Most people are the predicament behind themselves here in Nigeria but they blame witches and wizards that don't have their time as the cause of their predicament. Many people are fonds of not living within their limits ,hence, brings them misfortune and all lot of bad happening we are witnessing today. There is a video going viral of where a Nigerian Nollywood actress,Iyabo ojo was talking to some students who walk up to her when she went to visit her niece in school. In that video, the student walk up to her and asked her to help them with their school fees ,that it's almost closed and their parents are helpless to provide the money, she responded that if they couldn't provide for school,they should quit and go out to work, School is not by force and would not guarantee them of overcoming poverty. People started abusing her that she is too harsh on them.

That is where most of Nigerians go wrong. Why will you be in school when you know your parents can't afford it ? In this country where alot of graduate are out there jobless , a country where your certificate will be receiving A.C in the room. Why suffer yourself on something that doesn't determine your life . Parents that hardly eat three square meal will be thinking of sending their kids to institution, meaningless sufferness 🤷
My nephew once told me that a classmate of his wrote JAMB(joint Administration and Matriculation Board) exam ,he got 320 but unfortunately he couldn't go for the post-jamb in the school because of transport fare, you are also amazed right? That's the level of some people stupidity, how do you intend to send a child you can't even bare to afford transport fare to 4years program , most people put themselves in the sad situation you find them.
A girl reach out to me on Whatsapp that she has been following my handles since last year, she really wants to learn from me but she can't afford the class I posted , she continue my telling me the history of her life ,how she has lost her dad and it has only be hee mum and her ,her uncles are not ready to help. She has really wished to learn catering ,she told me she venture into prostitution just to gather money for the catering school but she later backed out when one of them died.
I told her to go into any dangerous or bad act at her own risks, nobody but her would be blame, she should go out and work as a sales rep or teach in a school to gather money, then come to enrol in my pastry online class ,where she can learn common snacks that can be sold in her area and forget about physical class for now, physical class requires alot of money,its not just about the class fee, she wont be able to fund the practical bills . Using this ,she will make snacks early in the morning, distribute to schools, shops that can sell at a discounted price,so they can also profit form it and as well go to where she work. At the end ,she get money from two sides,then she can save up from it before deciding to go for physical class because that is how I started, I did not start from where I am now, I did everything stages by stages as I am financially.
You will see girls that has wig of #100,000 or iPhone of #800,000 still be in your DM begging for 2,000,me that I don't have wig of #30,000,you think I don't like it? I don't have because I know my capabilities, I live within my limits, I don't do beyond what I can afford.
We can only eradicate poverty if everyone live within their limits.
