blueAgent is it ok to celebrate the birth of Christ ( assuming it doesn't have pagan origin)? If yes then you can celebrate birthday but if no you can't.

Draslo:
I swear! What's the point of this rubbish when you can't challenge Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk, The Jagaban, Dangote, Adenuga, Atiku, Tony Elumelu, Davido, Wizkid, or even your local government chairman in terms of wealth?! F**king pointless and a total waste of time, resources and likely a human life.

One idiot will kill a not so innocent (alatenuje) girl, use her body parts for ritual only to build a 4-bedroom bungalow at Ikorodu with two Japanese cars in the compound. Spits!

Those guys belong to top cults. Don't let their bling bling deceive you

Sonnobax15:

Who needs a counsellor here in Nigeria when everybody is a potential counsellor that ushers out free advise without paying ?

You mean those fake motivational speakers

[quote author=DAVIDMOE post=100697272[b]]Nigerians would rather go to a pastor than visit a therapist. They think mental illness is spiritual.[/b]
Though you can make cool cash if you secure a job with NGOs.


You will get more opportunities in Germany, US or Canada.[/quote]Your statement is stereotypical and generalistic in nature. Such assertion is false to start with. Not all Nigerians seek counseling services from their pastors

Basher8583:
Yes on Nairaland but definitely not in reality. Wake up and open your eyes

HenryThegreat1 said the reality

buzmanjohn:
you don't have data to research about iPhone 11 sales in Nigeria.
The standard of living in Nigeria is below average so how come iPhone 11 is widely use? Did I said it it used by the poor

iPhone 11 is not widely use. It was on this platform that Tecno top the chart of mostly used phone in Africa (https://www.nairaland.com/6515045/tecno-overtakes-samsung-lead-african). The price of iPhone 11 is beyond the reach of an average Nigerian

masterfactor:
@bolded, next time use the original sentence instead of adding yours, that aside, what is the purchasing power of an average African excluding north Africa?, let focus on West African alone because that is techno,infinix and itel biggest market. What is the percentage of those that can afford flagship or mid rangers compare to those that can afford budget and entry level phone??. This are the bases I look at before coming into conclusion, even the tecno flagship device(tecno phantom), how many people could afford it. I prefer an entry level and budget phone from other brand than from big brand. in conclusion, this are the reason why tecno, infinix and itel will continue to dominate that position in African for a very long time.

We are saying the same thing however you got to be sure of your statistics (95%).

Nigeria is one of the most advanced countries in Africa, currently over 200 million people living in the country, and 172 million own at least one smartphone and have access to the internet, as the moment of writing this article, Nigerians own at least 400 smartphones both old and new ones.

Where is the source of this information and how was this statistics derived?
iPhone 11

Apple is the father of all smartphones brand because they are the one that first introduce the device before others do.

iPhone 11 is the most used smartphone in Nigeria, it trend in Nigeria the same year it was launched in the United States, Nigerian celebrities and other individuals that have the money started ordering for iPhone 11. One of the major specifications in this popular iPhone model is the special design in camera

This information is false. There is no empirical evidence or data to show that iPhone 11 is the most used phone in Nigeria. The standard of living in Nigeria is below average so how come iPhone 11 is widely use?
buzmanjohn please get your fact right with strong backing

Jimmyubah2:
Stop lying. No phone brand has resale value than xiaomi.
You could buy a xiaomi phone for 50k in 2019 and still sell it for 55k in 2020/2021.

It depend on the ability to buy.

Jestin:
Governor with sense ....not those gifting that nonsense program called big brother .

Big brother Naija is strictly for business

Odewaleadesoye:
Self-control is essential to success, in relation to your daily habits, your character, your attitude, your emotions, and your actions.

Brothers and Sisters reading this: never copy anyone's success because you don't know their source; never compromise your standard; don't give up on yourself. Your hustle will pay one day

It's so disgusting that this guy can't control himself.

That dude is not guilty until a competent court says otherwise. Why are some Nigerians judgemental ☹️☹️

Goldbw122:
Smile coverage continues to expand rapidly with our SuperFast 4G LTE internet available in Lagos, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Abuja, Benin City, Kaduna, Onitsha and Asaba. Smile is already Africa's largest 4G LTE provider. Make Smile your broadband provider of choice.
Check online, that might help.

Coverage is still poor.

It therefore mean that xiaomi, Oppo, real me and others have alot of work to do. Someone up there said that 95% of africans live below $500, I don't know where he got that statistics from however we can't rule the fact that most africans are poor. I was opportune to interview a mobile phone vendor. I asked why most Nigerians still purchase tecno ,infinix and itel, his response was brand loyalty and availability of spare parts. Then I ask can tecno introduce snapdragon chipset in their phones. He said yes however the buyers are not willing to pay except for few persons hence tecno is comfortable with mediatek since it is cheap. From our survey, I found that few Nigerians are technical incline with phone technology. Aside that, I also found that most guys watch out for phones which handles heavy games.

Indeed some Nigerians get moni. Why are some persons generalizing it's citizens to be poor

damiloladuke:
you wan compare Nigeria's population with that of Rwanda?

It has nothing to do with population

False news. Dragnet take note

Ebukacute:
Yes....that girl ran her mouth way too much...and funny enough all those people drumming support for her then were no where to be found when shit hit the fan.

Na so oh

Ebukacute:
But why would a 21 years old girl accuse a woman old enough to be her mother of paying her to arrange men for her...this is bad...very bad...
Fact is ada ran her mouth too much while chasing clouts and whether her death was coincidence or not I don't really pity her...her accusations are huge enough to make a feeble minded person commit suicide.

Exactly! This should teach others lesson

PrinceMajestic:
This old evil bitch has connived with her evil companion the prophet to sniff life out of the vulnerable powerless beautiful young girl for exposing their atrocities. May Her soul hunt her killers down. That's why I always tell pretty girls to stay away from religious practices

Ada Jesus did out of negligence not a supposed curse from a nollywood actress or Prophet.

sexiestharam:
Always be careful of statements you make! Even if she is innocent, nobody will ever believe. The tongue can make or break you! I will never look at madam Rita the same way again.

But you would pitied that parrot I suppose

Joiceee:
OK. I heard top up programs generally are not accredited by NUC. And might pose as a threat in future for those that wants to go into academics. How true?

KWASU is accredited

Joiceee:
yes I know about FUOYE but I heard in future top up programs might back fire. That was what stopped me from applying.

If Abuad could run top up, I see no reason why FUOYE can't. However, am sure of KWASU

PlayMaker14:
I remember how one frozen food company used the picture of Cristiano Ronaldo holding fish like Peter in the Bible.


Until these guys starts suing them for right infringement, they'll continue cashing out.

Exactly!.

obembet:
I still expecting guys to take this bold steps.

I believe it will work for them too



Lalasticlala

The ones interviewed by press are rarely employed

Kingcalls:
They also have cheap Samsung phone that can match tekno in price ....

Of course they. Samsung had to concentrate on low and mid range phones since that was Tecno leverage to be on top

SegFault:
Brother it is poverty, marketing is part of the reasons but poverty is a major factor.

Poverty is not bro. There is no established fact as it mere speculations which can be refuted. Any who blame it on poverty should be able to provide empirical evidence for back up

Plead:
Continue deceiving yourself. How many Nigerians/Africans can afford Samsung, apple, Oppo and xiaomi phones?

They are many who could afford it, this is a known fact. Don't let those index deceive you because at times it is not the true reality

Heineken:
lol bro this your signature ehn. What do you need sniper for?

Because I am tired of this life

What was responsible for the suicide attempt ?

Kingcalls:
Africa is the poorest continent per capita....what did u expect... in the Americas, Europe and Asia, iPhone tops ...those are rich continents

Tekno is not even among the top 10 phone brands in the world... 1 Samsung, 2 Huawei, 3, Apple, 4 Xiaomi, 5 oppo

If Samsung would top number 2 in Africa then the bolded text isn't enough justification. Samsung phones are expensive yet they still have buyers in Nigeria

Plead:
Poverty is the cause of this. If not for lack of money no sane individual will choose a tecno phone over a Samsung, apple, Oppo or xiaomi phone.

Poverty is not the cause bro rather good strategy and marketing campaign had made tecno to top African market
