The bustling marketplace buzzed with the energy of a thousand lives. A symphony of sounds filled the air: the clanging of metal, the chatter of vendors, the laughter of children. Amidst the chaos, a young street artist named Maya painted vibrant scenes on canvases stretched across the cobblestones.

Her brush danced across the canvas, capturing the essence of the city in a swirl of colors. Each stroke told a story, a glimpse into the lives of the people who walked by. There was the baker with his flour-dusted hands, the flower girl with her fragrant blooms, the old man with his weathered face and a lifetime of stories in his eyes.

One day, a wealthy merchant, drawn by the beauty of Maya's art, approached her stall. He offered to buy all her paintings, a fortune that would set her free from the life of a street artist. But Maya hesitated. She knew the true value of her art lay not in its monetary worth, but in the stories it told, the emotions it evoked, the connection it fostered with the people who saw it.

She refused the merchant's offer, choosing instead to continue painting for the people, sharing her art with the world, one brushstroke at a time. The marketplace, once just a place of commerce, became a canvas for her art, a testament to the power of creativity to touch the lives of others.

CHRISTMAS VILLAGE BLACK MARKET KIOSK: THE WRITING ON THE WALL

My initial reaction to the news of Christmas Village kiosks being resold for as high as three hundred thousand naira in the black market was anger. I was vexed at such greed and selfishness. The Pastor Umo Eno-led administration has been intentional about subsidizing livelihoods for our people. Initiatives like the Arise Healthcare Insurance, Bulk Purchase and Food Distribution programmes, testify to the Governor’s efforts to reduce the cost of living for the citizenry.

Reducing the cost of kiosks at the Christmas Village from last year's one hundred and fifty thousand naira—despite increased construction and operational costs—was a deliberate move to make them affordable and maximize the profit margin for vendors during the 32 days of Christmas Unplugged 2.0. Yet, some selfish individuals exploited this noble initiative by reselling kiosks with a 300% markup.

However, what baffled me even more was that people were willing to pay such exorbitant prices. I couldn’t help but ask myself: What will they sell? At what rate? How will they recoup such an investment and still make a profit? These questions lingered until yesterday morning, when the answers became clear.

At 6 a.m., the manager of Amazing Pot, my cousin, called urgently. She requested a soft loan to purchase goat heads for the shop. Half-asleep, I initially dismissed her plea, thinking, What’s the emergency in buying goat head for a night business? But her reply caught my attention: “Christmas Village vendors are rushing goat heads; the available ones are for the highest bidders. If I don’t buy now, there won’t be Isi Ewu at Amazing Pot.” Realizing the urgency, I transferred the money.

The Christmas Village, officially opened on December 1, 2024, by the representative of the Governor, and Secretary to the State Government, Prince Enobong Uwah, has become a hub of economic activities. Just four days in, vendors are experiencing sales, leading to spikes in demand for goat head. Suddenly, the rationale behind paying three hundred thousand naira for kiosks became evident: the business potential was massive.

The Christmas Village was designed not just as a festive venue but as an economic engine. The rich buffet of cultural displays, entertainment, scenic beauty, and tourism potentials have attracted lots of patrons. Vendors, especially those offering local delicacies, have tapped into this influx of customers, making their kiosks a worthwhile investment.

As an experienced entrepreneur, Pastor Umo Eno has transformed the Ibibio Museum grounds into a profitable marketplace. While the Governor's concerns over the sharp practices of kiosk black marketers are valid, we must also acknowledge the success story unfolding at the Ibom Christmas Village.

This article does not, in any way, rationalize the illegality of kiosks reselling. Instead, it points to the overwhelming demand and the value the Christmas Village has added to the local business community. The writing on the wall is clear: this initiative is not just about celebrating Christmas; it’s about creating opportunities and boosting the economy of Akwa Ibom State.

Does hard work really beat talent as most people claim?

Let me tell you one rule, which you can follow almost universally.

And the rule is very simple.

Whenever you hear that there is a principle that is believed by most people as RIGHT, you can be sure that the principle is absolutely WRONG.

In other words,

The degree of the falsehood of a statement is directly proportional to its popularity.

It is true that most people believe that hard work beats talent.

Hence, rest assured that hard work can’t beat talent.

If you don’t wish to join the gang of the majority who have lost all their self-confidence and prefer to follow the crowd, then instead of using your hard work to beat talent, do the following.

Use hard work to nurture talent.
Use your talent to beat the hard work.
Let me now explain these two principles in detail.

1. Use hard work to nurture talent

Every human being has a talent for something.

In the same way, no human being has a talent for everything.

Let's take the case of Albert Einstein.

Einstein wrote four papers in 1905, on the topics of relativity, Brownian motion, Photoelectric effect and mass-energy equivalence.

All papers were so great that each paper deserved a Nobel Prize.

And he was hardly 26 years of age when he achieved this feat.

Unless you are super dumb and stupid, you don’t need convincing that Einstein was highly talented for this type of work.

It is not to say that he did not work hard.

However, he did not work hard to beat talent but rather worked hard to nurture his talent, which resulted in the creation of such great work for humanity at such a young age.

Imagine that instead of doing scientific research, Einstein had rather chosen to work very very hard to become a great soccer player!.

He would have perhaps been a failed sportsman who led a miserable life.

2. Use your talent to beat the hard work

While hard work can’t beat talent, you can use your talent to beat hard work.

As a matter of fact, you can recognise your talent only when you are using it to beat hard work.

If you wish to identify your talent, always try to find out the most efficient way to produce the result.

When you discover that in any particular area, you can produce results with much lesser effort as compared to others, you identify your talent in such an arena.

If you work too hard to succeed in a particular area, that is a sure indication that you lack talent in that area.

Hence, you have to keep experimenting with different things in life, till you find your talent.

Once you discover your talent, work hard to nourish your talent, instead of trying to beat a talent with your hard work.

Albert Einstein said this so wisely, “Everybody is a genius. But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.”

A fish can never climb a tree however hard it tries since it does not have the talent for climbing a tree.

However, even a lion can’t beat a fish when it comes to swimming inside water.

In the same way, you can’t succeed in any area of life for which you don’t have the desired talent., while in the area of talent, you can zoom through success easily.

The real challenge is to identify your talent since talent is not like the beauty of a person that is visible to the naked eye.

Hence, don’t believe in the stupid popular sayings which are freely available in the marketplace.

Instead, apply your mind to find the truth yourself to lead a happy and successful life.

Now that is the most important talent you have to start developing now.

Better to have friends in the marketplace than money in your coffers.

About half of the U.S. population has health insurance coverage as an employment benefit, with premiums partially covered by the employer.

The employer cost is tax-deductible to the payer, and the benefits to the employee are tax-free (with certain exceptions for S corporation employees).

Self-employed people (including freelancers and gig workers) can buy insurance directly from insurers on their own. The Affordable Care Act of 2010, commonly called Obamacare or ACA, mandated the creation of the ACA Healthcare Insurance Marketplace, which
