The Wisdom of the Giant: Why Every Battle Isn’t Yours

 Learn to select your fights. 


It’s not every fight you fight.


In my language, there is a saying: “A giant needs to be wise to live long.”


If a giant decides to fight every fight, he will end up in trouble. And those who push you, who hail you into some fights, will not be there to defend you or help you. 


There has been this dispute between BLord and VeryDarkMan. To an extent, it was an unnecessary fight.


BLord came up with a registration claiming he had registered the Ratel brand, not knowing that VeryDarkMan allegedly had registered it long ago.


He also allegedly registered the BLord brand. BLord imported electric vehicles with the name written on them for public transport. 


VeryDarkMan then said BLord had broken the law because he had already registered that name.


At first, I thought he was joking. Before you know it, I saw a list of various BLord trademarks that had been registered with the Corporate Affairs Commission. 📄


Some people are not wise. Some people are not smart. You can have money, but you need to be intelligent.


You need to be guided by the law.  You need to have a wise lawyer you consult regularly. You will always hear me say: my lawyer, my lawyer.


BLord also published things allegedly using VeryDarkMan’s face on billboards and materials.


VeryDarkMan went to court and got an order restraining him — even leading to detention for 26 days pending the next hearing.


I don’t know whether it is AI, but I saw videos where VeryDarkMan, with his lawyer, escorted BLord in a Black Maria to Kuje prison, and ensured he entered before leaving with Barrister Marshal Abubakar. 


The case is ongoing, so we can’t pass judgment. But we must learn to be careful. 


There used to be a millionaire in the East who sold motorcycle spare parts. One young Igbo boy sent him to prison. By the time he came out, we didn’t hear of his brand again.


You can make fun of people, yes — but know your legal limits.


This case between BLord and VeryDarkMan will go a long way. It’s going to be a long story.


“Dead body go full ground,” as Benin boys say.


The fear of VeryDarkMan is the beginning of wisdom.

Adsense Arbitrage: Why You Should Never Put All Your Eggs in One Basket

 There's pain and there's pain that comes with regret. The regret that; "i should've done this" or "i shouldn't have done that". especially when you knew exactly why it happened. Google banned two of my accounts, instantly and here's why, and what i've learnt and why i could get paid what i earned or not. 2 at a go! I wasn't using same bank accounts on both, but it was about something else which i shared below. i've had Adsense account bans in the past, i've even had two accounts banned but not same time (i have a video on youtube about it sef), but two accounts being banned exact seconds, exact minute, just totally blew my mind. and that has brought me to a new discovery of something never to do again. I knew o! but i had to re-learn it the hard way. The Adsense specialist might have clicked a few buttons to achieve their aim, but over here, they invariably slashed someone's monthly salary, threatened someone's income sou...

VDM VS Blord: Why Wisdom Trumps Over Wealth

 What sent BLord to prison was simply his ego, nothing else, not even VDM. After seeing all the evidence/charges against him, he should have pleaded guilty, tendered an apology, and paid for the damages. VDM will feel like the bigger man, come on social media to brag about it to feed his ego, but he will let it go.  It likely wouldn’t have cost him much, and he could have gone home to be with his family, focused on his business, and stayed away from social media fights. We should pray that the government did not hijack this whole thing. If they did, that guy isn’t coming out anytime soon. Even VDM himself would struggle to fight for his release and still can't do anything.  Do you think the EFCC is happy with his constant bragging about defeating them in court? Do you think the City Boys Movement is happy with him? None of his tribesmen can come to his rescue, because those ones are already busy fighting to save their own necks. In fact, I strongly believe that Omoyele So...
