I saw this... See screenshot below..
Did this really happen?
Those that work with Jumia, or those that know anybody that works there can help to confirm or debunk this...

It's true!
Had an interview with the in Aug, CV submitted by someone who spent some years with them, though wasn't successful with the second stage of interview with an Indian guy.
Just heard today that the CV submitter was laid off for no reason.

Happy I didn't join the team, they were not as happy as konga peeps from my assessment.

If true, then the fate of the laid-off staffers depend on their contractual agreements.

Thats the starting point...

We need to hear from more reliable sources. If this story is true, I can only say: Sh*t happens, get over it! To the laid off staff.

Bleep jumia!! Thats all I can type for now.

Bleep jumia!! Thats all I can type for now..

They must be making serious losses.

Konga will be like "Catch us if you can"[/size]

Konga? Jumia isn't in competition with any one, when they have the cheapest products why would Konga be giving them tough time? An item for 20k in Jumia goes for 25k+ in Konga. Konga is a scam.

You are a big fool. Who kill the economy? Was it not your illetrate Jonadunce. Which regime made more money in the history of NIGERIA than Jonadunce's regime?
Better grow up and stop all this hatred, it wont take you anywhere.

They could do such, cos their customer service is zero to merchants who sell on their platform.

I don't blame Jumia. They can't give what they don't have. Everyone is complaining about shortage of money. The speed at which we get alert has reduced. I just pray it gets better.


It's better to sack unproductive employees than make them labour fruitlessly. With the experience they've garnered, they'll get something better. At least better than working without pay.

So bad but when we say dat nobody knows d direction of NG economy pple will be shouting.Biz is bad so bad

Konga at the top... Jumia still strugling with the ladder.

Just confirmed it from a friend, he even put the figure at 200. Konga is sending jumia packing!

It is very true. A friend of mine escaped it.

I knew something like dis would happen anytime soon.

.d way street boys still from dis guys are so alarming
.just in my area within 2weeks ,3 records of swift theft from dem were recorded in broad daylight

More than 50. It's true. I have spoken with several staff and they confirmed it.

My friend who works there told me this really happened. People were just summoned to their HQ and told resign. No justifiable reason was given to them. She said the board was just looking for the fastest way to downsize.
You would never find NLC in this kind of situations but when money or politics are involved, you would see them shouting at the top of their voices.

There are no significant differences in prices in my opinion. Remember that a particular seller may have his products on offer on all the platforms of Konga, Jumia and Kaymu. A 5k item on Jumia with 1k shipping fee may be put up by same seller as 4k5 with 1k5 shipping on Konga.

I've used Jumia only once for the first time 2 weeks ago, not very impressed as goods got delayed beyond the promised date of delivery and I wasted time and fuel going to their office where I scheduled pick up.

Konga I have used tens of times and i have had no reason to complain.

By the way, who/which countries own these outlets (i.e Konga, Jumia, Kaymu). I wanna know if there's any of the three owned by South Africa. I've always avoided SA consortiums like a plague and justifiably so.

If a boat is sinking, someone has to get off. Thats the reality on ground.




Sorry for them that lost their jobs.
