Leading online

State ministries to form a mutually beneficial relationship
between OLX and
the government.
The ministries
and agencies visited by the OLX team were Lagos State Traffic Management
Authority (LASTMA), Ministry of Science & Technology,
Federal Road
Safety Corps (FRSC), Ministry of Local Communities and Communication, Ministry
of Wealth & Creation and the Lagos Chambers of Commerce & Industry.
Speaking on the
objective of the visits Uche Nwagboso, PR & Communications Lead, OLX stated
that “ One of the values at OLX is making the community win; thus, it is important for us to support government
agencies and ministries whose key goals and objectives align with ours as they
are important to our users and the wider community.
Nwagboso also
adds, “key issues discussed were education on road safety, getting more people
especially the youth to adapt to technology, building and developing local
communities, job creation, empowering
SME’s and so on.”
She further
stated that OLX is also excited to help the ministries and government agencies sell their unused personal
items.
Last year, OLX
revised the online classified model by launching a premium service named
Do-It-For-Me (D.I.F.M). D.I.F.M helps busy executives with the help of the OLX Champs who are
sales experts sell their items. They handle posting the item on the site,
taking calls from buyers, negotiating for the right price and closing the deal.
OLX is the world’s leading classifieds
platform in growth markets and is available in more than 45 countries and over
50 languages. OLX connects local people to buy, sell or exchange used goods and
services by making it fast and easy for anyone to post an ad through the mobile
application. Every month, hundreds of millions of people in local markets
around the world use OLX’s online marketplace to find and sell a wide range of
products, including vehicles, electronics, phones and much more.
