2018, I moved to Ogun state and had to seek employment in a school within my vicinity. As a Lagos teacher, I was used to a vibrant class, swift answers and mushy acts by my students. So I resumed at my new work place with that fully charged energy. The first day got me confused. I was to teach the primary classes, I started my class and it was obvious these children were not following. They could neither understand what I was saying nor did they show any bit of interest. It was then I knew I had to start from the scratch. First, I had to create a connection. I wanted them to understand that I am first their friend. I needed to set the foundation that they can have both a friend and teacher in one. After that, I came down to their level. I made them feel and appreciate every little progress they made. I built up their interest in education. We worked together, applying several strategies I discovered and created, and within some month the growth was evident. Eureka is a book that cove
I could remember vividly, i was four years old then when i started my business. I noticed my parents were struggling to feed us and since they still had other expenses to cover i knew i had to support them somehow.
My mum had just give birth to my sister Favor, i collected all her medicine bottles ( those one that looks like a feeder) i washed them all then bought milk and sugar which i mixed in a small bowl and filled them all. This i did without telling my mum because i knew she wouldn't approve of it.
I took my products to school the next day and quietly informed my classmates about it and the price, the sales i made was encouraging and i continued selling it till i had no more bottles so it ended.
Though the money realized from it wasn't that much but i was so happy i could afford matches, pencil, Biro e.t.c just to support.
I had a bank then which i owned, i called it WISDOM BANK it was the usual kolo where i do save the petty cash i got from my business, friends, and family.
As a child i was able to give proper statement of how income and expenses flows.
When i see kids hawking out there i always feel the need to help them because i understand the circumstances that warrant such action.
Do you actually know that business i started then if financial investment is made can turn out awesome.
Think of something, nothing is too weird to be a business
Children have great ideas which only need investment
If you have a children around you, you are damn lucky
Ask them for a business idea and nurture it maturely
Nigeria kids are the smartest only that they are been ignored
Invest in your child today
One thing about the Nigerian child is that they have great ideas but are been discouraged by people saying they are still kids so shouldn't reason that much.
Children are gifts from God
Find that fortune in your child.
This na new Nija ooo
