I expect to receive tickets for Maldives, not Kenya or Morocco as alternative options. I can cover my own expenses if I choose to visit Kenya or Morocco.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Regarding Quidax&#8217;s offer of N13 million, supposedly reflecting the 2022 value of 1 BTC, I reminded them that in November 2022, 1 BTC was valued at N22 million. Despite their claim of N13.8 million, my Google search confirmed that 1 BTC was approximately N19 million in November 2022.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;If Quidax had provided me with 1 BTC in 2022, I would now possess approximately N96 million. So, offering me N13 million raises concerns about the losses I&#8217;ve incurred over the past two to three years.&#8221;<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By Cynthia Abah Big Brother Naija Season 7 winner Josephina Otabor, also known as Phyna, has turned down a N13 million offer from Quidax, one of the sponsors of the reality show.
