Hamster Kombat Airdrop Leaves Nigerians Disappointed
In a surprising turn of events, the long-awaited airdrop from the crypto-mining app Hamster Kombat has left thousands of Nigerians frustrated and angry. After five months of non-stop tapping, users expected huge payouts, some dreaming of becoming millionaires.
However, when the coin finally launched, most users received only $1 to $4, with unconfirmed reports showing the highest payouts between $7 and $17. Social media erupted with outrage, as users expressed their disappointment in what they believed was a misleading campaign.
The app, which had promised to turn Nigerians into billionaires and CEOs, left many with small rewards, leading to widespread disillusionment. Though the coin launched with a market cap of $535.3 million and a trading volume of $448.7 million in the first 24 hours, it failed to meet user expectations.
The Federal Government trains 500 women and youths in food production and agriculture. The programme was started to support food security.
The Federal Ministry of Agriculture and Food Security partnered with the National Horticultural Research Institute (NIHORT).
The women and youths were taught tomato, okra and Telfairia production techniques. The government believes this will help boost agriculture, improve food production and strengthen the economy in Ogun State.
According to reports, fuel stations are reducing their prices a bit. This has become a general thing around Nigeria after the spike due to the removal of subsidy.
The prices are dropping to ₦1,275 and ₦1,299, going lower than ₦1,300 compared to what it was before.
MTN has moved closer to acquiring IHS Holding, following shareholder approval of the proposed takeover, marking another major milestone in the transaction.
The approval was secured during the Extraordinary General Meeting (EGM) held on 4 August, allowing the deal to progress to the next stage.
If completed, the acquisition is expected to strengthen MTN’s infrastructure capabilities by giving the company greater control over its telecommunications tower assets. Industry analysts believe the move could improve network efficiency, reduce long-term operating costs, and support MTN’s continued expansion across its markets.
The transaction is still subject to regulatory approvals and other closing conditions before it can be officially completed.
