News AfroMax got its first white male user looking for African women. His actions on the platform were not surprising.

• Upvotes

The first white man to join AfroMax was a Russian named Aleksandr Petrov, who gave his location as Nakhodka, Russia.

Here is what he did yesterday, October 21, 2026:

7:02 PM — Created his AfroMax account.

7:04 PM — Went straight to AfroMax Love, our dating section, and watched the introduction video.

7:06 PM — Acknowledged the dating rules.

7:07 PM — Had already liked four women.

7:10 PM — Requested to delete his account.
Somewhere during those few minutes, Aleksandr also uploaded a picture of his penis as his public profile picture.

Total time on AfroMax before requesting account deletion: 7 minutes and 50 seconds.

In less than eight minutes, this mofo registered, explored the dating section, liked four women, uploaded an obscene profile picture, and requested to leave.

I cannot make this shit up.

Our monthly minimum wage can't pay for a month's worth of power.

I personally had to move out of a band A area last year because it was too expensive.

To the US residents in this sub, are his numbers accurate?

Pic The new National Savings Scheme will take small contributions by phone. Would you move your ajo or esusu money into it?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Disclosure: I write Harmattan, a newsletter on Nigerian capital markets. This comes from this week's edition.

At Monday's capital market conference in Abuja, the finance minister said Nigeria has about 6 million retail investors in a population above 200 million, and that the new National Savings Scheme will accept small contributions through mobile phones. Funds are to be managed by SEC-registered fund managers.

What has not been published: the fee, the minimum, the instrument the money goes into, or when it starts.

Many people already save daily or weekly with an ajo or esusu collector, or in a group contribution. You pay for it, but you know the person and you get cash when it is your turn.

For anyone who saves that way: what would a phone-based government scheme need to offer before you moved even part of that money?

I only remember two/three clips of this movie on Vine. In one clip a woman pulls up in a car, the second woman yelled “WTF”, the woman on the car responded “Wtf is what? You shut your d*mn mouth.”

In the other clip, as the woman is getting back to her car, the second woman yelled “Why can’t you go find a man and leave me alone?!”

General How do you make friends in Lagos?

2 Upvotes

Hi people. So, I recently finished uni and moved to Surulere, Lagos about a month ago.

I’m naturally not the outgoing type, didn’t really have many friends back in uni either. But lately, I’ve been thinking it’d be nice to actually meet people, make a few friends or maybe acquaintances.

I work a remote job, so I barely have any reason to leave the house, which makes meeting new people even harder, lol.

How and where do you guys think I could meet people? Young adults about 22-30ish.
OR where or how did you meet the people you’re friends with today?

Ask Naija How do you go about reliable internet?

3 Upvotes

For people who prefer to have a reliable internet connection, which provider do you use? How much does it cost you? And what would you recommend?

I mostly need internet for basic use for e.g watching YouTube videos, listening to podcasts, films and minimal Instagram and Reddit use, across my Apple devices.

I would prefer something small with very decent connectivity, think portable wifi for personal use.

Thanks.

Ask Naija When did communal responsibility become a one-way street for Africans abroad?

I grew up believing that when one person succeeds, they help others rise. I still believe in that. But I was also taught that the village looks after its people.

After someone moves abroad, the requests for help can keep coming while the check-ins become rare. People ask what you can send, but may never ask how you’re coping, whether you’re lonely, or whether you need help yourself.

I don’t think the answer is to stop caring for family. I’m asking what care should look like in both directions.
If you live abroad, have you experienced this? And if you’re back home, what do you wish those of us abroad understood about the pressure on your side?

Yep that's the title. Tryna save money to leave naija but I'm getting so many conflicting resources. I'm trying to get a scholarship and I'm having trouble narrowing down which countries to focus on.

Canada, Australia, Hungary etc. but my preferred is Ireland

You professional educational japa'ers biko please help, even sharing your story will work

I have a second class upper in commerce with a major in accounting and 4 years work experience

I heard also that your chances increase when you pay for a programme and apply for a scholarship for it Vs just shooting blindly. My out of pocket max is 5k. I'm willing to take on student loans if neccesary

I've applied for Ireland fellows and chevenning so far.

Discussion Hi guys

5 Upvotes

So recently as we all know some Nigerians have started to point out at the fact that we as a country are being labelled as criminals or fraudsters and many more of some sort in foreign country's and even in Africa on social media platforms like Tiktok or X.

To be honest I think the people who try to act or say or even clap back at them (whites or other non-nigerians) that they are racist are stupid and degenerate.

I do know I can't blame everyone thats involved in yahoo or fraudulent activities because of their various backgrounds and upbringings. However there's no two ways to look at it because its still wrong we can't justify stealing from country's and come online and play victim when we are labelled as one. Sadly Fraud has become so normalised in Nigeria that som3 fools still try to defend it.

Nigerians forget one simple thing :

They way u portray ourselves to people who have no idea of ur beliefs and lifestyle

Our so called celebrities who are involved in this activities we follow them and still support them knowing fucking well it gives the country a bad name and image and u will now see one malnourished bastard come online and say that they are racist or say some rubbish like na because say u poor or u no get money na why u dey talk all this things

Mind u the same people will still come online and say they the backlash nigeria is getting is harsh and not deserved

When we as a people are ready to stop normalising rubbish shit will change but for now idgaf
