Dear young Nigerian,
Be guided.Direction is much better than speed. It is not about how fast you attain goals but more importantly how well you impact lives. Know where you are now and commit to what is required to get you to where you ought to be. Seek clarity. Seek mentorship.
Omoh, I sharply climbed the fence with one long stick and adjusted the camera back towards her compound😂 Make she monitor her compound in peace. Our compound no be Big Brother Naija
This one reminded me of my own experience 😂
We had a neighbour who travelled out and after some months, she started building another flat in her compound. She finished the building and the next thing was to install one of those solar cameras on the fence separating our compound
Moment a Nigerian Man Based In The UK Spoke To His Parents Through a Security Camera While They Were Exercising In Their Compound. They Were Completely Shocked When They Suddenly Heard His Voice Coming From The Camera. He Had Been Watching Them From The UK The Whole Time. 😂♥️
Guess where the camera was facing? Directly into our compound
My mum started complaining that she sometimes hears a voice talking from the camera. My dad too noticed it. When I came home and saw where the camera was facing, I said ahhh so na us be CCTV footage😂

When I was working in the bakery, almost everyone saw me as a striker. In fact, they called me a striker. They said I understood the business within the shortest possible time. A great asset, they said. One day, one of our ogas approached me and said "What do you need in your life. I'm ready to do it for you. We need you in this bakery". They tempted me with their offer but I declined. Baker? Me? How? Why? I wanted to become an engineer. My dad wanted me to become a soldier. This newly found profession doesn't even synchronise. Iro oo. I turned it down. The oga patapata came back with a better offer. I countered it, this time with a stern face.
At that age, I was making money. I managed the finance of the bakery. I recorded anything I wished. The world was at my fingertip. Me, a young man with many dreams, has now turned an accountant and a baker...and an economist, and a negotiator plus a role model in a bakery. A week after going back and forth, I decided it was time to be aggressive with my goals. "I'm going home tomorrow", I told them. They all thought I was joking. How could this boy turn down this great offer? This guy is making money, what is he going home for? That decision saved many things for me. They would have tied me down with their yeye offer. Many people we worked together then are still in that bakery.
Now, this is where I'm going. Some hustles aren't for long-term goals, they are just like a means to an end. Don't let the small margin fool you. Pick up something sustainable, one that will build your future. Noting is guaranteed, agreed. But the odds are high in some than others.
Invest in long-term, sustainable skills. It doesn’t have to be tech or digital. Learn something for your future. Don't joke with your studies. Education isn't scam. You are from Nigeria. It's still one of the best ways to exit Sapa life.
Been a quiet fan of someone for so long, saw him this morning while heading to work. He was just ahead of me, coming back from a run.
Didn’t say a word
Now it feels like I missed something I might never get again😭😭
