Naija Novice Hangout {Newbies introduction & Orientation} Thread.

[Issa56]

Something I want us to talk about. I think we need to sensitize our members. That's one of the reasons I believe cryptopreneurBrainboss created this space- for us to connect and help one another. I helped one of us rank up only to find the user wearing a signature campaign that is allegedly a scam casino. I contacted this person, explained to him what awaits him if continues to wear signature and he has remove his signature. To our newbies, ask if you don't understand something. Wearing signature is cool but selling your reputation for money is not cool. Don't let ignorance get you into trouble. 

Dis one serious ooo. Why you go rank up and end up wearing a wrong signature that will cause you to lose your account; let's assume you don't know much about the forum and you don't know you are wearing a wrong signature but the person way help you rank up still contacted you but you didn't listen to the person just because of money which is very bad, what's the use of ranking up when you will still end up losing your account. Seriously, I have a lot of respect for the high-rank members here since I believe they don't care only about their money but also their reputation that's why they get to this level. Let's take @brainboss as an example; he started this thread and is also a bounty manager which most of us know, he is one of the best bounty manager that everyone knows because he always brings legit bounty and all his bounty are always paying am really proud of him because he is from my country, I believe there will be a lots of scam projects that will be approaching him but he is always rejecting them if he only cares about his money he will definitely accept those project and he will collect his money and he won't care if bounty hunters get paid but he always make sure he goes for legit projects and he also try his best to make sure all the bounty hunters get paid. I believe we should all learn from people like him, no be always we suppose dey after money make we make sure say we protect our reputation too, make we no dey allow money ruin our reputation.

Wetin you expect, na Nigerian be dis dem sabi spoil everything and the worst part dem go drag u down with them. Anyways e better you just ignore anything wey dey go on because nothing you fit do abi you wan be snitch come dey exposed them? Like just looking you go know say so many irregularities dey go on but best wey you fit do na to disassociate yourself from the parole and just dey ur lane.

U no need sell urself out to make money, sure you fit double your hustle (if you know wetin I mean) but do am wisely so if problem come you go get backing. No need selling your reputation, infact if you get way fit build am you do because e really worth am. With better reputation, you go dey above your peers and they roll with the big boys because normally dat kind benefits dey here somehow.

Bitcoin or naira, bitcoin is falling

The bear market been dun start since but people no go gree believe am, na so e happen for 2017, no think say because metaverse and NFT dey trend and pour money into the industry say market no go fit do wetin dey e mind. Infact when market crash for 2017 na when crowdfunding (ICO) become a thing like the hype been much people think say market no fit crash again. Just use your head, stablecoin better pass fiats but be in the look at as e better you dey dollars cost average your buys along the corrections.

[Dbdhsgsgsvddv]

@CryptopreneurBrainboss sir thank you for telling the truth. I have think to do not convert to naira because naira is sinking price, see the usa dollar going low but getting higher than naira because naira is going lower. It is time to be patient and buy bitcoin again at the right time later, I will seek half of it, naira is 575 to dollar now.

You know approach is everything, and unfortunately some kind people get short term approach to this forum so dem nor really care if na scam casino signature dem wear or not because to them na just money dem they find. If you have a long term approach to this forum, you go avoid anything wey go dey defamatory to your profile like negative trust that comes from joining scam campaigns. As an advice to all newbies for this our corner, try dey think long term.

I I honestly think the choice is your either be it bitcoin or niara and I no understand you, the thing be if your naira dey bank or where ever you dey put am its fixed your 100 naira for example for you bank go remain 100naira except your Bank cut charges so e no dey volatile like Bitcoin, but the thing be say e dey drop value, the thing wey you go use that 100 naira buy now when e drops value e no go fit buy am again, as for me I only convert Bitcoin to naira when I have to.

Thank you I will like to use stable coin like USDT now, it is like dollar, it is good than naira. I can prefer gold this time, like gold back cryptocurrencies but I do not know how I can invest in it. I can decide to convert to bitcoin back in increase price time.

When you dey talk naira, my body just do me like say, you dey reason before to cash your btc back to naira then, you go live am for bank account or you go live am for any platform way list NGN. That for be big error o. Via say, na NGN fiat wey dey use for this side no mean say, we go dey trust am and ecf, e no suppose dey turn up for online matter cef because e no follow. Naira no function as stable coin dey do. Naira too dey fall and na so the lose you been wan avoid dey count kwa. No dey reason naira, you fit try USD but, forget naira for this kind matter, e cast.

Though, that conversion to stable coin, e no too sure now for me o because, e be like btc don fall finish con enter ranging market. E go climb later buy e fit take small time. If you convert now, you fit dey loose. Na when e dey up, you for convert. That na if you plan use am buy again when e go dey down like this.

Plan now for Nigeria's population explode

I will make this very short and brief. In 1960, Nigeria's population was 45 million while Britain's population was 52 million. In 2021, Britain's population was estimated to be 62 million when Nigeria's population has crossed over 200 million. 400 million was estimated to be our population in 2050 while 791 million by 2100 respectively.

I remembered the Mcmillian map I used when I was in senior secondary school, probably 2006 was used in the mad, Nigeria was the 11th most populous country in the world, now the 7th since some years back. If the rate Nigeria is increasing in population is not controlled, it was esitmated that we will be the third most populous country in the world by surpassing United States by 2050.

I noticed the developed countries are not increasing so much in population unlike Africa generally, like Nigeria and Ethiopia. You can check this. Obviously for United States and Japan. This could probably be as a result of uneducated fellow that preferred to just give birth to many children without being about to cater for them.

Would increasing population be later coumtrolled in Nigeria? If not coumtrolled, would the increasing population helped the whole Nigerian economy in which quality of living will later increase? Is Nigeria a place suitable for next generations? How can the increasing population be solved with how islamism is most responsible for it (the souths are not the problem but the north that believes in marrying 3 to 4 wife's and having low education if compared to the south).

Plan now for Nigeria's population explode

The hardship in the country is spreading like a virus that is making every family consider the number of children they will give birth to. Of recent, in southern and Eastern Nigeria no family want to give birth to children they can't train or feed due to the hardship in the country. If each family start to give birth to 2-4 children. Nigeria population won't be able to get to 400 million as estimated by 2050. But if the Northerners will be able to come to a simple understanding that is good to give birth to several children you can train, we'll be able to control the Nigeria population very well without much stress and problem

[Charles-Tim]

You meant 'if the Northerners will be able to come to a simple understanding that is good to give birth to several children you can train'. Right.

I have read an article before that the increasing population in the Southern (the South West, South East and the South South and all other states in the Southern Nigeria) is not much higher to larger extent while the Northern part of the country are the ones giving birth the most. It is the North that marry 13 year old girl and other underage female, it is them that practice polygamy family the most, it is them that mostly not taking care of the children (most especially the males).

The Northerners are not educated enough to the extent this will be possible. What the so called government should have in their plan is never in the government's agenda as well. I have read an article before in which an analyst predicted how many Nigerians will not have option than to find all possible means to leave their country for a better place (country). But we see how many Nigerians became a modern slave to people in Libya and how many are dying in the Mediterranean Sea while trying to make it to Europe. I am still wondering how the future might be worse (but I wish it would not)

The level of illiteracy and government negligence could result to higher population with increasing low standard of living. Nigeria in some years back surpassed India in the high poverty level and became the first in the world with people that are living below poverty level and yet with increasing population.

Stories of people travelling out of the country through the Mediterranean sea is so scary and touching. The agonies and pains they do encounter through the desert, I wouldn't wish my enemies that. You would find our youths taking all sort of risks to make it out of life, to at least bring their family out of poverty.
Everyone wants to japa from the country cos they believe there's a bigger opportunity out there than here. I keep blaming our leaders for the type of hardship they have caused.
What is killing the north is their religious beliefs. The uneducated northerner are ones practicing and taking their religion to the heart while the educated ones uses them as slaves to cause mayhem to the society. The North is bleeding. They are beginning to speak up for insecurity in their region. Soon their Emirs will begin to speak against the number of children and wives the uneducated ones have due to the hardships in the North

[Charles-Tim]

Insecurity is everywhere in Nigeria, just that it is higher in the north.

Also did you think the kings with multiple wives can speak against number of children and wives...The foundation is highly stunted.

Do not pay attention to the to what you see or hear from media about the Northern, its clearly that they are having some challenges but the media made us believe that all part of the Northern are not secured which is very wrong, I've been to so many part of the North and only few states and LGA are facing some security challenges. Media made us believe that the northerners are bad people - that's another lie, the northerners are the most peaceful people.

This is not only about what we heard on meida, it is also about what those that have been to North are talking about. And at least, I have been to the far end of Northern Nigeria for a year.

Dangote is from North, he is the richest man in Africa, also the richest black man. But while Northerners are very rich, the wealth is not well circulated among them unlike South, probably due to high uneducated Northerners.

Fulanis are learned. Aside that, Hausa is the third learned tribe in Nigeria. Also there are many tribes in Northerns that are learned but just that the rate of unlearned northerners are very high too. It was North I first saw many children in the street during school hours, what would be a shame for a mother in my Southern state.

About what I have mentioned in the earlier post, they are not wrong, they are just the truth. Or are South more responsible for the increasing population in Nigeria? Or the North?


Aside polygamy, also marrying younger age. Lack of education for many in the North would be highly responsible for this.

Nigerian senator who ‘married girl of 13’ accused of breaking Child Rights Act

The Northerners are very kind, very kind is still an understatement if comparing their kindness to Southerners, but their otherwise is worst, like herders prefer to kill someone than killing a cow. Also is the only part of the country terrorists are residing, there are many bandits in North. Also there are many state not peaceful, like Borno, Nasarawa, Plateau and Kaduna. Even Benue is regarded as party of North Central, but I just regard it as Middle Belt. Be it North Central or Middle Belt, it is not regarded among the Southern state but also North.

The media is not blowing anything out if proportion, the media is giving reports of what's happening in the north, rather its the people who can't really relate the information that's contradicting the media, I also have lived in the North, and I must say it not everywhere that's suffering from the crisis but the north is fast becoming a danger zone and that not only in community, highway roads in the north is fast becoming a kidnapper's den.

I'm dropping it like it's 🔥! Asaba blockchain conference 2021. For those of us who will be in Asaba city or around the environs, do well to attend this conference. The speakers are top notch crypto traders. We will definitely learn a thing or two from the conference. I will be there it will be nice to see a fellow Bitcointalk Community member live at the conference. Don't miss out. cryptopreneurBrainboss, igehhh and Charles-Tim I want to see you guys there oh

Yes the Northerners controls the 70% of the country resources and the fact that majority of them still live in extreme poverty has been one of the problem to solve or explain for years but IMO I think this has to do with the population of family members compared to the south. The average size of Southern family is usually 5-6 while that of the North is 20 upwards so it becomes difficult to empower individuals or families so is not like wealth is not been circulate

These are the Almajiries - children without parents or children with extreme poor parents who are not capable to feed or take care of them so instead of giving them up for adoption they are made to feed themselves. Some of them illegal immigrants from neighboring countries who left their countries and parents looking for greener pastures and end up feeding from arms
