This BBM chat didnt freak me for a day. I used BB bold2 and 5 but never took the chat serious. I always preferred Whatsapp.
The only social media app I use are WhatsApp and Nairaland. I like my privacy a lot

Bb did this to themselves, how can you have a not-so-powerful device with bad battery and never for once considered making improvements, most of their apps are paid for and require BB data to work. Imagine trying to use screen grabber only when you have BB subscription.

This same BB that my friend promised this babe for months that she never saw but her kitty paid for empty promises cheesy

No we won't, we are completely shifting from crude to gas,
solar wont beenough to charge those cars, electric trains, ships and heavy industries, we have one of the hugest reserves of gas, that is where the goldmine is.


nototribalist:
Am afraid what might happen to Nigeria soon, and I will explain why.

I remember when Nokia was reigning I couldn't believe 4-5 years later I would be able to buy BlackBerry Curve.

When I saw Android devices on foreign magazines I was wondering if I would have the chance to own one.
2-3 years later I bought one.

Then we heard that 4G LTE is coming, its been launch in South Korea, I was wondering if I could afford to experience it, 2-3 years later people in my village are connected to the 4G LTE network.

Now we are hearing that 5G is coming hopefully in 2-3 years I will experience it.

Now why I said Nigeria might soon be in trouble, anything that has to do with technology comes so fast that Electric cars will soon replace fuel vehicles.

Just like a joke, Nigeria is not taking into consideration that European countries are switching from fuel cars to Electric cars by 2025 that's like 5-6 years from now.

We are not the owners of Hyundai, Toyota, Honda, Nissan, and other car brands to say we can stop the manufacturing of electric cars.

By then the demand for crude oil will decline and that means oil might fall to $10-15 per barrel. That means we are falling into a recession for life just like Venezuela.

Don't get me wrong, crude oil will still be sold but don't forget car engines worldwide consumes 85% of the product.. Now what will happen is that there will be too much oil in the international market and for that reason, oil usually drops drastically to below $20 - $25.

Nigeria must act fast and stop all these unnecessary politics cos if Honda, Toyota, and Nissan starts mass production of Electric cars Nigeria will be in trouble.

The gas that hasn't gone up to $3 before in the market. By then with Nigerian population growing by 250m $3 gas can't sustain us.

Even Nigerian government is not too interested in gas cos the price is too small $2.50. Had it been that Gas prices can go up to at least $20 we will manage but that's not going to happen. It's been for $1 - $2.50 for centuries

Someone mentioned that Nigeria will switch to Gas.

Well, The gas that hasn't gone up to $3 before in the market. By then with Nigerian population growing by 250m $3 gas can't sustain us.

Even the Nigerian government is not too interested in gas cos the price is too small at $2.50. Had it been that Gas prices can go up to at least $20 we will manage but that's not going to happen. It's been for $1 - $2.50cent for centuries


Oil will become GBANJO. A commodity that is less attractive

We are currently on a high pressure well right now, Gas is the future and the government knows it.

Who told you slot don't sell used phones? They refurbish phones and sell as new. I was once a victim. Whenever I am in any of their shops now, I tell whoever is attending to me to please not give me a refurbished phone. That way, they will know I am aware of that.

It doesn't have to be goodbye. Say hello to BBMe, an end-to-end encrypted messaging platform that you can trust to keep your personal information and conversations private.

https://www.blackberry.com/us/en/products/messaging/bbm-enterprise/bbme
But you will be charged a monthly fee

Nothing lasts forever. BBM is a highly imitable product btw, unless you're buying off competitors like big conglomerates do (Facebook/WhatsApp, Nestle, General Electric, PZ, LG, etc.) no imitable product can survive the market.

We are in a knowledge economy, where knowledge and information are out there for all at no cost.

Ordinary Bigi is about to displace Coca-Cola and La casera in Nigeria by simply offering extra centilitres of their so called secret flagship recipe. Innovate or die.

Tecno should also prepare for its eventual death come 2020/2021.
How?

Learn how to make your points intelligently rather than insults.

Do you think everyone carry two phones or use two mobile phones like Nigerians in developed climes.

You think you are intelligent but you are not.

If the other line is in a smart phone with WhatsApp installed in it, will the people you gave it to still not chat with you?

Olodo that is a retard referring to others as not intelligent.

So you solution is to have two lines so that people won’t chat with u? Mumu .


Ode It's not necassary u have two phones, That's shows how foolish and dumb u are Sugonmu. And who told u when u Insert a line on a whatsApp Installed phone, It will Automatically register u on WhatsApp? You are too stupid and Ignoramus for my liking lol....Black man will never learn. Na to dey marry up and down Bleep they know. Bunch of retard things. Spits.
