When Peter Obi speaks against office of first lady, the evil-minded feel wronged...look, she even talks about kuli kuli and akara business. As per those na start up now. WOW
“To start Akara business doesn't take a lot of money. To start roasting corn and kuli-kuli doesn't take much. We didn't give them a loan, we gave them a grant. We have encouraged Nigerians as best as we could.”
- First Lady Remi Tinubu
@TrendingEx@VendrNg Perhaps, this is one of the ministries where the minister is using their personal funds to run the ministry, as @aonanuga1956 said. Since govt. is handling many things at the same time, the minister's funds were, perhaps, not adequate to support this🤷♂️. Incompetence in 3D.
Priorities. You borrowed about 15 trillion to do coastal road but couldn’t sort out a 4 trillion naira debt in the first year of your government to guarantee stable electricity that will drive growth. You could have diverted subsidy savings to offset the debt owned the gas companies but no you shared it amounts yourselfs and state governors who squandered it on frivolities.
This government is bereft of ideas.
As someone who’s work in the field and has reviewed candidates, here’s what separates those who get interviews from those who don’t.
1. Stop applying everywhere.
Choose one niche, Healthcare, FinTech, Product, Marketing, Supply Chain, and build projects around it.
2. Build a portfolio that looks like real work.
Don’t use Titanic or Iris datasets.
Create 5–10 projects that solve actual business problems, with SQL scripts, dashboards, GitHub documentation, insights, and recommendations.
3. Build a list of 100 target companies.
Don’t wait for jobs to find you.
Research companies, bookmark their careers page, and check them weekly.
4. Find the hiring manager before you apply.
Search for:
Head of Data
Analytics Manager
BI Manager
Product Analytics Manager
Talent Acquisition Partner
Connect with them and engage with their content before reaching out.
5. Send personalised outreach.
Don’t ask for a job.
Introduce yourself, mention a relevant project you’ve built, and express interest in future opportunities. You’re building familiarity, not begging.
6. Don’t rely on LinkedIn alone.
Use:
Otta
Wellfound
We Work Remotely
Remote OK
Y Combinator Jobs
Greenhouse
Lever
Ashby
Company career pages
Many remote roles never make it to LinkedIn.
7. Get referrals strategically.
Join Slack communities, Discord groups, alumni networks, and local data communities.
A referral can move your application to the top of the pile.
8. Build your online reputation.
Post weekly about:
SQL
Dashboards
Case studies
Business insights
Projects
Hiring managers Google candidates. Give them something worth finding.
9. Tailor every application.
Mirror the keywords in the job description and highlight the projects most relevant to that role.
10. Follow up.
If you haven’t heard back after 7–10 days, send a polite follow-up. Many interviews happen because candidates stayed visible.
The biggest mistake I see isn’t a lack of skill.
It’s waiting for opportunities instead of creating multiple paths to them.
Tinubu - I will give you 24 hours of power supply, if I don't, no second term for me.
Peter Obi - I will improve our generation and transmission to 10,000 megawatts within 4 years.
Which is more realistic?
Remember, one is an honest man and one has issues with drugs that can cause irreparable damage according to him.
@MrLastBorn_@instablog9ja Questions for you: Based on the video, do you think the buyer ordered for granite mixed with baked clay? Are those "tiny pieces" in the mixture profitable for the buyer?
Peter Obi - It is wrong to settle the bill of a drunk while he is still at the bar, he has to come out of the bar first before you settle what he has drunk before.
Peter Obi's talk at the Platform is still one of the greatest political talks to date. >>>>>>>>>
@Elkrosmediahub Common sense is scarce this days. The GOAT @Nas said it right on "you mean the world to me": "But when you make a girl leave her man
You never really know where she stand
How you know she really yours?
Somebody could do the same to you"
