Your uncle says tokunbo phones are "fake or stolen."
He's wrong, and I go show you 3 reasons why. But first, the word itself ๐
"Tokunbo" na Yoruba, from "tรณ ti รฒkun bแปฬ". Meaning "It came from across the sea."
That's all. E dey talk about the journey, not the quality. E no mean say na fake. E no mean say na stolen phone.
Wait, so why everybody dey fear am?
1. Used โ fake:
Your forex mentor wey dey promise you "guaranteed" 20% monthly returns?
I run the math. E no add up. At all.
Make I show you exactly why, and why dis one go save your money.
โ Here's the loop: if "guaranteed" 20% monthly dey real, that mentor for don turn โฆ100k to over โฆ9 billion in 36 months.
No bank. No investor. No fund manager go need another job again.
But dem still dey post flyer for โฆ50k mentorship class. Something no add up. We go come back to dis one sha.
โ Let's do the actual math, slow slow.

1. Used โ fake:
UK-used iPhone na original phone wey somebody don use before. Fake phone na clone. Dem no be the same thing.
2. Grade matters. Tokunbo get grades. Clean Grade A fit look like new with strong battery health.
3. Your uncle's story don old. He buy one bad phone for roadside in 2009, and now "all tokunbo na scam" for him head.
The real problem no be tokunbo. Na buying blind.
Before you pay for any tokunbo phone, check:
โ IMEI
โ Battery health
โ Face ID/Touch ID
โ iCloud sign-out (the one most people skip, and the one wey fit turn your phone to ordinary screen and battery)
Save this before your next purchase ๐
Everywhere good.
