Unfortunately, I've tried that and I realized I was wasting my time.
I need a tutor, a good one at that. Where I'll be taught well with projects and group works

macjireh:
I am a novice to programming... wat programming language will u advice I start with?

tensazangetsu20:
Oh yes that's why I tell people all the time to learn coding. Infact I have told gerrard59 that when God blesses me the only thing I will do for my homeland is opening a very huge IT centre with a ton of computers for my kinsmen to learn programming. Before I became a programmer I was a mechanic o. I was a mechanic and an auto parts trader with my engineering degree. No job anywhere. I went to volunteer at a mechanic workshop and learnt to fix cars. Left there and went back to ladipo. I was struggling day in day out yet no single Kobo. To even see a 100k in a month was like a huge amount after all expenses were done. It was hell. Even with all the skills I had. I knew digital marketing, how to fix cars yet nothing o. it was a very top guy in the Nigerian tech industry that told me to quit everything I was doing and learn coding. It wasn't easy but everyday I thank God I took that man's advise.

Infact the greatest thing that can lift Nigeria out of poverty now is programming but the greatest hindrance is a laptop and laptops aren't getting cheaper. the laptop I used to learn coding I got it for 75k the same laptop is being sold for at least 140k just in the span of a year.

CSTRR:
And for those that say APC and pdp are the same , you are very mad.

PDP is multiple degrees better than APC.

A PDP is sensible enough to know the importance of the tech sector.

Atiku despite how corrupt he is would have been much better for the business climate in Nigeria.

Yes, I said it.

Atiku would have been better for Nigeria than Buhari.

Sheriman:
Everything in Nigeria is becoming worsening. I want to learn 3D Animation but I need a good laptop of 16gig RAM 8GIG Nvidia graphics card worth 500K. No where to get the money nobody to borrow you

TJoshy:
I studied Microbiology in my BSc. I work at an FMCG company as a Quality Assurance. I'm planning now to do a Postgraduate Diploma in Computer Science and thereafter I'll do MSc Computer Science at Unilag during this time I'll be learning hard-core programming, I'm 30. I hope it's a good plan.

Bros trust me once I leave this country I wilk never come back and I will lay a curse on my generations. Anyone who decides to come back to Africa will die immediately he lands in African country. I shall lay the curse naked. Walai and I also tell my children the same thing. Anyday they return to where I have struggled to escape from they will die.

There's really no job in Nigeria I can come for. Maybe before I became a programmer you can say so. But all the money I make from programming it's white men. Infact my present skillset and how good I am now was my boss that took me under his mentorship and taught me so much. He's a white man. I have brought In two young Nigerians both juniors into the same company and he's also all teaching us. The same people were rejected by companies in Nigeria but na oyinbo man still come give them chance. Through his mentorship I have gone to work on projects that are used by billion dollar companies. Billion with a b o. As for political position, you can forget it. I will never ever contest to Be a politician in the zoo. I never even did my nysc after graduation so that disqualifies me and I don't give a Bleep.

There's really nothing Nigeria has given me I can say yes thank God I am a Nigerian. My university education wasn't even in Nigeria. As for working in Nigeria. I have only worked with a Nigerian company for two months and that was it the rest of my work has been with companies based abroad.

Secondary Citizen lol maybe for other professions not for programmers O. You don't know what is going on now. The tech industry is basically an employee's market now. This other countries I am talking about. Their salaries might not be USA level but they are ten times higher than Nigeria. I won't pay rent. Food will be given to me. This was stated explicitly at the interviews I have done so basically my salary will just be a pocket money. You can feel the desperation in their eyes even during interviews.

As for my family I really wish them well. The only thing I will do is build a house in Ghana for my mom and dad to stay in and bring my sister over immediately she graduates but as for Nigeria once I am done that's it. Even if I come to Africa to visit I will go to another African country and then the person who wants to see me will come there.

No problemo we would have more opportunities in the coming months just get good and PM me once you are confident to take a job. Our hiring window is closed now but you need to pass our test.

CapitalBank:
I stopped reading when you mentioned tech fraud...

I am sorry, but you belong to the set of Nigerians who mix ponzi scheme with Crypto just because some ponzi used BTC to receive money. There is a difference between a website telling u pay 20k and recieve 100k. Those are not tech companies please and you should know that,

if you don't know something, ask because you are accusing people wrongly.

ALL THESE GUYS ARE FUNDED THROUGH FOREIGN COMPANIES. The money they use to establish these things are not theirs and the investors have stakes up to 70% in the company.

You are simply ignorant of how the sector works and it shameful tha you do it with so much confidence. get some education please.

Yes, I agree with you...anyone who wants to jakpa should. There is no thinking about it. Just Jakpa. But we can still save Nigeria.

Terrible Plan!!!! Us that PGD money to buy a decent laptop and internet connection then go to freecodecamp to learn web development for free. That's what most people do. All you need is discipline.

philip0906:
That guy you quoted, is a retard. His has gone beyond ignorance.

Rictech:
Tensa abeg, My frontend is OK, although i have not really started hunting for roles, i am learning backend(django) for now. Nevertheless, I need a junior role

Hassanmaye:
Kids abroad trying to come back to Nigeria with Nigeria in their heart, I felt that o, but let me tell you sir, it's because they have never been to Nigeria that's why!!

tensazangetsu20:
It's not automatic o but my company's own hiring window is closed. I put it up on WhatsApp groups I am active in when it was open and two people got in. I don't know where they are from though but they were the only ones who did well in our coding test.

Gerrard59:
In 2000, no one envisaged people would be kidnapped and huge ransoms paid to have them released. Ten years later, kidnappings became rife.

Prior to the late 2000s, no one believed Nigerians will indulge in suicide bombings. Ten years later, suicide bombings became a norm. In 2010, no one ever thought that school children would be kidnapped, raped and some killed or ransoms close to N1BN will be paid for their release. Just more than ten years on, such is rampant.

Currently, aircrafts are being shot down. By 2031, it will become a norm for aircrafts, commercial and military, to be shot down daily.

The Nigeria of today will be a paradise to the Nigeria in the next ten years.

I just saw this on Facebook and remembered the guy o. This person is even in the whole Baba USA

TJoshy:
I did a worthless degree as an undergraduate (Microbiology) and its hunting me why i want something of prospect, at least i know am also in the tech field, career wise

tensazangetsu20:
I also did a worthless degree too marine engineering. What you have been advised here is the best. Use the post graduate money to learn tech skills if change remain you can acquire professional certs like Aws, Magento, Salesforce, servicenow et Al. They are more valuable than any masters from any university in Nigeria.

tensazangetsu20:
Exactly.

biosystech:
It's mostly what many beginners use to learn before switching to Mac and the fact that it is very light too adds to its allure.

Which IT institute did you learn this?
I'm doing one yeye 30k job right now in order for me to save up and enroll in a reputable IT institute to learn coding. Any suggestions?
