This just shows that there is a difference between having an audience and having the RIGHT audience as a business. I went through her page, she has over 3million followers, yet low sales. Everyone thinks growth saves business but this brand proves otherwise, here’s how. A THREAD
Omo, that 44 Clothing brand is closing down o!!
She said her brand is popular, people even want to model for it, but orders are not really coming in!!
The brand has fame but no patronage.
It is well
Tunde Onakoya teaches chess only to the kids from the Southwest, and has taken them abroad. We were happy and celebrated him for doing a great job.
Alex Onyia is pushing for Science and Math Olympiad in the Southeast, and has taken those kids abroad. Alex is now the tribal bigot.
Hypocritical idiots.
Trust me, most times it's not intentional. Most students have school, work and other personal matters, by the time they invest their energy and time into all these, they often end up forgetting to care for themselves. And most of them will rather spend the money on food.
I’ve noticed a pattern among some students. They stop taking care of themselves because they “study”
They believe they have to “look like they read” unkempt, exhausted, and looking stressed.
You need to see the joy on olodos' faces when a very academically sound person doesn't succeed in life. They relish it. It's almost as if it gives them more reasons to talk down on education and intelligence.
When we were graduating, after I finished as the top student in my class, many of my coursemates were really eager to see how I would turn out. In fact, I would always hear them gossiping: "No be by Best Graduating Student. To make am for life no be by acada. Street na military. We go see."
I'm glad I turned out really well. Even most of those who went to Ghana for "updates" after school and eventually resorted to fraud can't measure up to my accomplishments. Till today, many of them still randomly call me and jokingly ask, "Senior man, you just dey chop dey go. You no wan give men update na!"
Deep down, they genuinely believe I must be secretly involved in fraud. This is the society we live in, where many young people have come to believe that you can't succeed legitimately, and that every young man who is doing well for himself must be involved in fraud. Even many elderly people and police officers aren't exempt from this line of thinking.
I haven't seen a country that is trying so hard to make education unattractive like ours.
"School na scam."
"No be by BSc. You get BTC?"
"Education is the key to success. Oya, use the key start Benz na 😂."
"Lecturer pack 1999 Camry, student don pack Lexus beside am."
If we continue this way, in a few years, there will be nothing left of our educational system. We are so money-centred that we don't even realize education can be an end in itself and not necessarily just a means to an end.
Everything has become, "How much do you have in your account?" or "Use your intelligence buy Benz na."
This is one of the reasons it really hurts me to see highly intelligent and brilliant people end up poor. I'm always rooting for academically sound people to succeed because I genuinely want people, especially young people, to see that you can make it legitimately through hard work and academic excellence.
Any society where only the olodos become financially successful while the brighter minds, the ones who believe in due process, continue to struggle is a society that is bound to fail.
You are unlikely to ever be as rich as Dangote, and you have already missed the boat to fame as either an athlete or an artiste. But you have gained immortality by your efforts in pursuit of a sustainable and relevant educational system for the youthful victims of Nigerian..👏🏿
Flying Toke Makinwa and over 1,400 useless delegates to Dubai was apparently affordable.
But sponsoring a few of Nigeria's brightest minds to China to represent the country at an international mathematics competition was not.💔
Fvcking retards!
Nahhh, your FYP literally tells the kind of person you are. If the algorithm is pushing stupid contents to you, it means that's what you enjoy watching and engaging with. You can never scroll through my FYP and see a single video about Peller, VDM and the likes.
While on the olodo conversation, Big Brother Nigeria is probably one of the most stupid shows in existence. Proper brain rot content. And to think that some people spend all their time watching it?
Just in case y'all need a social media manager for your Akara, kulikuli, roasted corn and pear business page, I'm available.
As per, I'll finish studying law for 6 years and my next plan is how I'll buy a basin to start roasting corn, mitchewww.
My coursemates and I contributed ₦1.2 million for one of our classmates who has been jobless for the past 6 years.
We raised the money to help him learn a skill or start a small business so he could get back on his feet.
Just last week, he sent his wedding invitation in the group.
The whole group went silent.
When we asked him why, he said since he now had “a little money,” he decided it was the right time to marry his girlfriend of 4 years.
We said nothing.
He sent another message:
“Guys please, I can’t do this alone. My wedding budget is ₦3.2 million. I need your support.”
They removed him from the group immediately🙄
Law. In fact, if I have the opportunity to start uni from the beginning with all expenses covered, I'll still choose Law. I love the course but life is not allowing me to study it the way I want.
I read novels for entertainment. I’m not trying to memorise anything, and once I put the book down, most of the details fade away.😅
Ask me what happened a day later, and there’s a good chance I won’t remember. But while I’m reading it, I’m completely immersed; that enjoyment is what matters to me.
