October 20, 2020 #EndSARS #LekkiTollGateMassacre

October 20, 2020.

I was at work by 4PM. I joked about joining the #LekkiTollGateProtesters

I told my WhatsApp contacts that i could trek to meet them. A friend and mentor advised me not to but i was torn. I wanted to go. We are fighting a good cause, I thought.

We will be safe, I thought. Some of them were even holding Nigerian flags(following a fake rumour that they will be safe with the Nigerian flag). How wrong we've been proven.

7PM October 20, 2020, I was awake at work. I heard gunshots and sirens.

I turned into @djswitch_ live to confirm what my ears where telling me.

I thought I was watching an American movie as Nigerians fought for their lives on IG live.

The government denied October 20, 2020. My ears and eyes can't. Will yours deny those that died #LekkiTollGateMassacre

What the devil does not know is that we foresaw this a couple of years ago. We fasted and prayed for this CHANGE.

The Veil, the devilish veil covering people's eyes is gone.

What next?

You can start by checking every wrong information you want to share. Confirm every WhatsApp broadcast message you receive. Do not forward wrong information, I beg you.

I still think most of the people who were killed that night, those brave heroes had seen the false information about being saved by Nigerian flags. I believe they would have run for their lives rather than stay at the Toll gate if not for that stupid rumour sent mostly via WhatsApp broadcast messages.

Above all? Do not bury any truth about #LekkiTollGateMassacre Their labour and death shall not be in vain. Amen.

My First Day In Ikoyi Prison

Hello guys, I was led to join the Prison Ministry in my church many moons ago. I had a desire to help people in many ways by providing resources, my time, etc. Serving there has been a blessing. Ikoyi Prison Entrance My first experience at Ikoyi Prison, Falomo was enriching. I left home early to avoid the usual Third Mainland Bridge traffic so that I could make it to the Prison and join my team mates on time so I was feeling drowsy. I was surprised when my team mate said I should not worry that the sleep would disappear as soon as we step in. She was right. I forgot the sleep and was emotional all through our stay/service. Before we entered the facility, we were thoroughly searched. Azzin!! Head to toe something. No phones allowed. No sharp objects either. Then I saw the men. There were so many men. So many hungry and hopeful gazes at us. We were led to the Church, yes, there are two churches and a mosque in that facility. I was impressed an...

Customer Service Talk with Jane

The not so huge secret is out! I have been sharing some business tips on this blog but I am more passionate about Customer Service and I am very vocal about this not because of my years of experience working as a Customer Service Executive but because Nigerian vendors like to test our patience and I have experienced too much of it to ignore. I have also been hosting talks on a Whatsapp group for a while now where I share some tips and my Customer Service experience, answer questions business owners have and how to resolve customer complaints satisfactorily. I am excited to share publicly that I will be hosting another Customer Service Talk on March 6, 2022 by 8pm. Attendance is free and virtual(Google Meet) but you have to register. See link below: https://forms.gle/Jp9cTX6fTLNUzpnf6 See you there!

Don't Keep Your Customers Waiting

Feedbacks like the above aren't good for business growth as they discourage other "intending" Customers. You should not keep Customers waiting whether you own a kiosk or a conglomerate. We have terrible and incompetent policymakers in Nigeria whose policies crumble businesses, but business owners should play their part and ensure they keep their businesses afloat by keeping loyal Customers satisfied. When you satisfy your clients, they would not leave. They will bring more clients to you saving you the cost budgeted for Advertisement and Promotion. One of the parts you need to play well is to hire willing and loyal staff. I didn't believe tales of few good or employable people until I started helping employers to hire people. The labour market is not encouraging, yes, but you should keep searching. You can use job sites well, give them your requirements and pay the applicable fee needed to get what you want. You can also headhunt after proper due diligence. If you d...
