It’s been around a year since the hashtag #BuyNaijatoGrowtheNaira was first featured on Twitter. This time was more than enough to emphasize the significance of buying products made in Nigeria. While the Nigerians keep track of American and European trends and innovations, AfriOne produces the Smartphones that are also worth attention.
#BuyNaijatoGrowtheNaira
Naira is unstable and it has been through the period of the constant fall. Nigerians can continue blaming government and authorities, or we can rearrange the balance. The more people spend naira for buying imported goods, the less they invest in the development of Nigerian technological development.
What is the solution? Of course, we will not cut all ties with the outer world, but the least we can do is pay more attention to what is made in Nigeria.
Meet Nigerian Smartphones
AfriOne has launched the first line of smartphones, assembled in Nigeria. The details are imported, but the design and features have been developed by the local specialists. Several in-country models are already available on the market.
The management guarantees the wide range of technologically advanced and innovative products, including dual-SIM smartphones, educational tablets, and smartwatches. In long-time perspective, the details will be manufactured locally, too.

Why AfriOne
AfriOne devices cannot compete with the flagmans offered by Apple or Samsung. Nevertheless, they are a fair alternative to basic models, offered by Chinese manufacturers. These devices have all basic features for business and personal use. The price is affordable, probably lower than average on the market. A customer gets the ultimate price-quality combination.
What is more important, every purchase of AfriOne device is an investment in the development of Nigerian technologies. Modern sleek design, mobile education and banking functions, innovative solutions targeted for local users – everything requires some time and financing. It took only three days for #BuyNaijaToGrowTheNaira hashtag to be featured on CNN and on BBC. You may be the one to help the hashtag become reality while using your brand new device.
