The app also has a complete design refresh and user experience flow that results in far shorter times for initial onboarding and quicker day-to-day navigation through the app.

10x better Caller ID, 10x better protection against spam and scam   Smoother and faster onboarding for new users

Chinese Dominance Worries Nigeria’s Textile Traders

Nafiu Badaru, a junior civil servant in northern Nigeria's biggest city Kano, doesn't make much money and it takes some cash to look good so he tends to buy Made-in-China fabric."A piece of high-quality brocade (cloth) costs around 10,000 naira ($50, 47 euros), which is way too expensive for me," he told AFP. "With the same amount of money, I can buy six pieces of cheap Chinese brocade which cost only 1,500 Naira a piece and still keep some change."The proliferation of Chinese-made textiles is a boon for consumers like Nafiu, with Kano and the wider North struggling with unemployment and economic constraints.
