Nigeria's Gen Z are dumping 9-5 for the Gig economy

Quick summary:

1. Size of the global gig economy: As of May 2019, there were more than 150 apps on the gig economy.

2. Flexibility in a gig economy often means workers have to make themselves available any time gigs come up, regardless of their other needs, and must always be on the hunt for the next gig. 

3. The gig economy is part of the labor force that is made up of workers who earn money from short-term contracts or freelance work rather than full-time jobs

Taking care of our gig workers

Quick summary:

1. The case of independent contractors like TNVS drivers, delivery riders, and drivers is quite different from those of online freelancers where they actually get into long-term contractual arrangements with the platforms and provide their own vehicles and tools to do their jobs.

2. In the case of TNVS delivery drivers and delivery riders, the set-up is referred to as an O2O model or an Online to Offline model where transactions are initiated online but actual fulfillment is done offline
