All I will say is a crate of egg is about 6k naira, it’s not normal.
I've never been a fan of building in public 😂😂 😂 Someone has been building something for months and launched like some couple months ago. One random guy just replicates your work with Rust programming language, makes it more efficient and lightweight than yours and even better in terms of design in just one week and make it free and open source to the world 🙏😂
It's been raining Raenest merch boxes. Have you gotten yours? 👀
In August 2013, I emailed the @PayPal team. Nigeria’s fintech ecosystem was still young. @Paga was just a few years old. And the “Africa opportunity” wasn’t yet part of most global boardroom conversations. But even then, the opportunity was clear to us. In that email, I shared a simple belief: that Nigeria would become one of the most important economies in the world, and that there was strong alignment between PayPal and Paga to make payments, financial services, and global commerce work for Nigerians. I attached a presentation outlining how our two companies might collaborate: Paga could power on-ramps and off-ramps to and from PayPal in Nigeria. The partnership would enable Nigerians to use PayPal anywhere PayPal is accepted globally. It would also enable Nigerian merchants to accept PayPal for payments. It would take more than a decade for that belief to fully materialize. Today, I’m proud to share that PayPal is now live in Nigeria through Paga. Until now, Nigerians could not receive money via PayPal. Our partnership unlocks that. Nigerian PayPal users who link their PayPal accounts to Paga can now receive money via PayPal. Only PayPal Nigeria accounts linked to Paga are enabled for receiving money. Gig workers can now get paid through PayPal, and family members can now send you money on PayPal. Nigerian merchants can now receive payments on PayPal. The linkage is done within the Paga app, and users can view their PayPal balance and withdraw to Naira when they want. Nigerians can now use PayPal at over 30 million merchants worldwide! This moment isn’t about a single announcement. It’s about patience. It’s about building robust, trusted local infrastructure. It’s about believing that global platforms scale better when they work with local systems, not around them. Partnerships like this don’t happen overnight. They are the result of years of conversations, trust-building, regulatory work, and showing up consistently. I’m proud of the Paga team for staying the course. I’m grateful to the PayPal team for believing in the long-term vision. And I’m excited about what this unlocks for Nigerians participating in the global digital economy.

It’s okay if you want to boycott PayPal and Paga. But trying to recruit other people, that’s absolute witchcraft. Some of us need this partnership for many reasons.
.@PayPal , the global payments platform, is partnering with Nigerian fintech @paga to finally let Nigerians receive international payments, settle them in Naira, and fully access its global payments network after two decades of limited service.
