She is actually a girl.

Then she need to go and reformat her brain because I don't see where Hausa names were mentioned there as the perpetrators

its one of lesson to be learnt in one's life, anything you want to do, do it in the best time, place and give even if its token. I believe if you give you will not forget to count your money.

Boy indeed! Go enroll for a basic class, son. Since you didn't know what 'm & f' stands for.

Shut up, where was Hausa names mentioned as the perpetrators

Always transact business with the mallams in Alade Market. Do not make the mistake of falling into the trap of high exchange rates with the road side boys from Ikeja Airport Hotel to Allen Avenue.

mtcheew!!!...na those guys from wild wild west

ojoadeola:

If you want to change dollar or Pound sterling;

1. Go to appropriate places where legal and operational Bureau De Change is/are located.
2. Look for a bureau de change shop or office and go in, don’t transact at the entrance.
3. Meet the owner of the business/shop, not the surrogate/boy/mallam/loafers.
4. State the reason for your visit and agree on the exchange rate first
5. Allow them to give you the cash equivalent of your agreed sum before you hand over your cash. This is to avoid fake money or lost
money.
6. If you come with a car, don’t transact business through the windows of your car, come down and do the business.
7. Check the correctness of your money before leaving the premise.
8. Have a dedicated customer whom you transact with every time.
9. Do business with a ‘mallam’ first before any other tribe. This is my suggestion though.

Good luck to you all!

I had similar case at the same Alade market.

Though i don't surport what they did to u...(coz an agreement is agreement)...but u also nah thief......just bcoz of ur greed for 500naira u lost 12k.....

Well, they have been doing that for years and I know think they use diabolical means to execute this scam.

I was scamed at this same airport hotel two years ago when I went to convert my naira to dollars for a proposed trip.

They gave me incomplete money and they recounted it while I was watching them. In all they scamed me of over 50k that day.

Since then, if it's not the bank or the airport
Bureau de change, it's nothing oo

Take heart broken, someone else is being scammed at this hour at the same location.

Cheers

President Muhammadu Buhari and former President Olusegun Obasanjo, Tuesday, had a close door meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

The meeting between the duo lasted for about one hour at the President’s office.
However, Obasanjo refused to speak to journalists when Buhari accompaigned him to his vehicle at 4:17pm.

In his usual hilarious manner, the Ota farmer simply told journalists that approached him: “comot joo.”

It would be recalled that Buhari had on August 21 named Obasanjo as his Special Envoy to mediate and help find a solution to the crisis brewing in Guinea Bissau.

special envoy? Obj has gotten what He has always wanted. So can buhari probe such a man? With all d corruption he is sitting on? Nigeria is simply a game of chess with Obj as the master player all these one buhari dey do... He dosnt really knw what he is doing cuz PDP is still in govt. Let's see how long this Obj Buhari will last.

i've read something similar on NL. e don tey weh e don dey happen

You dis black ugly brainless bitchhh, did you even bother to read through the OPs post before commenting?

Biafran she goat

Hehehehehe


I can't stop laughing ooooo!!!!

Op u r a stingy person btw!

If u had reached me earlier i'll take u to the place and i'll retrieve all ur money.

I know all of them in alade even the hausas that claim to know nothing.

And the crooks in awolowo opposite airport hotel.

Nairalanders be wise! Especially in ikeja.

I simply change inside the international arrivals(not the mallams), Just before I walk through customs.
The safest and always the best rates.

Last month, I was passing there and I saw this pick up truck of Military policemen in red berets. They arrested some hausa currency traders there and drove them in the direction of Ikeja Barracks. From the faces of those soldiers, I knew those Mallams would see 'change' that day.

Demmocrats:
Op I have some questions for you



How long have you stayed in lasgidi because you yan like a jjc





Lastly it seems this is the first time you ever changed a foreign currency in your life.


Only a jjc will respond the way you did


Even the Hausa men that denied the identity of those guys are lying involve the police and arrest then and see the truth come out asap

He is a complete mugu.

This trick is as old as 1990 and I am surprised people still fall for it.

Do not change money on road side anywhere in Lagos. They will always short change you no matter how fantastic you think the rates is or how smart you think you are.

In fact, they knew you were a mugu immediately you choose to go for the guy with the higher rate

This once happened to a friend of mine. He even shared the story with us recently.

sorry... Thankgod it didn't get physical

Never deal with any other tribe except and hausa man,when exchanging your currency and do it at the airport or in a registered office, if any one scam you at the airport, that's it for that he will never set foot at that airport again.

Because he brought a bad name for the real money exchanging "mallams"

Its d truth, if the collaboration had been it an hausa man, the story would read #swindlers lynched at alade market #[right][/right]

Emeka71:

Thanks Emeka, you learn daily. This is a lesson learnt which I am passing across to you and others.

Sorry for your loss mate and thanks for the tips. It was a well orchestrated scheme and no one could have suspect there's a hidden plot to shortchange and steal their money with the manner it was carried out. You where lucky you were exchanging only a hundred dollar bill. Your loss would have been enormous were the transaction more.

I don't transact exchange with anyone else but only confirmed mallams and I only hand over the money after counting in the car. Apart from the very few extremist elements we have in the north, northerners are the most sincere and honest people to do monetary transaction with. I remember over paying one a £20 bill one time and he returned it after counting. Hardly you'll see any other tribe do that if not Hausa. Some could even chip in fake notes if one is not careful. Sickening!
