It is amazing to know how much the harsh economy has rendered many rich people poor; and those that were initially referred to as “poor” poorer. Before now, our men use to be the bread winner but the story is almost a fairy-tale as we currently have it. Nigerian men, in order to continually occupy their position as the head have now resulted to
some secret or side activities to support their peanut salary; which can barely run the family for a full month.
some secret or side activities to support their peanut salary; which can barely run the family for a full month.
Funny enough, most of these activities are done in hidings due to poor public perception. For instance, some men indulge in them at a far distance from their home. Others who have the courage hide under the cover of the night. In real fact, most that I know practice these activities on their mobile phones and often use pattern or password on their device.
Below, I have carefully studied the trend around me and was able to come up with some of these programs. It is important to note that my intention is never to condemn any of the programs but only for informational purposes.
1. BABA IJEBU, NAIRA BET, BET NAIJA, 360BET…
I know you will be expecting this list! Of course, it will be almost impossible to mention activities that fetch side money without these categories. A lot of Nigerian men these days now hid under the umbrella of sports to play stakes. If you doubt this, take a sample of 20 men and check their handset. You will be surprised that more than 50% will have the NAIRABET app or its counterparts. You will be shocked even more when you check the mobile phones of your Pastors, Imams as well as brethren in your church or mosque.
However, those who are a bit less educated patronise the super BABA IJEBU for their luck. When you pass-by the kiosk, you will hear able bodied men screaming “2 sure”, “3 direct”!
2. GNLD, H2I…
If you are a Nigerian and has never received text message from the promoters of these programs inviting you for a life transforming “opportunity”, then you have not been socializing enough. In order to combat their poor financial status, Nigerian men are now taking over these programs for some hinted benefit towards financial breakthrough.
You should have notice them around you area preaching the gospel of a luxury lifestyle.
3. MMM, DOLLARIZE…
Like seriously, these are becoming our new national anthem! In fact, this is what you get when unemployment has eaten deep into the marrow of a people. Men are now seen in every manner of social gathering canvasing people to join this online “free money” programs; yet it is not actually that free! Men who are into these actually intend to make some cash from referral through a supplied link.
