The risk in buying
For many phone is a necessity in this modern world.
In th seventies through the nineties the availability of phone is so rare that in some towns of ten thousand people you could have as low as five phone which are all table phones, then acquiring a phone is a luxury to a lots of people, for this reason phones are found in the houses of very influential personalities and you can see many people using the same number on their business cards, when anyone has a call, the caller will be told to call back while the whole village send words around o the person the call is meant for to be around to receive his call.
In those gone days staffs of Nigerin telecommunication limited are kings as they charge huge amounts to help you get a line and this could take mounts to arrive.
Fast forward to our current world the phone has become so common that an individual could have as many as numbers all to himself.
The technology has also improved massively to a level that when a phone is lost or stolen its left to the owner to either look for it or let it go.
Lost phon can now b tracked and through so many trackers from the application store,for this its not advisable for anyone to buy a used phone that you don't know the original owner that bought the phone newly.
A friend of mine seyi is currently in the cell for no fault of his but because of someone that called him with a phone that was in a car that was stolen by armed robbers. Seyi operates rental business and has lots of young boys coming around to work for him whenever they are on holidays. The boy is in the university outside Lagos from where he called seyi that he needs fund to pay for his school fees which as a somebody with large heart seyi sent to the boy.
Few days after seyi was arrested by the police for receiving a call from a phone stolen together in a snatched car. This is the story is just developing and I keep you posted with new updates.
