The BBNaija 2019 ended on Sunday with reports flying around that more than N7 billion was spent by voters during the show.

Concise News, however, went back to work; dug deeper to ascertain the authenticity of such claim as bandied on social media and some "reputed" media outlets in the link below:

I'm sure they didn't.

The suggestion I posted about nairaland being subscription service and the projected income, is it workable? Dont know if anyone had mentioned this before.

but 40% of those votes are not from nigeria so the answer is no

True!

It's a great idea but looking at Nigeria, that model may not work here! Nigerians have not gotten to that level of subscribing for services like news; only a handful can do it!

Hm.

It might be interesting to see if people in Nigeria would pay to access Nairaland.

People overseas probably would.
