This man is old na! The lady could be his daughter's mate, what is he marring for again?. I'm sure he won't even last up to a minute at his age.
That's because you did not hear about the sixty-something year old man that sent a lady to the great beyond over a 5-day marathon kini...fear experienced old men...they know what they are doing.

Wow.... As if I knew. My Ph.D research proposal is on Achieving sustainable E-commerce and retail business in Nigeria. (Problem and Prospect). Jumia, konga and dealdey all included in the research.

The honest truth is, the Nigeria climate is not conducive enough for online retail business. It is cheaper to move goods via railway system than roads and air but no good railway network in the country.
Again, there is low penetration of credit system in the country, we only used debit card. Lastly , these online companies like Jumia and co don't put their time to creat any innovative idea to deal with these setbacks. Rather they are only concern about making profits.

My research is gonna be interesting.
If I was your external examiner, I will shred you on the day of your defence. Nigeria is and has been ripe for online business. We have a working, cheap and reliable postal system (NIPOST), sellers don't use them, we need to ask them why. We have several overland transporters who carry goods in addition to passengers for a small fee. On the other hand buyers do not get the options they want in their local markets hence the need for online retail business and the varied options it provides.

A marketplace like the one I stand behind that puts buyers needs first, thereby building trust while ensuring sellers stay on their toes to keep their customers happy is exactly what is needed. Just like ebay but designed for Nigerians and the peculiarities in the Nigerian online marketplace.

Xisnin:
Amazon is guilty of everything you listed up there in a addition to being on the list of
one of the worst companies to work for.
A successful company isn't necessarily doing everything right, neither is a struggling
company getting everything wrong.
There was no mention of Amazon in my submission sir. But I posit that a successful company must be doing many of the things that matter right and vice versa.

I think you meant to quote justli...but his point is valid and supports my position.
CrimeRe: Drunk Man Mistakenly Drank Insecticide At Lagos Chinese Restaurant, Dies by lobell: 9:11am On Mar 26, 2018

He died in active service nah.


Why would the man put insecticide in a bottle and place near a water bottle? Something is fishy about this shaa

To prevent things like this, is why petrol is dyed, so you differentiate it from kerosene.
What is that picture on your profile?

You can start selling something online...you could even be reselling what someone else in your neighbourhood is selling. Just repackage it and make profit off it, while you wait for that job. You'd be surprised what people will pay for.

Signup today and let us walk you through. Signing up and listing your items is completely free! We only get paid when you do.
BusinessRe: Jumia’s Major Investor, Rocket Internet, Seeks Exit Via IPO by lobell:
Online marketplaces need to build trust in buyers over profit and over a long period. They have to ensure buyers get what they pay for or get their money back, not some silly vouchers. Also, they need to penalize sellers who consistently receive bad reviews.

Ebay has been successful because it is a buyers market. You cannot as a seller afford to sell substandard goods or ship defective products or take a month to send an item that should have been delivered in a week maximum. You must also describe what it is you are selling to the letter, stating all flaws and damages...basically, full disclosure is encouraged. Who go buy go still buy am like that.

Buyers need to feel safe transacting on any platform. The customer is king and should be treated as such. All existing marketplaces in Nigeria place too much power in the hands of sellers and this is why a new challenger is needed in this space. One that strikes a balance between maintaining profitability for the seller and keeping the buyer safe and happy. One modelled after Ebay, ensuring sellers stay compliant while building trust in buyers.

Guess who that new challenger is? Read beneath the lines.

I was thinking you had an exchanger in mind. Forexcrow will serve as an escrow to ensure you get paid and the buyer also gets what s/he paid for. That's what forexcrow services stands for, the trusted third party to all your online transactions.

Hi thanks for your interest and concern. I've never heard of eBay for Nigerians.

Units still available.
It's a new marketplace designed specifically to address the pay-before-delivery/pay-after-delivery dichotomy currently facing online businesses in Nigeria. take advantage of the services if offers and grow your business across the country.

Bring them to the villa, feed them presidential meal, give them some change in brown envelop and send them away...back to the drudgery of their mundane lives, traumatized for the rest of their lives. Their sacrifice wrought nothing for themselves, their families or their communities.

The real winners here are the boko haram peeps who made upward of 2 million euros and the organizers who would have made only God knows how much in readiness for 2019 elections.

Pshaw!
