Just like the way WeChat dominated China, SoftTalk messenger is about to be launched in Nigeria that will completely dust WhatsApp out of existence in the country.
The app, which is in the likes of WhatsApp, would help to solve local problems and create job opportunities in the country.
SoftTalk is an indigenous messaging application, which enables users to chat, make audio and video calls, unrestricted numbers of group chats as well shop for affordable and genuine products.
According to the Founder, and Chief Executive Officer, Prime Time Telecoms, a telecoms Service provider based in Japan, Simple Azenabor,
“We do so much than messaging, we want to empower and improve on the way messaging is done today, by giving access to users to shop, while Soft chatting and Soft talking at the same time.
“We are not in SoftTalk for revenue purposes, we are in it to solve a bigger problem and create employment in the country.”
As to whether the app will be able to withstand the strong competition posed by WhatsApp is another matter entirely.
The app is slated for a public launch in Lagos, Nigeria’s commercial capital in the next fortnight, and invites are already being sent out.
The question is will softTalk messenger give Nigerians something simpler and better to use than WhatsApp?
I Will like to see them try dust whatsApp out. Can’t wait to see it’s like
Good initiative but I wish to see it intends to create more jobs for Nigerians
Nigeria app to dust what’sapp, that will be a good try sha. Let’s see. I’ll will download and test.. Thumbs up to the Nigerian developers
I will be rooting for them.
honestly if dis soft messenger can do exactly or more dan whatsapp, this will be a good development and as much will make more nigerians embrace our own designed app.
They should talk about dusting WhatsApp when they have stayed for a while. Will and see though
They haven’t launched yet and already making noise about dusting whatsapp.. Let it not be another Tstv
Hmmm not so easy
Don’t really have much to say…hope it will pass the border
They will come with the idea of Nigerian owned. As patriotic citizens we will be clamoring for them only for them to come and fall our hand. What TSTV did is still burning me. I’m no longer putting too much mind in any Nigerian owned innovations. I’ll just be observing, if it comes good, fine. If it doesn’t, i won’t be surprised.
I’m with you on this ??
Unless it can do what it promised
Like creating job opportunities
Other than that I don’t think it can dust Whatsapp out
I hope the app will do exactly all what they said it will do and stand the test of time. Let’s just wait and see if it can really dust WhatsApp
Dust whatsapp, i laugh…. Maybe it’s 2go they are talking about not whatsapp.
Make them go sleep Jaree…
Who cares about dusting? Let’s see the job opportunity
Nice initiative. But it wont be easy for them to dust out whatsapp just like that. Anyways lets watch and see
this is what tstv said to dstv. hope they will be up to the task. will be waiting for the launch.
They may try but I doubt it will be easy to dust whatsapp
Good to dream.. Where is kingchat today??
How will it create jobs.?
Let’s see what they have to offer before they think about dusting whatsapp
Softalk i see … Nothing is impossible
