Business / Top 10 Lucrative Businesses In Nigeria by robinwest: 2:58am On Oct 27, 2022
Finding a decent, profitable business in Nigeria may seem difficult, but with little strategy and preparation, you may start a successful company to boost your income or work for yourself full-time.
Perhaps you already have a plan for the business you want to launch. Although you can be enthusiastic about your concept and feel prepared for a new endeavor, you might also be looking for some guidance.
Starting any business can be quite tedious and risky especially if you’re new to it. This article will shed some light on starting a new business and list out 10 profitable businesses you can start in Nigeria.

**How to start a lucrative business**
These options for lucrative businesses in Nigeria include a range of fields and demand various time commitments and initial expenditures. However, you must launch your business before you can start making any money.
To get you started, consider the following three steps:
1. Do your research
Make sure to research any idea before committing to it, whether you decide to use one of the suggestions here or develop your own. To test your business idea and evaluate whether you want to proceed with your business plan, you should do idea validation, a process that combines market and competition research as well as a financial feasibility analysis.
2. Get organized and make it official
You are prepared to write a complete business plan once you have selected a potent business concept. Your business plan will describe the objectives of your organization and how you intend to achieve them. It will also serve as a guide for you (and possible investors) to follow for the ensuing three to five years.
After drafting your business plan, you can follow the appropriate actions to incorporate your small firm. You’ll pick a legal structure for your company, apply for an employment identification number, register your “Doing Business As” name (if required), and obtain all the business permits and registrations required before you can start operating.
3. Find the right financing
Some conventional business loans might be challenging for startups to qualify for since they frequently need several years of business history. Instead, startup business entrepreneurs might think about methods for startup funding such microloans, grants, crowdfunding, or asking friends and family for money.

Here is a list of the top 10 lucrative businesses in Nigeria to get you started.

What is Web Scraping?
Web scraping is simply the act of gathering data from specifies or multiple sources on the internet. We scrape the web everyday, it doesn’t even have to be complex, gathering a top 10 list from forbes counts as web scraping. In the world of programming, when you hear the word web scraping, it no longer has to do with any manual method. Automated Web scraping is the act of gathering data automatically from a specific source or multiple sources across the internet.

Why do we scrape the web?
So why would anyone want to scrape the web? There are tons of scenarios that would lead to web scraping. First of all, it eliminates the stress of manually going to multiple websites to get information. You could simply write a program to do this for you and send the data to your email every morning. Some jobs also require regular data collection and web scraping could simplify a lot of things. Imagine building a Job Scraper that could help you scrape available jobs from multiple sources and send them to you every morning. So web scraping is a very cool and important part of many people’s day to day lives.

Is Web Scraping Legal?
This is a very good question and it all comes down to the kind of website you’re scraping. Some web owners be it an individual or organisation do not mind their websites being scraped while others forbid it. Once you dive into web scraping, you’ll notice some web owners actually take active measures to ensure people cannot scrape their websites. If you’re scraping a website privately for personal reasons, you may probably not run into any issues. If however you are planning on something on a larger scale, I’ll advise you to read the terms and conditions of any website you intend to scrape.

Web Scraping With Python
Python is one of the best programming languages there and most used too. It is the ideal choice for web scraping because of the powerful libraries that come with python. Tools like requests, lxml, beautifulsoup among others help to easily read and extract data from websites. There are many ways or tools to scrape the web using python but the three major and most tools ways are:

Yes, yes, i know…. obviously you know what VTU means, you just want to know how you’ll be more successful in the business. This explanation is for those who don’t know or aren’t really sure what it is.

VTU simply means “virtual top-up“. The entire concept of VTU wasn’t really always so popular in Nigeria. In the past, you were not able to buy airtime or data from your banks and to be honest, it hasn’t really been so long ago. Some of us have gotten so used to VTU that we don’t even remember that such an era existed, the era of “recharge cards”. If you ever need to make a call or browse the internet, you would go to a shot or outlet to buy recharge cards and load.

VTU doesn’t only consist of Data and Airtime, basically anything you can top up over the internet is a virtual top up. This includes your cable, your electricity bills and even your betting accounts, the range is pretty wide.

Now, VTU has made the lives of the average Nigerian easier and efficient. Now tell us, when last have you even touched, bought or loaded a recharge card? Kindly let us know using the comment section below.

So What Exactly is VTU Business All About?

Good, you now know what VTU is, but what then is VTU business? Nigerians are very lucrative citizens, we know how to monetize and make the most of virtually anything. From the moment VTU came to existence, Nigerians have made a solid business out of it and of course we would! Nigerians spend billions and yes you heard me, “billions” on data and airtime usage every month.

VTU business is all about selling or vending as we love to put it everything VTU has to offer. This includes but is not limited to;

Romance / Public Opinion: Women Dating Younger Men In Nigeria by robinwest: 1:53pm On Mar 19, 2022
The world has held women over the years accountable for their choices in men. The primitive man is regarded as one who possesses strength to hunt and protect his family. Even with modernization, it is no surprise to still see women who are attracted to a man that exudes some certain kind of strength. A man who is quite older is perceived to be well exposed, mature, knowledgeable and strong. Perhaps, it is for this reason that some society views a normal relationship between a man and a woman to be one where the man is the older partner. Society seldom questions the choice of men dating and marrying younger women as long as the woman is a legal adult. But the same society will question women seen with younger men. Times are changing and the adage “age is but a number” hasn’t been well explained before now.

Science/Technology / Reasons Why The Big Bang Theory Is Wrong. by robinwest: 9:28pm On Sep 23, 2020
In the beginning, God created the heavens and the earth……”out of nothing came something” This is a scripture from the bible. Do you know the first man that brought up the idea of the big bang theory was a Catholic Priest, Georges Henri Joseph Édouard Lemaître(1894-1966). Yes he was indeed a mathematician, physicist and astronomer but it does stir some questions of bias doesn’t it?

The Big Bang Theory is a cosmological model of the observable universe form the beginning through evolution on a large scale.

Its no news in Nigeria today, power supply has always been a problem. There are very few top class areas in Nigeria that can boast of a steady power supply, coming from a Nigerian it truly saddens but hopefully soon it will all change.

The lack of electricity in most areas in Nigeria has led to a high demand of generators and even a higher demand of power banks because it is more affordable and easier to maintain unlike solar panels and generators that need petrol.

We need power banks to be able to charge mobile devices on the go. In Nigeria today 3 out of every 5 Adult owns a portable power bank, due to this rise in demand there has also been an influx of fake power banks, so its hard to figure out which one is original and which is fake. (“and by fake i mean, imagine getting a 20,000mAh power bank that can’t charge a 3,000mAh android phone to 100% even once, yeah that’s how bad it is”).
