My biggest lesson is NEVER TRUST OR HOPE ON ANY ONE. WORK AS IF YOU ARE NOT EXPECTING HELP FROM ANYWHERE AND THAT YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE THAT CAN HELP YOURSELF.

1. People ain't shit
2. Religious people are the worst people to do business with
3. Never say Never
4. The Government doesn't give a flying fvck about us.. More than 2 months after the lekki saga no one has been arrested. Neither has anything been done about our demands
5. Nigerians are not that smart.
6. God has left Nigeria

7. Only women, children, cats and dogs are loved unconditionally.. A man is only loved under the condition that he provides something.

And last but not the least.

If you are a guy and you don't have money.. No matter how handsome, tall, educated, fresh, eloquent you are, you are a NOBODY.

I learnt 1 to 5 last year, and 7 this year.

Lessons from Lagos riot (SARS protest):

Envisage a straight line along which the world’s nations rest. . The most successful nations are not those whose talented and brilliant citizens pull them up above the line of nations but those whose dumbest nationals pull them less below the line of Nations. In short, the dumb and not the smart determine a nation’s progress.

People who continued #endsars protests after the disbandment of SARS were very very dumb idiots.
Lazy, jobless motherfuckers with no proper source of income. Thugs , hoodlums and prostitutes without vision.

Quote me anywhere.

The summary of it all is that I have learnt to trust and lean on God only daily in my actions. I derailed from Christ, and suffered much for that cos only Him can hive Joy and Peace of Mind.

Precisely the point: smart people build business over years; dumb people pull them down overnight. Since dumb people outnumber the smartest, progress is measured by how the dumbest people go about their lives.

Even women are not loved unconditionally in many, many case study. During my service year, our lgi used to tell us of the bolded and you just hammered on it at again. Thank you.

The protest also showed that the empires of so called Nigerian Billionaires from the Southern Part of the country will go down after their demise because of the emotional and intellectual stupidity of their children to be able to project into the future.
When the protest was prolonged, I wrote here on Nairaland that it was more of a class struggle. A class struggle between traditional and customary socialists(poor people with entitlement mentality) and risk taking, ambitious capitalists ( politicians (Politics is a business in Nigeria ) and every other wealthy person at the top). That's Karl Marx's Communist Manifesto playing out real life in Nigeria.


I really wished DJ Cuppy's father and Davido's father lost at least one valuable company asset each to the hoodlums who burnt and looted people's sweat. I also wished the reform made the IG withdraw Police escorts from their families so that Kidnappers would relate with them well.

I'm barely 21 and I know my generation is very stupid , senseless , idiotic and copy copy generation. A very foolish generation ravaged by herd mentality.

Never trust people's words but actions. People give empty promises. It doesn't matter even if they swear it is gibberish. This has been my lesson and I can never forget it

6. Never try to fight those who are more powerful than you or else they crush you. Never out shine your master as Robert Greene will put it.


I don't agree with no. 6.
You can actually outsmart those who are more powerful than you.
Ask DJ Switch.

Some of Robert Green's points are not applicable in extreme situations and places like Nigeria.
The more you submit to your oppressors, the more you're oppressed. Most times you fight the "powerful" oppressors, then you discover they only remain powerful as long as you remain a coward.

in 2020,

I learnt if you don't have money, you are a slave to the person that has.

whatever food the person wants to eat, that's what you'll eat

if the person is expecting a visitor, you must leave the house and roam about in the street


in 2021, God will make us achieve our Dreams and make money, so that we'll never rely on anyone
Very true.

Rothschild once said" Give me a country's financial control and i do not care who makes the law".

He who has the money has the power.

early In January when my company sacked some of us

though I wasn't sacked

I learned when employers want to enslave u they would say customer is king but they did'nt contact the customer before sacking its employee

so from then i concluded i was a slave and needed to fight for freedom

so i have started my own business though am still working
