Classifieds Shopping - Jiji.NG


Shopping at classifieds still remains a complicated process for some people, but it is only because sometimes they don’t understand completely what classifieds is and what it is used for. It is a universal shopping spot in the first place, which consists of numerous adverts and functions all over the country. It is a unique service that has gathered hundreds of thousands of offers from all over the country and is ready to share its information with others.


Classifieds occupy a place somewhere in the middle between simple advertisements and online stores. It a collection of various offers gathered in one place specially for your convenience, which has grown into a real service where you can buy and sell various things. Actually, classifieds websites like Jiji.ng site remind a market, and their work is based on familiar principles. Sellers promote their goods in order to make someone buy them, and people wandering around web pages can find what they need and make a purchase.


Another feature that makes Jiji similar to a market is that buyers and sellers deal directly with each other. It means there are no annoying shopping assistants with their unnecessary and useless help. As a result, this helps to avoid extra charges and overpricing. Speaking about differences, on Jiji you can always post your adverts for free. It is a significant improvement, as it is required to pay for placing an advert in a newspaper and paying for a market stall. Thus, you get the lowest prices possible to find.


Such opportunity ensures an amazing selection of things available on the website, which together with a convenient searching system and low prices create a perfect combination. This is exactly what makes Jiji classifieds No.1 in Nigeria. It is a place with over 520,000 active ads visited by more than 10 million users per month. You can become one of them and learn what classifieds shopping is on your own.

Join Linda Ikeji 'I Would Rather Be Self Made' Event, Don't Miss This


Message from Linda Ikeji ::: Hello ladies and ladies...hehe...we are finally ready to commence the second phase of my pet project, 'I'd Rather Be Self Made'. Venue for the gathering was what was delaying it but we finally found a place. So we are meeting on Saturday March 12th 2016 somewhere in Surulere... I wanted to give one week notice so that the ladies who are interested will prepare, especially those who live outside of Lagos. Someone told me and I'm hoping that the statistics are wrong, that 50% of ladies between 18 and 28 in Nigeria sleep with men for money.

The purpose of Self-Made in 2016 is to reduce that number to about 49.8%. :-). But more than anything else, encourage young ladies not to go down that path. So, we are not only going to help with financing small scale businesses, we will also mentor young girls. Apart from meeting this Saturday, I'm also planning a monthly Self Made mentorship programme where aspiring female entrepreneurs can meet established ones and rob minds and help each other. We need more women to inspire the next generation. For this one on Saturday...

Bring your proposals with you on Saturday. These are the guidelines for your proposal...
I. Only three pages of the proposal/business plan.
II. Give biodata, provide phone contact, email and state of residence
III. State business idea, explain how it works and list what is needed to start up the business
IV. The money you need shouldn't be more than one million. (We are giving between 100k to N1m max)
V. Be aware that you are going to defend your proposal if you're picked.

I promise ladies, I will do everything I can to establish businesses for as many young ladies as I can...I will not only use my money...I plan to eventually disturb some rich people and get them to buy into this dream and invest in our women. For venue for Saturday's meeting, call these numbers - 07051229040 - 08091844327 for address and further inquiries.

Gidi Culture Festival! Where The Young Entrepreneur And The Economy Meet, Don't Miss This


Gidi Fest 16 ::: Gidi Culture Festival is coming up on March 26th! The festival will have music from Davido, Tiwa Savage, Yemi Alade, Phyno, Timaya, K.O., and Riky Rick, with opening acts Adekunle Gold and Small Doctor. Gidi Fest also features food and art from across Nigeria and beach football and volleyball headed by celebrity team captains. Ticket prices are slashed to N2,000 and are available at www.gidifest.com.

Why the cut in pricing? Let’s get real about the economy. We’ve all felt the effects of the drop in oil prices and thereby the drop in our economy. This, in combination with foreign exchange rates makes for tough times in Nigeria. We’ve carried on in the traditional Nigerian way of ‘suffering and smiling’, but let’s be honest; it’s a tough time in our country!. Will oil prices go back up anytime soon? Your guess is as good as ours, but in the meantime, what’s clear is that there is no stopping the Nigerian youth. As the economy slows, we’ve all picked up the pace. We’re long past the days of being limited to ‘traditional’ careers. In the pages of newspapers, or even amongst your friends you can find people making careers (and money!) as stylists, creative directors, graphic artists, musicians, actors, producers - the list is endless. With 105million people under 30, Nigeria’s young people are a force to be reckoned with.

Who needs oil? Ok, we still need oil, but you get the point. There’s no excuse to not follow your dreams. The time is now! We’ve seen what many youths are doing and we are inspired. We’re building the country together. Just like year’s past, we’re opening Gidi Fest’s gates to all communities, providing a day where everyone can come out, enjoy great music, great food, good times and even better people. This year, with the economy slowing some people down, we deserve a great day more than ever.Gidi Fest is creating a tradition of youth empowerment and celebrating African music, culture and people in every form.

This is our vision. What’s yours? Show us solo or even gather your #GidiSquad. We’re taking submissions via Instagram and Twitter, make sure you tag #GidiFest16 and follow us @GidiCultureFest on either network. The story we love the most gets 2 VIP tickets to Gidi Fest 2016 on March 26th. For the up and coming musicians out there check out the Flow with the Beat competition.

Nigeria’s Economic Crisis Is Being Exaggerated, Says Billionaire Aliko Dangote


May God help Nigeria ::: Africa's richest man, Aliko Dangote, says Nigeria's economic reality is being exaggerated and is not as bad as it is being portrayed. Dangote said this while speaking at the Economist Forum in Lagos, March 7th 2016. Dangote said while some businesses faced serious challenges, others did not.

“It all depends on the business. I think people are underrating the economy of Nigeria. They just go and look at foreign exchange because oil has gone down and believe that everything has gone out of the window. That is not correct”. He said despite what is being described as an economic crisis in Nigeria, his company, Dangote Cement, recorded 47 per cent growth in January and February.

"We have seen growth in our sugar business of about 20 per cent. If your business model is to import 100 per cent of your component and just be an assembly plant, then definitely you will face challenges because the influx of foreign exchange is not like what it used to be a year and half ago when we used to receive about 3.2 billion dollars on monthly basis and our outflow was around two billion dollars. Today, we are receiving just about a billion dollars. In our cement sector, we had that vision and we said let us properly industrialise. By this, we mean that our raw materials are almost 90 percent locally sourced. So we only need foreign exchange to buy spare parts, pay some of our expatriate staff salaries in dollars and a get a little bit of gipson which is not readily available here.” he said.

Dangote added that the only option left for businesses in Nigeria was to export. “We now have capacity to export cement worth about 500 million dollars on an annual basis. With that, it means that we are self-sufficient. If you look at most of our projects, they are all very transformational projects because we saw this coming. In the last ten years, we said we want to do things in a manner that by 2018, we don’t have to go to the Central Bank of Nigeria to ask for foreign exchange. We want to be people who will sale forex to the market.” he said.
