You don’t need a rich uncle or a laptop to make money in Nigeria today. Your smartphone is your tool, your network is your audience, and your consistency is your key.

Don’t wait to be “ready.” Start with what you know, grow as you go, and stay away from anything that sounds too good to be true. Remember:
