Most nigerians are not into tech they just like to carry around big phones just for people to know that they can afford it. As for me I love tech and I read tech blogs but I don't usually comment, I only comment when I need to ask a question. BTW MissTechy keep up the good work i like females that are into tech ![]() ![]() |

MissTechy:Nice threat u've got here. actually, its not all Nigerian Tech bloggers dat copy & paste but majority of dem do. i like blogers dat may copy a post but remembers to modify it to suit the audience visiting their sites. i also like bloggers that are interactive and respond to comments, non-savy bloggers cant do such. do you reply massages? |

Don1Dee: One of my writers, who holds a PhD and works in Shell Houston, reduced the frequency of contribution because of poor engagement by readers. I more or less propped him to continue writing. Imagine, a foreign professor from Germany once contacted him for an article he wrote. The man disagreed with a couple of points he made in the article and sent a lengthy email for robust engagement with my guy. My friend was impressed and didn't know his readership traveled that far. Yet, people here, who are our major target audience, hardly bother to read talkless of commenting. I have lost a couple of other fine contributors due to lack of comment/engagement on their articles. It is discouraging. 2 Likes |

Unfortunately, Nigerians aren't tech savvy. We love to use those gadgets but aren't really interested in what makes them tick. We still see technology as something foreign and imported. So, it is difficult for us to feel we can contribute something meaningful. We've got to get out of this "rot" and "own" technology as producers, not consumers. I think the education system should do the heavy lifting and things will fall in place. |

BlackOnassis: In other words - TECHNOLOGY NEEDS TO BE RE-BRANDED FOR NIGERIANS AT THE ROOT LEVEL? |

Afam4eva: C'mon man. Don't say the average IQ of a Nigerian is low. If that's the case, then there is really no hope. But I doubt that's the case. Like you said, we just aren't there yet . . . but we can get there. |

MissTechy: Nice Observation. I think it is the way we are wired. SUN/PUNCH/VANGUARD newspaper sell more copies than Business Day and other tech related newspaper or magazine. CNN/BBC have more viewers than History Channel or NatGeo. People are emotional being with empathy and envy. The girl next door is more interested in what is happening in Kim K life, her new dress sense blah blah blah than and the guys are more interested in sports (football) than business and tech. Stories about their favourite stars are NEWS with more deeper connection than business or tech stories. |

MissTechy: That answers one of my questions... That means your blog doesn't earn yet... You have a 9-5 job that's how you finance your giveaways... |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Hate Commenting On Tech Blogs? by MissTechy(f): 6:47pm On May 28, 2015 |
GodMode: Hmmn, for you to figure out the 9-5 part, you are really smart - anyways that is my little way of trying to make people be interested in tech |

Afam4eva: Your first statement is a wrong generalisation. An IQ quotient may or may not have anything to do with tech stuffs. |
Re: Why Do Nigerians Hate Commenting On Tech Blogs? by GodMode: 6:57pm On May 28, 2015 |
MissTechy: ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Why not spend some on FB likes... Your blog is doing well for something that started 3 months ago... Since you have a salary and still find time to blog it means you can push it higher in less than a year.. |

MissTechy: The answer to your question is because Nigerians are easily swayed by gossip and celebrity talk because the majority don't want to engage their mind on technologies nor arouse their intellect on scientific stuff. We don't have geeks and nerds community. The problem here is too enormous and boggling that any thing entertaining and exciting to the senses are what flies. The same reason they'd tune to, is the same reason they would rather read gossip talk about the participants of Big Brother Nigeria, MTN Project Fame, Maltina Dance Hall, Nigerian Idols, Super Story and those made available by Linda Ikeji, only extremely few with a penchant for tech stuff would want to read my blog about the newest Intel's kid in the block i.e. Intel's Core M processor. So sometimes I don't blame my people as I can understand the situation. How many Nairalanders ITs even visited this topic about registering .ng domain hack name ? Live evidence below and also MissTechy the link to your blog from your NL profile is incorrect. Correct it.

GodMode: I believe FB likes that are paid for is virtually useless (note my opinion) - this is because Facebook forces the ads in your faces till you click and like - so these audiences don't like it because of their own free will - more like a forced will - at the end of the day it would be harder for them to engage with your contents |
