Whether in London Or Nigeria,you are doing something and the Only difference is the Foreign Currencies.
I encouraged you to humble and create a Special taste, especially on your Jollof,the Chicken and make a good Brand.

Makes sense. Thinking out of the box does not necessarily imply producing a car that flies in the air. Simple initiatives like these can make a huge difference.

The restaurant that I buy local food from in Manchester sells a plate of swallow for 15 pounds. And the restaurant is always full to capacity

Not everyone has this luck. To set up a food vendor on the streets of the UK is no walk in the park. If it was so other Nigerians, especially our ibo and Benin brothers, would have done it a long time ago.

Then again, food business is not for everybody.
Everybody can eat, but not everyone can cook well.
If it's not in you, it's simply not in you.

These guys are doing excellently well in their areas of endeavor and they’ve already carved a strong niche with their cuisine and delicacy. Any person visiting the UK should check them out and you will get the best of Jollof outside Naija shore. That Azeez guy is a genius and multi talented.

Neil Gaiman in Coraline, underscores the deeper purpose of fairy tales beyond simple entertainment. It suggests that the value of these stories lies not in their fantastical elements—the existence of dragons or other mythical beings—but in the lessons they impart about courage, resilience, and hope.
The “dragons” in the quote symbolize the challenges, fears, or adversities we face in life. Fairy tales, through their narratives of heroes overcoming overwhelming odds, remind us that even the most daunting obstacles can be conquered. They inspire us to confront our own struggles with bravery and determination, offering a framework for imagining triumph over difficulties.

Wealth is all about providing solutions to hidden problems around us.
But how to identify the problem is the major task for me.
I understand you perfectly.

Identifying problems requires rigorous thinking


Avoid watching movies....tbh...they re unrealistic....too much of it kills the brain

Start listening to good and cool music..they help you relax
Start dreaming big...
Start telling people what you want to do....it's not bragging...it's help you stay glued to your dream....it works...your intention is what matters




Think think and think

Read positive meaning to everything around you... observing the environment, paying attention to people around ...

Also learn to pray ABT GOD opening your brain and eyes to see a gap you can comfortably fill without stress


The problems are there....but you need to THINK and THINK...it will click one day...could happen in the midnight sef...U could wake up to an idea...

When I was in this phase....omoo..

I go just dey think....dey probe myself wetin I fit dohuh...what can I do....omoo...still doing that tho...cos it never ends...

One day ...I was going to work...I saw one man selling bags ...all this fancy bags that look like a designer bag- Gucci....unisex...bag were so fine....I got close to him to ask him aw much....I was still thinking it should not be more than 6k ooo cos I wanted to get ot for myself
As I near am...he said 2500...in my mind I was like whathuh This fine bag...

Omo ...na so I buy am ooo...turn am to business.....

I sold more than 10 of those bags to my colleagues at work...for 5k

Now...that profit was not much...but I was proud of doing something out of the urge of what can I do?.....

Now I have been able to find another gap that I am currently filling... making cool cash from it....with time I will invest more money...and take over...God will help me. Amen

Keep believing bro!


..I am also looking at power issues in the country... people are complaining ABT the utility bills ...

So I have got guys that can do solar work....so I have been looking for marketers that can help sell Solar to interested clients.....

That's what I am currently working on...

God go help us...

Don't give up
