You are doing well big man....keep it up
I actually think he's rather a SMALL MAN!!!
You don't fight your customer in a public..What I would have expected is simple sorry to the customer, we would do better next time..Just one line and case is close..The rest of us here will take the battle if the clients continue to malign him...Luckily, he has not been accused of scam; just poor customer care and that is EVIDENT even from his response here...To climb ladder hard o, to fall yakata na ABC...
In his line of biz, you will meet all sort of customer ; the impatience, the not so good, the knuckle head, even outright werey client but you have a responsibility to MANAGE them all, and sometimes when you fail because of your own imperfection, you maintain your CALM and DECORUM and not acting like a tout..
A client bought an item worth 200k only from us last week and returned it after 72 hours that she doesn't like it and ask for a refund! The report got to my desk for approval, and I spoke to the client and she was saying rubbish so I rejected it! Later my boss called me and advice that I should approve, not because the client was right but because we have a NAME to protect and we can afford to refund! We made over 5 billion worth of sales last month and it was our highest figure ever, and we are still celebrating . Why allow this '200k' to spoil our joy? I learnt a valuable lesson that moment..The Yorubas here will remember that popular saying " ONIYANGI MA BA TEMI JE, ASO ALA NI MO WO!!! Do better oga.

Bros, you have been doing biz here for a long time..I did patronise you once!! I remember coming to that your area at iyana-iba, a day to nig first COVID holiday!!! I bought a phone and paid in cash...To be honest with you, I am now very scared of you reading this nonsense you're typing here...what is the biz of that young man with the bat3 you bought? You owned the phone, you decided yourself that the bat3 is bad, hence the prob with the phone, you bought the bat3 so as to give a seemingly perfect phone to the new owner, you later find out the phone had more deeper issue that just bat3!! You now concluded that an innocent customer that sent you his hard earned money should be responsible for your foolish decision! Why do nig biz men behave like this? Why do we always act fraudulently or reason along fraudulent manner? I notice even a seemingly genuine naija guy is just waiting for an opportunity to scam you... Pls do the needful sir...You're supposed to refund with apologies for wasting the guys time for presenting a phone that has motherboard problem but you presented it as bat3 problem...You should be arrested!

Except I am wrong, ordinarily, before now, that was the original purpose of this 'clearance' thread.

People sold used items off for low prices here. I have been here when legit people sold off items ridiculously low.
If I remember one time, I saw a perfectly working car being legit sold off at ridiculously low price here because it was just packed in the house without being used. It was gone within an hour of the ad. I think the buyer attested to it working fine and I never read of any issues afterwards.

Let's stop making excuses for scammers to have a filled day duping people of their money.
It is sad to see people get scammed, especially in this present economy. There are scammers everywhere and it is imperative that you protect yourself and guard your hard earned money judiciously...We have given enough tips on what you need to do to recognize scammer, also how you should conduct yourself as a buyer .. This same guy has been scammed before on this platform and we gave numerous advice on what he should do going forward! You cannot stop scammer from their nefarious activities but you can protect yourself and when you failed, albeit gullibly to do so, you should have yourself to blame...How would you advice someone that saw a ridiculously cheap product online and he/she started by SENDING transport money? T/P to do what? This boys IQ must be ridiculously low... When I saw his message , the food I was eating almost went Tru my nose!!! I don't know whether to laugh or to get mad at him...that is how painful it is...People like him makes the scamming biz dey boom.

All these nonsensẹ́ will not stop if you don't face the initiator of the troubles. Stop speaking to both of us when you can't caution him each time he starts his mádness. In that 2 years, no single time have I quoted that guy first before and no one has ever called him to order here but y'all will start forming peace maker when I unleash hẹ́ll on him.

It doesn't work like that. At the instant where he quoted me first is when you should warn him of his act. Sincerely, I won't speak further if I ever see anything like that but you guys will wait till I start putting him where he belongs.
To be honest, I can't caution him because I do not have the authority to do so. We can only appeal and that has been done by honest hearted individual...I also have heated debate that have resulted into insult here but let's know when to move on...those things should not bother you.. both of you have shown deep seated hatred and I am genuinely worried. This is a faceless forum...If ever, I get to met anyone here physically, those little things we do can begin to define how I might perceive you to be..Adult exchanging insult on a faceless forum for two years is not good abeg..We only need ONE PERSON to act Right! Just imagine for a second if he's the ONLY ONE insulting you for two years and he get no response or vice versa, common!!!!!!Not too late. I beg you...Let's banter, let us cruise, let us insult BRIEFLY if need be because we are naija after all but let us move on..Hatred should have no place......ABEG

You guys have been on each other's 'neck' for close to two years...

We have appeal to both of you in the past to just move on, atleast one person should be the 'bigger person' and IGNORE!!!
To be honest, two adult going on each others throat for two years seems to me to be more of a psychological and much more deeper fight 'within' than 'without'... Both of you may need to look INWARD!!! Speak to your inner self.

The price (seen & unseen) for fraud is way too steep!!!! I still don't understand why anyone on this platform would prefer it than being legit ...
Look at the regular names on this platform before they misbehave, see what they were making while they were legit....The other lady that messed up because of just 200k or less is no where to be found since last year .Do you know how much she could have gotten as profit since last year till date if she stays legit? The reward for honesty is quite profound!
Do you have an idea how much the gadget guy makes on this thread alone, no shop, no tax, just data? Why would a sensible human leave that for a fraud that might not be more than 100k, then loose all the goodwill!

He has also taken time to explained why he has chosen that model and I fully agree with him..Every biz person is at liberty to choose what work best for him/her...Thrice I have patronise him and am not disappointed..Few days ago, I still made a transfer for a product and am not even in Lagos yet, still in Uyo and I intend to pick up anytime am in Lagos..
Futurefocus only owes us ONE THING, and that is INTEGRITY/HONESTY..and once he continues to show that in his dealing with us, am not sure we need anything again....Moreover and to be sincere, his prices are very very fair and most importantly he offers FULL REFUND if you're not satisfied and you can also meet up physically in an agreed location, check the product and pay! What else sir/ma?

BusinessRe: Akinwumi Adesina Says This Dangote Issue Is Shocking - Otedola by dapotemi: 7:24am On Jul 24, 2024
malali:
Akinwunmi Adesina,

Your passionate defense of Dangote’s monopolistic tendencies is misplaced and ultimately detrimental to Nigeria's long-term economic health. Let’s be clear: the open free market should determine winners and losers, not subjugation or forced patronage.

Monopoly and Market Distortion


You argue that monopoly exists due to high barriers to entry or high capital costs. While this may hold some truth, it does not justify the creation or maintenance of monopolies, especially not through governmental favoritism. Dangote has benefitted immensely from the Nigerian state: free limestone, free land for cement factories, some of the cheapest non-unionized labor in the world, unlimited tax concessions, and numerous import waivers. Despite these advantages, what has been the result? The cement business remains a monopolistic cartel. Do Nigerians enjoy cheap cement today? The answer is a resounding no. Dangote was one of the first to hike cement prices, exercising his market dominance at the expense of Nigerian consumers.

Dangote Refineries and Energy Sector Monopoly


Now, you suggest we should hand over the energy sector, crucial for 300 million people, to a single man. This is both dangerous and short-sighted. Dangote’s decision to build a $19.5 billion refinery was his own business choice, and with any business venture comes inherent risks. He should have anticipated the possibility of buying crude at market rates and selling refined products in an open market. Expecting the NNPC to capitulate to his demands reeks of entitlement and undermines the very principles of fair competition and market dynamics.

Misplaced Sympathy and Entitlement


Your attempt to elicit sympathy by emphasizing Dangote’s massive investment ignores the fundamental fact that he should have considered market contingencies. Dangote should compete on equal footing with other businesses, not seek special treatment. Throwing a tantrum and trying to manipulate crude sales and petrol procurement from the NNPC signals a disturbing sense of entitlement.

Economic Independence and Fair Competition

Nigeria’s energy sector, like any other, must remain open to fair competition. Your call for protectionist measures to favor Dangote is a call to undermine the very fabric of a free market economy. The energy sector should be driven by innovation, efficiency, and competition, not by monopolistic practices.

A Call for Economic Justice

The days of allowing a few individuals to dominate critical sectors of our economy must end. We have seen what happens when monopolies are allowed to flourish – prices soar, quality suffers, and innovation stagnates. It’s time for Nigeria to embrace a truly competitive market, where every player has an equal opportunity to succeed.

Adesina, you call for support and protection of local industries, but true support lies in fostering a competitive environment where no single entity can dictate terms. We must not surrender our economic future to a few individuals. The Nigerian people deserve better – they deserve fair competition, better prices, and improved quality of goods and services.

Nigeria's economic landscape should be determined by open competition and market forces, not by entitlements and monopolistic control. It’s time for a new era of economic justice and fairness, where the interests of the many are prioritized over the privileges of the few.


Sincerely,
Malali.
This is another brilliant submission by you sir/ma. I surely enjoy reading this but I disagree with some fact but I'll state just one for now due to time constraints...Dangote or any investor cannot compete with importers..
Nobody can compete with importers and 'importing' is actually not a biz, it's abnormal like Adesina said but we have made it normal...
Dangote refinery can compete with OTHER REFINERY!! Dangote cement is competing with BUA and others..
To be honest, leaving our oil supply to the hand of just one man is also scary but I believe reason, and I mean reasonably reason can prevail..There must be a way this thing can be done..We can have a win-win...
If you're producing/manufacturing anything in this country and you allow people to import same thing from abroad, that you plant will die, naturally.
What are the advantage of Dangote refinery to our economy on the long run? Do you know the forex we will save? Do you know how much we are loosing to all this importation?
I respect your view!

Just thinking.......if 100k too small for a month, then how do family men with kids, who earn a salary of about 30, 40 or 50k cope in this economy? I'm sure there are family men who earn this low and they still find a way to take care of their family. How do they cope? Omo, wahala dey this country. Naija is seriously a time bomb waiting to explode! God help us
Nig is saturated with low income earners..drivers, janitors, clerk, office assistant, warehouse officers, are categorized as junior cadre and MANY do not go home with 100k..
Most people in level 4,5 and maybe 6 in alausa earn lower than 100k. Lagos pay higher than 99% of other state..This folks are married with kids and they get buy, albeit difficult I must acknowledge....
You see ONLINE, all of us are billionaire...better you used your tongue to count your teeth!!!If PBAT dey nairaland he won't increase minimum wage because na billionaire full here...until you open app see Dem asking for jump start cable to start their car...
If you're conducting a research on poverty index you better don't used online for any demographics because we are all Erimus here...I have never seen any poor man on social media!
