From Ibadan To Lagos

The week starting today marks the beginning of my foray in the Lagos Market. Moving down from Kano to Ibadan was quite some fun. Having left Kano to explore more opportunities in the south, Ibadan wasn't exactly what you'll call the perfect IT market. Save for a few government contracts, it wasn't all too worth the stay. But quite worthwhile though, was the new project i started, Ibadan City Network (Kindly check it out please) which in essence aims to bring everything in that city to one place, easily accessible to both residents and visitors?


Anyway, i'd save all that juicy stuff for another post, so all in all, moved in to Lagos exactly a week today, trying to pick a,b and c together.


Last night was dinner at Sheraton prior to a New Business week with lots of hope and optimism. Lagos is known all over the world to be the business capital of Nigeria, and as such a lot of potential clients. Well, i'm keeping my fingers crossed 

Terms and Conditions

You know one of the most hated parts of an agreement?, the terms and conditions section. Yes i hate it so much because it affects my freedom. But come to think of it. It benefits you if you have the guts to switch the agreement in your favour. Cant really elaborate much on this now, but I'll definitely keep you posted

Half Day At Work

I'm in Northern Nigeria Currently and as you'll expect, today's (friday) the day when businesses close early, everybody locks up their stores at 1.30pm. Traffic becomes hell and stuff. Of course you understand, everybody's going to pray. So turns out i had to stall my arrival at the office till around2.30pm when the mad rush had gone. Am still there now and should be leaving soon. Gotta work late to make extra cash ......

First Day in Kano Office

Today is our first day in our newly acquired Kano office. A modest Office space with good internet facilities and state of the art power generating sets. Never knew i will be staying this late in the office today. But well, it's all good. Just  rounding up now to proceed home. Tomorrow will be another day. And will be looking forward to cool biz. Have a lot of phone calls to make, contacts to meet....... Wish me luck

A Very Tight And Busy Day

Today has been probably the "hectiest" day of my life. Got a beating of my life from worked out extra tired Windows XP systems and the cumbersome and unforgiving nature of the most annoying cafe timer software in Nigeria "CyberKlock".
Had to reformat two computers almost twice. In fact, i'm suing my client for mis presentation of businesss problem. Thought i'll only be formatting sytems. Turns out i had to re-install loads of software


Ahhhhh. I'm tired.
Catchya tommorow

The Formatting Job and Company

Yeah i remember talking about a paticular off-company radar job with me formatting computers and installing Windows XP, Office.... blah blah blah.

Well i'm currently there battling with the systems and its so saddening that i did not back up drivers on the first two systems.

Turns out i have to start looking for drivers for the systems still on it. i'll up date u soon enough

Meeting Missed. Friends Pissed, Board of Directors Boiling

Turns out i fail to show up for todays board meeting because i have to fix some things. And you know what, my friends are boiling. Of course they make up the board and i head it but this picture ain't enough to describe how mad at me they'll feel.
