Why I Quit Active News Blogging – My Current Projects & Where To Find Me
Over the past few months since I relocated, I have been struggling to keep up with a lot of things and it has come to a stage where I have to make a painful confession to all of una.
Over the past few years, NG has served you all with fresh news and gist but things went wrong at a point. Ask me why.
Since I relocated to Canada after a brief setback that I explained to some of my visitors, I have been struggling to keep up with the pace.
At this stage, I’m going to quit active news blogging.
Note: I’m not quitting this blog entirely as I have writers working for me on other projects relating to this blog so don’t think am quitting all that.
Over the years, I have spent nothing less than 12 hours a day on this blog to keep it active both on the front-end and the back end.
For the sake of my family and my health, am stopping that now.
I’m going to hand over the affairs of this blog to my staff. I no wan die of heart attack.
A mother of three working over 12 hours a day to keep a popular blog, that is crazy… Yes oh that is dedication.
It is crazy how much times news blogging take.
I make at least 30 calls everyday to make confirmations and get permissions before posting some things. It is tough my friends.
Infact at a point, my Oga on top called me a blogging addict because I practically spent most of my active time on this blog.
It got so bad that my husband do come and beg to spent some moment with me, infact I practically became NaijaGists.com addict. It got so serious that I was asked to go for counselling as I couldn’t take my eyes off the blog.
My baby daughter at some point, will come for me and be crying before I stop and attend to her…***crying***
All of the above decision put together gave me the urge to stop this destructive habit and instead hire more helping hands.
So my lovely people, I will be spending less time on the blog from now on for the sake of my health and that of my family.
I will show up once in a while to do update here and there but not the 12 hours a day like I used to…
So what is next with me??? In my next update, I will share with you my current projects and how to keep in touch with me.
Don’t forget this site will now be more of a breaking news blog, hottest celebrity scoop,etc.
Don’t expect to see a post about Bobrisky using the female toilet or Tonto Dikeh changing her makeup or Kim Kardshian flaunting her closet on this site any longer.
As a matter of fact, I was in Nigeria last week for a couple of days to train few of my staff to handle the breaking news desk.
From now on, expect only the MOST IMPORTANT NEWS ABOUT NIGERIA, AFRICA AND CELEBRITIES on this site.
I will give you full details of my ongoing natural health projects, my vlogs and where to find me in the next article.

Oh yes I was tricked. I am one of your fans and I read news on Naijagists everyday. I have emailed you in the past and you took on board what I emailed you about. That was very nice of you. It is great to know the real reasons behind your quitting. The family aspect that influenced your decision is very important, being a mother of two grown up children myself. I hope your husband will appreciate and value you more for the decision you have taken. Wishing you all the best and of course, I will follow you on Youtube and on the websites links that you have provided.

We your fans will miss you a lot, but hey, you have not gone away 100%, so handing over the day to day tasks to a team does not mean you will not be involved at all. You will still be taking part in the management and decision making process at a higher level. All the best.
