These Bamboo app people sha na OD£ seh.....

I've been trying to access the app since, make person go do investments and I can't access shite.

For over 2 weeks and even few days ago I've been seeing other investments apps doing updates to their apps on the Play store, some even a month ago in anticipation of the IPO.
I know this cos I have like 4 of the apps... Piggy, Trove, Bamboo, Cowrywise.

Bamboo no reason all these ones... Now app don dey crash few hours IPO open.

I was getting really pissed off this morning thinking it was my useless Airtel network at work once again.... Not until I tried browsing on other websites to test the network before I realised the issue is with Bamboo.

Why dem no anticipate this and upgrade their systems, servers and app weeks before this oven some that did upgrade 5 days ago.

This country we no just serious at all. 😡😡

If Nigeria is indeed democratic and voting counts, why do things like this keep happening?

Does the price of iPhone or Toyota affect the prices of other commodities?

Oil is an international commodity whose price is determined globally

Every nation in the world is currently paying increased prices for oil now

I open my bamboo app make i sell some of my Zenith Bank shares, this is what i have been seeing since morning. I thought it was bamboo having a downtime na why i no panic. I guess the Dangote IPO launch may have contributed to this..

Only people depend solely on oil. China has alternatives. Tea pot refineiries are resurging.

Bold of you to assume nigeria is democratic. If you vote, you have no right to complain when things go south because you are part of the problems.

BlueRayDick:
As in….. Since I was very young I saw my dad put every windfall or spare cash he gets into naija stock . He was always having one company’s stock he’s planning to buy based on projected performance in the stock market .

When the financial meltdown happened , most of the stock went to dust. Post global financial crisis he didn’t relent , he still kept investing . New company’s like Dokpesi’s DAARSAT listed …… the existing ones did rights issue and baba still pack money put .My old man Dey always follow business news religiously during news hour at night monitoring performance of stock .

I commend the optimism of fellow Nigerians seeing only the positives in this IPO, but things wey I don know through lived experience no go allow me see only the bright side to this Dangote IPO.

That period you mentioned the financial crisis was what soured Nigerian stock markets for me

I also got into stock market and was doing well. At the high point I had up to 6m in it that I had planned my US school fees on. Suddenly the financial crisis happened the Nigerian stock market froze trading for months for every one, in that time I suffered, by the time they resumed trading my total holdings that were up to 5m then all crashed as no one wanted to buy

I sold everything for under 1m and never went back to Nigerian market again

In the buildup to that 2008 crash, many people poured money into the stock exchange, even pastors were taking money from trusted friends and congregation to invest in the market, many relationships got ruined as a result

Yes o, a lot of elderly people that I know who were thinking of retiring on income from their numerous stocks held in different companies on the Nigerian stock market suffered irreparable loss that period.

Even some big men who borrowed money from banks and invested in stock, they were affected then. That was how some of them ended up on AMCON debtor's list when AMCON was established to buy the bad debts of those banks.

In the struggle for daily bread and survival, people do anything

Some political bigwigs today had to prostrate and beg too

Some even went naked to carry sacrifice

Let me ask, If dem tell you to wear sack cloth, ashes and barb gorimapa to get sure HoR seat wont you do it

This was Wike kneeling for Jonathan

It was said that Tinubu had to prostrate to Afenifere people to get the AD ticket in 1999

OBJ had to beg Atiku to get the return ticket in 2003

Kneeling and begging na small thing when the prize is generational wealth

When Wike was seeking power he was almost carrying Madam patience on his back and na small remain make he dey sit on Mama Patience lap like a toddler

This is the thing

The primaries are already done and dusted and that madam what's her name is already the nominee

So unless they are going to have her 'step down' I am not sure what this is about

Unless

1)these are old videos they have decided to release to humiliate Desmond further or

2)Desmond like all of them chopped money and they are going to sicc EFCC on him.

As I understand Sanwo Olu tried to run a palace coup against the speaker Obasa. Obasa was impeached and most people imho were not sorry to see him go. Then the man went to Abuja to do his own prostration and was miraculously unimpeached.

BlueRayDick has a better accounting of the story, but my understanding is that Desmond is somehow the fall guy in this saga. Seems he had the most to benefit as if he did another term he would have been eligible for speaker of the house.

You beg to be accommodated back into the chopping gang which might include future ticket even HoR or appointment abi you think he will go back to Nollywood to collect 100k per role?

You beg so that the law doesnt come for you and you are able to enjoy your loot in peace

Why do you think Fubara is still kissing the as5 of Wike today? You think its because of the 2027 ticket that has already been shared?

Obanikoro that insulted and brought army to Lagos against Tinubu, took newspaper adverts to apologize, who knows how much prostrating and kneeling went behind closed doors. Now he is Hamzat campaign coordinator and his son was HoR member

Na part of stooping to conquer

It's about getting contracts

Being part of the political family is not just about getting elected post but consideration for contracts

Gonna be hard to be the man's pikin right now tho. They will be trolling and roasting the hell out of them in school

Gbaja is NOT a nice man at all.

You think if they had demanded that Obanikoro prostrate to Tinubu in public even on TV or at a rally he won't? Given that he stands to gain

Public or private, if he is pardoned, this is a small prize to pay
In the world where People dey prostrate to nack baddie

This picture of Wike kneeling doesn't depict the same thing as that of Mr Lover boy.

So if APC is relegated today, Desmond go commit seppuku?

You have lost. It's over. What's with the extra ridicule? Will Gbaja give him the HoR seat again?

Make man dey behave like man, abeg

People have fallen out with their supposed political godfathers, and they even came back without embarrassing their unborn grandchildren on the Internet.

See as e kneel down sef.

Nna ehn! I feel so ashamed

While you may be right about the bolded, the truth is Desmond is actually very desperate......he knows there's no life for him outside APC Lagos. It's not he has any goodwill with the younger generation or has a name that will ensure he continues to chop outside political office.

It is desperation and fear of what will become of him now that he's estranged with his political base that is making him do like mumu.

The guy no too get sense at all.....neither does he have the kind of liver u expect from him.

The truth is, this is Nigerian politics, he has no choice, especially if he wants to remain a politician in Lagos State. Gbaja through Asiwaju and APC control Surulere and is influential in the politics of the state. Every political decision that affects Surulere and many aspects of Lagos go through Gbaja.

At 52, Desmond is still young in politics, while at 64 Gbaja is still going to be around for a while. Ambode did the same thing to Asiwaju, difference is we don't have videos but we know there was a lot of begging. He has since been reintegrated into the party and will have to wait another opportunity which will happen in the near future.

Desmond's "begging" isn't about today, it is about tomorrow, otherwise, he will fizzle out. Lagos has a ton of young and bright politicians waiting in the wings for an opportunity. I think this was released to further embarrass him, how Desmond responds going forward will determine a lot. In comparison to Ambode, Desmond's is worse because of how he conducted himself publicly in the buildup and on the day of election.

Woefully..... Till now I no get access.

It's like na Bamboo the whole retail investors wan use invest.

Abeg make Una tell them there's other platforms to use too like Cowrywise and Piggyvest.

Na the IPO go cause am.
I no fit access the app for hours. And I was logged out.

People prolly just panicking and trying to get a share by all means.
Most likely many people don't know they have like 31 days to apply for the shares.

also, desmond is not really a politician as far as i can tell. they just dashed him the seat, likely because they saw him as a youthful face of the party. he did not bring anything to the table and as far as i can tell, he did not use the opportunity to build a political base. basically if they swap him out - no difference. likely his sole target was don't piss gbaja off
