Content creation not an all comers affair

Also speaking, media personality Fidelis Ozuawala counselled that content creation was not an all-comers affair.

"Content creation is not an all-comers affair, but any new-comer can become popular by content creation. You actually need a spice to breakout, you need something that you are known for and not a copy of another. It's either your contents is funny, informative, educative or bias and your character as a person matches the content you create. As a content creator, you have to try out every platform, then stick with and build more of the platform that profits your content creation journey."
