About the AidaPay journal

The AidaPay journal answers the questions people in Nigeria ask about the bills that come every week: which data plan gives the most for the money, how to share or borrow airtime, why a prepaid meter rejects a token, which GOtv or DStv package to pay for, and where to buy a WAEC or NECO result checker PIN.

Each article is written for one search and answers it first, then walks through the steps. Codes and prices are checked on the network, DisCo or exam body's own pages, every price shows the date it was correct, and an article is updated when a price or a code changes.

Start with a category above, search for the exact thing you need, or open the guides for the codes most people look for.
