tough stance on these sextortion scams. In fact, they sent a delegate team that is currently in Lagos, Nigeria to collaborate with local law enforcement on the investigations and arrests.
ElevationD: It is so sad that this daily killing by Fulani herdsmen has become an occupation. There are too many questions to ask:
1. How are they easily able to evade security and kill such large amounts of people on daily basis?
2. Are security agents are not complicit in it?
3. How do they easily get away after such crimes?
4. Why would government not insist on ranching for herdsmen instead grazing?
5. Why must the rest of the country suffer so much losses to a very small percentage of Fulanis?
6. Why must citizens of these communities not be permitted to arm themselves with guns for protection?
7. Why must Fulani herdsmen move away from areas where there are grasses, into people’s farms to feed their cows with cassava, yams and corn?
8. If herdsmen took advantage of Buhari’s Presidency, should they continue with this wickedness under Tinubu’s wickedness?
9. If Buba Marwa alone, as the governor, could get herdsmen off the streets of Lagos in 1996, how come they have been allowed to invade the whole nation since 2015 and no President has stopped them?
lexy2014: . How come EFCC had to wait until they successfully scammed their victims before taking action?
Government agencies go as far as paying for jingles on tv and radio for nigerians not to invest in such high profit paying schemes but most will rather take the risks than heed the plea.
bixton: If the community does not resort to self help and promptly defend their ancestral land and themselves, I dont think any administration is truly willing to assist.
The plan of these fulani hersers onvaders is to gradually decimate the nimbers of local indigenes and ultimately replace them with their own from across the sahel. They're manipulating the nigerian security architecture to carry out these acts. They've tried auch in taraba and it didn't help all thanks to rtd general danjuma
Mynd44: I am. 95% sure the animals belong to a Benin person and he employed herders to watch over them
I've witness this before in benin along airport road at same hour. They move from as far as Oko road down to Oluku by pass. This is a distance of almost 40km or more.
laivwire: Good idea but maybe you should start using some of what you've learned to make money already.
A major problem in career development is chasing money on one hand and chasing passion on the other (for example , doing a job just for money while following your passion as a side hustle). Your progress won't be as fast as you desire because your efforts are divided.
But when you are being paid while working in the field you desire. You don't need to worry about how to eke a living and as you work daily, you're improving the very skills you want to develop.
I.T is about your project portfolio and the closer that portfolio can get to what obtains in the professional industry, the better. Start looking for jobs in your desired field even if it's entry level.
and don't make the mistake of throwing all your cash into the business. Start small.
OP, take this advice. Build your portfolio with as many project exposure. This is what you need to go far in the field.
Never, Never, Never work on isolation. This is a mistake a lot of young IT enthusiasts make.
As for the funds with you. You're young. The economy is in shambles and it's swallowing as many businesses as possible. It's a good thing you already have experience managing a business center. My advice is you dont make it too elaborate from the onset. Start small. You can get a cubical or space in any government establment like VIO, LG office or tertiary institution where you're aure of patronage. Invest in solar energy to cut down management cost. (Start simple)
Lastly, install cctv in your business center to monitor whoever is in charge of the business center when you're away. Some nigerians have no conscience running down other people business.
Also, work on your social life. Reason: Those that suceeded big time in IT, did through people who stood for them not necessarily friends in the field. Never isolate yourself
crownfierce: Rubbish, u posted here. A man that has fought tooth and nail to ensure there is tax reform so we can maximise other revenue potentials. It’s obvious you don’t know Tinubu.. u re just playing opposition blindly
Mention other revenue potential you know for a country that manufactures close to nothing. All the warehouse in Lagos now house fireign goods. A country that cant generate nationwide power for 12hrs straight
