The interviewer is right jare. In 2018, most people in Nigeria spend their days riding giraffes and hunting lions. They have no concept of money, time and culture. Yesterday, when I heard an aircraft pass overhead, I thought it was the gods keeping watch over me. All hail King Julien. 88 Likes 1 Share |

Midway through the chat, she was asked if her books are read in Nigeria. "You'll be shocked to know that they are, yes... They are read and studied, not just in Nigeria but across the continent of Africa," she said. The interviewer then followed up by asking if there were bookshops in the country. The audience gasped and the visibly embarrassed journalist tried to back up, explaining that "not much is said about Nigeria in France." Thumbs up to the Pretty Lady. 15 Likes 1 Share |

Nigeria has bookshops but very few readers. Keep three books by Anthony Robbins or Zig Ziglar out in the open. No one will dare touch them. But misplace your #5 and you won't see it 5 mins later. You'll see a book seller looking all dirty; I'll be like, How can a man be selling knowledge and still be ignorant? Btw, I received joined a WhatsApp group where e-books by almost all the good authors (Christian and motivational) are being sent for easy download and reading. I intend opening mine, if interested to join my READING CLUB on WhatsApp...Send me your number. Thank you. Leaders are Readers. Consistent readers are Great Leaders. Build a future that will last by investing in books today. FREE BOOKS. 30 Likes 5 Shares |

Initially i use to try to educate them but with time i just let them wallow in their ignorance, useless things.. imagine telling them i am schooling and they will be looking at you like "wow!!" like a black man in university, like say na something astonishing! or you tell them you from africa and the only thing they can imagine is you playing with wild animals.. forget white skin, they are very ignorant! 37 Likes 2 Shares |
