Are you a Nigerian in need of a website where you can make purchases, buy and sell brand new products, used products, etc then I recommend Google Trader Nigeria.

Is it Safe To Trader On Google Trader?
Many people do believe there are lots of scammers on the internet. Yes, it’s true. I have also been a victim a couple of times but the truth still stands that, there are legitimate people online.
Although these set of people are rear, I have also been opportune to do business online with such people and sure got my services delivered.
Whether or not, trade done on Google trader marketplace is safe, is something I really can’t guarantee. So, I advise you to be careful with your business in the marketplace. I’d advise you to even meet the buyer/seller one on one if possible to be sure you get your purchases.

An alternative at this point for Nigerians would be OLX and Jiji.
