Are Nigerians actually loyal to brands, or are we just loyal to whoever gives us the best deal?
From switching supermarkets because of a discount to choosing one food spot over another because of great customer service, the way we spend our money says a lot about what we value. In this episode of So Nigerian Podcast, we sit down with Amaka, Product Manager at Rewrd, to unpack how Nigerians shop, what keeps us coming back to certain businesses, and why customer loyalty is changing.
Together, we explore why traditional loyalty programmers often miss the mark, the role of technology in improving customer experiences, and how businesses can build lasting relationships beyond just offering discounts. Amaka also breaks down how Rewrd’s connected rewards ecosystem is helping customers earn more value from their everyday spending while helping businesses retain loyal customers.
Whether you’re a consumer looking to get more from your everyday purchases or a business owner wondering how to keep customers coming back, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.
Enjoy The Episode !! 💚

2. Grief Has No Timeline!
01:37:09||Season 7, Ep. 2Please Watch, Comment & Like https://youtu.be/Ycc8SWfEayw?si=-PJMnjBmCqHXBWW6This week on So Nigerian Podcast, we’re joined by Betty for a deeply honest conversation about losing her mum, navigating life after such a life-changing loss, and the reality of grieving in Nigeria.Betty shares how her mum fell ill for three months before passing away just days before the New Year, the emotional weight of those final months, and what it has been like learning to live with her absence. Together, we talk about the unexpected ways grief shows up, the things people say that help (and the ones that don’t), and why Nigerians often don’t give people enough room to grieve before expecting them to “move on.”This is a heartfelt conversation about love, loss, healing, and the reminder that grief doesn’t have a timeline. If you’ve ever lost someone or are supporting someone through loss, we hope this episode makes you feel a little less alone.Enjoy The Episode !! 💚SEND US YOUR DILEMMAS:sonigerian.com/DilemmaJOIN THE WHATSAPP CHANNEL:https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbBii6eLtOjA3h8LHg2BFOLLOW US ON:http://twitter.com/sonigerian_http://Instagram.com/sonigerian_http://twitter.com/damiar0shttp://instagram.com/_damiiaros7http://twitter.com/medici__ihttps://instagram.com/medici.ihttp://twitter.com/betybutr
