Lucky you! It's very unfortunate the youths have chosen to become a menace to the same society that raised them but who do we blame? I detest cultism with every drop of blood in me!

In a way, every tribe was guilty of what the aro confederacy was doing

Hell, every race in the earth. The ancestors of the English people for example kept slaves who were white people long before they enslaved black and native Americans .So did the Romans, who enslaved people that we would regard as white. The Germans, even people living in the middle east enslaved people who came from the same tribe and race

Infact, the concept of slavery except in the Americas was not related to race. People could go to a village and enslave someone that spoke the same language with them. No one cared.

Infact the concept of an Igbo nation and a yoruba nation and hausa nation is something that developed in the wake of colonialism. Before white people came there were no such entities. A hausa person could in say the 16th century invade another hausa speaking polity, enslave people and sell them to North African traders. Ditto igbos and yourbas. Nothing like ' why are you doing this to me, we are the same tribe '

Slavery has a colorful historia

It's pathetic how these tribal e-warriors are just so ignorant and proudly dumb. It's so difficult for them to understand that the concept of the Igbo or Yoruba ethnicity we proudly hang around our neck today is just a few centuries old (if not less). They think it was all "rosey" back then.

The English people enslaved the Irish people and believed they were inferior, even today, most Irish people hate those guys because of what their (English) ancestors did to their ancestors. And these Irish are one of the "whitest" people today!

At one point, they weren't even accepted as "whites" in the U.S. just like most groups today that identify as "white."

superonyi i dont even have an android phone to roam the thread. I comment once in a while

I come to the thread for some comic relief after letting the comments pile up for weeks or months.

abba190:
I have peace of mind.

Abba , why you keep roaming all over the thread?

Fighttillvictory:
Igbo or no igbo you're in a biafra territory

Stop tripping and let them be, I'm tired of people like you making these folks feel like we're after their land or something — they are not more important than any other igboid group that make up the Igbo nation. The united "Igbo" ethnicity we know today is barely 200 years. They can be whatever they want, nobody cares... You just keep creating enemies for us!

I've been on the grind...

Dang, I forgot to take a photo yesterday — I was at work all day. I just snapped one right now to replace the one for yesterday . I think this means I will be shaving my beards.

okomile:

Something asked me to check out your profile and when I did, I saw that today was your birthday. So before the remaining two minutes of today fades away, I say a happy birthday to you.

SuperOnyi:


I'll live a fulfilled life.

I've been on the grind...

Makunahatata:

And u be 30 years old, your mates and Juniors dey do unimaginable advanced techs around the world...u dey do yan yan yan yan for Benin den go use block scatter hin head......shame on u ,mtcheew!

On God, I lose brain cells reading some of these Nairalanders' comments — typical barbaric homoerectus! Pathetic!

efembaba:
I was just telling my brother now that even if the guy had just taken like most of the money and left like 10k or 20k, it will still be ok. He wiped everything off.

This is why I just find it difficult to convince myself to make new Nigerian friends, our people are very heartless and barbaric. And believe me, this monster sees himself as smart and doesn't believe he did anything wrong. He will spend it on hard drugs, cigarettes, and women.

Jesus Christ! This is devastating and scary! I'm beginning to hate all of these banks.


Modified: Nigerians are evil, the definition of wickedness.

l have not published any of my books online but l publish them in hard copys but meanwhile l will start publishing online as soon as I can but my books are doing well in different bookshelves outside Nigeria

One thing I discovered from the good feedbacks and response of several readers to me is the contents of your book, does your book carry messages / informations that is relevant in solving people's needs?

People buy my books and recommend it to others, l once published a book and before they accepted the book in a VIP BOOKSHOP abroad, it took about one month of physical examination of the contents of the book because the bookshop receives books from different parts of the world, from best sellers, renowned authors etc and they take their time to screen your book and if they are not satisfied, they will call you to pick your book and tell you that they are not accepting it

So you can are the challenge for my book (an unknown author)to be accepted in that kind of VIP BOOKSHOP, and finally my book was approved and accepted because of what they read in the book, one of the senior officers in the bookshop was the one telling other managers that my book is / was good 😊

The book you publish or write, if you are not the author, would you see that same book and buy it?

One good book properly cooked 🍚 and is feeding different people in different parts of the world is better than 100 books that does not impacts the lives of people


Your book should be addressing different issues in the lives of people not just in your country but in different parts of the world

Remember that, that same niche or topic or title that you are writing or have written about, millions of other authors have done justice to such niche, so you have to find your way to atleast write something unique so that if someone can't find a known authors book but once they scroll up and down, see yours and it carries a message or solution to what they are looking for, they will purchase your book(s)

This is amazing! If you don't mind, can you tell us the niche you're focused on and if this method pays better than kdp.

My internet subscription are been sucked recklessly that I'm forced to ask myself what exactly I saw in MTN that all my sim cards are their products. The 5.5 gigabyte I transferred to my router got sucked in less than 24 hours, I was so shocked I had to confirm if someone was using it to watch videos of nàaked men and women on the internet.

helinues:
For almost 2 weeks now, it has been raining so heavily.

It also rained so heavily in China that the flood issue there currently is a big mess.

Hope all this global heavy raining is not the effect of UAE cloud seeding?

Just curious

And we've been begging for rainfall over here? The only thing I have noticed is how I fall asleep easily since I started working overnight again.

I used to see this man almost every week but the last time I saw him, he was on a motorcycle (okada) instead of his Jeep and looked thin. Goodnight sir, death will come when it will come. My regards to Saint Obi — I wonder what happens when we die.

iLegendd:
If you can draw, let me know.

I can't believe I wasted all my talents as a teenager in that evil Nwaboi apprenticeship — this gotta be God telling me to get back to drawing because I had a epiphany on this exact thing then I came across this thread while surfing your topics last week. Lord help us. Damnnn 😫

ambitiouschap17:
Don't mind him

Bro, share some screenshots to "increase" our motivation bar .

iLegendd:
Oh, I forgot to say the screenshots above is just for motivation and nothing more. There are people making millions every month while in their rooms without going out from JUST books.

I want to go into children's book, my plan was to draw it on a plain paper, color it and edit on canva — I have never edited such thing on canva so I was kinda lost on how to go about it. Luckily, I came across this thread while going through your old threads as I always do religiously. People say it won't be easy since I'm doing it the traditional way... plus it's highly competitive. Thanks a lot, sir — please never delete your account. Stay here forever with us .

SuperOnyi:




I feel so lazy and usèlèss, I'm not doing enough 💔😔.

I'll live a fulfilled life.

evb2000:
It is a highly competitive niche and requires a lot of ads. Not to discourage you. Throw in one or two books there and observe. Remember, children's book require a lot of illustrations. Do you have that skill? If no, can u afford outsourcing? These are the questions u should ask urself b4 jumping into that niche.

Wow! Thanks a lot, sir. I can draw pretty well soI thought I should put it to good use — dang!

evb2000:
Start small $50 - $100 and gradually increase ur ads budget as sales grow. Organic visibility is dying if not dead already.

Thank you sir but sir, what do you think of my plan for the children's book?

evb2000:
Grey pays almost at black market rate. Depending on your income, you can buy USD at the black market rate for safe keeping.

Good morning sir.

Sir, what about those of us without any money for ads? I was thinking of creating children books with illustrations, do you think they are profitable?

Though I don't have the equipment for that, I plan to draw everything on a plain white paper then use water color before going to a photography shop to take a photo of the drawing; then edit it on canva. Please what do you think? Are there any tips you're willing to share with me?

I really want to start making money in this business before it gets more hard, please help me out. Thank you.

Always creating threads with obviously dirty innuendos and claiming innocence!

iLegendd:
Legit. Even when the country recovers, people will still look down on farmers. Thank God Obasanjo, Amaechi, and other big names are also into farming to give it a better image.

I will surely do so too in the future and that's if I choose to stay back in Nigeria. Farming is so much fun and I love things that challenge me to do more; it makes life interesting as someone battling depression.

Looking back, it baffles me how farmers were painted as "uneducated and poor" in Nigeria, I remember how kids would call you a farmers and others will laugh so loudly. As a kid in his early teen, I remember listening (and watching) destiny kids' song on farmers and it dawned on me that a lot of Nigerians lack quality education — and this is not me talking down on their educational background.

Without farmers, there would be no food and a lot of these "graduates" who think they're better than farmers would go back to living in an hunter gathering society . Indeed, agriculture is one of the most important element needed to keep a country's foundation.

Sadly, it took the emergence of APC for Nigerians to realize this. There are still parents who would slap their children's mouth if they said they wanted to be a farmer.

The time is work o'clock — don't be a weakling 💪🏿.

By the way, if you're serious on surviving the APC renewed hope as a hustler — me and the og @therock5555 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 got something for you — just streetz tips on survival. You will see how I survived with just N169 in my bank account .

I started a challenge which involves not shaving and taking a picture everyday until I make $500 but unfortunately it has not been easy as I'm yet to hit even a quarter of that amount or anything at all.

The past few weeks had me trying out sport betting to raise money for my rent but due to the fact that it requires money too, I lost the little money I had. Instead of wallowing in pain, I remember myself of my goals for this year and how I haven't achieved even half of them; I got back on my feet and pumped my motivation to succeed.

This week I made a little over 6k at work and gave out 3k for contribution which I will getting mine next week and the following week — all of which will be used to pay off my rent. After dome expenses, I had 2.7k naira left.

I'm gonna try to saving up at least 1k from this money, no amount is too small. A lot of people have already giving up on their goals for this year, I'm using this opportunity to tell you to get back on your feet. Success isn't hard, focus is — when ilegendd said this, he told no lie.

If you can stay focused on just one thing you'll surely succeed, life isn't too short — take a wise decision and stick to it, it won't be easy. Weeks ago, I was so broke that I had to come on Nairaland to beg for jobs , it was hunger that motivated SuperOnyi to start fasting with Moslems and Christians. I refused to beg and despite the hunger and frustration, I pull out my middle finger and hanged it up in the sky.

A time will come when I'll start scamming these scammers just like they did to others.
