I learnt someone went to UBA bank to apply for Deactivation of SMS alert messages since they now charge up to 6 naira per SMS, only for him to there and was told they are going to deactivate both the SMS and Email notification

You can imagine the extent these Banks will go, just to extort us

You're right....simple and humble. If he happened to be a Nigerian, there must be a many titles like Alhaji, Chief, High Chief, Extra High Chief, King, Eze ndi Eze, Ogbuefi, Otumba, Idu, Obong, Kabiesi, etc.
Africans are just backwards in everything. All we know is eat, sex and dance.
sex is important now, without sex you won't be here bro

China is still not a japa destination. Chai! Nigeria is in serious wahala. Strangers are cashing out and Nigerians are suffering.

The owner tried no be small. Opay is now the leading fintech app in Nigeria and Africa
Moniepoint seems to have benched Opay in terms of volume, reach and acceptability.

Recently, I did a transaction through Moniepoint in the middle of nowhere near a jungle..

My regular bank was telling me Bank enquiry failed.

These guys have shown at least in the area of banking that it's not rocket science to do things right
We just lack the willpower

Nigerian have done better things than OPay.

All commercial banks in Nigeria are fully owned by Nigerians. Stop looking down on your country.

Nigerian guys need to focus more now on marrying Chinese ladies, they are going to be the next big thing after America, anyway, my Igbo brothers are representing us well in that aspect cool

You talk as if you own or invented Internet or satellite.
So you have to be Charles Babbage or Phillip Emeagwali before you think of how the data of a whole country is being shipped to China?

Traditional banks? BVN, NIN? At least I can be consider that my country is going to (if they have the sense) use that to boost their database.

Dey play? God and tell that to your mates. I have been into data mining, safety and analysis for over 10 years.

Someone wanted to make a transfer to an account number. Opay notified the person that the recipient account number is being reported of scam. The person canceled the transaction immediately.


This is the security we are talking about. Accounts linked to scam should be flagged and senders should get notifications of accounts linked to scam during transactions.
They are closer to the masses than the idiots at CBN

Meet the Owner of OPay in Nigeria

OPay, one of Nigeria’s leading fintech platforms, is owned by Chinese billionaire Zhou Yahui. He is the chairman of Opera Software, the parent company of OPay.

Originally founded as Paycom Nigeria Limited in 2013, OPay was rebranded after Opera acquired it. Zhou Yahui played a key role in its growth and holds about a 30% stake in the company. Under his leadership, OPay has become a major player in Nigeria’s digital payment space.
Thank you Mr Zhou!
Though I don't know you personally but you have made a positive impact on my life.
You lifted a burden on me and other Nigerians. You made our life easier.
Once again, thank you sir.
You really did well! You lifted
