Top Illegal Activities Nigerians Involve in to Make Money With Reasons

Nigerians tend to be one of the most creative set of human beings ever created by the creator. Whenever there is a difficulty or change in living conditions such as circulation of wealth, availability of job opportunities and other conditions including Natural disasters. Africans have a high possibility of surviving. Taking a review back during the World Trade by Barter tragedy, Nigerians still stood to survive torture and oppression.

Apart from being strong naturally, Nigerians are lovers of wealth, fame, Mansions, and Ladies. Yea ladies "we have passion for ladies even before our birth". This unending love and strength has paved way for young Nigerians to hustle no matter how hard it turns out to be. "Any which way na way".

Have you ever taken your time to study an African? you would notice that there is jealousy towards what others have. Jealousy is in the blood of a Nigerian, Few months back a friend of mine who traveled abroad for over 6-years finally returned and God blessing him, he was well to do but no sooner he came, jealousy aroused in the neighborhood.

An average black man is Lazy. All they do is waste their time on worthless things like flirting, Cultism and other acts. Wealth according to an African man is not by labor but favor, I do hear some pastors leading such prayer points. Turning Christianity into a business so some pastors do

Recently there are a few acts performed by Nigerians and other citizens from other African countries to make money. Lets give a review on it.

Illegal Traveling: This is the main thing that has suddenly appeared to be popular despite the hundreds of people dying everyday. A 15-years old boy who still haven't graduated from secondary school can still pack his bags and get ready to travel by land to European countries through Libya.

Over 500 Nigerians leave the country each day to head to a destination they have never been to, with no clue of what will happened on the way whether its death, sickness or even slavery. 

Internet Fraudulence: This again has taken good souls. Back then it was more of a secret activity which you never dare mention in public but in this recent money seeking generation, everybody now take part to the extent of Police men arresting every individual found with a laptop. Internet fraudulence was once an act of wisdom or internet know how but now its a demonic act due to individuals partaking in spiritual cleansing. Its a game of deceit. be wise!
Fake Ministries and Pastors: Nigeria is a total reality of the dooms day. why i said so!, in the Bible it was said that at the time of rapture fake prophets will be everywhere preaching and deceiving people. Everybody want fame. Women are the most victim of this due to them always wanting prayers and miracles everywhere. Just like i said Earlier, Christianity is now a source of wealth.

Most fake prophets sleep around with married and single women, mislead them through fake words and prophecies, steal their money indirectly and many other illegal things has so far attached a negative name on the church.

Stealing and Kidnapping: Few months back at about 3 am on a Friday a was in the setting room busy trying to write an article and others sleeping, A co-human broke my room window and stole my phone. Tried to steal others but i came before he could. That is a human like you and i. this believe of easy things has not only led in to stealing but kidnapping also.

A popular woman in my town was kidnapped by co-humans and up till now to trace of her, Its been over 5-years now. Just so you know Kidnapping is more of a business now. But i know one day they will all be vindicated.


What actually lead to all these? why do Nigerians suffer from co-Nigerians? who are the actual thieves? do you have to violate others just to be wealthy? lets take a review..

Top Reasons Why Nigerians Involve in Illegal Act to Make Money

Every action in life has a reason behind it. They can either be a personal problem or a general problem for all.

African's Captured Traveling Illegally

Laziness; "Make haste while the Sun Shine" this some Nigerians don't know and don't even care to know. Laziness is not just an act of not being able to build a good future but an act to destroying a bright futures. Laziness is the reason why educated Nigerian youths find it hard to build up an entrepreneurship business and the teenagers refuse to attend schools.

While are parents not paying attention to their children's personal life. Most Nigerian parents should actually be blamed for this. "train up a child the way he should go". Up till now many parents don't know their children's well being. Exposing them to the harsh and wicked attitude of the world.

Negative Sense of Creativity; A Nigerian can invent harmful things without even thinking. Starting with the baby generation, though babies worldwide are destructive, Non is as destructive as a Nigerian child. This spirit grows with them and lead them into creating destructive materials

Creativity has led Nigerians into various dooms. I once set nail trap for a Mercedes car that was always driving pass my street. That is our spirit. Nobody wants his/her neighbor to become wealthy but they want the fame and all the good. A Nigerian pray louder when it comes to killing witches in church. But when it comes to good prayers of worship, praises and thanksgiving please don't call a  Nigerian.

Love of  Money; "The love of money is the beginning of Evil". Money is good and useful but love of it is bad." its kills" Many are dead, many are dying and many are awaiting death because of money and fame. If you are a Nigerian you should know that the main reason why people die recently is not because they were sick but mainly through the uncertain route of Libya.

The latest and most expensive cars are owned either by blacks or Africans. The ladies main edge is love for already made rich boys, Even if it requires prostitution they will do it.

Illiteracy & Ignorance; Illiteracy is a burning sword, drilling the life in humans and leaving them as empty vessels. Back then during the slave trade it was illiteracy up till now it's still illiteracy. Education to teenagers has become old fashion. Nobody wants to attend school. Uromi experienced a large number of young once leaving the country without a sound educational background.

I will also include ignorance because many family members have been lost to the bloody rivers of Libya but still Parents sponsor their teenage children to Libya all for money.

I won't fail to mention the most blamed cause for all the problems in the society. Government has played a huge role in ensuring Nigerian's obtain sound education and live well with a paying Job but actually its a revise. Politics has killed the Democracy of the country. An elder said on our way to Kogi."In Nigeria there is no average man, its either you are extremely rich or extremely poor"

Politicians keep on selling off  the opportunities for the dirt and rats in the streets. It's a one way affair, this is as a result of the wickedness of men and the deep rooted corruption in the country.

Ways to End this In Human Act my Humans.

We always feel like "i want" "i need" what about the person that doesn't have at all. Lets learn to do away with many of our bad habits. How do you expect the country and government to be good when you are busy stealing, cheating and killing co-humans.

Get rid of jealousy, Pride and Love of money. Every human should be jealous yes i know my dad once said something sensitive "When you are jealous don't be destructive rather appreciate what others have" you might not see this as a fact but it is. When you think about destroying others you forget to claim your's. Lets learn to help each out and forget about who is richer. Wealth is from within.

Abduct  love for education, ignore quick ways to do things. "Patience is the one great path to success". If ever you will be rich and famous you will so take things easy and in the right way. For everything you do in this world, have already been crafted by the Creator.

Death is the end of everything, your struggles, your labor, your everything. "He that looses his soul for the treasures of the world is vanity". So why the horry, spend is no test for success. Lets all avoid quick ways like internet fraudulence, Illegal trafficking and lots more. "Face life in it's front page"r.

Though the government can not do anything but "Leaders let the young ones grow" stop misusing the country's assets, stop stealing from the soul of each Nigerian. Get rid of corruption within yourself and that of the world will eradicate itself. "A thousand steps started with a step be that first step"

This is why i earlier said Nigerians are Interesting. One of the richest countries in resources, One of the strongest man power, Creative Intelligence but still no Peace, Love, Understanding and Patience.

Reasons Why You Should Shop Online in Nigeria | E-commerce

Shopping is one thing every Nigerian want to do every minute of the day, whether the resources are there or not we just want to shop. Buying is actually ideal for you because apart from having to brush your teeth, tub and likely consume your meals, its the top hobby that hold you refreshed and happy. I additionally located that most ladies tend to go for shopping whenever they are sad or concerned as it help overlook painful emotional feelings like heartbreak and many more.

Before now back in the 80s, buying and selling was referred to as a meeting of two in a place to make an agreement on a product but as time went on it became more hectic and emphasized. Markets are always jam-packed both supermarkets, shops and trading centers. This is bad and unsafe for various reasons which i will elaborate on a little for you understanding.

Markets are Unhealthy : Aside from the supermarkets, trading centers are always dirty due to the high number of people disposing refuses at a time. This is bad for your health as its easy to get contaminated with malaria and other deadly and common diseases.

Easy Transfer of Infection : In 2014/2015 Nigeria and other African countries suffered an outbreak of a deadly virus (Ebola) which could end a human's life within a week. And how was this virus transferred?, through body contact, making it easy for one victim to spread it to almost a hundred persons in the market.

Corrupted Price System: In a market system pricing is essential due to sellers making a way with customers money. They love cheating especially when you are new in the market. So this brings up corruption which has so far dis-valued trust and sincerity in the market system. Fake goods are also common in this buying and selling system.

I have just listed a few reasons why going to the market is unsafe and unhealthy but i haven't written about time cost. According to advanced studies, whenever you are making decisions, time, comfort, safety, interest should be put into consideration. Everybody should be employed yes but how do you now get what you want when you are always busy at work?.

This is why most persons take going to market for shopping as a hard activity especially in large and highly populated cities like Lagos where traffic and bad roads will destroy your car before you go back home. How do you as a celebrity, whose where about is always gossiped by bloggers? am sure you won't find comfort in that.

What should i now do to find this comfort in shopping what ever i need. How do i prevent myself from getting contaminated by the diseases and insects in the market? How can i as a celebrity hide my face from the hash sun, rain and not to think of the gossip bloggers?. Well its easy just read on.

How/Where to Find Comfort in Shopping

It is really not easy to cope with all these market wahala. That is why i find it important to let you know as a Nigerian that you can stay inside your room, bathroom, car, any where even your office maybe probably on your way to Abuja and shop. You can shop anywhere and get your products without any stress. Now lets check out things what Online shopping or Online store will do for us.

Places where you can order for anything you want, phones, Laptops , Clothes and even furniture. Nigeria has lot of online shops that will deliver goods at your door step with just a call or clink at a product. It is safety ready because all the products  have years of warranty can be 1 - 5 years depending on the product.

Isn't that amazing. You may ask if it is comfortable and easy yes it is. Lets have a brief description of an online store.

E-commerce (additionally written as e-commerce, eCommerce or online store), short for electronic trade, is buying and selling of products or services through the use of laptop networks, together with the net. electronic trade attracts on technologies which includes cellular commerce, digital funds switch, supply chain control, net advertising and marketing, on-line transaction processing, Electronic statistics interchange (EDI), stock management structures, and automated data series structures. modern digital trade typically uses the world huge net for at the least one part of the transaction's life cycle, even though it can also use different technology including email.

Why you Should Shop Online (E-Commerce)

I already discussed with you above the main problems faced when buying things in the market and supermarkets and this is the exact reason why we are looking for an alternative. Before we can see E-commerce as an alternative, It's functions have to out-rule the problems faced in the local marketing system. Lets make a review to see if it really suit our needs.

Time Cost: If you studied economics then you should be used to this word. Just as it says "time waits for no man". The hours you spend in the market is more like waste of useful time. Whenever i followed my beautiful mother to the market, we would spend a lot of time pricing from here to there and at the end, we end up spending almost the whole day in the market preventing us from doing other planned important activities.

Now tell me how many minutes will you  spend buying things online. It won't take anything. You can cook, buy, sell and still watch a movie at the same time saving you useful time.

Corrupted Price System: Every seller wants to make more than his/her actual profit leading them into cheating buyers. Some sellers even end up loosing customers due to this but what about you in a horry to buy things, how will you then know the actual price of what you are buying.

With E-commerce being the modern deal for buying and selling you can get anything you want at a cheaper rate saving for you extra money for other relevant products.

Health and Infections: Have you ever heard of someone contacting any form of infection through the internet? if you have na witch b that. I earlier discussed how infections can be transferred easily in markets due to the jam-packed nature of the market and the dirt, refuse in the trading scene leading to various infections most common is malaria.

But in an online scenario everything is healthy for you. The only dirt and refuse problem you might face is adverts and every internet user should not see that as a treat. Nigeria has large and widely distributed online shops with lot of products at its disposal.

Goods are transported to your home in respective of your location in the country. Items are delivered on time leaving no trace of delay though the platform you choose matters a lot. Also in other African countries. Online shops are everywhere. Stay at home, play around, go on a date, spend the whole day at the office while someone is busy buying you the best items.

I have just discussed with you important things you should consider when wanting to shop. This is not discouraging marketing, marketing is good as you tend to choose your products according to how you want it but for your own comfort and time usage, Online shopping dives in to suit you.

Best Blogging Platforms For Beginners | Bloggers Guide

If you have been keeping up with my posts on bloggers guide then you should understand the term "Blogging Platform' but if you didn't start with us then read my previous article on How to choose the best blogging platform. Just visit my Episode one (How to become successful in blogging) on bloggers guide to get a good knowledge on starting a successful blog.

All blogging platforms are basically free except you want more uniqueness in your domain e.g from www.ohenscrib.blogspot.com to www.ohenscrib.com.  Platforms vary in different quality especially when it comes to the look (template/ theme for pro bloggers) customization and other imitating characteristics. But they are quite similar when it comes to post writing dashboard.

Best Platforms to Run Your Amazing Blog

A normal approach towards this might appear a bit confusing but am sure if you have read other articles on bloggers guide you should find it easy to understand as you will be used to terms written here. I wont rate any platform above another, its just going to be a review and after reading this as a beginner this choice is entirely yours.

Now lets kick on with the review. Read well and carefully and at this moment assume everything thing about blogging was a lie to enable you make the right decision about the best blogging platform.

Blogger.com

Blogger is an amazing blogging platform for you as a beginner. It was developed by Pyra labs but now owned by web search engine "Google' as it was bought by them in 2003. Its a free and flexible platform with its sub-domain as blogspot.com. 

With blogger you can run up to 100 blogs per account and can also change your domain name from www.yourname.blogspot.com to www.yourname.com by just registering your default domain with a custom domain service like Hostgator. Despite all these amazing features, few bloggers led a complain on it not being reliable as it is owned by google which has been seen to shut down platforms without giving any information about it.

Aside the above problem blogger is awesome and can be used to power many types of blogs from fashion blogs, lifestyle blogs and also news or gossip blog. Linda Ikeji a popular News and Celebrity blog in Nigeria, Jide of Ogbonge blog (one of Nigeria's biggest tech blogs) and the Londoner a British lifestyle blog uses blogger to power their blog.

Blogger.com offers many more features like template customization, widgets or gadget and many more. If you are choosing blogger.com platform to power your blog then you probably read my article on blogger.

WordPress.com

WordPress is a popular platform which was established in 2003 by Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little. quite the most popular and widely used of recent. Just as blogger wordpress.com is free of charge and easy to run. Most WordPress users claim that its the most simple and easy to understand platform for beginners. Well i still don't agree but lets leave that for you to decide.

But just like blogger, WordPress.com have a problem which Pro bloggers (Professional Bloggers) argue about. This time its not about its ability to shut down anytime (though its still very possible) rather its about its limitations. I don't know much about WordPress but in the past i wanted to start my platform with them but i had a lot of problem with its limitations.

When you run a free blog on WordPress.com with its sub-domain as www.yourname.wordpress.com, your customization is limited to a few available WordPress themes which can either be categorized as free or premium (for sale).

Aside that problem above WordPress.com is easy to use as you don't have to know anything about coding before you can manage it. Its all about WordPress plugins which can be easily installed with just a few clicks.

WordPress.Org

At first i didn't want to share this blogging platform among this category but after thinking of it i decided to add it. all the list are free blogging platform but wordpress.org is quite the opposite. Following the name alone you should know its still owned by Matt Mullenweg and Mike Little.

So why creating this after having an amazing platform. Well if you read the little problems in wordpress.com (limitations). Then this is the solution for it. Now lets make a review. Wordpress.org in Brief is the paid type of Wordpress.com. Meaning it is more of a website as the process for getting it requires registering or buying a domain with custom domain service like Bluehost.

And installing the WordPress.org in the server. Its not actually tedious but i think it needs some technical know how to gain full knowledge of it. NaijaStories a popular Nigeria story telling blog, BBC America news website, Sony Music and Beyonce owned by popular singer and song writer Beyonce Knowles uses WordPress to power their blog or website.

As i earlier said its a cure to Wordpress.com but that doesn't mean everything come with the domain name. Despite paying for a domain and server, Most themes and Plugins still requires payment as they were not all designed by WordPress but that doesn't mean you can not create you own theme.

I won't fail to mention Wordpress.org is very good in terms of SEO (Search Engine Optimization) as it allows you install lots of plugins that should boost your SEO. Plugins like All in One SEO pack and many others which you will soon discover.

Tumblr.com 

Tumblr is another great service which was created by David Karp at a time blogger and WordPress were head to head. But its more of a micro-blogging and social networking platform. It was founded in February 2007 and is now quite know with Yahoo its owner. 

Well it quite got its popularity from its uniqueness from blogger and WordPress which is its multimedia support and short form blogging style. It being owned by Yahoo has a bit made it more of an advertising site. I once opened a blog there which i never really made use of as i  already opened this one Ohens Crib.

Now just like blogger and WordPress lots of bloggers also use Tumblr to power their site. I ran into one today lagosphotos.tumblr.com and also top sites like ghostphotographs.tumblr.com, willitbeard.tumblr.com  uses tumblr.com to power there sites. Among all of the sites i have come across, they are mainly art and socialism blogs, i think that's what tumblr favors more. Though i didn't mention earlier, tumblr is free and has a sub-domain as .tumblr.com.

Joomla.org

Joomla which was founded on August 17th 2005 till today is known as one of the best free platforms due to its inability to shut down unexpectedly. It is quite dependable or as you would say reliable. Joomla is an advanced CMS (Content Management System) used by mainly developers in publishing some of the websites which could also be blogs we see on the web.

Now Joomla which uses extensions in its designs and functionality is to me friendly as it has a lot of its software used for free by its users unlike WordPress that sells it plugins. Many bloggers and website owners use Joomla for a lot of things which i will emphasize on in my article on Joomla.

I have just listed and explained some of the best blogging platforms for beginners and if you still haven't found the platform of your choice, then you should read comments on the comment box below but Bloggers who have other details about free blogging platforms.

As a pro blogger reading this am sure you know placing comments helps in promoting your blog so do use the comment box and share other platforms for beginners to read. Sharing is Caring Friends.
