Nigerian parents and their favoritism toward the well-to-do child?
if not for the biological love, some of them needs to be disowned.. I swear

No lies!! Some Nigerian parents are doing that and that is a terrible behavior.

This one came here to brag not to learn. You are telling us you bought 885K HP laptop and you think that is all you need to scale through in tech?
I hope you are a rich kid?

We Nigerians love suffering so tey that we don take am as breakfast

One day on Nairaland, we will all have the opportunity to talk about millions of dollars that has yet to be discovered in the 3D Animation industry in Nigeria.

Why would I spent that so much money just to get another paper certificates that even getting a job is not certain.

Super Eagle may still find it difficult to win some games.

Yeah but you gotta be good at it . I developed a POS and ATM Terminal debit/credit card processing system that routes transaction to multiple card payment processors based on business logic , charges all kind of cards verve,visa and MasterCard both online pin verification and offline . I decided to delve in deeper and understand how apps are created on card chips with lead me to Java Card Architecture for writing card applets to chips /smart cards . You will be amazed at how powerful Java is , it's WORA capabilities is very good for business .Over 10 billion devices - SIM cards , Financial cards (credit and debit), Access door cards, Loyalty programme cards and yes the NFC architecture for contactless cards payment are all powered by Java. For the Java haters, you are just pained because you find it hard to understand the dynamics of OOP. JAVA will keep being king of enterprise applications and yes enterprise is the field you play in when you want the money in tech if you don't intend to be a founder RT al

As for me , plan is to get snapped up by a chip embossing company and eat the mulllaaaassss!!

Java reigns supreme .

Kotlin and Java will reign among the league of all programming languages

GreatKingg:
You mean 70k or 700k USD? If nah 700k you mean to type, bros abeg stop lying and misleading people. Even the biggest tech company nor go pay Principal Java Programmer that much.. so I believe you mean 70k. How much CEOs sef dey earn?

How much Sundai Paichai self dey ear per year

Let see how it goes

Bimffo:
The reason why you won't see a lot of Nigerians staying in Nigeria on social media teaching coding is because WE MUST SURVIVE FIRST.

Let me give you a theory. The main amenities you need to become a successful programmer are LAPTOP, MOBILE DATA, and ELECTRICITY.

Lets say you got money and got a good laptop, then there is epileptic power supply, you need to buy gen and fuel it everytime. Then we have the issue of Mobile data, where you have to subscribe 10k naira in a month.

if no one is sponsoring you, how do you want to cope when there is no work, because from your post, you said, you stare at the screen for 12 hrs+, i.e. You don't have any other thing you are doing, just coding.

Now lets talk abt food. You cant learn anything or do anything in hunger. You want to learn or teach coding alone, you must have started earning from coding, because when hunger catches you, ommmoooorrr, walahi, you no fit get your bearing.

These are the challenges poor programmers are facing in Nigeria except those from rich home with understanding parent. You can't be hungry and think of writing codes. What about electricity, house rent and Data? People will say they are excuses but this is the reality!
Life of a poor programmer in Nigeria!

NEUDUDE:
Lol. Try sit down for house two months, they learn coding. Watch how your neighbors carry your matter for head. The average Nigerian is all about getting money sharp sharp. They don't give a bleep about the long run

No use your own judge others. For Nigerians the learning curve is steep, so many factors can ruin you. Nepa, no money how many people fit afford laptop. Nigerians even see programmers who stay at home and freelance as lazy people or Yahoo boys lol. So my sis, if e good for you thank your God and run your thing codedly. No need to loud am

Walai you no lie at all. Some Nigerians are so daft that even among the educated ones will be looking at you as a lazy person if they always see you working on laptop. The only source they know that bring money is to go to work in the morning and come back home at 9ite.

Where the man go dey put in preek Crocodile mouth?? This is absolutely madness of the highest order

Everything in the book ends in the book.

I would not cheat on my darling wife shaa.

You want to collect food from some Nigerian female graduate be that?? Some had turn this to lucrative business

This thief too dey get mouth to talk

Nigeria economy situation don deal with everyone everywhere just silent.

Not knowing Bitcoin since 2012

Renman:
Americans, Britons, French nationals etc are in Nigeria(under developed)...so because they are in Nigeria then does that America, France, America etc are not developed Anambra is more developed than Ogun, Osun, Ondo, Oyo and Ekiti Yet it doesn't mean you won't find an Igbo man in those states!!!

Oyaa!!! Go developed that your potopoto republic ooo

Developers shouting they can developed anywhere but can't developed live and stay in their home soil are those ones ought to be call developers?? Developers of Lagos that can't developed Nnewi Awka and Onitsha

Bloomsbury:
I want to learn Android app with Java. Later on, I will upgrade to Kotlin.

Is this pathway now outdated?

I noticed a lot of devs here don't like going into anything that has to do with Java. Some say JAVA is dead. Others say web development is now the in thing.


What's your advice for me who want to pursue this Career track?

Is leaning Android app dev with Java currently still worth it?

No!! You can still developed Android project with Java is just that google is giving maximum support for Kotlin over Java which makes developers and tech companies to focus on moving to Kotlin. Hundreds of companies software applications still on Java. Android development is either Java or Kotlin. Kotlin is concise and pragmatic language which reduce boilerplate. it interporability with Java makes it it superb. It makes developers to write lesser code compare to Java.
Kotlin is simple version of Java for native Android development.
