People asking what Wahab taught us?

1. Never miss a class.
2. Summarize what you have learned into the most concise form. He had a 2A exercise book for this.
3. Associate it with life.
4. Schedule time to refresh your memory. He had the exercise book in his back pocket always.

If you want to buy clothes, accessories, and gadgets at cheaper prices with good qualities, this post is for you.

Here are the best sites and apps where Nigerians can shop for less:

- For clothes and fashion:

1. SHEIN (shein. com): ships directly to Nigeria. One of the cheapest places to buy trendy clothes, bags, shoes, and accessories. The prices are low but read reviews and check size charts before ordering.

2. Temu (temu. com): clothes, accessories, and more at prices that will shock you. Stack your coupons and limited time discounts before checking out. We have talked about this one before.

3. AliExpress (aliexpress. com): one of the largest online marketplaces in the world. Ships to Nigeria with free shipping on most items. Delivery takes 15 to 45 days so plan ahead.

- For gadgets and electronics:

4. Banggood (banggood. com): smartphones, accessories, earphones, smartwatches, and more at very affordable prices. Ships to Nigeria and runs flash sales regularly.

5. MiniInTheBox (miniinthebox. com): perfect for gadget lovers. Covers phone accessories, bluetooth speakers, smartwatches, drones, and more. Ships to Nigeria.

- For both fashion and gadgets:

6. Konga (konga. com): solid Nigerian platform covering fashion, electronics, and accessories. Pay with your naira card and enjoy flexible payment options including KongaPay.

7. Amazon (amazon. com): not everything ships directly to Nigeria but you can use a shipping forwarding service like Bazebo or MyUS to receive your items locally. Great for premium gadgets at better prices than what you see in Nigerian stores.

A few things to always remember before you order from any of these sites:

- Read the product description carefully.
- Check buyer reviews and real photos.
- Confirm your size before ordering clothes.
- For international sites, make sure you have a dollar card or a card that supports international transactions.

The same item selling for 50,000 naira in a local shop could be sitting on one of these platforms for 15,000 naira.

Get started and thank me later.

Above all, love God.

Once you learn how to shop directly from China, E.g Temù or shien your wardrobe changes completely. Call me cheap I don't care I ain't rich, I don't do fraud.😭

It's knowing what to search for.

Here's my style after making plenty of mistakes.

1. T-shirts:

Skip 100% polyester unless you're buying gym wear.

Instead, search:
• 100% Cotton
• Combed Cotton
• Heavyweight Cotton
• 240-300 GSM Cotton
• Premium Cotton
• Mercerized Cotton

The heavier the GSM, the thicker and more premium the shirt usually feels.

2. Jeans:

Denim Jeans
Temu is surprisingly good for denim if you know what to search.

Search:
• Denim Jeans
• Cotton Denim
• Raw Denim
• Selvedge Denim (if available)
• 98% Cotton + 2% Elastane
• 99% Cotton

Avoid jeans with high polyester content. The more cotton, the better they'll age and feel.

3. Body-hug clothing:

Search:
• Ribbed Knit
• Modal
• Viscose Blend
• Cotton-Spandex Blend

They hold their shape much better than cheap polyester.

4. Hoodies
Search:
• 400 GSM
• French Terry
• Cotton Fleece
• Heavyweight Hoodie

5. Chains
Search:
• 316L Stainless Steel
• Titanium Steel
• PVD Gold Plated
• Vacuum Plated

These are far more resistant to fading than ordinary fashion jewelry.

6. Earrings
Search:
• 925 Sterling Silver
• 316L Stainless Steel
• Hypoallergenic
• Moissanite (if you're buying stones)

7. Scarves
Search:
• Mulberry Silk
• Silk Blend
• Cashmere Blend
• Wool Blend
• Viscose

Avoid the shiny, thin polyester scarves if you're after a premium look.

8. Loafers
Search:
• Genuine Leather
• Cow Leather
• Full Grain Leather (rare but worth looking for)
• Rubber Outsole

9. Sneakers
Search:
• Rubber Outsole
• EVA Midsole
• Breathable Mesh
• Leather Upper
• Stitched Sole

Pictures lie a lot

The description usually tells the truth.

Here's how I shop:

1. Read the material composition before anything else.

2. Sort by Most Orders or Best Selling, not cheapest.

3. Only buy products with lots of reviews or pictures or even better when a Nigerian has purchased it before they always tell the truth.

4. Read the 1-star reviews first. They'll tell you what the seller won't.

5. Look at customer photos, not the product photos.

6. Check the weight of the product. Better quality clothing is often heavier.

7. Read the size chart. Don't assume your Nigerian size matches.

8. If the title has words like "luxury," "premium," or "designer" but the material is 100% polyester, not everything but still move on.

Your best friend isn't the product picture.

It's the material, the reviews, and the customer photos.

That's how you separate the gems from the junk.

I hope this help.

Things are to expensive for a country this poor.

Glimpses of the frontline...the operation to free Oyo school children and their teachers

[Technical Ben @TechnicalBben]

Most people judge clothes on Temu by the photos.

Big mistake.

The fastest way to avoid buying clothes that feel like cheap plastic is to ignore the pictures and read the Fabric Composition.

Here's a simple cheat sheet:

Avoid (unless blended well)
• 100% Polyester
• 95% Polyester, 5% Spandex
• Cheap synthetic blends

Run away.

These are usually thin, shiny, trap heat, build static, and often feel like swimwear instead of actual clothing.

Look for
• Modal (extremely soft)
• Combed Cotton
• Ring-Spun Cotton
• 100% Cotton
• Viscose/Rayon (soft and smooth)

If you're shopping for specific items:

Jeans:
Search "100% Cotton Denim", "Heavyweight Denim", or "Rigid Denim".

Dress shirts:
Search "Oxford Cotton", "Cotton Poplin", or "100% Cotton Dress Shirt".

Jackets:
Search "Heavyweight", "Fleece Lined", or "Wool Blend".

Vintage clothes:
Look for Corduroy, Heavy Knit, or Washed Cotton.

One last trick that saves me money every time:

Never trust the product photos.

Go straight to the reviews, filter by "With Photos", and look at pictures uploaded by real buyers. That's where you'll see what the fabric actually looks and feels like.

Also look out for promos, you can get stuff for cheap and free packages for a cheap price.

Hope this helps once you understand your size, body, texture or material you're good.

THE NIGHT BEFORE THE AFRICAN WEDDING

[Toby @TomolaGroup]

Earning ₦400,000 monthly is a good start, but without structure, that money can disappear fast.

Here’s a simple way to manage it using the 55/10/35 rule 👇

1) 55% Needs = ₦220,000
This covers your essential expenses: rent, transportation, food, electricity, data, health bills, and other fixed costs.

Tip: Keep rent at or below 35% of your income. If your rent is annual, divide it monthly to stay on track.

2) 10% Wants = ₦40,000
This is for lifestyle expenses that make life enjoyable: hanging out, fashion, hobbies, subscriptions, or small treats.

Tip: Be intentional here. Wants shouldn’t eat into your savings.

3) 35% Savings & Investments = ₦140,000
This is where the real wealth building happens.
• Emergency fund
• Stock market or T-bills
• Retirement plan
• Side hustle capital

Practical Analysis:
If you invest ₦140,000 monthly at an 8% annual return:
• In 5 years, you could have over ₦17.5 million
• In 10 years, about ₦47 million
• In 20 years, it could grow to ₦140 million+

Financial freedom isn’t about how much you earn, it’s about how intentionally you manage it.

Sometime ago, I paid one of my staff his salary and he wasn't happy receiving it.

It was the last week of September that year and as usual, salary week. We paid everyone early as always and there's this session we normally have after salaries have been paid.
