Stop shouting that it is the "bad economy that makes ShopRite empty".

It is change and development that affect ShopRite in Nigeria

Take Ibadan for example,it is hardly you drive three kilometers that you will not see a Mall, either big or mini Mall that are being owned by individuals

For example, from the University of Ibadan main Gate to Ojoo,there are three different Malls.

So, automatically, those that reside both Ojoo and University of Ibadan may not have any reason to go to ShopRite again.

You as a person, when did you go to ShopRite last?

If you Reside in Dugbe axis, Pinnacle Mall is already satisfying people around that area,and which may reduce the number of people that would be patronizing ShopRite at Dugbe

ShopRite is empty doesn't mean economy is bad generally, but individuals are already venturing into Mall businesses, which is reducing the number of customers that would be patronizing ShopRite.

"My darling husband gives me $100k for myself, and $50k to send to my mum every month." Regina Daniels

"My husband is very rich and he gives me so much money that even when the economy is hard, I barely notice. Even after he gives me money, he still buys me everything I need. Personally, I've not bought anything since I got married. So like during the Cashless Policy in Nigeria, I didn't even know because my bank account was still stacked with dollars. I just went to the market to buy some foodstuffs and remembered that I didn't take enough money and called my husband to send me more cash. So when he sent me the cash, I just snapped and posted it and people got angry at me and I didn't know why until my mother told me that it's because of cashless policy. And then she said: 'Regina, you're rich ooh, please send me some of the money.' And when I went home, I told my husband what my mother had said jokingly and he started sending her $50k every month. My husband is an Odogwu and our love is strong and unbreakable." ~ Regina Daniels

Love is sweet ooh, but when money enter love is sweeter.
Just look at the way Regina loves Ned and you'll understand

Social media platforms keep moving the goalposts, demanding millions of followers before they acknowledge you exist. But here’s the truth: everyone is a content creator.

Think about it. The guy who tweets about fuel scarcity? A content creator. The lady who posts WhatsApp status updates about the best akara spot? A content creator. The student documenting his campus experience on Instagram? A content creator. But the problem is, unless you have an army of followers, the system tells you, “Sorry, you don’t matter.”

On most social platforms, your worth is tied to your follower count, and until you hit some ridiculous number, you don’t get paid. It’s unfair. The system is designed to make you work for free while they rake in billions. But Phisk is here to change that.

We’re doing what no other platform dares to do—paying creators from the moment they sign up. No waiting. No follower count requirements. No “prove your worth” nonsense. Whether you have 10 followers or 10 million, your content matters, and you deserve to be rewarded for it.

At Phisk, every post earns you points, every view adds up, and once you hit the cash-out threshold, you get paid. No gimmicks. No tricks. Just a system that values creators for what they bring to the table, not for how many people are at the table.

African content creators have been overlooked for too long, but the revolution has started. It’s time to stop waiting for validation from platforms that don’t care about us. It’s time to build our own economy—an economy where every creator counts.

Join Phisk. Get paid. Because every post matters.

In the past few weeks, Nigerians have been ranting about the sudden and massive data price increases by major telecom companies which includes Airtel and MTN. The sudden rise in prices has fuelled debate about the affordability and fairness of mobile data in the country. Many customers have taken to social media, forums and consumer complaint channels to express their anger, citing the cost of internet as a major burden in an already tough economy.

Minister for Blue Economy and the former Governor of Osun State, Alh. Gboyega Oyetola, assuring sacked APC council Chairmen and Councillors of police protection as they prepare to illegally occupy local governments across Osun State against the order of the court nullifying the election as challenged by the Osun APP.

There is the local & international dimension to the Boko Haram & the terrorism ravaging the continent of Africa (especially Nigeria).

The funding, the training & the logistics are coming mostly from the West & the Middle East; the foot soldiers are supplied from right there in my native Nigeria, & the wider Sahel.

It’s a foreign mission with local headquarters.

No Terrorism can carryon for almost two decades without a type of sophistication (a network of endless supply of weapons & funding). Someone must have routes to market to succeed with onboarding such a massive program on such a massive scale. Abacha understood some of these complexities.

The terrorism in Nigeria is nuclear, with many branches. Local champions in Nigeria are not that sophisticated to coordinate & sustain such transnational sabotage on that grand scale (without motivation from external sources).

Wars are expensive, & someone must fund it with hard currency. Foot soldiers must be fed, the war propaganda must be oiled as well.

Religious fanaticism & radicalization are the oxygen, poverty is the cannon fodder. Two peas in a pod; both married each other perfectly. Sabotage added salt to injury.

The multidimensional poverty ravaging Nigeria, alongside the ungoverned spaces up north, are enough motivation for anyone to want to join a group of ragtags. Downplaying the international dimension to an almost 2 decades of nonstop insurgency, is something that I will never do.

Simon Ekpa’s IPOB are not isolated either. The riff raff cannot possibly be the one funding the endless resources he had at his disposable.

A sovereign or conglomerate must have been the muscle directing the orchestra, & arranging the motifs. Simon is not that sophisticated.

Wars are expensive, & someone must fund it.

I have seen enough to know that wherever there is conflict, a whale is paying for it. There is whole economy built around wars & conflict.

Someone somewhere is the beneficiary (pushing their own agenda from behind the scene). It's a perfect collaboration. Nigeria supplies the foot soldiers, the West & the Arabs the funding. In simple language; the Boko Haram is local, the funding is international.
