*8-year network opens public access through Bigisub collaboration

By Kenneth Oboh

In a country where Ponzi schemes have become almost predictable platforms launching with promises, collecting funds, and vanishing, one organisation says it is offering a counternarrative.

RIF Elite Growth Alliance (REGA), a private partnership network reported to have been in operation since 2017 without a single recorded dispute with any partner, has announced the launch of Afroxtend, a digital gateway designed to grant public access to its Tech and agricultural R&D partnership cycles for the first time.

The launch comes through a partnership with Bigisub, a micro utility platform available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

Speaking on the development, Omoba Adekoya, described as one of REGA’s prominent founding members and the broker behind the Bigisub partnership, said the timing was deliberate.

“Nigerians have been burned repeatedly. Every few months, another platform collapses, and thousands lose money. We have watched this happen for years while running a network that has never failed a single partner. At some point, staying hidden felt selfish,” Adekoya stated.

According to the organisation, REGA began in 2017 as an informal network connecting businessminded individuals in Nigeria, Dubai, and the United Kingdom. The model involves partners pooling resources into verified business ventures such as agriculture, trade, logistics and sharing profits at the end of each cycle. The organisation claims some annual cycles have yielded as high as 120% compound returns for partners, depending on venture performance.

By 2021, the network reportedly expanded to include partners in Canada and the United States, growing strictly through recommendations from verified members.
Folake Adeyanju, an Ibadanbased trader who says she joined REGA in 2019, shared her experience.

“When I joined, my business was struggling. I started small because I did not trust it. But every cycle, my returns came exactly when they said with no stories. Three years later, I run two shops at Iwo Road. My brother saw what happened to me and joined a few months later,” she claimed.

She added: “In Nigeria, when something is good, you protect it. Once too many people know about it, they rush in and spoil it. That is why I kept quiet. But if they are now opening it to the public with proper verification, maybe it is time for others to benefit.”

The first project under Afroxtend, Gateway Prime (Nigeria), is now live. According to the organisers, allocation remains limited, and participants are onboarded at a controlled rate following a standard KYC verification process.

“We are not after the crowds,” Adekoya noted. “But partners who understand the process and stay consistent earn well. Some partners have reached a point where their cycle earnings are enough to live on monthly without a traditional job.”

Afroxtend is said to be accessible via the RIF Africa website or through the Bigisub app on Apple App Store and Google Play Store.
