    MAX App is Giving Out Free Tickets to See  “Avengers: Infinity War”

    Nigeria’s first on-demand motorcycle app, MAX, has announced that it is giving out free tickets to see the “Avengers” to both its new and existing customers.

    On Monday night, in Hollywood, the largest contingent of Marvel superheroes converged for the world premiere of “Avengers: Infinity War.”  MAX wants you to be a part of the advance screening of Infinity and so the motorcycle taxi service is offering 50 free tickets to 50 people!

    Hello humans of the country Nigeria, what is this I am hearing? that some have you haven’t downloaded or referred thine friends? I Thor, son of Odin commandest that thou do so and come watch me and my comrades defeat our greatest enemy THANOS! pic.twitter.com/IEv9Kuuu9F

    — MAX (@maxdotng) April 24, 2018

    How to Claim your Free Avengers Infinity War Movie Ticket

    1. Download the MAX app

    2. Share your referral code with 5 of your friends and get them download the MAX app

    3. Get them to take a trip with MAXgo app atleast once.

    And voila, the ticket is yours! Easy as M.A.X. This offer is exclusive to both new and existing costumers.

    About the Max App

    The Max app provides a last mile delivery service option (MAX Now) coupled with a ride hailing service using 200cc motorcycle (MAX Go).

    The app gives you the opportunity to actually get an estimate before you hail a ride.

    Max is expanding but until we do, you can only book a ride and get a MaxChampion in these locations in Lagos. New Locations coming every week. #Maxgo pic.twitter.com/K5W8H5IG1A

    — MAX (@maxdotng) April 24, 2018

    So the next time you are stuck in traffic and in need of a way out, simply get a motorcycle ride at the tap of a button. Get a helmet and a hairnet and you are on your way.

    The Max app gives you the option to pay with your debit card, MAX wallet or cash and most importantly, provides feedback about your trip.

    It is not your village people, only you, by yourself is doing yourself, spending long hours in line for a bus, when you can get a quick, safe and comfortable ride at a great price. #MaxGo #Leggo pic.twitter.com/hjjpzR5fMY

    — MAX (@maxdotng) April 24, 2018

    Is the Max’s Transportation Service Better Than Okada?

    For each trip, Max Go comes with a helmet for the rider and passenger, complete hand wipes and a hairnet for the ladies.

    Customers can also save extra bucks on their commutes since MAX Go offers a much cheaper alternative when compared to Okadas. In fact, MAX Go offers 65 Naira per kilometre after your first two kilometres, which is about 40% cheaper than what you would get if you took an Okada.

    Almost quitting time, get home safe and in time with MAX GO #weekend #weekendvibes #lagos #nigeria #transport #movewithmax pic.twitter.com/Si5gngJuBa

    — MAX (@maxdotng) October 13, 2017

    The motorcycle transportation service has also argued that Okadas are boring while Power Bikes are cool. MAX Go offers customers the opportunity to request a 200cc Power bike to them around the city and help them beat traffic.

    From testimonials, the MAX Go experience is a thrilling one, with users remarking on the awesome feeling of cruising around town on a Power Bike. The app is available on Google Play Store or you can visit www.max.ng.

    For many people, managing money and knowing the ri For many people, managing money and knowing the right opportunities to invest in is still a challenge. A survey of over 2,000 youths in Nigeria, Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania and Cote D’Ivoire by Geopoll revealed that more young Nigerians only save after spending than their counterparts in other countries.

More youths in Tanzania and Uganda set aside a fixed amount to save than in Nigeria and Ivory Coast, who are more likely to save what remains after spending

The popularity of apps like @Piggybankng and @Cowrywise has made more people curious about saving, investing and creating a financial strategy to grow their money. However, there is need for more apps that take a more deliberate and friendly approach towards gaining financial intelligence and map out a sustainable path to monetary stability.

This is where Fundall comes in. @get_Fundall is a fintech service whose app is available for download on android and iOS.

    Things are gradually returning to normal as the nu Things are gradually returning to normal as the number of covid-19 cases continues to fall. Although it may take a while before we hug people or shake hands without second thoughts, things are getting better.

Only 523 new cases were recorded between April 6 and 13. This is a slight increase compared to the 497 people that tested positive over the previous week. Two weeks earlier, Technext reported that 584 people tested positive.

The numbers show a sustained decrease in the spread of infections across the country. Indeed the Lagos state government is now confident enough to allow event centres and relaxation centres to increase their crowd capacity. Along with that, here are other developments during the week.

    Today, @Google unveils a Doodle to posthumously ma Today, @Google unveils a Doodle to posthumously mark the 74th birthday of Nigerian music legend and highlife maestro Oliver de Coque, one of Africa’s most prolific recording artists of all time.

The Doodle, created by Lagos-based graphic artist and illustrator @OhabTBJ, pays tribute to the guitarist who died in June 2008 at the age of 61, following a heart attack. The creative inspiration was drawn from De Coque’s love for the guitar, his energetic performance style, his unique music brand, and his love of tradition and culture.
