Palmchat introduces jaw dropping win a car promo for users


Hopping from one bus to the other can be a really stressful business especially in a country like Nigeria. With people waiting on the queue for the next bus headed toward their direction, the chances of surviving the rush are really slim. Since everyone wants to get to work early and return back home early, they give no room to be outshined by the next individual, and so the struggle continues.






The story is however different for those who have the option of subscribing to the stress free life. They would rather they take a cab than have to stand in long queue all in a bid to “rush their way” into a bus. But then, this has its own disadvantage- The cost involved. Cab men make a fortune of “carless” individuals by charging as high as N3000to N5000 per trip. Say one goes two trips per day, that’s a total of N6000 to N10, 000…Keeping up with this lifestyle would require that one budget between N250, 000 and N300, 000per month for transportation alone. The question is, how sustainable is that?

Palmchat, the ‘on board’ instant messaging app, in a bid to solve the transportation problem is offering an opportunity for a car to be won. Winning the car however comes with a prize, a prize that can be paid by anyone interested.
