Diligent1:
Please, how?
One needs to use his/her talent. I graduated over a decade ago, I discovered there is nothing in this country. So, I decided to look around my environment to observe what could be beneficial to the people around there. I discovered fish farming will be suitable then, I started. I later diversified into digital stuff base on my little computer and writing skills. I learnt how to make bar soap, liquid soap, paints and I became a tutor.

Now, cryptocurrency & estate agent have taken over.

Thank God I am not seeking for job right now!

The person in question can easily use her brain to earn higher than what an employer will pay her.

I may not be super rich but I thank God, I can afford my daily meals.

To Job seekers out there: don't wait for who will pay you after giving your best to boost his /her revenue/stream of income rather, channel your effort to where you will benefit 100%.

Jobs/Vacancies › Re: How Being A Nigerian Cost Me A Foreign Job by rolams(m): 3:24pm On Oct 21, 2021
Blue001:
Hi Nairalanders,

Last year I lost my Job as an AfterSales Analyst at a multinational company called AlFuttaim in the Peak of the Covid scare in Dubai, UAE. This is when it all began, Paying my rent became a problem, feeding became a problem. At that time the frustration in the country was everywhere due to the lock down and lot of Nigerians joined some illegal activisties in the UAE.

Unlike other nations Known to me, the desperation of Nigerians is quite on the high side so most delved into Yahoo-Yahoo. So it was so rampant and obvious in Dubai then and even now.
The difficulty was much and the lockdown was highly enforced, not giving room for any means of making ends meet.
At that time I had to return to Nigeria, I stayed with my sister’s husband because he was alone during the lockdown hoping to return back to the UAE when the opportunity rises again.
I had to start up a POS business with a 50k support from a family member, but due to the location of the business which is a developing environment, customers traffic was very low, sometimes I made 400 naira daily as profit though the ironic factor was that the closest ATM for cash refill was 600naira daily.
So the business couldn’t thrive. I had to start an analytic firm just to be employed but honestly so many factors I can’t explain here hinders infant industries in Nigeria.
Now in Dubai, Nigerians already have bad names in the communities and employers weren’t willing to considering Nigerians. Though I kept applying to different organizations in Nigeria and in Dubai like wise.
I really never understood the Nigerian market also, when I got some interviews but was turned down as a result of under employment. Three organizations made this clear to me during the interview. So at that time I had to wonder if being qualified for a job is now a curse.
I have had Nigerian HRs contacting me via my LinkedIn portfolio but never landed me any Job.

Now the highlight of the frustration is that, I just got a Job at Dubai with AWRostamani another multinational as a Senior Data Analyst in the internal Audit department, and I am to be paid 9000aed which is like 1.4million naira. Two days ago made it three weeks the HR confirmed the Job as mine instructing that I go to their company’s platform to update my details where she will process my e-employment letter & Visa which I did immediately.
But I never heard from them, I sent mails informing them that I had already created my profile but yet to see an employment letter, yet no response. So on Tuesday (a day before yesterday) I had to call them and this is when the HR told me they are having difficulties processing my employment visa since I am a Nigerian and there is an on going ban on visa processes on Nigerians (aside Tourist Visas). I called some of my friends Nigerians and non-Nigerians living in Dubai to ask if they know any possible way I could go through to get this sorted out, they said it’s impossible because they are very much aware about the Nigeria situation in Dubai.

I dint know when tears began running down my eyes and my mum crying with me because she knows how bad I need a change.

Please Nairalanders, I am a data Analyst with over 5 years experience. Can you please help me with an opportunity or if you know a place I could find an opportunity.

Sports › Anthony Joshua Working With Mike Tyson’s Ex-trainer For Oleksandr Usyk Rematch by rolams(op): 12:50pm On Oct 20, 2021
Anthony Joshua has started to train with Mike Tyson’s former coach Ronnie Shields ahead of his rematch against Oleksandr Usyk.

Joshua lost his WBA, WBO, IBF and IBO heavyweight titles last month as Usyk secured a unanimous decision victory.

Following his defeat, Joshua and his current head trainer Rob McCracken have received criticism for their approach to the fight against Usyk.

Joshua, who has already activated his rematch clause, has visited various gyms in the United States in an effort to change his game plan for the second fight against the Ukrainian.

And Shields, who is based in Texas and has trained the likes of Tyson, Evander Holyfield, Pernell Whitaker and Arturo Gatti, has made it clear he is keen to work with Joshua on a permanent basis.


‘It was them who reached out to me,’ Shields said in an interview with ThaBoxingVoice.

‘They reached out to me and they asked me would I be interested in taking a look at AJ and he would like to come down to Texas and see if things could work out between him and I.

‘I said, ‘yeah, no problem, I would love to take a look at him, love to see if we can mesh together’.

‘You could say it was kind of like an audition but for me, every time I talk boxing, boxing is boxing, I don’t care who I’m talking boxing with. There’s no such thing for me as getting nerves or anything like that because I do this every day, this is not something that’s new to me. Names don’t mean anything to me, if I can help somebody I’ll help somebody, I just tell them what I think and how I feel. I didn’t get nervous or anything like that because I’ve been here too many times, I’ve done it too many times.

‘For a heavyweight, it would be great to get him to reclaim his world titles that he lost to Usyk and I think I’ve got the capabilities to help him to do that.

‘In the last two days everything seemed to go well. The first day was just all talk, we talked for about three or four hours.

‘And when he came back today I told him I wanted to do just some light pad work with him just to show him everything we talked about because you can talk it but you’re going to have to be able to prove and show a fighter what you mean and how you do things. I just put him through some drills that made him understand what I was talking about the day before.

‘We watched a few rounds of the Usyk fight together and I just pointed out some things that I thought he should’ve done that he didn’t do.


‘We had a great talk yesterday, today was even greater. There’s something I showed him that he said, ‘man, I was never taught to do this’.

‘It surprises me that a guy who was heavyweight champion of the world doesn’t know certain things.

‘Like he said, ‘European boxing is different from boxing in the United States’. He realised that he had to come to the United States to get something different.

‘Obviously it wasn’t the right game plan, I told him he didn’t fight like himself. I think he’s a much better fighter than what he showed in that Usyk fight.

‘I watched a few rounds with him and his team, I told him about certain things and he said, ‘yeah man, that’s what we should’ve done, but we didn’t do it’.

‘When you have a game plan you have to work on it every day, you have to get it down pat before that fight and when you get in there you have to do things you did in the gym.

‘I don’t know what their game plan was, obviously it wasn’t the right one and I guess he didn’t feel like it was the right one so this is why he wanted to make a change.

‘I’m going to tell you the first thing he told me when he came here, he told me, ‘listen, I know people don’t think that I’m a dog, I’m just a pure boxer, look, I’m gonna be a dog in this next fight’. And that’s his words.


‘He told me, ‘I’m gonna be a dog in this fight, I just need you to show me how to be the best dog that you can teach me to be’.

‘That answered the question for me because my thing to him was, ‘why did you box the whole time?’, and he said he thought he could out-box him, and that was the game plan, to me that was the wrong fight, now he knows that was the wrong fight.

‘To teach a man to be a dog he has to have the dog instincts in him already. He says he has it in him, if things work out and I’m training him and once it comes down to it, now in the gym is the time to show it and in the fight you’ve got to show it too. It’s going to be hard work, we sat down and talked about everything and I think everything went great.’


Asked if he feels Joshua has enough to beat Tyson Fury, Shields replied: ‘Oh absolutely.

‘He’s a lot bigger than I thought he was, he’s not fat, he’s trained up pretty good, he has the stature, anybody who can punch and knows how to put punches together has a chance against a guy like Tyson Fury.

‘But him and I never talked about Tyson Fury, his whole thing was Usyk, he knows in order to get to Tyson Fury he’s got to get by Usyk first and that’s number one priority.’
