Dealfish thought a business model that worked abroad will work in Nigeria.
I see iRocktv on the same path too.
There are many of such e-commerce sites that will go down real soon.

Nairaland / General / An Idea To Provide Financial Solution To Rural Communities In Nigeria by Xperience12: 9:56am On Aug 10, 2017
Banking apps and internet banking services are a lifesaver; imagine having to head to a bank for every little transaction. It can get pretty frustrating right? And the bad thing is that it's not everywhere there is an atm or a bank. Most rural areas don't have banks or atm and have to journey to towns to withdraw as little as N2000-N10,000, spending N200 upwards in the process. What if there was a way to get little cash withdrawals without having to spend much to get to an atm. Now imagine never having to go your bank and spend this excesses; this is exactly what KREDIT is offering.

KREDIT (proposed solution), offers customers a fully digital financial and banking experience. So, all that is required to open and run and withdraw money from your bank account is an internet connected device.

Our mission is to allow you withdraw money (cash) anywhere without having to visit a bank. All you have to do is request for an amount and pick up from a cash point (which could be any supermarket, kiosk, restaurant, etc). With Kredit people in rural communities don't need to bother themselves about transporting themselves to the nearest atm, or worry about the queues in the atm. Kredit improves cash distribution and liquidity management by creating the largest cash network in the world powered by mobile devices. The goal is to convert every shop and customer into a virtual cash distribution network and is starting in Nigeria. We want to make cash circulation more efficient by deconstructing the expensive cash logistics supply and ATM networks globally.

To withdraw cash, users simply need to place an order on the Kredit's app, select a cashpoint nearby and pick up the cash at the outlet. For each transaction, Kredit takes N50 (15 Naira less from what the atm charges).

We're still working on the whole idea but we would really love to get your honest opinion. What do you think about the idea? Can this help solve the problem of access to financial service and cash withdrawal in rural communities in Nigeria. Ideas needed. Send feedback

Travel / What Do You Guys Think Of A Vacation Home Rental Website by Xperience12: 10:31am On Jun 13, 2017
Hello Nairalanders, I and my team are considering working and developing an online portal where people could lodge into people's house for vacation.
AwayandHome is an online marketplace that connects people looking to rent their homes with people who are looking for accommodations. AwayandHome allow people to list, discover, and book unique accommodations around the world.

Our intended users include hosts and travelers: hosts list and rent out their unused spaces (such as Boys Quarter, Extra rooms, Garage, etc), and travelers search for and book these accommodations for holidays and vacations.

Our hosts list their properties - which can be single rooms, a suite of rooms, apartments, moored yachts, houseboats, entire houses or even a castle - on the website. It's free to create a listing, and hosts decide how much to charge per night, per week or per month. Each listing allows hosts to promote properties through titles, descriptions, photographs with captions and a user profile where potential guests can get to know a bit about the hosts.

Travelers (or "guests"wink search the available database of properties by entering details about when and where they'd like to travel. Travelers can further refine searches by making selections for:

Room type - entire place, private room or shared room
Price - range from minimum to maximum
Size - number of bedrooms, bathrooms and/or beds
Amenities - wireless Internet, TV, kitchen, pool, pets, etc.


How it Works


Travelers can search the database of properties at any time, but need to create a profile to book any reservations. Travelers can contact hosts using an online form that appears on each listing page, and can submit a reservation request by clicking the "Book It" button and entering payment details via a secure payment system. Travelers pay a guest service fee of 10-15% on top of the reservation to cover services such as customer support and the Host Guarantee. Our intended system supports several payment methods, including major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, Verve) through third-party payment systems like PayStack and Interswitch. Travelers are not charged until the host confirms the reservation.

Once a traveler pays and the host confirms the reservation, We hold the payment for 24 hours after check-in before releasing the funds to the host. Available payout methods and currencies differ by country, but hosts are paid via Direct Deposit, bank transfer/international wire, PayPal, Western Union etc. Airbnb takes a 3% service fee from the host for each reservation to cover the cost of processing the transaction. This fee is in addition to the 10-15% paid for guest service fees.


Advantages


Our proposed website can benefit both hosts and travelers. Hosts get to meet people from around the world while making a little extra money, and travelers can often stay for less than the cost of a hotel room. In addition, many travelers enjoy accommodations that offer a different experience from standard hotels.



Conclusion

Do you guys think it's a project worth embarking on? What problems do you see with this. Kindly expecting reply


CC Lalasticlala please put on front page. I really need advice cause I'm so so confused and would love Nairalanders to assist me in thinking
Nairaland / General / What Do You Guys Think Of This Idea? by Xperience12: 12:14pm On Jun 11, 2017
Hello Nairalanders imagine there was a campus networking site that allows its members to create students connections, search for scholarships and Internships, and connect with potential students in their school and outside their school of related courses.

The site also enables its users to build and engage with their students networks; access shared knowledge and information, discover latest events within schools; and find opportunities.

Imagine there was a LinkedIn for students and campuses, to connect them together.

Crime / High Profile Kidnapping Kingpin Evans Evans Caught by Xperience12: 7:40am On Jun 11, 2017
There was tumultuous ovation and excitement, yesterday, at the Force Headquarters, Kam Salem House, Abuja, and the Police Command, Ikeja, Lagos, after news filtered that the notorious and most dreaded kidnap kingpin in the country, Evans, has been arrested by the Inspector-General of Police Intelligence Response Team, IRT, inside his bedroom, in the Magodo area of Lagos. Evans Evans, described as the most notorious, high profile kidnapper – and the richest in Nigeria – was, at last, unmasked. Before yesterday’s arrest, the Police had placed a N30million bounty on his head. When Policemen broke into his room to arrest him, he was said to have sheepishly said, “I know this is the end,m I am finished”. His real name is Chukwudidumeme Onuamadike, aged 36, and hails from Umudim Village, Nnewi North Local Government Area of Anambra State. Sunday Vanguard has been made to understand that during preliminary questioning, Evans confessed to having been behind virtually all the high profile kidnap incidents in places including but not limited to Lagos, Port Harcourt, Onitsha, Aba. His exploits also included the 2013 attempted kidnapping of the owner of The Young Shall Grow Motors. He was said to have confessed that the kidnap job was brought to him by one Emeka. He also confessed that he has two properties in Ghana, one of which is where his wife and five children have reportedly moved into. Among many items recovered from him yesterday during his arrest were expensive phones, one of which is put at a cost of $6,000. His arrest yesterday, came just few weeks after many members of his gang, including his second and third in command, were rounded up at different locations in the country. Their arrest came few days after one of their victims, Donatus Dunu, a wealthy owner of a pharmaceutical company at Ilupeju, Lagos, escaped miraculously from the hideout where they kept him for months. He was abducted in front of his office in Ilupeju, on February 14, 2017, after he closed for the day, by gun-totting young men who blocked his car with their SUV and threw him into the booth of the car. Members of his family later paid about N150m to effect his release. But the kidnappers insisted on getting N500m. They threatened to kill their victim if the full ransom was not paid. Luckily, few weeks after the payment of the ransom and their consistent threat to kill their victim, Dunu miraculously escaped from their hideout at Igando, a suburb of Lagos. He, thereafter, alerted security agents who swung into action and started rounding up members of the gang. information made available to Sunday Vanguard by very dependable sources suggested that efforts of the police paid off on Friday night, after they were able to locate Evans’ where about, using sophisticated communication gadgets provided by the Inspector-General of Police. Police sources hinted that while almost all police formations in the country were on red alert trying to locate the notorious kidnap kingpin, the Inspector-General of Police, who was visibly angry with the delay, sent three special teams attached to his office down to Lagos to complement the efforts of those on ground. It was further gathered that the teams came with new sophisticated communication gadgets for the operation. Intelligence reports had indicated that failure to arrest the Evans was not unconnected with his possession of some state of the art jamming device, which made it easy for him to serially knock off signals that would have enabled men of the force pin him down. The change in equipment, according to sources, paid off at last, after detectives were able to locate his where about late Friday night – even though his telephone sets were already switched off to avoid detection. He was reportedly traced to his palatial home in Magodo, Lagos, while he had already packed his bags and baggages, ready to fly to South Africa, the next day. It was gathered that after his arrest, the elated members of the IGP’s team, led by Deputy Superintendent of Police, Philip, immediately alerted their leader, ACP Aba Kyari, who gave the Inspector-General the cheering news. In Lagos, officers and men of other formations, including civilians, rushed to catch a glimpse of the dare-devil kidnapper that gave them sleepless nights. It was learned that people even came from far-away Festac and Amuwo-Odofin/Ojo axis where he held sway during his inglorious reign by abducting wealthy men and forcing them to pay not less than N500m before they were set free. As at the time of going to press, detectives were yet to give access to the suspect but a police source said he may be paraded by the state Commissioner of Police, Fatai Owoseni, today.

His Exploits

1 Mbarikatta William Uboma, 35, kidnapped June 16th, 2012, at about 11am, on his arrival from Hungary, while he was close to his house. He was in the company of his brother, on their way from the airport, when another car emerged and blocked theirs. They grabbed Uboma, blindfolded him and forcefully abducted him – he was taken to an unknown destination. They later demanded a ransom of N10M. However, N2M was later paid while they collected other personal accessories. He was finally dropped at Okota on the third day.

2. Paul Cole, 34, from Ohafia in Abia State. A Director with Ocean Glory Commodities, Apapa, he was kidnapped on August 3rd, 2012, at Festac Town, together with his General Manager, Jude Ugoje, and another staff, Piriye Gogo, and taken to an unknown destination. They demanded for N10M. On August 6th, 2012, they collected N5M ransom at Maza-maza, before letting their victim off the hook.

3. Mohammed Jamal, 22, a Lebanese, was kidnapped on August 19, 2012, at Ajah by three armed men, taken away and blindfolded. N7M ransom was later paid at Ojo Barracks.

Education / What Do You Guys Think Of This Idea? by Xperience12: 9:04pm On Jun 10, 2017
Hello Nairalanders imagine there was a campus networking site that allows its members to create students connections, search for scholarships and Internships, and connect with potential students in their school and outside their school of related courses.

The site also enables its users to build and engage with their students networks; access shared knowledge and information, discover latest events within schools; and find opportunities.

Imagine there was a LinkedIn for students and campuses, to connect them together.
QUESTION- WHATS YOUR TAKE ON THIS.

Kindly comment

Thank God for you.. Many didn't survive same incidence..

As for your pictures and contacts, you can always get them back using Google Drive (that's if your Ipad has been automatically making use of that feature/app). My phone was recently stolen in Computer Village,
I thought all was lost but then I remembered my phone always backs up automatically each time I took a mi picture. I went to google drive using the email I used for the phone and to my surprise, I saw all my pictures and contacts right in front of me..

All the best to you bro...

Seriously does IPad use Google drive. How can I check please

God is good. I was kidnapped today but free.

I missed my staffbus to the Island Lagos so decided to use a Danfo bus as early as 6:30. I entered one going to the Island not knowing they're kidnappers/thieves inside. On getting to Gbagada they pounced on me in the bus and attacked me, beating me. I thought they wanted to kidnap me and I kept shouting Jesus! JESUS! One held my neck and kept choking me. Another held my legs and they laid me flat. They took my phone and told me to unlock it. They took my wallet and asked if it was the only money I had. They took the 4000 inside and left N400 for me. They also took my iPad and return my phones. Then they told me to get up and silently they'd drop me. When we reached Forte oil Gbagada they told me to come out and they drove off........

I'm happy I'm alive and it wasn't a different story. I feel bad for my iPad because it has all the pictures I've been taking since 2 years including my Defense pictures, Convocation pictures, my pictures in Nysc camp, my pictures at the office and lots other but what can I Say. It's a small sacrifice. Once there is life and you have God, you have everything

Please everyone be careful when you enter buses. Always observe before entering anyone at all
