Ithream:
Just about yesterday after speaking with my Class advicer, I was left in a depressed state.

I am currently on my 400level IT and I am to return back to school this coming new year by January. He told me about my result. He said my CGPA is the highest so far. Which makes me his best student. I asked him for the exact CGPA which he replied with with a *4.06*. My God I wondered why he was glad to break such a sad news to me. I thought I had chances of making it a 4.1+ the previous semester. I told him thanks. But I know I wasn't Happy

I did the maths...and I found out that the highest CGPA I can make is 4.2+ after my final year(2 semesters left) I feel terrible right now. How can I shift it to 4.3+ Cgpa? I have heard of students borrowing courses but I don't really know if this could be one of their reasons for doing such.


NB: I am not in anyway trying to make it look like having such a CGPA is bad or I am ungrateful. It's just that I have plans of applying for scholarships to study abroad but won't such a Gp hinder me?

Pls I need someone to placate me with motivational words. I feel like a looser. After all these years of studies! What if I loose the passion for school or studies after returning next year? I feel real bad

What if I might even loose the chance of being the best graduating student of my set like my class adviser had said

Sowore is going about things the wrong way. You need to pay your dues politically anywhere in the world and especially Nigeria. Merkel did not come out of nowhere, neither Teresa May or Even Trump. They all ran on powerful political platforms they are members of. It is good for our democracy Sowore is competing but I feel he should have started more modestly in the house of Rep or Senate. I believe he has something to offer but may have damaged himself running a race he has no chance of winning as it can be argued Ribadu did when he ran as Presidential candidate of ACN in 2011. Time will tell where Sowore goes from here.

Knowing the best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria has become a problem for most hustlers who intend to leave their comfort zone for greener pastures. It is virtually true that we are one Nigeria, but some states are greener than the other when it comes to hustling.

There are 36 states in Nigeria, but not all of them are good for hustlers to make money. Since I came back to Nigeria, I have toured virtually 30 states – excluding the core northern states, and I believe that my claims can hold water.

When I talk hustling, I mean a combination of full-time job, business, and some other legal and illegal kinds of stuff. Whichever you intend doing; these states can offer you a type of lifeline. I will list out the states, and the suitable kind of hustle to do in the state.

Just at the end of the article, you can add up your own contribution should in case I made some pretty good errors.

There are several several businesses you can do in the states I am about to mention, it depends on you to find discover them when you visit the blog using the source link.

Top 5 Best Cities to Hustle and Make Money in Nigeria



Lagos

Lagos is called the golden city and in fact, it tops the list of best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria. Aside from the fact that the growing population of Lagos is exceeding the land mass of the state, it is still a green area to hustle and make money.

It is called a no-man’s land because it houses an equal number of virtually all the tribes in Nigeria. You have to believe that once you are good at something, you will surely make money in Lagos as a hustler.

Regardless of the widely acclaimed fact that there are no jobs in Nigeria, it is easier to get a job in Lagos than anywhere else in Nigeria. No matter your type of hustle, you will still find similar amigos in Lagos to help you. If you are searching for one of the best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria, then Lagos is surely there for you.

Best types of hustle in Lagos => Full-time Job, Business, and Freelancing.

Anambra (Onitsha and Nnewi)

These two cities combined have produced more millionaires than any other city in Nigeria. They are the hub of several businesses in Nigeria. If you know you got business potentials and willing to establish yourself as a business mogul, then you need to relocate ASAP to any of these two cities in Anambra state. Those two cities are certainly some of the best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria.

I would suggest that you should be staying within the eastern part of Nigeria to fully tap into the riches that Onitsha and Nnewi have to offer.

Hustling Opportunities in Anambra => Business

Kano

Just like Lagos, Kano state has positioned itself as one of the best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria. It is basically situated in the core northern part of the country. It is an Islamic controlled state, but we have more hustlers than religious fanatics in the state.

If you are interested in exporting goods (Tomatoes, Cows, Onions, and etc) from the north to other parts of Nigeria, then Kano state is there for the taking. There are also other fast-moving products like clothes, shoes, and many others that you can import from a mega city like Kano and sell in other parts of the country.

Hustling opportunities in Kano => Business.

Abuja

It is the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria, and it is a city with lots of opportunities for everyone. Unlike the cities above, Abuja is one hell of a city for new-time hustlers. The city is fast-paced; and unless you have the good capital and a base, you might find it hard penetrating.

Private jobs are quite scanty unless you have someone in government to give you a mouthwatering federal govt job.

It is a city that welcomes freelancers who are involved in one business or the other. As long as your initiatives are unique with lots of benefits to users, you will surely thrive in a city like Abuja. It is one of the best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria if you have a skill you are good at.

There are more of heavy spenders in Abuja than good places to make money as a hustler.

Hustling opportunities in Abuja => Freelancing, Business, and Federal Govt Jobs.

Ibadan

It came into the list of best cities to hustle and make money in Nigeria because of its teeming population. Ibadan is the largest city in West Africa, and the population continues to grow.

Aside from that; the low cost of living has made it a good entry point for armature hustlers to find their bases before projecting. I personally started off in Ibadan and the environment was something to write good about.

The purchasing power of inhabitants in Ibadan isn’t on the high side, but the population makes up for it. There are so many hustling opportunities in Ibadan and it is up to you to figure I out.

Training centres, freelancing, business, and job (low paying ones), are in abundance in Ibadan.

No matter you take home amount monthly, you can still survive pretty well anywhere around Ibadan.

Hustling opportunities in Ibadan => Freelancing, Business, and Low-paying jobs.

It depends on you to find your preferred area of business and freelancing strength. I personally hate 9-5 jobs; that is why I created the smartlazyhustler.com blog to show other hustlers how we can make money together. I suggest you always visit the blog.

You can see other legal and illegal business opportunities should in case you want to become an entrepreneur. I wish you the best. Just remember to subscribe to my hustler’s list and gain valuable information. Just click the link below and join my secret list.

Rheumatic fever is an
inflammatory disease that can involve the heart, joints, skin, and brain.The disease typically develops two to four weeks after a streptococcal throat infection. Signs and symptoms include fever , multiple painful joints,
involuntary muscle movements , and occasionally a characteristic non-itchy rash known as erythema

May God give you more energy to shave all their hairs.

No responsible male student carries bushy hair or dreadlocks.
I stand to be corrected.
Technically speaking; a bushy haired student is a blockhead because the hair prevents wisdom from reaching their brain.

Shame on any parent whose son has a bushy hair.

Decency and morality must be instilled by force since parents have failed in their primary responsibility of raising decent kids.
I wish this could be tagged an OPERATION SHAVE THEM ALL and extended to our churches and police roadblocks.

I hear over 60% of males in Nigeria below 32 now wear dreadlocks or overgrown hair.

Nigerians are some of the funniest people in the world.

You won't pay your light bills, the local DISCO comes and disconnects you, and then you go and attach charm to prevent the DISCOS from doing their jobs.

Meanwhile, because of people not paying their bills, DISCOS and GENCOS don't have money to make thing work better, to improve generation, to fix stuff.

So, we continue in darkness.

The sad thing is that religion is co-opted into this mess.

fattbabakay:
So, I’m just feeling jobless today and I feel like summarizing the experience I had with Sars some days back. It’s nothing serious, I just feel like writing. Sit back, it’s going to be a very long and boring (ironical) epistle.

Disclaimer: This is a true-life experience, no fiction. Ignore the comic relief that might make it seem unserious, it’s just my style of writing.

Nevertheless, I had my SARS experience, want to know how it went down? Grab popcorn. Read along.

It was a sunny afternoon filled with loads of unreasonable news, monkey swallowed money yen yen yen, a bunch of weed smokers feeding the nation with fantasies. I was just thumbing through the ridiculous news when she said: “Where can we go today?” (You don’t need to worry about “she”).

As Lagos is a city with many interesting places, a couple of ideas flashed through my head, well, Lekki Conservation Centre doesn't sound like a bad place to have a whale of time, I concluded. I ran to the bathroom.

Fast forward to few minutes after, I was Dressed to a tea, dressed for a tea or dressed to go to a tea, whichever!

I fired up my uber app and the request went through. The app showed that the driver was 2 minutes away. I stayed outside for several minutes for the uber driver who claimed he was outside but was on the third street, damn! He was stuffed in the estate.

You know how frustrating it is when you order an Uber driver that doesn’t know how to easily navigate through google maps. He got lost like 3 times before God finally tapped him like “son, stop wandering, that is the way”.

I bounced into the Toyota Camry with my cold Smirnoff, it was such a nice car with probably a newly refilled air condition cos the car was too damn cold.

Can I start the trip now? The UBER driver asked. Yes sure, I replied. I wonder why they ask that question anyway, sey you won’t start trip before?



It was barely 5 minutes into the trip, just along Lekki-Epe Expressway, right after Jakande, that ShopRite side. A bus careened passed my car, like police pursuing thief, loaded with 7 well-dressed men, all waving at my driver to pull over. Poor driver, he gave in too fast, not even some fast and furious moves to make it adventurous . He packed.

SARS? How did you know? The writing is on the wall! My sixth sense yelled at me.

But they said they don’t visit this part of Lagos? But why would they stop mine out of 100s of cars flying along this path? What an unlucky day!



I was literally caught between Scylla and Charybdis as loads of thoughts flashed through my mind. A knock on the window brought me back to reality.

Who are you? A question directed at my driver. He innocently replied, “I am an uber driver”. The SARS officer moved away from him with that “I have no business with you” look and then turned to me. “Young man, kindly step down”, he said.

Prior to this day, I’ve heard a lot about SARS, all of which were bad testimonies, but I never had an encounter with them. Even though there’s no skeleton in my cupboard, but the fear of the testimonies those Twitter users summarised wouldn’t just make me think straight.

And the way Gebu, my talkative friend, summarised the slap they gave him when they caught him, I wouldn’t imagine it. One Twitter user even said they bundled him like rice into their car without asking any question. Another one said they gave him 12 slaps on his left cheek and 5 on his right cheek, I was now wondering, who counted the slaps?



They should sha not slap me on my right cheek, cos the big pimple there is just getting ripe and I don’t want any SARS slap to burst pimple for me. I thought to myself.

I stepped out of the car, with anxiety, coupled with my dear Smirnoff as I sipped some drops just to feign confidence. You know if you are sipping Smirnoff and talking to them it’ll give them that “e sure for me” and “I don’t care” impression.

He led me towards their bus, I saw 5 men standing in front, waiting for me. At this point, my eyes were bigger than my mouth! Why so many of you bruh? Just one man is enough to handle me, why so much stress, I’m harmless! I cried inside as I played MI - Action Film in my head. I could feel my spirit consoling me already like “bro, we gonn be alright, whatever happens, I’m gonn be with you, stay strong”.



I adjusted my saggy trouser as I charged forward.

---

SARS OFFICER: Hello gentleman, I am officer ********* (He showed his ID), how are you doing?

Shocked! The SARS I heard about don’t greet politely like this, I was thinking they greet with slaps and aggression. I wondered.

ME: I’m good thanks.

SARS OFFICER: Sorry for stopping you. You understand what is going on in the country now. Crimes, cultism and all. And we are trying our best to put an end to that. Can you spare few minutes of your time, please?

ME: Yea sure, I understand.

*Sips Smirnoff to catch my breath*

SARS OFFICER: We saw you making a call while in the car, can you tell us who you were calling?

*At this point I got to know it was the sight of iPhone X through the window while I was making call that made them follow my car, nice*



ME: Yea right. I saw a missed call on my device and I tried dialling the number but I later realized the number was that of the uber driver.

SARS OFFICER: How do I believe that? Can I have your phone to confirm?

*Hmmm. Nice gimmick to get hold of my phone and search through. That’s smart and creative. I’m impressed. Unlike the ones that use slaps and John Cena smackdown to collect phone from boys.*

ME: Sure. Have it.

*I handed my phone over with humility. Probably just trying to avoid that pimple-bursting slap*

He gave the phone to another officer deep inside the bus to do his work (search thoroughly) and dragged me away from the bus for some time-wasting questions. So at this point, he started asking me loads of friendly questions while giving the other officer enough time to take my phone to the moon for an x-ray scan and come back.

The conversation goes thus:

SARS OFFICER: Where are you from?

[b]ME: **** State

SARS OFFICER: Where in **** state?

ME: I don’t know. I’ve never been there. Cos there’s actually nothing to do there.

SARS OFFICER: What does your dad do? What does your mum do?

ME: Dad is a *****. Mum is a ******.

SARS OFFICER: What do you do?

As an internet marketer, this is a very trickish question as things we do are somewhat difficult to explain to a layman. How do you explain that you work on Fiverr, you are into freelancing, you work for white people, but you have no office. Or tell them you’re into importation so they can ask if you pay custom duties. Or tell them you trade bitcoins so the argument of whether bitcoin is legal in Nigeria or not can begin.

It might actually lead to no harm but would rather prolong the matter and lead to more questions. So in order to beat this, I decided to avoid my major work (freelancing) and gave them an easier option that was easier to comprehend.

ME: I am a blogger. And a web developer.

SARS OFFICER: Web developer? Can you design phishing sites? And bank clones?

*Lol. Trying to put words in my mouth.*

ME: I’ve not done such before. Designing those kind of sites is morally questionable. But there’s no kind of site that I can’t design, technically speaking.

SARS OFFICER: Do you have any ID? To justify your work?

ME: I only have a school ID. I’m a student. But I don’t even have the ID here with me. But I can show you a scanned copy of my company registration document.

SARS OFFICER: Anyone can have a scanned copy. How do you want to prove what you do for a living?

ME: I own a couple of websites, like 4. I can give you the links so you can check, you’ll see my name right in the footer.

SARS OFFICER: How do we believe the name is yours since you have no ID?

ME: Google the name, you’ll see my face and phone number, call the number, my phone will ring.

SARS OFFICER: Okay let’s check!

*He gave me his phone and he discovered I wasn’t reluctant to google it, so he told me to bother not*

He looked at the other officer on the bus and it was obvious he was still busy with my phone. My heart cut a bit as I took few seconds to think of “what might be incriminating on my device”, I couldn’t think of any. Plus, if he had found anything he would have called my attention.

To buy the phone searcher more time, he continued..

SARS OFFICER: So, have you been to Malaysia before?

ME: No. At all.

SARS OFFICER: But the chain on your neck is Malaysian gold.

ME: *Which Malaysian chain, I thought* Noo. Chain that in my hometown from local aboki.

SARS OFFICER: How many carat is it?

ME: I have no idea. *I don’t fight kungfu*

SARS OFFICER: Where do you stay?

ME: Lekki here. Just at the next junction.

SARS OFFICER: Do you know ********** ?

He mentioned a name. I’ve heard the name a couple of times. It’s the name of a popular G boy in Lekki.

ME: No. Where is that?

SARS OFFICER: Never mind.

Probably getting tired at this point, he went back to the bus to ask the other officer what’s the update.

He told me to enter the bus and sit in a strategic position that makes me face 3 of them. Then he started his own interview.

SARS OFFICER: What are international numbers doing on your WhatsApp?

*Sebi it was call log you wanted to confirm, how did it get to WhatsApp again. I thought. So I finally have to explain the freelancing I didn’t want to explain*.

ME: Oh okay. I work as a digital marketer online on freelance sites like Fiverr (Looking lost, they probably didn’t know the meaning. I knew it would be hard to explain). So I write contents and develop websites for white people. If you go through our WhatsApp conversation you’ll notice it was all about strange web technology terms and SEO content delivery, nothing more.

He didn’t argue. Definitely went through the chats himself.

SARS OFFICER: I saw a complaint from a white man on your Facebook, saying he paid for a book and you scammed him.

ME: No, it was just a misunderstanding. He paid for one of my books, but the payment was via PayPal. Due to PayPal issues, payment was delayed and didn’t get to me for a couple of days for whatever reason, but he had no chill. I didn’t reply him on Facebook cos he sent the same message to my mail and we settled it there.

SARS OFFICER: What book do you sell?

ME: I have written like 4 books on various subjects that I sell.

SARS OFFICER: What are you doing with roughly 15 emails on one device?

ME: I create them for different purposes. No blackhat intention. You can just go through the inbox.

Okay. They looked at each others’ eyes, nothing more. For my mind, I was like “can i leave now? Chop buster”...

The officer at the entrance of the bus signalled a “come out of the bus” as the driver fires up the engine.

“Thanks for your time. Don’t join them o”... The officer said as I bounced out of the bus with relief, I cut the mustard!



It was at this point I realized I’ve been unconsciously holdiSmirnoffar smirnoff since. Ooops, the right time to take a deep gulp. I threw away the can.

It was a sugar-sweet experience that changed my mentality. Leaving aside the fact that they wasted 20 minutes of my life.

I’m having the feeling that I came across the lenient SARS, not the ones I’ve been hearing of. Probably because it was on the island and they know they have to be careful on there as most people on the island are elites.

Or is it safe to say if you don’t have any skeleton in your cupboard, you are always free? Or I was just lucky to have escaped at least one slap?

What do you think?

Lagos is not a step ahead of every state in Nigeria, do not make ridiculous generalisation with your very limited knowledge .
Lagos of course is one of the most populous city in Nigeria and at such Man power is readily available but never mistake that for actual development.
A lot of states in Nigeria are way ahead of Lagos in technological advancement when we compute the average ratio of population, land and vicinity and the rate of technology accrued to each region.

This year March, I traveled outside Nigeria to look for greener pastures and I came back home by December I and my family was happy until when I saw I love message she has always sent to a certain man and i was angry. I questioned her. she said she was joking with the man and I told her that I am not happy about it. She promised not to do it again, I was able to read her message because we exchanged our phone and her messenger was in my phone.

Some days after, when I was ready to go back to my base, we prepared and she accompanied me to the park where i boarded a vehicle to Lagos and she went back home, while I was in the vehicle I notice a message from the messenger it was I love message from the guy and my wife responded the she love her to and they communicated and exchanged pictures.

I am heart broken I never knew that she could continue cheating on me. I asked her who was the guy she is charting with she told me that he is a colleague that he is making some inquiry. My wife lied to me. Before I could take the screenshot she has deleted the messages. I want to divorce her for this but we have 3 kids they are very young 6, 4 and 2 years how will this kids cope?
