Business / Accolades As Grip Positions Nigerian Youths For Financial Freedom by BrownShawty(f): 2:26pm On Dec 09, 2022
Accolades as Grip Positions Nigerian Youths For Financial Freedom

The era of global digital exchanges has come to stay and Nigeria is one of the trailblazers positioning West Africa as a top contender.

Created to rightly position Nigerian youths as major players in global digital skills exchange, Grip is currently the go-to platform for the exchange of all types of gift cards in Nigeria.

The quality services that Grip offers to customers have been testified to overtime, which is why the platform boasts of a robust clientele that have been transacting consistently with the brand in spite of daily influx of competition into the market.

Oluwaseun is a 200-level student of Obafemi Awolowo University Ile-Ife, who's skill in graphics design and video editing has made him one of the most sought after on campus.

A friend of his shared one of the graphics Seun did for their departmental week on his Whatsapp status and the beauty of the artwork caught the attention of Seun's friend's brother who lives far away in Washington DC.

One thing led to the other and Seun is now the official graphics designer for a Startup Tech company in the US.

With a stable and reliable platform like Grip, Seun receives his payment via gift cards and because Grip trades almost all types of gift cards, Seun is able to confidently demand for various types of gift cards as rewards for his highly sought after skills.

"My friend's brother owns a Tech Startup in the US and at the moment, they are still floating financially. They mentioned they can only pay me through gift cards and I rejected the gig because kpe wazz gift card and how will it turn to money for me...? Remember...owo ni Koko...wink wink. But my friend told me about Grip and how fast they convert cards to cash. I tried them out and I never regretted it. Fast payments and good conversion rate is why I love them most."

Corroborating this claim is Obose, who lives with her grandparents in a small town in Plateau state.

She left Abuja to live with her grandparents after losing her parents to a tragic road accident, without leaving her digital skills behind.

She has consistently been trading her gift cards on Grip including subscribing to her CableTV to top up her grandparents airtime and data, so they can watch their favourite skitmakers and laugh heartily, which is what Obose wants for her grandparents.

For Obose, " finding a reliable and steady platform to trade my gift cards has always been my problem. I have lost lots of opportunities including access to some products and services because many Nigerian organizations don't have integrity. However, since I discovered Grip and started trading with them, it has been very wonderful. They are really doing well.

Unlike Oluwaseun and Obose who use the platform to trade their cards regularly, Emeka on his own part, is focused on preaching the gospel of Grip to all his friends on campus, especially those who trade gift cards. His target is to bring in at least 100 new customers to Grip monthly so he can earn a free 100k referral bonus when they trade.

Hear him " See ehn, na the referral bonus be my own target o, see free money na! Last month I got 50k Naira referral bonus and this December my target na 100k. Grip. na agba for trading and dem dey do well.

The above reviews are the many motivating factors in our resolve to remain the number one platform for successful gift cards trading in Nigeria.

We have earned and continue to earn customers trust in the successful exchange of gift cards for cash at very fantastic rates.

The ability to also pay utility bills such as CableTV, airtime/data top up including bet wallet funding continues to position Grip.ng as the gift cards trading platform of choice in Nigeria.

Politics / Re: How APC Polluted Nigeria by BrownShawty(f): 11:21am On Nov 21, 2022
TonyeBarcanista:
By Tonye Barcanista

At the return of democracy in the second republic, the National Party of Nigeria (NPN), Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN) and the Nigerian Peoples Party (NPP) were the dominant parties in the country. Of these three parties, the NPN was the first (and only) to adopt zoning of offices; the party chairmanship was ceded to the South while the presidential ticket to the north. The party equally made the green revolution (agriculture) a primary focus in their campaign.The other parties; ie UPN and NPP centered their campaign around welfarism and social justice/social change respectively.

In the third republic, the Social Democratic Party (SDP), which was the dominant party centred their messaging on welfarism and social justice. The other party, National Republican Convention (NRC) was conservatism leaning.

At the return of the fourth republic,democracy in 1999, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) - which still dominates the political space, as well as the All Nigeria Peoples Party (now defunct) pursued Social conservatism and Economic liberalism. The Alliance for Democracy (later Action Congress of Nigeria) adopted a combination of progressivism and welfarism.

While all parties between the period of 1979 and 2007 tailored their messaging in accordance with their respective agenda and Ideology, the Congress for Progrssive Change (CPC), which was formed in 2010 with the sole purpose of actualising the presidential ambition of General Muhammadu Buhari at the 2011 election, brought a new but sad dimension to the political arena. The CPC ran a vicious campaign that was never seen in the country - though their concentration was primarily in the northern part of the country. The consequence of that was a post-election violence that was never seen in Nigeria which cost the lives of members of National Youth Service Corp (NYSC) and other young Nigerians in Bauchi, Kano, Kaduna and other States - sadly no single perpetrator nor any of their soonsor was convicted.

In 2013, the ACN, CPC and ANPP entered into merger to birth the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the sole purpose of wrestling power from the then ruling PDP. During the 2015 electioneering the party deployed propaganda, hate speech, violent messaging and bigotry against then ruling PDP and her supporters. For the first time in Nigeria, the APC and her chieftains threatened to form a parallel government if the electoral outcome did not favor them - may I also add that the same chieftains of APC in 2014 charged residents in Osun State to mete jungle justice on anyone that sought to hijack their mandate in Osun gubernatorial election.

As a consequence of their vile speeches, the electoral atmosphere became extremely tensed with many fearing that a second Civil War may erupt. Though APC won the 2015 poll, the party successfully made hate speech, threat of violence, propaganda and several other vices as an electioneering norm to unseat an incumbent to attain power; only God knows what would have happen if the result was not in the APC's favor.

To make things worse, the party successfully reversed every democratic gains that Nigeria attained between 1999 and 2015 under successive PDP administrations - inflation rate is at all time high, insecurity is talk of the town, prices of commodities are skyrocketing on daily basis, pump prices of petrol and kerosene are not only exorbitant but relatively scarce, schools are shut down due to striking teaching and nonteaching staff, the polity is tensed - Nigerians are angry.

Therefore, it is incumbent on the electorates to be resolute and deliberate to #RecoverNigeria from the grip of the ruling APC in February 2023 poll: based on his manefesto and antecedents, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar, the PDP Presidential Candidate, is undisputably the best alternative for the to lead Nigeria from the pollution of the ruling APC.

God bless Nigeria

Clear the country needs a reset from these norms that the APC have systemically created with pollution.

Politics / Ibanga Bassey: Senator Bassey Otu Is A Risky Choice For Cross Rivers APC by BrownShawty(f): 7:59am On May 21, 2022
Open Letter To Governor Ayade
Your Excellency not many high-ranking politicians have had a smoother political career than yourself. In 2011, you ran for a seat in the Nigerian Senate and emerged victorious at the first attempt, and in 2015, you demonstrated once again that indeed God is with you, when you became governor without fuss. Space will fail us to recount the several public service appointments that have come to you with little or no struggle. Indeed, your life has been that of a man who is graced and backed by the Almighty.

Your excellency, we are worried that the legacy you have resolutely built for the state may come under severe threat in the nearest future if we become pretenders and spectators. We are indeed troubled by the latest allegation against Senator Bassey who officially expressed his interest to vie for the position of governor in Cross River State under the flag of the APC. While these allegations remain unjustified, it paints a grim picture, unsuitable for garnering public trust.

The opposition party is lurking, waiting for the right moment to strike, and they will strike. We must see beyond the now, read between the lines and take the bold step of defending our party against any weakness that may hamper victory in the coming election. We do not doubt our strength via the polls come 2023, however with Senator Bassey Otu in view amidst the allegations, our chances become dangerously slim. The fear is that we could easily lose the governorship election by a simple court ruling. Senator Bassey for now is our party’s soft underbelly.

It will be risky, to outrightly ignore the allegation against Senator Bassey. Remember when the opposition made several attempts to take you out of office through the court? We were victorious then because the law was on our side but we may not be very lucky this time. The opposition will love it if the gubernatorial seat of Cross Rivers State is decided by a court ruling. They know the people’s voting bias tilts towards our great party and as such, their earnest praying will be that we have specks of dirt swept under the carpet that could be unearthed to their glorious advantage. There is no room for mistakes here, we really must look before we leap.

To give credence to our concerns, the APC Screening panel on 20th May, once again upheld the disqualification of Senator Bassey Otu on the grounds of questionable academic credentials.

We commend the Screening committee for their unbiased view of the matter and for standing true to President Buhari's Administration zero tolerance for corrupt practices.

Now, we cannot waste any more time, we must act fast by fielding a candidate whose history is reliable and credible.

OUR PLEA

Your Excellency, it is our plea that you hand over Cross River State to a personality whose track record and capacity to lead will not brew doubts in minds and hearts. We need a candidate that will assure outright victory in the polls and court if the opposition decides to go that mile. We cannot afford to house anything less.

YOUR EXCELLENCY, GOV. BEN AYADE, WE CANNOT AFFORD TO ACCOMMODATE A TIME BOMB.

Technology Market / How I Chose My Internet Provider In Lekki by BrownShawty(f): 7:32pm On Apr 27, 2022
In November last year I started looking for a fiber company to provide internet in my house. Before that time, I only used MiFi and phone hotspot for whatever I need. My data consumption has increased so I saw that I was spending a lot of money on data and it wasn’t as strong as I would like it because I started learning how to code. So, if you want to get one too you might one thing or two from how I went about it.

When I was going to start my search, I checked Twitter, Google and came here to Nairaland to check which ones were popular, strong and reliable. Thankfully, I saw a thread on Twitter from 2019.

A few companies came up, I will list them.

Wifi.com.ng
Tizeti
Cyberspace Nigeria
Swift
Fiberone
Vodacom
Mainone
Estream
Airtel
MTN
Ipnx
Cobranet
Spectranet
Some people complained about some of them based on personal experiences.

Some of the complains were that some have terrible customer service. People’s comments made me take Tizeti out of my mind. People also praised Swift except from the fact that it was expensive and Fiberone so I decided to check them. Google helped me see their different prices and other reviews.

I later bought Fibreone because it was cheaper for the unlimited data I was looking for.
