You hardly see Nigerians teaching coding or talking about programming related stuff on on social media, especially on Youtube. This is because this is actually a legit way to be a successful person and it involves a lot of hard work, determination and consistence.

Nigerians only like to propagate get rich schemes and fraudulent stuff like plagiarizing books to post on Amazon or some rubbish Ponzi scheme. The common thread that links all these is that they don't involve much work and all you have to do is just do the little, then sit and wait for money to start pouring into your account. I admit there are a tiny minority of people who make money from these, but it's usually for a short period of time until it crashes or they get banned from Amazon, or get arrested, but the majority of people don't get shit, rather they jump from one get rich scheme to the other until they realize they've wasted their time.

Programming will never be saturated with competent programmers especially in this country because majority of people don't have the discipline and delligence to actually become competent programmers.

For the past month I've not been on social media. I deleted my Twitter, Facebook Tiktok, Instagram and vowed to never check status on WhatsApp because that's a very huge distraction. I only use Nairaland and Reddit, particularly for programming related information. I deleted every movie from my laptop and haven't watched TV for weeks.

How many people can do this? How many people can sit at a desk staring at a computer screen for 12+ hours everyday?

Nigerians are very lazy and are addicted to quick gratification and this works in the favor of programmers who are serious, because it reduces the competitiveness of the job market.

What made you conclude that Nigerians aren't already doing that

Data is too expensive and as such can never be encouraged for Nigerians.

Secondly, Nigeria is not a knowledge based economy. We like ponzi and get rich quick schemes...

Op you're very wrong on this.
I'm a medical student and a senior developer. I won't boost about my capabilities, I've work with bending spoon ( a popular coding company in Milan, Italy), I'm a Nigerian so please don't say Nigerians are lazy again!

Spending 12+ hrs a day without good income is a waste. Are you learning or you're working for a company? Myself I barely sleep 3-4hrs a day, so do your calculations you'll see in 24hrs what I invest the time on. Medical and coding!
Can you combine medical school with programming? It's like sucide, so don't ever mention Nigerians are lazy.
For me i do it because first, "passion" in medical field, and second, because of my "needs". Medical school won't give me the money I want in life, infact medical student are one of the most poorest people in the world because they invest all of their time studying unending medical courses while digital guys are cashing out on daily basis.

Programming and anything tech is like drug,oil and blood money. It doesn't have limit. Right now I'm doing project for masters degree student who came to me for assistance and willing to pay what I demand.
In fact, in the whole of Africa, Nigerians are the most hardworking people, reason they do very well once they step out of the country. America, Europe, Asia and other African countries employ more Nigerians than any other black country. You hardly see a professor from South Africa, Cameroon, Egypt or Kenya teaching in foreign countries. You also hardly see their doctors In foreign countries. But check well, any institutions or hospital abroad you see a black lecturer and a doctor, it's likely he/she is a Nigerian.

Despite restrictions etc, till-date USA,UK, South Africa, Europe.... are still employing Nigerians and no limit. The same is in business, Nigerians excel. Reason the xenophobic in SA because Nigerians once they see opportunities dig in and they invite their brothers to join them. This from experience differentiate us from other African countries who don't love their brothers outside the continent . But if a Nigerian see a follow Nigerian abroad, brother what's up ... they'll identify, before you know connection and both of them are into same job. If you quote me wrong, check in any company outside, you'll see not 1 Nigerian but many of them. So OP Mr programmer, Nigerians are not lazy it's the government who made people to look as if they're lazy. Nigeria is rising. Here in Canada they're many.

Meanwhile any one who want to learn coding can contact me, or download my work online. Follow me on Facebook "uconnect ict", Instagram "@officialuconnect" .

If I call a rich man a poor man, he won't take me seriously because he knows he isn't poor. He will simply smile and ignore. Same applies to calling you a thirsty guy.

Besides, 4 out of every 5 guys I meet are thirsty, so it's not wrong to assume you to be one.

OP there's no limit to the number of times you will be blessed for this masterful observation some of us old folks have always talked about. Even the African Americans suffer exactly what you just said. You see the Blackman does everything possible to avoid deep contemplation hence the resort to fanfare, jolly etc. Even in America you hardly find African Americans in tech, all they blab about is race issues, entertainment, this, that, nothing concrete, and the white people keep looking at them. There's this very sensible black girl called Candace Owens who has railed and railed about these issues but the black folks can't even tolerate her.
My brother just do your stuff and forget about the black society is full of crap. There's no country that made it to advanced economy based on entertainment export, it is only 1 thing and that is tech. 200 Davidos can never have the impact of one Paystack, one Chinedu Echeruo etc. I'm tired of black people

Take a look at the screenshots if nigerians are so hardworking like you claim, how come Nigerians have more percentage of users which scored 0 in hackerrank than even indians, philipines, egypt, south africa and vietman??

You hardly see Nigerians teaching coding or talking about programming related stuff on on social media, especially on Youtube. This is because this is actually a legit way to be a successful person and it involves a lot of hard work, determination and consistence.

Nigerians only like to propagate get rich schemes and fraudulent stuff like plagiarizing books to post on Amazon or some rubbish Ponzi scheme. The common thread that links all these is that they don't involve much work and all you have to do is just do the little, then sit and wait for money to start pouring into your account. I admit there are a tiny minority of people who make money from these, but it's usually for a short period of time until it crashes or they get banned from Amazon, or get arrested, but the majority of people don't get shit, rather they jump from one get rich scheme to the other until they realize they've wasted their time.

Programming will never be saturated with competent programmers especially in this country because majority of people don't have the discipline and delligence to actually become competent programmers.
For the past month I've not been on social media. I deleted my Twitter, Facebook Tiktok, Instagram and vowed to never check status on WhatsApp because that's a very huge distraction. I only use Nairaland and Reddit, particularly for programming related information. I deleted every movie from my laptop and haven't watched TV for weeks.

How many people can do this? How many people can sit at a desk staring at a computer screen for 12+ hours everyday?

Nigerians are very lazy and are addicted to quick gratification and this works in the favor of programmers who are serious, because it reduces the competitiveness of the job market.

you are right and wrong in some way, there are programmers in Nigeria but you hardly see them posting stuffs on social media because we don't value it here, those stuffs don't go viral like people that are into skit, I have a technology Chanel for more than 6 months after paid ads I was unable to get up to a thousand followers but when I switched to another niche boom, it rock. the bottom line is that people don't value programmers. personally I love teaching people the little I know but before you know it they'll be telling you that it's too complex or too boring.
You no lie my brother some will even say you're just wasting your time learning all these things since it didn't bring anything for you as at now
