✅ Do you read the newspaper every day? What are its benefits?

To know the happening around us, most times we will have to read over and over again. In a world were information is power, then the use of newspaper is most crucial to everyones growth.

Haven said that, you will understand with me that I also read the newspaper often as it keeps me informed about the latest happenings in my locallity as well as the country and the world at large.

So for the above question, my answer is yes I read the newspaper everyday either in hardcopy or in soft copy. You know how technology have taken over the world now and so many things are in soft copy now.

So the newspaper I read most is in soft copy and I love reading from punch newspaper, BBC and some other known website.

The benefits of reading a newspaper daily can never be looked down upon and the reason why I say so is because readers are leaders. The more you read the more you learn and become a leader.

So benefits of reading the newspaper daily is that you will be informed and you will know all that is happening around you also you will be in a better place to tell others who don't always read the news.

This makes you a celebrity amidst your equal because they may not have the information which you have and for that reason they will always want to hear from you.

✅ What kind of news do you usually follow?

The type of news that I follow always is business news. This is because I'm always in love with business. As an Igbo boy, I have dreams of building my own business which will be an electronic business.

I have stayed with some businessmen and I discover that they make a lot of profit from their business all the time. So I always read through this news so that I can learn and get to know some other business strategy.

Though I read through other news such as sport and economic news but the one I prioritise the most is business news. I have gotten a good knowledge as to how I can run my own business too all I need at the moment is the capital to start.

✅ How do most people get the news in your country?

In my country technology is improving by the day and for that reason, people within my country at the moment get their news from the online format i.e in form of a soft copy. Everyone now has a smartphone and computer so they easily get information or news just from their phones.

So news in my country is transferred easily now because of the presences of that gadget. Though there are people who still go for the hardcopy of these newspaper as well. So here we do bothe the hard and the soft copy.

✅ Do you think international news is important?

For me international news are also very important as the local news. As someone going into business, it is always good for me to know what is happening here in my country and outside my country. So I always put in my effort to always read both the local and the foreign news.

As a Steemian, I have noticed overtime that some news after the movement of the crypto assets so it is important you listen and read from them so that you too will know how the business and the economic is changing and how you too can adjust to the change.

Everytime I read or listen to foreign news I use the knowledge gotten to analyse how the local business market will look like and that prepares me for the many moves within the business at any point and time.

I want to invite @solaymann, @okere-blessing, and @suboohi, to join the contest in this community and share their entry participation.
