What do you think about OK clothes on display in local markets?
Do you own any OK stuff?
yeah I do own a lot of them
That's nice.
I do too.
I think they are fine, especially the first grades. What is the name of this market?
This is Ngwa road market.
Its a popular local market right? What can I buy there?
I see a lot of baby wears here. Do they sell adult cloths too.
Of course they do!
I think the prices are cheap.
I think,they are the ideal for any one who wants to cut his/her budget
And you can get a lot of nice things at a very affordable price.
very much cheaper
Seems like the road is less busy. No single vehicle on it
I noticed that too, it's not much like a typical ABA market
Yes, it seems like this was not the main market day
most certainly,else it would have been so crowded
Thats for sure. Have you been here on the main market days? How do you cope with the crowd?
i just avoid getting hit by the barrow guys, and also try to reduce body contact with people there as much as I can
Yeah.
You can see how those two men are slowly crossing the road
They are just taking their time. No traffic
The sellers all have large umbrellas. Are they selling on the road?
the umbrella's are mostly used to advertise
Exactly
i thought as much
Yes.
The weather is extremely hot these days
very affordable, and you can find high-quality thrift items at a cheaper price. Most boutiques buy thrifted items, repackage them as though they are not thrifted, and sell them at an outrageous amount.
that's the secret, since you want it high ,they buy it low and then give it to you high
Lol, as a tall girl, wearing high heels are a no for me even tho I admire those that do so.
awwn so sorry
Yeah
Most people don't know this.
Do you have someone who sells them?
I have assorted ok clothes. What of you?
I do too.
OK bags are usually very strong if you get the right one.
ahhhh, am mama ok oooo, is rare to get ok designs.
The designs are a little bit expensive and somehow scarce.
It all depends on the one you go
oh yeah I own some OK, and they last longer.
I have also noticed
Beverages. Make your choice. Which ones are popular in your area? @beauty197 @ngobaby @empressjay, @ijebest, @emjeak
I'll take the milks,big fan of it
Whats you favorite brand of milk?
i don't have a favorite there,I prefer condensed milk,as a kid though, it's more tasty
Ovaltine and Cowbell milk are incredibly popular beverages in my area; almost every provision store carries them. This is unlike other beverages such as Dano milk and Golden Morn, which aren't as widely available.
All othemwm are popular here o.But which one wiyyou buy for me? Golden morn or Ovaltine and peak milk
Teel.me your favorite milk there
the most popular, around here is,the Milo chocolate,and the peak milk
People buy it every time right? Do you enjoy taking tea?
Yes of course,I so much do
Wow, I love Ovaltine and three crowns milk
Yes three crowns is low on fat which why i like it. How often do you take tea?
Not too often , I prefer our local tea by name Akpuli leaves
Goldenmorn
Ovaltine is my all-time favorite. I can go for it anytime.
Golden morn is also a thumbs-up for me.
They help a lot especial golden morn when there is no food or u need to quickly take something to sustain yourself.
I don't use powdered milk due to adulteration.
which one do you use
Let me pick Milo
and golden moon
Here in Brazil, it's the famous cachaça, but I prefer a cold beer!
** The first HIVE CONTENT CREATORS MEETING IN MY CITY. See if you can identify yourself and other content creators in this photo? WHEN AND WHERE?**
I was present on the seminar and we really enjoy it
I did see you or me in this selfie
yeah. We graced the occasion and learn more about HIVE
Good to hear that. Of course I even saw you
yeah. Thank you
I can see chichieze at the front.
marajah is right behind you talking to chichieze
Exactly. Eagle eyes you have there, right?
I can also see @ngobaby and @empressjay
Thanks to you @fokusnow and your team for bringing us together.
I appreciate your presence
What is ladyofpolicy checking on her phone?
Woah , a day ii can hardly forget, at panyu hotel, anyways am the lady standing at the back and what was ii even showng that vibe gver standing beside
Yes, I saw you there.
whoa this looks like fun, when was it
Was really fun.
Am missing can someone find me
I guess you were there in spirit.
or what is it
This was held at panyu hotel located at market road, seems I was taken unaware, not smiling at all.
You have sharp memory. PANYU HOTEL IS CORRECT.
These are platform sandals. Would you recommend these to a friend instead of high heel shoes? If yes, why?
i would
this is because this looks more balanced compared to high heels
Sure, it is very comfortable and i'll recommend to a friend as well especially a tall friend that can't slay heels.
most likely, it's beautiful
the brown one looks very nice
How much is the black pair of sandals?
I purchased these sandals for 2,000 naira, which is approximately equivalent to 5 Hive. This budget-friendly option allows for a stylish and comfortable choice without straining the wallet.
I loke it flat. High heel shoes can be uncomfortable.
I love these platform sandals
Are the rubber or leather?
They're made of strong rubber material, which feels comfy and flexible. What's interesting is, you wouldn't really notice it's rubber just by looking – it has a sleek appearance. But, trust me, they're both stylish and practical.
I thought its leather. They surely look nice and strong. How much is each pair?
The brown and black pairs are each priced at two thousand naira each, while the pink pair was a thoughtful gift from my big sister.
Very ideal for the tall geng.
my favorite sandal so far, i prefer it to highs, so i will boldly recommend it to a friend
What do you think of Nigerian banknote and it's decline on the world market
they are just indecisive, that's why they keep saying what they can't do.
there's no clear indication for growth
at all
sure
it's unstable,and can't be predicted,it's okay now ,the next second it's 👇
the rate of it's decline is too high, so it's just looking like papers in my eyes like this. I just hope their could be a way out
every other African currencies maintain high worth than it
With good values, except Naija own
you are right
exactly 💯
I was trying to count the money. You have 12,000 am I right?
you were present when the money was counted physically. We gave it to you. How much was it?
The loss of value of Naira is really alarming. What do you think is the main cause?
excessive importation minus low productivity. What of you?
Do you keep a lot of cash or do your transactions mainly on digital?
I prefer digital marketing and trading but when more people demands cash. What will you do
What can this money buy for you?
it have devalued because of inflation in our land
Which insects visit your home the most? Here it ranges from butterflies to ants, and I made a post about it a few minutes ago.
https://inleo.io/@michupa/a-visit-from-nature-enpt
What's your view? Do you see cockroach as a friendly insect or as an enemy? Can you eat it?
NONE OF THE ABOVE
WHy? So what's your view?
I if there's something more than hate it's what it is
it's a "kill on sight"thing for me
Why would anyone want to eat cockroaches? I, for one, detest them and make sure to kill them whenever they come my way.
as in eh
Hahaha, but is it harmful
wait a sec ,how were you able to get this amount
😂😂😂😂😂 through hunting
i hate these animal with a billion passion
Disgusting little creations.
Have you ever come across those flying ones.
The sound of their wings irritates me so much
Any health benefits?
I really hate them, But let me surprise you. Do you know? Cockroach milk is a protein rich, crystallized substance produced by the Diploptera punctata cockroach as a source of nourishment for its young.
I would never say that I would never eat a cockroach. In a survival situation, it's an example. There are also cases of cockroach farming for human consumption; they say it has a good amount of protein. I would eat it.
WHAT IS THE BENEFITS OF THIS VEGETABLE AND WHAT IS THE NAME IN YOUR LANGUAGE?
is this ok to
This is called Ugu or pumpkin leaves
Exactly. Same in my language. Very nutritious.
whoa I missed it, for okra,my bad
Do you enjoy Okra with Ugu?
why not,yes I very much do o
Its the most popular, people cook it as they say it helps in building the blood.
its a vegetable my mum loves so much
How often do you make soup with it?
like, it's going to be the last of it
I try as much as I can to eat vegetables (ugu) each day. More than any other vegetables we cook (ugu) soup.
is that okra
I don't pretty much, know of it's benefits
Tasty soup 😋 sauce, very ideal for blood building. Very nutritious.
okay, that's good, thank you
What can you say about this picture, is the road busy? Why are people working at the middle of the road?
I can say that this road is for pedestrians right? See its interlocked.
yes it is
The girl carrying a bag on her head is not holding it.
I can see a sign post. They wrote Kidz & More on it. Sees like a store for children items.
There are 3 beans holding each set of pillars under the bridge.
These two men are wearing Ankara and they are walking together.
because no vehicle is approaching
A small local market is sighted at the right corner.
Looks like a pedestrian walk way under a bridge
I think under bridge no car running yet
This is one of the markets, a retailer pushing his wares in a wheelbarrow forcing himself through the already crowded market, what do you think?
it's never easy to make a decent living out there
Honestly I always see this set of people as exceptional hustlers
the man is quite determined to make sales today
I like the detergent on display. Good Mama. Whats your favorite detergent?
actually I don't think I have any
good mama has a very nice perfume, it's my favorite.
I think he needs buyers seriously
i think he just wants to get out of the crowd
So what's his aim of coming to market, is it not to sell
Another detergent here is Viva plus. Do you know how much they sell a roll of it?
A roll is up to #1,000 now.
Thats really expensive. We are being hit by inflation
Yeah, high inflation is heating Nigeria.
Inside the wheelbarrow, I see a packet of matches
the man is a serious hustler, selling almost everything.
Am telling you. Do they rest at all?
They do rest but not properly.
Soklin
I can see a woman backing the man. Is she scratching her head?
The heat level can make you do a lot of things.
I'm yet to see who has removed her wig
Hahahaha. She is seriously scratching her head ooo
yes she is,the price shock am
Maybe her head is behind him 🤣😅
In our daily lives, we often encounter struggles that make just getting by feel like a real challenge. Whether it's dealing with tough times or facing personal difficulties, the journey to survive is something many of us can relate to.
Yeah, life is full of uncertainty, do you realize that man can be a graduate, but see Nigerian Factor
the man isn't even smiling
If you were him would you smile?, he is suffering under a heavy sunshine 🥰
I feel the heat from here
and the sun here seems to be much
you know naa how our dry season and sunshine behave
given the weather,the pure water behind him would do very great in quenching subsequent water thirsts
ok ooo let's see if his taste
y wouldn't he,he sure is, even the facial expression,tells it
Here is my image. Tell me what you see. Describe any actions in multiple threads.
everyone are on the move
Yes. Its a busy road junction. Can you guess the time I took the picture?
What color is the girl in school uniform wearing?
Aba is a very busy place
How many people are trying to cross the road?
make I check
whoa,this is so busy
How many cars can you see here?
about five of them I think
Can you see the Lexus Jeep? Tell me.
yes ,right there in the middle of the road
u don't even dare cross without turning here,
Yes. Its always a busy road junction. What do you think should be here to help prevent accidents?
I think first is road safety officers and , maybe a roundabout would do great
A urban setting that shows major transportation systems
True. Can you show me where they wrote PEPSI in that picture?
yeah. I can see it.... Will you give me prize when I show you
This is really a busy bus stop , one needs to watch very well before crossing
Sure. Can you see the lexus jeep in the picture?
it just stand
This place looks like a popular junction in my area, and it less busy than it would be on a typical business day.
Where is the rider of the Keke in front?
People are out for the day hustle
Thats true. Guess the time I took this picture.
i guess around 9am in the morning
is indeed a busy morning and the picture says it all, tricycle conveying passengers to their various destination , even with the traffic, it doesn't stop people from going to their daily hustle
Sure its super busy here. Look the picture well. Do you see where they wrote PEPSI?
I can see a busy road intersection.
it seems the keke drivers are nonchalant,see their movements, almost colliding into each other
From one side I see 4 people crossing
The traffic here doesn't look organized.
Even the roads are not demancated.
No traffic lights no traffic warders. Chaos
Its proper chaos. And this is a very busy road junction!
the color of the uniform is yellow and blue
You saw that right. What do you think is the brand of that black Jeep there?
I wonder what's causing those tricycles to cluster there when the road is not so busy
Maybe someone is parking wrongly down the road. They usually pick and drop passengers without caring about other road users.
Did anyone spot the food vendors?
I.am.strughling to see them. Can you describe where they are?
please is there any elevator for this four story building
There is none. Its manual. You use the staircase.
So not for Old people, pregnant women, sick people and the rest. Because not all have the strength
Yes not for anyone that cannot climb. What do you think about having a shop in the last floor?
Chai, your own is gone,no hope for business
Good evening everyone, let's
you are welcome
**What do you think about this business venture and risks?
Poultry farming is really profitable. But I think it needs big capital. Am I right?
yeah. It's high capital intensive. Very profitable when it went well
Please how much is a bag of feed today?
What can cause these chicks to die?
many factors can be responsible. But majorly They are vulnerable to disease and pathogen
So how do you keep them away from disease?
numerous vaccines are available. Clean water and proper feeding too really help on that regards
You seem to know this business well. How does inflation affect the business?
the cost of feeding, vaccine and the bird have skyrocketed.
Please how do you keep them warm during cold weather?
How long does it take to mature?
8 - 10 weeks is very good
Waooh. Thats more than 2 months. Please who are your main customers? Hotels? Or individuals?
we have middlemen that involved on the business
i think this business is great
you are right
i also think it's for people who can withstand intensive loss
everyone reacts differently to loss but the business is for all
but from our landlord I can tell it's profitable
like other ventures but misfortunes can occur
but it's not easy to o watch them die when they do ,I can relate with our landlord's experience
when all indices are wrong, such predicament can occur
yeah,it is
please is this chicks Broiler? I need like two from there as they grow
keep your money ready. It gonna be big because it's broiler specie
Raising chickens for business has its good parts, like a steady demand and chances to try different things. But there are also risks involved. These include diseases spreading among the chickens, and needing a lot of money to start.
you just AI-summarized the venture... Thanks

Big onions for sale there. Waoooh. Is the seller an Hausa man?
yes, did you notice the woman in the picture?
I guess the woman is reading a text message. Or did you pay her by transfer?
How much is the big balls of Onions. The biggest heaps?
Is sold for 2000 niara
Then the small once are 1k per shade
Waooh. Onions is really expensive now. Do.you know why?
My guess?
That man selling onions is definitely a northerner
omoh these onions big oo
and this is one thing I admire about ABA, marketerd,they are so skilled at arranging their wages
one of the best vegetables used for cooking
I see a basket full of knives. How much is each knife?
Knife is 1200 for one
Why are things so expensive like that?
Na Lagos state oooo, everything is gold even knife
The man has 3 onions in his hands. Is he counting them?
He was calling me to come and buy before I captured him
They usually call customers right? They are good at marketing.
Yesooo they are, thy will always cal you to come and buy
Onions is now one of the costly commodity that we have now, imagine buying 15 pieces of onions at the cost of 1000 naria, just look at that woman, due to low sales during the day, she is probably having fun with her phone
These onion bulbs are really matured, who is selling, the woman or the man?
is the woman, can you remember this market
A market i operated for up to 10 years
could this be onion market or just a regular open market. These onion balls are big size.
That's the place the sell only onions
But if you move other side you will see other things.
is the woman, selling or operating her phone,she looks focused on it
As market no dey she just dey pass time, she might be blogging
oh , that's true,I can relate
There's a large quantity for sale at a lower price, and you can literally find onions anywhere in the market
I think I have seen my customer here oo!!, She is pressing her phone
I love red onions, and those ones look beautiful!
good evening all

good evening house
you are welcome
Thank you my brother
you are welcome
evening
onwe are all welcome
you are welcome
My people please what is this picture and the environment telling us or represent.
let me guess, this is at the park
ir these are people who want to transport the containers elsewhere
this happening regularly on our market centers
Funny indeed, motorist now wants to give their cars heavy load,
To make more money 💰
Are they loading all these goods on the vehicle?
most likely
The man on top of the vehicle is trying to make sure the goods are secured
He has mastered tying loads, so
That is a very big foam.
For buyers from Uyo, they like to overload
Overloading vehicles is something common, especially with cargo vehicles; they always want to make sure that everything fits in without minding the consequences.
that's ABA for you
HERE2 big yellow Nylon packed with fufu
😂😂, did you see him swallow
Look at it intently, you will see the wraps of fufu naa
I'll share the thumbnail of my recent post here. I'll definetly have some meaning like the inleo updates, dashboard...
Cool and thanks. Tell me the UI that are your favorites in the right order. Which do you prefer first
I loved the dashboard ui, but it's not full working right now, but when it is 100% it'll be amazing to see the results.
Which of them is your favorite, and which all did you use in collaging them?
I liked the dashboard update and the apr changes on Inleo.
