Helinues just stop creating monikers.... It doesn't indicate you're sane.... Try and be proud of where you're from... If you want to forge an igbo identity, do it correctly

But seriously, how are you able to spot people who create multiple monikers?

Community investment in terms of infrastructure like housing, roads, electricity and portable water!
Perhaps, that may be true and commendable.
But what about the mental setbacks caused unrealistic church lectures of every Sunday?

You may not understand the negative mental impact (which are far more enormous than the good side) his ministry and that of other churches like Redeem, Christ embassy, Mfm, Grace nation, etc, are causing Nigerians until you find yourself outside this country to see how Christianity is practiced in Europe and other educated regions of the world.

The truth is, these churches are not educating us.
The only good thing they do to Africans is to uphold and teach the resurrection of Jesus Christ and salvation through Grace. Every thing else they teach, is flop.

Like most African traditional religions, juju priests and deities of the old, these churches continue to make Nigerians feel that this life is controlled by spirituality, but that isn't true.

Development in science and technology seen in other nations were never achieved through spirituality, but rather, through education.

(If you don't mind, would love to connect with you. Admire your courage to speak up)

Just read a quote from an American theologian James D Smart:

"I am convinced that the mounting ignorance of the contents of the Bible among members of the church... constitutes the crisis beneath all the other crises that endanger the church's future."

How many believers today actually know the contents of the Bible, beyond the massively distorted snippets peddled by their favourite "pastors"?

Why do we have so many "Christians" today who readily parade stickers and other merch of their "pastors" yet routinely indulge in acts that would make the devil cringe?

Truth is: after the one sponsored by our parents & guardians, we all need to be responsible for our own education.

It may seem easier to listen to people who peddle life hacks like chanting the right "confessions" or "declarations", but without proper knowledge of the truth revealed in the Bible, we risk keeping ourselves slaves of ruthless tyrants.

Selah...

You seem to know a lot about marketing and generating leads for businesses.

Do the people you deal with ever need news coverage, or is that outside what you handle?

Travel content can do more than show people where to go. A practical guide to transport, accommodation, budgeting or local customs can help someone plan a trip, while giving a blogger, hotel or travel agency a way to build a lasting audience online. For Nigerian creators, the challenge is often not finding ideas; it is getting useful work in front of readers who have not discovered their own website yet.

Guest posting is one way to reach those readers. It means writing an article for another website, usually for the benefit of that site's audience. When the subject and publication are a good fit, the article can introduce your work to new people and may include a link back to a relevant page on your own site. That link can bring referral visitors and contribute to your site's visibility in search, but it is not a shortcut to instant rankings or sales.

Start with a reader's problem
Before pitching a publication, decide who you want to help and what they need to know. A first-time visitor to Lagos may want advice on getting around safely and managing transport costs. Someone planning a trip to Obudu may need seasonal guidance, realistic travel times and a checklist of what to pack. A hotel might be able to explain how to choose accommodation for a family holiday, rather than simply listing its own rooms.

Specific, experience-based topics are more useful than broad pieces such as “Why you should travel.” Consider the questions people ask before they spend money: What should they budget for? Which documents or bookings should they arrange? What could go wrong, and what is a sensible backup plan? Give accurate, current answers and distinguish personal experience from information readers should confirm before travelling.

Choose publications carefully
A guest article is only valuable if it reaches the right audience. Check whether a site's recent posts are genuinely about travel, destinations or closely related subjects. Look at the quality of its writing, how regularly it publishes and whether its readers are likely to care about your topic. A large audience is not automatically a relevant one.

It can take time to find publications that accept outside contributions. A directory such as iCopify’s travel guest-posting listings can give bloggers, hotels and agencies a starting point for researching travel websites and blogs. Treat any directory as a shortlist, not a guarantee: visit each publication, read its current guidelines and check that the site is still active before preparing a pitch.

Be cautious of offers that promise instant search rankings, demand payment without clear terms, or ask you to publish material that misleads readers. Check what the editor expects, whether links are allowed, and who retains the rights to the article. A legitimate placement should make sense for the publication's readers even if they never click a link.

Make the pitch easy to assess
Editors receive many requests, so keep your proposal brief and specific. Mention the site's audience, suggest a clear headline and explain what the article will help readers do. If you have relevant writing samples, share them. Avoid sending a generic message to dozens of websites; a pitch that refers to a publication's actual coverage is more likely to show that you understand its readers.

Once an idea is accepted, agree on practical details before writing: deadline, word count, formatting, image requirements, editing process and link policy. Write an original article for that publication rather than copying a post from your own blog. Use a link only where it supports the reader's next step, and make sure the linked page delivers what the sentence promises.

Budget for the work, not just the placement
Publishing useful travel content involves more than typing. Research may require checking current fares, opening hours, entry rules or accommodation details. Images need permission, captions and sensible file sizes. A small team may also need help with editing, design, video, translation or technical work on its website. Decide which tasks you can handle yourself and which are worth outsourcing.

Freelance marketplaces can help when a project needs a particular skill. For example, osdire connects buyers with freelancers across areas such as writing, programming, design, photography and marketing. Its flat pricing and held-payment process can make costs and order approval clearer, though you should still agree on deliverables, deadlines and revision limits before work begins. Review a freelancer's relevant samples and give a detailed brief; a marketplace cannot replace good project management.

Measure what happens afterwards
Do not judge a guest article only by whether it produces an immediate booking or a jump in search traffic. Track referral visits, enquiries, newsletter sign-ups and which topics prompt useful responses. If readers arrive but leave quickly, the article or destination page may not match their expectations. If a topic attracts thoughtful questions, it may be worth developing into a fuller guide of your own.

For Nigerian travel businesses and independent creators, steady progress comes from combining accurate information with careful distribution. Choose a real reader need, pitch publications that serve that audience, and spend within a budget you can justify. A well-researched article may keep helping travellers long after publication—and a clear, trustworthy online presence gives them a reason to return.

HTXchange:
I’ve always considered myself a creative person, but I never really stopped to think about the specific strengths behind it.

I took this career strength assessment recently, and one thing that stood out to me was how strongly my results pointed toward creative problem solving, strategic thinking, and turning ideas into practical solutions.

That actually made a lot of sense when I looked at the things I naturally enjoy doing.

What surprised me was that the assessment also suggested career areas where these strengths could be useful, instead of simply telling me to “follow my passion.”

If you are a student, graduate, or even someone already working but wondering whether you are in the right career path, it is worth trying.

Take the assessment here:

It takes just a few minutes.

Sometimes you do not need to discover a new talent. You just need to understand the strengths you already have.

Thanks for sharing.

Since you're into creative problem solving and strategic thinking, I'm guessing you meet people who want more visibility in the news.

Do you get clients like that, or is that outside what you handle?

Kiyosetcode5:
For business owners here, do you think having a website is still important when most customers discover businesses through WhatsApp, Instagram and Facebook?

Personally, I think a website gives a business a more permanent online presence. It gives customers somewhere to properly see what you offer, learn about your business and contact you without having to dig through social media posts.

But I’d like to hear from other business owners:

**Does your business currently have a website? If not, what’s stopping you from getting one?**

I’m a website designer/developer, so I’m also interested in hearing what business owners actually look for when they decide to build a website.

ChristCee:
First time hearing about Selar. I made my research and it's like a digital marketplace for books.

If you really wanna do serious marketing for your digital store, affiliate or any other type of marketing (like SEO, LLM visibility, etc) you need your own website and self hosted frontend. The advantages are numerous.

A close friend of mine who is an alumnus of Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife reached out to me stating his frustration about applying to obtain his transcript for over 3 years!!!

Please can anyone help out - how can I help him out, he's desperately in need of the transcript like ASAP
Thank you

Sorry to hear about your experience with their online platform.

(Sadly, it seems many organizations put up websites just to follow the crowd. Have had similar experience with some other well-known institutions that are essentially ghosts online)

But that's by the way

Have you considered getting someone you know who is on ground to physically visit the university?

Frankly, projects like this usually involve a lot of back-and-forth. And dealing with someone you know can help you avoid "stories that touch"...
