You guys are always trying to paint the UK bad. Robberies don't happen in London or anywhere in the UK.
You say? This is a big lie. It may not be commonplace but it is certainly not nonexistent.

Nigerian army always claiming to have killed scores of terrorists without photos yet each time ISWAP and bokoharam kill them they show photos

Useless liars
The military changed policies about sharing graphic pictures on social media. It's only here we believe the military should be a keeping up with the Kardashians institution
Phones › Re: Tecno Is Launching Two Flagship Devices On 7th December by samsard(m): 11:21am On Dec 21, 2022
OneGeek:
Are those your benchmarks for a pretty good flagship? Because a pretty good flagship can be a flagship without one or more those things. Chinese brands do that in general (until recently)
Android 13 has been out for like two months now. No serious manufacturer launches phones by this time with Android 12 if that's true. A $900 phone without an official IP rating is definitely a bad deal. A Google Pixel Pro is a much better deal at that price point.

A305:
This would only prevent people from saving huge sum of money in the bank when they know It will be a mountainous task to take out the money when needed urgently, (especially business men who need huge cash to run their business), in other words — the whole idea of cashless policy will be defeated if these set of huge spenders refuses to keep huge cash in the bank.
Any serious business will make transfers for high value transactions. Even mallams have accounts these days.

I also want a good phone too, and I'm stuck between Pixel 7 pro, Xiaomi 12s ultra, iphone 13 pro...

Pixel 7 pro - New
Xiaomi 12s ultra - New
Iphone 13 pro - UK used FU


I don't know what to do! embarassed embarassed
I think iphone has good resale value and the parts are cheap
The only reason people think iPhone parts are cheap is because they're not genuine OEM parts most times. iPhone 13 original screen should be about $200, which is roughly 150k. Samsung screens are difficult to make copies of because they're either curved or have in-display fingerprint scanners.

And he didn't ban fox news account, the most hateful media organisation on earth known for fanning the flames of violence and hatred, such fiddlesticks.

At least CNN, BBC, Washington post, NYT etc are very impartial in their reportage.

Some fools will start denigrating Yahaya for what the cousin did now as if they ain't separate adults.
Seems you didn't read the fact that the money is from Kogi treasury. Who can move that kind of money without the governor?

Go and sit down. Haven't you been celebrating people's death? Let's assume it was APC women leader's shop that was burnt to ashes in Enugu, you would commend the perpetrators. Hypocrite.!
So you assumed because he would have presumably celebrated APC women's death that this stupidity from you is justifiable? It's not like you have seen him celebrating APC women's death, which would still not justify your behaviour.
Anyway, those of you who act like grassroots politics hasn't always been bloody, especially for the established parties are funny.

I hear you. There are no perfect solutions but if you have the right people say like me and your business is legit,you will get your money lol. You just need more people like me. Seeing people commit suicide because of crypto around the world is enough warning ⚠️. Think wisely
People have also lost money in the banking system. Whatever works.

MasterTeeUSA:
I never told you to follow the suggestion, I just gave you one...but the most important point was that every problem has a solution. When you order food on the app in Nigeria, the service charge before delivery is 10% then you pay for delivery. You don't think of it as stupid because they are offering you a service. You can negotiate 5% with the person, but if you want someone to allow the use of his account at no cost, then that makes no sense.

If you see Crypto as a better alternative, go for it...but hey, FTX was a warning to you. Like a Yoruba adage always say...if you see a sign of bad thing, think of it as a warning. I am still amazed at how many people will pick Crypto with no backup over doing transactions with their own kinsmen. A word is enough for the wise. By the way, we do millions of dollars of transactions daily outside of the country ...you send dollars to people, and they send Naira to your account in Nigeria effortlessly. They will do it at a reduced rate, but it's faster and makes more sense than sending dollars and waiting for pickup and Sabo market. Every problem has a solution. A word again is enough for the wise.
grin I have heard from people who's money got to our "kinsmen" abroad for payments but they ate it and never remitted. Crypto exchanges don't crash every day.
I think most freelancers would prefer to receive USD and change by themselves because you get the best conversion that way.
Losing 3% to withdrawal fees is distressing enough to someone like me, I can imagine that guy or any freelancer for that matter would be sorely pissed to lose 10% of their income monthly to an intermediary.

Nigerians don't like it when you become better than them, they always want you to be below them scrounging and begging for scraps, I have been on this thread asking for guidance but everyone ignores me like I am invincible, just point me in the right direction, e dey hard them, one even asked me to send email only to ignore me.
TBH I doubt anyone here that's earning well is afraid of you getting ahead of them. Most people who start on Upwork and Fiverr give up with or without direction.
Try YouTube for guidance. Sometimes you'll make the most progress by helping yourself.

Let me chime in, simply avoid card funds as much as possible.

QuoteJustOnce:
lol which one is vasectomy again? huh huh why would someone do vasectomy and still use prophylactics? the vasectomy is to give you peace of mind knowing you're shooting blanks, in other words, a form of family planning for married persons or for those who like going in and don't want the responsibility that comes with it. Going in protected defeats the whole purpose as that could have been done instead of the surgical procedure. By the way undoing a vasectomy doesn't guarantee 100% success of conception and the longer you take to reverse it, the lower the chances of conception. All in all, he didn't do shit!
I just told him the bolded. We don't want to hear premium tears one day that he can't get a woman pregnant.

I practically did a vasectomy for this reason. The place I did the vasectomy was 80k the money has doubled now when I refered someone there. I will reverse it when I japa.
Hope they informed you that likelihood of reversal becomes lower after a few years?

Thanks for your contribution, I’m happy people are buying it now. It’s a lot of hard work getting it sold in last few years.

Yes , I’m not in Nigeria at the moment and most ATM here support only British pounds.
Oh, I get you now. I suppose banks can still convert & pay you in pounds with a conversion & withdrawal fee on supported machines.

I don’t mind loosing 3 percent . I can’t also find dollar ATM close by . So I’m ok trading it for something.
Thanks for your contribution
There are people buying here at good rates. Just use an escrow unless you feel the trader has enough history to risk a direct trade.
I also buy but I've paused for now as I have more funds than I can easily get rid with the current market rates.
There are no dollar ATMs in Nigeria. You'd have to travel abroad to withdraw USD from an ATM.

Does anyone knows how best to move UBA Africard dollar to another bank , please ?
No way. Unless you use it to fund an American fintech platform that accepts our cards, which you'd lose at least 3% before whatever other fees to send. Even if someone knew it here it'd be a trade secret and not something they'd share.
