Pls How Can I Stop Unknown Abokis From Calling My Number by Babaflenjor: 10:31am On Jun 21, 2023
I'm tired of receiving unknown Abokis calls on my line, Different Abokis calls my number every day even sometimes 6 to 8 times a day, mostly they call late in the night between 11pm to 2;30 am. The strange things here is different people call at different times both male and female speaking Hausa language, I do answer them in Pidgin or English language, but they will reply me in Hausa language, if I end the call they will still call back.
I have been using this number since November last year, I don't have any issues with it until about two months ago when this Aboki woman started calling me around 2am.
Why I'm worried now is the way they sound on phone, the guy that called me last night was speaking Hausa violently, at a point I have to switch off my phone, and immediately I put on my phone this morning another lady started calling me I av called Airtel customer service like 10 times to know if the line was previously allocated to an hausa man but they no they told me it's a new SIM actually the line is 0904 series just don't know what to do to stop this.

The problem is that most times, they don't understand English and are very stubborn.
If you have tried to explain to the person but to no avail, you can respond to them with any gibberish that sounds like Hausa and they'll leave you alone😔

I don't think so!
I have been using my line since 2009 and encounter same problem.
One peculiarity is the urgency in their voice - more like an appointment that can not be deferred!
"Mai Ungwa" called my line so tay I blacklisted his number, only for me to receive a text in hausa from another number urging me to pick his call now now!!!

Someone scammed people and randomly dropped a num that happens to be yours...
Find sm1 who speaks Hausa.. to talk to the callers and clarify that whoever they want to speak with gave them a fake number

Those guys never stop calling! No matter how much you shout wrong number or swear for them, they wil keep calling.
Frequency will reduce over a few weeks and later you will just see random flashes.

After warning one aboki to stop calling and the idiot who could not understand my pidgin, let alone English continued calling until I decided to pick the call and allow the him waste his airtime without saying anything in response. The idiot stopped calling.

Recycling issues.
Re: Pls How Can I Stop Unknown Abokis From Calling My Number by HRMK: 8:40am On Nov 08, 2023
IT MUST BE EITHER OF TWO THINGS:
1.THAT LINE IS ALLOCATED TO THAT HAUSA MAN.
2.THE CALLER/S MISSING ONE OR MORE OF THE NUMBERS.
SOLUTION:
1.EACH TIME YOU ARE CALLED,ALLOW THE CALLER TO EXHAUST THE CALL CREDIT!THEY WONT AGAIN!!
2.USE THE CODE THAT IDENTIFIES YOUR PHONE NUMBER.
3.GO TO AIRTEL OFFICE.
GOODLUCK.
