IyanAtiEgusi:Please which one of the two is Yoruba? And which one is not Yoruba? Abi the two both of them are all Yoruba ni? If Yoruba is amaka then why is the leading Yoruba city a water-less scamdemic slum despite over a century of being the capital of amalgamated Nigeria with heavy federal investment in seaports, airports, roads, bridges, telecommunications infrastructure etc? Hopefully you will use the same intelligence for knowing Yoruba amaka between the two tech guys to see why Tinubu, Fashola, Ambode and Sanwo Olu steal the revenues (IGR, federal allocation and PPP funds) as well as loans from the people instead of employing workers to provide basic services and utilities. obonujoker: Lawmaker scores Lagos Water Corporation low |

TheManofTomorrow:Decentralized wallet / exchange is different from a non custodial wallet / exchange. Most decentralized exchanges are non custodial by design, as they align with the principles of decentralization, but not all non custodial exchanges are fully decentralized... so maybe u are right. If its not Nigeria's first decentralized exchange it's probably, most likely not the first non custodial exchange |

SapaProMax:Keep deceiving yourselves. You think those from the elite universities in the West are trained to dress well and be presentable just for fun? What you don't realize is that what people see outside is the very platform upon which what is inside the skull will be given an opportunity to show forth. Nigerians have always built this over sabi attitude of always doing more than the teacher. Anyone, at all, who "blew" without giving themselves a good image actually did it by sheer luck or coincidence. The society is not stupid. Keep your gallas or marlian hair and approach an angel investor and see if they won't question your ability to manage thier money if you canot manage yourself. |
