We always knows when we ought to take that next step but the determining factor is dependent on our willingness to PUSH without a doubt.

Nobody is fully ignorant when it comes to making that change, but sometimes, the fear of leaving what appears "comfortable" overrides the unknown.

If you are truly exhausted, nobody will compel you to, your situation will PUSH you so hard.

Few hours ago, i made a post that Nigerians are the easiest people to govern, if only you do the basics. But because those ruling over them knows how much they can adjust and adapt to just anything, they aren't even ready to do the barest minimum that will make themselves look like gods in the sight of these people.

Over six months ago, my organization's account officer informed me that one of our accounts is dormant, and knowing what that means, I consistently kept asking him on how to reactivate it, without any visible success. At some point, it was difficult for him to send the monthly bank statements which we have applied to be receiving via email.

I knew that I will be in so much trouble if any transaction goes into the said dormant account and the organization have issues with getting funds from it. I knew that sending a direct email to the bank will result to something more serious for the account officer, hence I kept reminding him till few weeks ago when a loved one of mine got wind of the situation and had to help out with the reporting and confirmation.

Realizing that both accounts are dormant is annoying enough. It didn't take the account officer another second to call and promised sending the necessary details. I can only imagine the scoldings he might have received because of this, which to me is very avoidable if had done his job.

There's no fun in jeopardizing someone else's job, because you aren't doing your part, hence why I dislike the aspect of working with a team, especially when the team lead isn't proactive towards finding solutions to problems (no matter how insignificant).

It pi**es me the hell off when someone else is the reason why I am viewed by an chance as incompetent or whatever that suggests unserious. Hence why, when I come at you for putting me on that spot, I come really hard and wouldn't mind the outcome.

Please, if you're tired of doing a job, quit, instead of being bad at that job.

I knew something was amiss since Tuesday that I got back from the Easter break but I just couldn't place it, because a lot was going on from my end as regards my job.

It was on my way home, yesterday that I realized that I haven't seen the security guard who was employed in December after his predecessor left without prior notice, infact I resumed in January to find out that a new person has taken over.

On walking into the office premises this morning, the first question I asked the cleaner after an exchange of greetings was " please, where is the security guard" and I can say that I was torn between being surprised and not being at same time, on hearing that he equally quit.

The informant seemed angrier and that for me felt like "going to an extreme", because there's no rule within his appointment letter that enforces that he stays, even if he has a chance to leave.

I will never be that employee that will have to make people stay where it is no longer serving them, because I have left (severally) in some other places.

My only concern was the process of recruiting and getting some documentations for a new person.

There's nobody who doesn't like the idea of stability or growth, hence if they aren't finding it in a place, you have no right to hold them down, same applies to firing those who aren't competent to do the job.

In my earlier years of corporate life, I had a manager who goes with the mantra of "fire your boss" and the way he described it, it feels so good for someone who understood the real meaning of capitalism.

Quitting on a good term is very commendable, but feeling terrible that an ex employee is moving to somewhere better is selfishness, and certainly not a way to go.

If you need stability and retainship, you sure know what to do.

Let me ask again.....

Hi, business owner, why can't you retain incompetent people in your organization?

Why can't you take excuses for not meeting targets, deadlines or losing a bid?

Why do you go from verbal warnings to a query to a straight termination?

Why apply caution tools such as surcharges and suspensions?

Why are you so mad about mismanagement and waste of resources?

Why are you so quick in using words like " do you want to run my business down"

If you can put this much efforts in ensuring that your business stays afloat and doesn't run to the ground, why do you think you should enable an incompetent person or people to run an entire country?

Do you know that governance is equivalent to running a business? You don't know? You don't know that your decisions (policies) determines the country's growth or its downfall (same as trading items)

Dearest business man, if I am patronizing you, it isn't because I like you, it is because you are selling value, hence understand that if I have to reject a bad leader, it isn't necessary from a place of personal hate, it is simply because he or she is incompetent.

That idea of not wanting you or your product can only translate to hate when you wishes to impose your choice on me or blatantly refused getting it right.

In my small book of power, " I work for my money and should have a say in a product that I have chosen to buy"....simply put " i am a legitimate citizen and therefore have a choice as to who will rule over me"

It doesn't matter how an unserious the message in my mailbox seems, I will definitely open and read, dive into the spam folder and read those trapped mails that are usually from scammers.

If you have never lost an opportunity, you might not be able to understand the reason why I can ignore WhatsApp messages, but must check my mail box.

As someone who is actively looking for more opportunities, please endeavor checking your inboxes and have fun while at it.

This one from Workerholic cracked me up real time. But in the middle of the jokes, the painful truth lies within.

I could recall a conversation I once had with my mum, and it was about leadership. Leadership for me is neither naturally given nor learned, it comes to someone who finds love in the heart of majority. To me, most leaders are moved by people who has loved them first. That's why being charismatic is a thing of honor. You can be liked without doing so much and more loved when you do a little.

Why did I say that? I was born as the first child and first daughter in an average Nigerian home, and right from the time I could recall, I think that I am caring but not selfless. So, anytime any of my parents wants to make me understand my position as the first child and a girl at that matter, I constantly reminded them that it wasn't an automatic position to fixing others or things. If I choose to do something, I am only doing it because the opportunity presented itself and I would have ensured that I am not overburdening myself. So, for me being a first child wasn't an automatic ticket to being a role model to others(infact don't praise me or compare me to others because you might not be sure of my next actions)

In my family, the person who does it selflessly, even if he's in pains is closer to the least in the lines of seniority and sometimes when I see him carry others(words of wisdom, finances, care etc) even when he has a lot to take care of, with smiles and all of that, I asked God why he didn't allow him come first.

You can't see me in a space fighting for any outstanding leadership position and even in cases where I have been offered, I usually turned them down, not because if I agree in doing it, I won't do it well, but I just disliked the aspect of committing to something that i wouldn't do well. When you see me agree to play a role, just be sure that I will do it extremely well and quit when I no longer wants it.

So, my question to the politicians in Nigeria? why forcefully take up roles that you are very much aware that you can't handle? Nobody should tell me its the money, because I have seen those with money, yet they are so not interested in leading anyone.

Why exactly would you want to be in a position where it is damn obvious to you that you aren't liked or approved ( by the majority), yet you still want to be there at all costs?

Why would you take up a role, refuse to perform and still want to be in that role?

Do you people have a problem with pride, self-worth and dignity?

Can I really understand something?

Most of the Billionaires of the Igbo descent who are part of the city stolen mandate are businessmen with employees.

Thankfully, i have worked in a hospitality industry, which the likes of Obi Cubana and Chief priest are relatively involved and I know to an extent how things works.

You could report to work on a good day, only to be fired or have your salary deducted on an account of an offense.

Then I wonder, if these people can easily sack or deduct their employee's pay as a result of " incompetence or mismanagement", why would they be willing to leave the lives of millions of Nigerians in the hands of a complete nuisance?

If you as an employee knows that your livelihood is dependent on how productive you are on your job, wouldn't you be doing your best to keep the job? knowing fully well that losing it, equates losing a source of livelihood?

As an employer, even if you like an employee so much and wouldn't want to get rid of them, regardless of how incompetent they are, don't you think they deserves to know that they aren't doing a good job and should sit up if they really want to keep that role?

If you can't treat your personal business, same way you treat the lives of every Nigerian who deserves good governance, then i would want to know how you succeeded in establishing that business in the first place.

I took a time out to look into the accounting book I opened for the popcorn business which officially kicked off on the 6th of December 2025.

Nigeria situation will make it look like your business isn't making any significant profits not until you master the art of keeping accounting records.

Never play with having a proper record system because it will help in keeping you in check. That is your major determining factor, either to quit or continue.

Its been 3 months and we are grateful for the continuous patronage.
