The
present economic situation in Nigeria makes saving money ever more
important. But, imbibing and embracing the saving culture is a challenge
for many.
In
the past, parents encouraged their children to save by buying them a
saving box but you rarely find a saving box in homes today. However,
trust technology to provide downloadable apps that will encourage you to
save money as well as track your expenditures. Jovago.com, Africa’s No
1 hotel booking portal points you to some of these apps.

address and distance. It is simply an app for finding cheap and
affordable fuel. It is another way of saving money.
