So it means I have been blocking people that should have helped me😁.
I don't keep contacts, I don't keep relationship, I just exist alone. I hardly even call my mother. My wife sef don tire for me. I can be on the phone browsing and never calling anyone. I can go 2-3days without calling my wife. If she wants to reach me sef, I tell send voice note. I call nobody except I need your help. If I don't need helo, I don't call.
grin

That tip is so key. If your contacts matter, either for personal/professional, back up your contacts NOW.

Don't mind him. Some people lack understanding before responding to comments.

He said losing access to his phone is what he can't live a week without; not losing his phone device.

Stop seeing evil in everyone. Sometimes you use a known snake to hurt or drives away a new snake. Keep em around. They can be useful.

But if you go to prison you will end up losing your phone, credibility and everlasting stain that can never be removed

Shush!!! The richest black man in world won't have IT and OS dev. Gurus to tell him how to secure his contacts?
The little mind you have is the one that has been messed up by motivational speakers, Nigerian big boys, and Nigerian "billionaires."

In your small mind, you think that since he runs a billion-dollar company, he has everyone, including "IT and OS dev. Gurus" (whatever those mean) at his beck and call.

grin grin grin

Warren Buffett was, and still is, many times richer than Dangote, yet still cannot use a laptop.
He doesn't use a smartphone and says it proudly.

Moreover, let's assume he has those "IT and OS dev. Gurus" walking around with him at home; how good have you confirmed they are, beyond that guy you replied to?
Re: I’d Rather Go To Prison Than Lose My Phone - Dangote by fabolouz1(m): 9:03am On Oct 20
From his explanations it's obvious he doesn't do contact or information backups . Except there are incriminating substances on his phones , i don't see why losing it to be such a big deal.

I’m not seeing evil in everyone. Read what I wrote again. While you have a point, sometimes cutting them off totally is also the best option and a message to others

Nobody is small. Blocking contacts is a matter of personal preference.
Re: I’d Rather Go To Prison Than Lose My Phone - Dangote by nwirinedu(m): 9:33am On Oct 20
13000 useful contacts.

Narrow-mindedness. The only reason why most people have not cut you off is tolerance, not because you're a better person than the people you call snakes.

Exactly. Protecting one's mental health is one major reason why people block people. Everything is not a standard to be copied

I always back up phone contacts/ numbers by writing them in a note book in case of anything.

Lol... that's the lie.
Na people wey nor get money dey change phone like who dey try different bleaching creams.

Phone is not a wealth status for these folks. What's the utility of jumping from one phone to another every six months or new version?
You don't have the smallest idea of what the person you quoted is talking about so please learn.
Phone is not luxury to wealthy people but the more you stick to a device the more you expose yourself to hacks.

Nigerians can copy anything as long as the person is great; forgetting that some things are purely personal preferences.

I store my contacts on my sim card, what about that?

It's just as risky as being on the phone o.

1. The sim card could become unreadable by any device - na chip dey inside and chips fit go psycho.

2. No body prays to have their phone stolen or misplaced, but even if you retrieve your sim, those contacts are gone - you get a blank sim.

You likely already have an active and personal gmail (android) that you can switch to as your primary contact storage (copy existing contacts there too (I'm sure there's something similar for iPhone and iCloud).
