LongJohnS:

Inasmuch as your story is sorrowful, Its quite pathetic to see a full fledged Nigerian like yourself been scammed by these cheap chinko chaps. What on earth would make you fall for such lies of ever winning to Paris Do you think life is so easy that just with a couple of likes on Facebook, then off you are to Paris?? Lolz wake up!!! Man you bleaped up big time for ever allowing yourself to be molested by tecno. At least now you would know better than becoming one of all these "free to air" tecno marketers, who are constantly constituting nuisance here on nairaland all in the name of going to Paris.

Chisoooos Christ!!!... Why is everybody talking about Paris?
Is going to Paris the only prize in the competition?
Did I ever say that I wanted to go to Paris?
Pls, some of u need to calm down with the kind of comment u dish out.

I've modified the Thread, pls check the first page.

I forgot to say this.
Do you even know that I had more likes than the declared winners?

How can someone with 39 likes win someone with 200+ verified likes?

*see the pix of some of the winners below*

TheSpecial0ne:
All the promo's them dey do 4 naija na pure scam.

I never knew

lekjons:
they did the same to me during their "future me" contest, they messaged me that they'll reward me and i should send my phone number, which i did immediately..

weeks passed, i didn't hear anything, i decided to remind them about their promise.. they said there must have been some mistakes, that they're sorry and i should send my number again. i did.

since then, nothing! they ignored all my messages till i finally gave up..

Thank God people are coming out to tell their own story

kene05:
I keep saying it, times without numbers, some of these promos are prearranged to boost their sales, i wouldn't be surprised if those other names on the list are their staffs... Just a make believe thingy.. Take heart man... Shit happens.....

It's OK.
Let everyone learn from this

You might be wondering why I said "us" in the headline. Well, this is because there's another nairalander that is also in this same shoe and I'm sure that he'll like to post here too.


Lalasticlala and Seun, pls I'm begging you, give this thread the highest publicity that it needs.

That is the reason why I have decided to bring the matter to nairaland so that everyone can see and learn from it.
I have also received a lot of complaints from other people that this same thing has happened to them before from Tecno, and that they didn't get any help.

I don't want this to continue because it is injustice and it's not fair at all.

I was furious and annoyed because, I suffered to beg for those likes and I spent day and night making sure that I'll have the required Facebook likes to win in the competition.
I was furious because I fulfilled all the terms and conditions of the competition, yet I didn't win.

So I decided to message Tecno and asked them why I didn't win because I clearly fulfilled everything that they asked.
I sent countless messages to them via their email, their Facebook account and their twitter account but they didn't respond to me, they simply kept mute.
I would've said maybe they've not seen my message, but it's not true because their social media account is still active and they're still posting there.

Days passed and I didn't get any message or call from tecno. I kept on waiting and hoping that they'll announce the winners soon.
Last Saturday, Tecno released the list of final winners and my name wasn't there in the list. I was surprised and anxious to know why my name didn't make it to the list.
TECNO said that I didn't send in my details before the deadline. But I sent in my details before the deadline. Infact, I sent is as soon as they asked us to start sending our details.

After some days, tecno released the names of their "shortlisted" winners on Facebook and I made the list.
They gave an instruction that the shortlisted winners should send in their details on or before Monday 9th May 2016.
I sent my details to them on that day they posted the message via their Facebook inbox and their email address.
I sent my details to them on the 7th of May 2016. (meaning, I sent it before the deadline).

I kept waiting for when they'll announce the winners. But before they announced the winners, someone from tecno sent me a message that I have been shortlisted and that I should send her my Boom player id to her, which I did.

I beg for likes on Facebook and I was able to achieve 222 Facebook likes (see pix below)

*Modified*
I've been told by Tecno to run another entry, that the competition is still on. They claim that they was a mistake with my details (which is not true).
Since I cannot kill myself, I've decided to run another entry just to see if they can keep to their promise.

What I need now is Facebook likes.
And I need your support.

_____________________________________________________
One morning while reading through nairaland's phone section, I came across a thread about Tecno Boom J8 competition. Since I own a Boom J8, I decided to check it out.
It was about a tecno competition that'll reward people who post a particular music Playlist from their boom player on Facebook and get a lot of likes from their friends.
The winners will then be selected every week and they'll reward the winners based on the Facebook likes that they had with:
A trip to Paris,
A Boom j8 phone,
Or a Boom speaker.
I opted in to the competition, followed their instructions diligently and beg for likes from my friends and even from nairaland members.

You can read more about the competition here: http://www.tecno-mobile.com/boomj8paris/

Philo101:
Unconfirmed news has it that NYSC batch A stream two orientation period might be shifted indefinitely due to the mass action planned by labour unions and students following the announcement by the federal government about the price of petrol (N145).
I really hope this is not true because I will personally ginger the matter. LoL.
Watching time as it crawls into 13th May

EVERYTHING IN NIGERIA IS GOING TO KILL YOU

What’s the way forward? Well, we will take our punishment lying down. Anyone looking for a protest to launch their political career should find another topic. As for me, I will simply try to insulate myself against policies like this. My sympathies to all the Nigerians who have little or no control over their economic fates. They are going to have a very bad year. But, at least, we can still curse.

And so:

-Here’s to you, my dear President Buhari: shame on you for your unwillingness to cut down official waste and your willingness to add to the economic burdens of Nigerians.

-Here’s to APC and their collection of fools: shame on you for taking our side when you had no power and for suddenly seeing the other side now that you have power.

– Here’s to PDP and their collection of fools: shame on you for being PDP, and for being so bad that Buhari started to look good to Nigerians.

And if any of you above-listed assholes pops into my comments to defend why ordinary Nigerians—and not the government—should suffer this 2016, may the 401 gods of Ife confer eternal suffering on you and your descendants.


Ayo Sogunro was called a “paid APC agent” when he criticised the inefficiencies of the Jonathan administration. Because people are forgetful or mischievous, he has now been called a “closet GEJ sympathiser” for criticising the inefficiencies of the Buhari administration. Ayo Sogunro is unimpressed by both labels. But, he remains committed to the Change agenda.

ASK: “WHAT HAS NIGERIA DONE FOR ME

As I have suspected for a while, the unsolicited trekking I undertook from Yaba to Ojota to protest the 2012 subsidy removal is now just an intensive workout session. President Buhari and his team of economic wanksters have taken a leaf from Jonathan and his team of economic wanksters. Worse, the new economists in town have outdone Jonathan’s ambitions of N141/l; they have pushed the price up to N145/l—in spite of Fashola’s touted logic on falling crude oil prices.

What does Nigeria really do for anyone? The government owns and controls all land, waterways and natural resources. Yet, Nigerians still pay taxes, charges, tolls, tariffs, rates, fees, duties and even bribes just to get standard services. Free education is a packaged myth. Low-cost housing is non-existent. Subsidised agricultural products—you joke. Welfare? Universal healthcare? Nada. The only shambolic thing this country has attempted to give all citizens freely is the fake-ass subsidy on petroleum. And now, even that has to go.


REMEMBER OCCUPY NIGERIA

Unfortunately, the partisan foolishness that rented part of our brains during the 2015 elections has now decided to buy the entire space. In the midst of this depressing news, some APC fools and some PDP fools have decided to exchange follies and turn the fate of Nigerians into a popularity contest between Jonathan and Buhari. A plague on both your houses!

Do not let these “my-intelligence-is-for-sale-to-politicians” activists deceive you with rhetoric: Occupy Nigeria was not about the character of Jonathan. For Bleep’s sake, Jonathan hardly had any character in late 2011. He came into power in 2010 and spent the first year pussyfooting as a nice guy.

Do not let these irrational mathematicians deceive you with figures and claims of “no money”: Occupy Nigeria was not about numbers.

So, what was Occupy Nigeria about?

Occupy Nigeria was a resistance against the imposition of additional economic costs on Nigerians despite continuous government wastage. The subsidy removal meant low-income and poor Nigerians—some 112 million people—would face an increase in the price of transportation, raw materials, services and consumer goods. Yet, politicians will continue to get cars, houses, allowances, healthcare, special assistants, private jets and whatnot. This injustice was unjustifiable in 2012 and it is unjustifiable in 2016.

Occupy Nigeria was not the half-assed anti-GEJ campaign that APC’s revisionists are trying to make it. For those who remember, Occupy Nigeria was a protest against the collective wastage of Nigeria’s government inclusive of ACN, APGA, ANPP, CPC and PDP. Occupy Nigeria would have happened whether or not GEJ was president.

I pity the conscience of the APC fools congratulating themselves on their ability to move from Occupy Nigeria to Partisan Nigeria. Their justification—that Buhari’s government has integrity—is utter rubbish. Integrity is earned not conferred. While Buhari may have personal integrity, his government is yet to PROVE that it is different from previous governments. Buhari’s focus, so far, has been on tackling the corruption in Jonathan’s government. Nothing indicates that Buhari’s government will not be proven equally corrupt come 2019. In any case, what comfort will the factory worker whose expenses no longer fit into her income derive from the knowledge that Buhari, and not Jonathan, is responsible for depriving her?

I pity the conscience of the PDP fools rejoicing that GEJ has been “vindicated”. How does a latter evil justify an earlier evil? GEJ was wrong and Buhari is also wrong. Their maths may be correct but their choice of victim is wrong. Whatever the economists may say, there is absolutely no reason why ordinary Nigerians—and not the government—should pay the price for inefficiency. If GEJ had sold his jets and zoos rather than attempt to remove subsidy, maybe he would have won a second term.

ONE DAY, THE POOR WILL EAT THE ECONOMISTS

But what about the maths? Maths can be written and re-written. The government issues oil blocs, licenses oil mines, controls the borders, controls foreign exchange, and licenses marketers. Yet, it insists, somehow, that Nigerians must pay for government incompetence and political patronage. If the government can’t lower the maths or fix the scams, then it should bear the brunt. Why should Nigerians suffer because the government is inefficient as a subsidy policeman? It is that simple.

But Nigerian politicians are all selfish. Buhari will rather maintain a presidential fleet than reduce the Budget. Some say there is no available foreign exchange–there is never available foreign exchange for Nigerians. Yet, politicians are still mooching on our resources. From the President to the most junior legislator, these politicians are fed, clothed, bathed, transported, secured, and may even get buried at the expense of the Nigerian state. Where does the money come from? Damn, even the Obama family pays for their own meals in the White House. When we are done selling all the stupid cars piling up in Abuja then—and only then—can the president look Nigerians in the eye and say: “Folks, it’s your turn to pay up. Otherwise, why should Nigerians pay for the crimes of the looters when the moochers are having a field day?”
