Konga and Jumia are by far the greatest online shopping mall in Nigeria, with great number of people patronizing them daily.
You hardly regret ever shopping with them with as they are a very reliable and trustworthy, and deliver the goods wherever you want it delivered!
Nothing great comes without its disadvantage! People are now falling victim of being duped online, ordering for goods and paying with the goods not being delivered! My sister actually happens to fall victim.
Initially, we thought it was a mix up and perhaps the phone ordered was delivered to the wrong person! But after heading to Jumia's nearest office, then we found out it was never a Jumia Official but a man that's currently working on bringing down the two great shopping mall.
It was her first time shopping online, and she never thought of what the outcome happened to be.
HOW IT HAPPENED!
She went online and saw the phone of her choice, not more than #20,000, then she saw a phone number she was to contact, of which she did, according to the man, named Mr. Mike, she's to pay before she get the phone, he forwarded the bank details and she paid into it, and she's yet to receive the phone as of today!
I haven't really bought anything from the two shopping mall, but I don't think they would have been operating with a bank account which display a man's name and not that of their Name!
Due to the location she was ordering from, he (Mr. Mike) informed here it would be delivered to her the third day and they ended the conversation, She's still expecting the phone today!
The problem now is, getting to the nearest Jumia office, they claimed the man was never their staff nor marketing manager as he keeps describing himself to people, and as of the time we went to report, we were told a case similar to ours was also tabled before them 3 days earlier.
Your sister made a big mistake, I still don't know how she saw the sellers contact on Jumia. Jumia acts like an escrow between the buyer and seller and assuming she paid through Jumia and she didn't receive the phone, Jumia automatically refunds her money and she can also do same if she did not receive the product advertised.
Daviestunech: I'm planning to get that phone...yet some pple dey discourage me say the phone no dey strong or durable... just confused
Been using redmi 7a for 2 years before I passed it on to my younger cousin to use and I upgraded to the note 9 pro, According to my own view Xiaomi products are good.
Video circulating on social media shows a massive explosion rocking central Beirut - shattering windows, knocking down doors and shaking buildings several hundred feet away. Lebanon’s health minister told journalists a ship carrying fireworks had blown up in the port, though the size of the blast heard across the country raised suspicions it might have resulted from a rocket strike or detonation of explosives - deliberate or otherwise. The source of the blast has not been confirmed
moatacad: Below is another interview with one of our alumni, Sunkanmi (mentioned above) sharing his experience at the boot camp :
“I was able to develop a professional networking site and I now have a job as a Software Developer” – Sunkanmi
Can we meet you?
My Name is Sunkanmi Daniel Olawuwo. I studied Electrical and Electronics Engineering with no prior knowledge of programming before coming to Moat Academy.
What were you doing before joining Moat Academy?
I was a Field Engineer with a Remote Monitoring Solutions Company; I resigned because i wanted to change my career path.
What exactly do you want to achieve with the software development skills?
I am looking to pursue a successful career in software development; then establish tech startups that will proffer solutions to some of the challenges being faced in the world.
How has things Changed For you since gaining Software Development Skills?
It has helped me to understand and be able to work with the technology around me. In a way it has improved my communication, creative thinking, and self-confidence. It gives me a newfound sense of energy to really pursue the goals i want in life.
What was your biggest fear before coming to Moat Academy...?
My biggest fear was the complexity and difficulty attached to learning programming languages. I did not believe I would be able to understand programming and web development in that short space of time.
How I feel now?
I feel empowered because i have one of the most in-demand skills in the world. With God, hard work and consistency I am on course for a successful career in software development.
How will you describe your experience at Moat Academy?
The boot camp is a mirror image of what to expect out there as a software developer with daily assignments and mini-projects every week.
The approach to teaching is world class; the facilitators are patient and always ready to help.
What have you been able to achieve with the training?
Towards the end of the boot camp, we worked on our final projects. I was able to develop a web application (Professional Networking Site: which allows members to share posts, comment on posts, follow and unfollow one another) from scratch to completion and I now have a job as a Software Developer.
What advice do you have for those coming into Moat Academy?
My advice for them is that they should be devoted and dedicated to the training. Moat Academy has its own standards; students need to work hard in other to achieve the expected outcome after 11 weeks.
What is your future Outlook in Software Development?
I have a solid foundation thanks to Moat Academy, I am looking to learn more and grow through the ranks as quick as possible.
Kylekent59: You are trying to sound intelligent, but opposite is the case. People advised him not to. For people to advise him, it means he already had his choice : Tecno or Infinix
Try to reason accurately before quoting someone. Don't be in a haste.
So he should neglect user experience of customers concerning the phone just because of his 'choice' so he will later come here complaining on the same issues other users complain of.
I guess I will settle rigorous online tutorials after finding some sort of answers online instead of wasting 200k. Had to read long list of Reddit threads concerning since no one decided to reply, but will still very much appreciate if someone give me a structure on how to start learning bit by bit.
Please anyone opinion will be appreciated, I'm planning on going for programming lessons because I really can't do nothing much I'm the house because of distractions. But I came across this MoatAcademy and they're offering what I'm looking, I need an expert advise if it's this bootcamp is worth attending or any alternatives will be appreciated.
jurrsh: I want to go to the market to get a new phone today. Redmis note 8 or note8 pro or redmi note 9 on my mind. Are there any problems with the brand?
I think you should thoroughly look from authentic reviews from users using the phone and not some low rift raft taking random comments of internet users online concerning the phone. I'm using the redmi note 9 pro and the phone is pretty much good since I bought it.
Based in Lagos but I'm looking for a very good programming tutorial center were I get to interact with other people also while learning. Please any advise will be appreciated. Thank you.
NB: I've also tried self study but really don't get to do much at home due to distractions.
