After this pandemic, that's before the year runs out . Can't transfer because I've said lots of stupid things here. Preserving my identity is important. No need to remind me . I won't forget.

Okay sir.May God bless you sir

My present situation is very similar to yours though still believing for a breakthrough. I'm looking for scholarships now, please bro, if you could guide me in this regard I would appreciate. My first degree cgpa would qualify for many scholarships, just looking for opportunities. Thanks

Yaasir:
Search for your niche. The odd is truly stacked against you but you have to be very clear with what you want. It might not be a smooth ride but it is very possible. In my case, I knew my best bet was education but then cost. So, I must go to a Federal Institution. Almighty JAMB almost truncated that ambition before I "borrow sense". I went to polytechnic first before coming back to Unilag. I told myself from day one that I had no parent to look for a job for me. Therefore, I must finish among the very best in my class; with distinct abilities. I actually achieved that and got my job offer (banks; got many) before leaving Unilag. Then come the new face of the struggle; surviving the corporate world. I worked with 4 banks withing 7years and another FMCG. I rarely lack a job but the satisfaction was not there. Then, I had to rely on my talent again for a new beginning. I decided to travel out of the country, but how? Canada? My best choice but quite expensive. Then, I realized I could look for scholarships for my education as the shortest route to whatever location. I started the journey on September 2, 2017, when I sent over 25 emails to lecturers in Australia. It was a very demotivating and difficult process (rejection rate) before God finally gave me that lone voice from the least expected of source. I read Accounting but the person interested in me was an Environmental Scientist (UNISA)! That was when the process started having meaning. To cut the long story short, I did not win the scholarship to UNISA butttttttttttt I won 3 other scholarships - Holland, Austria/Hungary, and Qatar. I eventually settled for Austria/Hungary. On September 2, 2019 (exactly 2 years after) I stepped into my dream in style. While I can't claim to be rich as of today, I am enjoying the very best life has to offer- traveling to countries I never thought of, fantastic accommodation and access to training opportunities.
In essence, concentrate on your talent and never listened to Naysayers. You will meet many of them along your path to success.

After this pandemic, that's before the year runs out . Can't transfer because I've said lots of stupid things here. Preserving my identity is important. No need to remind me . I won't forget.

After I saw how my dad suffered to raise the two of us I and my sibling till the company he was working with went down. We started living from one aunt house to uncles houses. I have been thrown out on four occasions, accused of stealing on many occasions, starved by family, disowned by my own mother who is in the abroad sending monies to different people in Nigeria and disregarding her son because I looked like my father. At 21 I moved to ibadan, stayed with a friend, dumped by my gf, Hustled to get my cert, did my Nysc, hustled more, bought a land at ibadan, bought my first car, bought another car, moved down to Lagos, rented a apartment.

Now I have a unisex salon, a boutique, a car listed on Bolt, and Presently working on roofing my project.

It’s not been easy. Not all women are mothers.

Boss please drop your contact. I need you to put me through

Things done change

I secretly applied to be a driver 3 and half years ago unsuccessfully.i had lost my initial investment but left with an uncompleted building but today, I own a lot of top-notch properties, cars and businesses when i made a bold call to my own angel.. A Chairman/CEO of a Financial institution whom I knew in the past.

can I make you my own Angel ......I've got business prospects that could favour us both I've never asked for help online or to anyone faceless but I believe that I could share with you my dreams and you'd be interested.....The Agriculture sector is where I wanna base my tent on it's very lucrative and profiting; I have met people, done researches even know how to build some machines that could aid some by-products production...I only lack capital to kickoff my dreams.

my dream is to have farmlands all over Nigeria so that when there's more to eat there would be no hunger.....I cannot explain all with text but if you are interested here's my line 081___7021___9620

I know by this time next year I'd have gone far in it .... God assures me that

Following

I've not made it, am still working hard and praying hard


i invested #400,000 i saved last year in popcorn and plantain chips but no show. no gain in the popcorn while plantains were too dear to buy


i was depressed and battered, what will i do ?


i picked my roller again because i can paint houses, even working on 25th December.
qnd the boss decided to cease my remaining #9,000 payment and abandon me in the site
but still not discouraged

All i know is that I'll never give up, if there's life there's hope

My father admonished me at the age of 10 when I was in primary 4 due to poverty to start carrying load for people in the market with basket during the weekend as I was too young to push wheelbarrow. He had to wake me up before 6am to leave house and I have to trek passing through village streams to locate the city market before 8am when market resumes. From the money made I have to save in piggy bank so I can buy books for my elementary education. My father made me believe then that men does not rub cream. Time reached and I had different mindset and I had to start rubbing red palm oil as my cream since I can't think of buying cream. Dust & red small ants always glue to my body by then and I never knew why. At the age of 13, I passed common entrance and commenced secondary education in a community boys secondary school in a far away village. During school visits while other parents visits with assorted kinds of provisions my mother will trek from my village with garri & palm kernels to visit me in school. I worked as labourer in building sites carrying blocks while sleeping in hospital where my father died years back since I don't have any home to return to except my far away village. Any money my mother dashes me I will trek to nearby village market to buy rice, oil and salt and keep in my dormitory locker. In the evening hours sometimes I will sneak into bush in search of utu (special rare fruits in IBO land for monkeys but edible to humans) I will pluck, eat & eat to my satisfaction before returning back to dormitory. I cook my palm oil rice inside the bush with empty powder milk container found in school dust bins as pot with dry woods and carrying water along in bread water proof. I always use dry sand to rub on my injuries whenever I get wound on my foot believing it is my affordable medication and it heals me. I trek bare footed into nearby village visiting family believed to relates to my family in one way or the other in search of food. At age 16, I was admitted into Government Technical College where I stayed only one year and ran out of school to the village due to hunger and no school fees. My mother gave me her last money to travel to city to look for work since she cannot afford giving me school fees. Through paid agents I secured job in a hotel and worked as cleaner, room boy eating remaining foods from guests, assistant bar boy & later became kitchen assistant just in less than 6 months. I returned back to school when I have saved some money to buy my books and not even school fees. My newly married senior sister (first daughter) staying in Lagos through her husband picked me up and since then my life never the same. Now working many years since then in oil industry. Married with kids, Have multiple visa to USA for trainings, Visited NASA, Have cars, houses. My children now in Universities and by God's grace am healthy and still working at consultancy level in a multinational company. While thanking God & supporting mankind. My pain now is that my father. That MY FATHER never lived to see me now & his grown grand children today. My mother now is very aged & living with me presently, while that my senior sister is also aged and now visits. I am in my early 50s presently & this is my true story & testimony of my life.

My aged mother died on January 21, 2023 and buried on April 15, 2023 at the age of 89years.
May her gentle soul keep resting in peace.

Thank you so much Mama.

Goodafternoon.

Are you a developer?

I want you to tell me the meaning of these below please.

Front end?

Back end?

Full stack?

Mobile app?

I won't call my family a poor family and neither will I call it a rich family, we were just there, my father tried his best in providing for us and seeing us through school and my mom, diamond mother, the best mother on earth did more than what I can explain in words to ensure I and my siblings succeeded in life. I can hardly remember my mother eating breakfast while growing up. I even thought it is normal for a mother not to eat breakfast but didn't know she was only trying to preserve the meals for it to reach us

She prayed, worked hard, starved, did all manner of businesses to support the family's income, and she never joked with men of God. Anything men of God, be it our own church or any church, she just loved sowing in the life of men of God and this I strongly believe paved way for me and my siblings.


We did farming, we did hawking, I and my siblings with the leadership of my mother did virtually everything human can do to survive. I just can't list them here.

Also I was homeless at a point in Lagos. I did a very undignified job after NYSC just to pull through.

But today, my family is like the pillar of our LGA you cannot ignore in any decision making

Now back to the story.

Personally, I suffered a lot. Due to the fact that my dad was a federal civil servant and with the nature of his role, we moved from one state to another, even to remote villages, making me change school and friends like wrapper, and this also affected me emotionally and in many other ways.

Because of my number in the family, I was still in secondary school when my father retired so things turned so soar that I did so many things to survive. I helped my mother in all manner of businesses she did, of course she didn't have a defined business, she just ventured into any trending moving business at the time so this affected me academically, but thank God for his natural gift of intelligence which made it easy for me to grasp anything I read or glance my eyes on.


My elderly siblings were fortunate and made it big which helped relief the burden on my parents for a while before my elder bro married a bad woman who then succeeded in turning him away from the family and he stopped helping us and my parents were retired at this time.


With time some other siblings picked up and we forgot him.

After school and NYSC, I found it difficult to secure a good paying job which also inspired my in born desire to own a business of my own. So when I finally secured a job, I didn't rely on the job, I started a business by the side, an online business.

My advice to young Nigerian youths reading, please don't neglect the opportunities internet offers. I can boldly say that internet made me who I am today. Internet liberated me. God bless my elder brother that introduced internet and computer appreciation to me at early age.


I am forever indebted to him till I die.

I built my own very successful company through the internet. My company has taken me places that my degree and academic prowess could not take me. And this company I built and developed it from the internet and today it is growing steadily and employing people which makes me so proud in life that I can now employ people and pay them, God I bless you everyday!




To all the ladies reading, stop underrating your younger brother in-laws, stop maltreating them, most of them will end up richer than that your husband you feel is Aliko Dangote today. Help your in-laws, stop being a bad and wicked woman. Being good does not cost much. Stop looking down on any guy now, future is very Pregnant oh!!

My last advice again to youths, please take internet seriously. Stop scam, stop internet scam, it pays for the mean time but it can never give you a sustainable income and success.


Find a major societal problem today and find a way to use the internet solve that problem and be committed to it, don't give up, continue doing it and you will testify with time.

Internet is a major key to success of youths from poor family background all over the world. Government cannot change your life, internet will if you use it judiciously.

Learn to programme, learn to code, learn web designing while in school and be dedicated to it.


Learn JavaScript that programming language is amazing.


I am not rich yet but I am seeing light and I give all the glory to God.

Above all help others. Help others! Help people around you. Help your friends they are very vital oh, help them!! Keep good and quality friends very important to your growth more than your relatives!

Be honest in your dealings and build integrity so people can trust you with their money and business.

I wish you all the best.

Goodafternoon.

Are you a developer?

I want you to tell me the meaning of these below please.

Front end?

Back end?

Full stack?

Mobile app?

Those are common things in app development.


Front end is the part of an app that users see like in bank apps.....that part from where you can sign up, login, change password, etc.


Backend is the server or admin part from where the app is managed.....its the backend that manages what happens on the front end.


Full stack is the end to end process taken to build both front-end and back-end of a web application.


Mobile App.....as the name indicates is an application developed or designed to run only on mobile applications and devices while web app runs on web browser and does not require you to do any installation but mobile app will require you to install the app before you can run it.

I really appreciate. God bless you.

But are there other departments apart from front end, back end, full stack, mobile app?

Sorry for disturbing you. I just want to understand something.

Yes they are then embedded in the aforementioned. UI/UX which is about frontend design, etc, etc

My last questions please.
You mentioned UI/UX. That means a little of graphic design is included in programming?

What are the languages required to learn back-end?

And apart from online courses, which physical places can one go so as to learn back-end?

These are my last questions.

UI/UX is not really about graphic design though UI may mirror graphic design because you need to know how to make the user interface appealing and user friendly. UX does more with logic, data driven and understanding user need which leads to user research, wireframing and making prototypes. Though a good graphic design background helps in UI design, it's not necessarily compulsory.


As for backend, it's about programming, coding and script writing.


You will need to learn some programming languages depending on your interest, ability and focus. Python, Java script, PHP, Ruby, etc.

Thank you so so so so so so so much.

You are the best.
