Chai!! All powerful Konga.
Lets see how it goes. Something good must come out of it
Does this mean that yudala and konga will merge.
Hmmm hope something good will come up. My own problem is that I ordered for an android Tv box on jumia for almost a week and they has not delivered it.
It might be a global order and such orders take up to a month to get delivered
Ok. Thank you
I wonder what could have led to the acquisition.
Konga has been struggling since. U can hardly see item tagged 'sold by Konga' on the platform. Hopefully this acquisition will bring life to online business in Nigeria
I saw this news somewhere and I thought it was fake.
Yudala + Konga = Yudonga!
Potential here, somebody? Lmao
Lolz for your mind na
Konga has always been living under the shadow of jumia..gud buy for zonix
Good one for them..
I never knew zinox was still in existence, because for a long time I haven't seen any product from them. I'll visit their site to see if they have something new.
I have heard of Zinox before
But I just can't remember where
They make laptops
As long as jumia exists, Konga will always be a second fiddle
They can now compete with jumia
Never liked their Site layout. prefer jumia.com every day.
Let's see if they gonna improve somehow
