HustleAbroad:
I haven’t been contacted after documentation. I was only asking.

larrybam:
Still available

Twonaira1:
Yes it's amazing and fast. I got the free 10gb data as well and it works even without SIM card inside the phone.

You can read more about SIMO here and how to use it.

Many people don't know about this and I'm surprised Tecno is not using it to advertise and market this phone.

1. OSHODI!!!

Even in a broad daylight. My bag was opened on that pedestrian bridge at around 8:00 a.m. I was surprised it could happen at that time despite the fact that i was carrying my bag on one hand and the bridge was not too busy on that day. One funny thing again is that, traders around there will see them trying to open your bag but will not tell you, or shout "THEIF". Instead they laugh about it .NEVER back your BAG in Oshodi

Plz i need your help on this below are the screenshots

You obviously didn't read the post.
If you did, you would have noticed how the write-up was inspired and moreso, the fact that the source of inspiration was duly acknowledged.

Always read before making shameless accusations

scholarsarena:
It's called 'sharing valuable news' and there is no law in nigeria against sharing information as long as the source is referenced.

Obviously, you don't know these because you are just an empty head with big mouth

swiz123:
Inspiring write-up.If only all will read before commenting.



Our educational system makes me wonder if education as a whole is overrated. Being academically brilliant doesn't guarantee that you will be more succesful than a dullard. (our president is a dullard,ffk just an ex minister)

scholarsarena:
This morning, when I was watching Ken Robinson’s “Do school kill creativity?” TED TALK he made a statement that piqued my curiosity. He said,

“Many creative, brilliant, talented people think they are not, because everything they were good at school wasn’t valued or was stigmatized”.

Okay. Imagine this: A classroom filled with students. The teacher after dishing out some mathematical theories and formulas went ahead and gave a test. Some students were talented when it comes to calculation, others were just okay, and some students totally sucked at mathematical calculations. The teacher rate every students work. Some got an A, others B, some D while the rest got a big fat F.

The students who got A’s are applauded for their wonderful performance; they now believe they are very much brilliant than others but those who got an F…Well, they start to feel like they are losers and aren’t good enough.

When I was in Grade 4, my teacher once told me, “You see these stories you keep writing? They won’t get you anywhere if you keep getting poor grades in school”.
You see, I was just seven years old then but that statement alone demoralized me so much that I stopped writing and focused on school work.


There is this quote that I love; I am not sure who actually said it. It says;

“Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will spend its whole life believing that it is stupid”.

You know why right? A fish CANNOT climb. It’s like asking a monkey that is very perfect in climbing trees to go swimming. The monkey will definitely get drowned.

That’s exactly how we humans are. We all have our niche; something we are so good at. But you see, our educational system places much emphasis on academic subjects that our natural gifts are brushed aside and dumped in a waste bin. We are told, “You can never make out a living doing them”, just like my Grade 4 teacher had told me.


In schools, we are being programmed like robots; listen to teachers/lecturers dish out lessons and theories; some even read directly from the textbooks like they are newscasters; they give us notes to copy and then at the end of the day we ought to memorize every damn information in our notes and textbooks, take a test and pour out all we had crammed.

One week later, ask us what we read, we can’t even remember and the cycle goes on and on.
If by chance, you aren’t successful in the test/exam, the school system deems you a failure. You hide your face in shame and conclude that you are a loser.
It’s so sad that in our battle and pursuit for good grades, degrees and certificates, we have lost the true meaning of creativity.

Tests and exams aren’t a yardstick for checking creativity. It goes beyond that. Creativity means thinking out of the box, breaking boundaries and seeing beyond the ordinary.


In schools, we are taught to be scared of making mistakes. There is only one answer and if you are wrong, it’s one of the worst things that can ever happen to you. You don’t even get a chance to question most things you are taught. You just accept them hook, link and sinker. But how can anyone ever come up with something original if the person isn’t prepared to make mistakes?

Don’t get me wrong. I am not trying to take a jab at teachers or school administrators. Truth is, they are doing their best to help us learn. The problem is just the way they go about it.

Perhaps if the same emphasis placed on academic subjects is placed on helping students develop their natural gifts, it will create more opportunities for divergent thinking.

And maybe, we won’t have a bunch of frustrated adults seated in their offices, tired of their jobs and wishing they were brave enough to go after their dreams. Don’t settle in a box.

datoms:
Hello everyone, I send greetings from this part of the country. I have been into programming for the past 4 years and although I might not be a pro or the best but I can say one or two things about programming that you should know about.

Learning to program on your own is one of the challenging things one can ever do (Please am not talking of HTML and CSS as these are not programming languages), but it has been made a step easier with the use of tutorials and bootcamps I'm not talking of incomplete youtube videos).

And over the years, I have spent a lot of money trying in order to get premium tutorials from premium platforms and this have contributed to where I am today (even though I,m still learning and learning never ends). I have seen a lot of people, especially computer science students in our country after 4 - 5 years in higher institutions still find it difficult to write a print statement in any language at all. It pains me in my heart anytime I think about this and I have come out to help those that are serious minded and will want to dive into the world of programming proper.

I might not be able to share some of my knowledge with you one-on-one but I know that with this same tutorials that helped me in your hands, you can as also make some exploitation. I am a full stack web/App developer, a UI and a Graphics designer. So note that I don't know all the languages. I am only limited to my field of specialization.

End of Story, Here Comes the GOOD part

Because of the reasons stated above and more, I have decided to give out these tutorials for free to the first 50 people that will indicate their interest, and also have one-on-one online session and webiners with them to further help them the best way I can in the world of programming.
Like I initially said, I am not an Island of knowledge, therefore, I don't know all the languages. for those who are interested, you can indicate for any of the following languages, libraries, frameworks and environments below:
Note: (HTML and CSS are not programming languages but they are very important, so I will include them)

LANGUAGES
1. HTML and CSS
2. Javascript
3. Php
4. Ruby
5. Python
6. Java
7. SQL
8. C#

Frameworks and Libraries
1. Angular
2. Laravel
3. Codeigniter
4. Node Js
5. Spring
6. Django
7. Bootstrap
8. Jquery
9. Xamarin

Important Notice: Please do not be fooled by anyone. Watching these tutorials alone don't make you a good programmer. You need to get your hands dirty with writing your own code. Do something on your own after going through this tutorials. It's very OK if you make mistakes, so there is nothing to be afraid of. there are many places that you can get help from. First by contacting me, if I don't know it, I will refer you to a million +1 places to be cleared.

Secondly if the language you need is not on the list. I am sorry, I can't help you for now.
First 50 persons only. Drop your email or send your phone number, email and the programming language you want to learn to tokeyson@gmail.com and I will give you a call

This offer lasts for only one week (Weather they are up to 50 or not), after which I will stop attending to emails
Kind regards
