Niiyo.com has
gained so much prominence on the social media with thousands of followers on
Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Instagram, Linkedin and others. So many
expectations are trailing the emergence of the company and for this reason we
fixed an appointment with the Operations Manager of the firm in person of Mr
Samson Ojei. This is for the purpose of answering the popular questions the
public have been raising about the company.
Interviewer:
Good day Mr Samson Ojei, pardon my pronunciation of your last name.
Mr Samson Ojei:
*smiling* It’s okay sir.
Interviewer:
Sir, please tell us about yourself.
Mr Samson Ojei:
My name is Samson Ojei as you know. I am an entrepreneur who has long years of
experiences in diverse businesses across the country as well as abroad. By the
grace of God, I am the Chief-Executive Officer of South Atlantic Travels with
our head office in Ikeja, Lagos.
Interviewer:
Thanks so much Sir. Please, can you tell us what Niiyo E-commerce Limited is
all about?
Samson Ojei: Niiyo
is an online shopping mall. Niiyo can safely be regarded as Nigeria’s Most
Exclusive Online shopping platform.We are into massive sales of items in the
category of women’s fashion, men’s fashion, phones, computers, electronics,
baby toys & kids, home & kitchen, sports & fitness, music, movies,
books and a lot more. Our goods are of international standards in alignment
with the reputation of our mother company abroad.We are well determined not only
be the best and largest online market mall in Nigeria, but also to be most
consumer friendly and offer best to our customers at best prices ever. We are launching
with thousands of products, and 35 product categories. Our unbeatable prices,
free shipping, secure, easy payment and buyer protection guarantee will surely
encourage millions of buyers.
Interviewer:
That’s quite impressive sir. But sir I perceive so much passion in the tone of
your voice. I will like to know your major motivation about the Niiyo project
which is a great task ahead.
Mr Samson Ojei:
Thank you. As I have always said in the series of interviews I have granted on
Television stations and radio stations; our major onus at Niiyo.com is beyond
monetary gains. Giving back to the people and making life more comfortable for
them is our mission. Firstly, we are striving hard to reduce the high rate of
youth unemployment in Nigeria which is above 60% by contributing our own little
quota. We have employed hundreds of young people who are highly talented but
lack opportunities to champion our cause in Nigeria. Adequate remuneration has
been given to them with several incentives in a first class working environment
to bring the best out of them.
In addition to
that, some are being trained by professionals in specialized Information
Technology positions as well as marketing to improve their skills and ideas.
Furthermore, we
are also motivated by the unflinching desire to ensure a customer gets maximum
utility over goods purchased from Niiyo E-commerce Limited.
We also want to
help small businesses grow in Nigeria and to operationalize this grand plan, we
have created a network of local merchants in Lagos for the sole purpose of
introducing their merchandise to the outside world on a massive scale all for
free. I wish I could continue with other motivating factors but time mayn’t
permit me.
Interviewer:
This is really brilliant sir having an entrepreneur with the interests of
people at heart.
Mr Samson Ojei:
*Smiling* Thanks so much sir.
Interviewer:
You are welcome sir.
So sir, Niiyo
E-commerce Limited going by the social media trends is highly anticipated and
we just got a wind of a recent change of the launching date. What is the cause
of the delay?
Mr Samson Ojei:
Well…… the E-commerce sector in Nigeria especially in Lagos which is the
commercial city in Nigeria is highly competitive. I don’t want to go into
mentioning the names of our numerous competitions. We are focused on correcting
the ills and covering the loopholes that have marred the industry with
customers at the receiving end. For this task, a lot of concrete plans are
needed ranging from staffing, training, purchase of equipment, machineries and
drawing an efficient managerial sketch for optimum execution of services as
well as publicity and others. We are taking our time in order not to be found
guilty of the problems we are advocating against. So finally, the 20th
of July, 2015 has been set for the official launching date of Niiyo E-commerce
Limited.
Interviewer:
my next question centers on the strength of Niiyo.com which is just a start-up
company. What makes you think Niiyo E-commerce Limited stands a chance against
its competitors in the industry despite the head-start advantage they have?
Mr Samson Ojei:
That is really good question I must confess. Permit to say it is not a
herculean task. I believe wherever there is a will, there is a way. That is my
philosophy of life. It is all about channeling our energy into the right
direction.
Niiyo E-commerce
Limited is built around certain values that will certainly make us stand out
among out competitors in the market. We operate on customer-centered approach.
This ideology has been highly incorporated in the training of our members of
staff. This ranges from our customer care services, goods delivery, promotional
incentives, quality of goods for sale and others. This at the long run will
help secure the patronage of a wide range of customers in Lagos and across
Nigeria as a whole.
We provide adequate technology and services to
enable consumers, merchants and other participants to conduct commerce on our
platforms. Niiyo.com provides a better business environment for the benefit of
both sellers and buyers to boost business growth.
Niiyo.com has heavy investments in e-commerce
research programmes for the purposes of developing new techniques to help
businesses grow and discover new opportunities. This is to encourage
innovations to serve our clients better.
And also, Niiyo.com is easily accessible on
personal computers and all manners of internet-enabled mobile devices to ensure
convenience in shopping from wherever you are. We are so strong on search
engines. This will increase our outreach within our targeted customers.
We speak your local language of our clients. This
goes a long way in addressing the issue of firm and client relationship in the
E-commerce industry which has been neglected by big firms. The strong desire of
every buyer is maximum utility over desired goods and services. At Niiyo.com,
we will rather incur a financial loss than lose a SINGLE customer no matter the
level of patronage.
Interviewer: *Cutting in* Thanks
sir, I think that is……….
Mr
Samson Ojei:*Cuts in* Please permit me to elucidate this matter.
Thanks so much, as I was saying, Niiyo.com
boasts of a huge wealth of experience in e-commerce with a strong impression in
U.S.A and Dubai.
Niiyo.com has hugely invested in the
recruiting and training of super-talented and energetic young workers to
champion its business course in Nigeria.
We have instituted a wide coverage in Nigeria
to ensure quick delivery STRICTLY within 24 to 48hrs of transaction regardless
of your location. Niiyo.com deals with commodities of international standards
due to its affiliations across Nigerian borders at highly subsidized rates for
the good of all classes of people in the society.
The list is virtually endless but we will like
to put a halt here.
Interviewer: Thanks so much Sir
for the long list of strengths. They are really insightful.
Mr
Samson Ojei: You are welcome sir. It has been a great pleasure granting this
interview.
Interviewer: We hope you grant us audience the
next time we come around?
Mr
Samson Ojei: Most certainly sir.
Interviewer:Are there any parting
words you will like to share with the public?
Mr Samson Ojei: I urge all anticipating
clients to patronize us with fear of disappointment. Your interests are our
concern at Niiyo. They should also keep tabs on us through our website,
Niiyo.com, our Facebook page; https://www.facebook.com/niiyomall and twitter which is
@Niiyomall for the dissemination of information.
