Speaking at the press conference, the OLX country manager, Lola Masha stated that
“the partnership between 2 trusted brand in Nigeria - Mandilas and OLX - is truly one of a kind. It reinforces OLX’s commitment to enhancing its users experience on  the platform and also provides a nationwide reach for Mandilas”. She also stated that “this collaboration with Mandilas validates the effectiveness of OLX as a platform with a wide range of vehicles where buyers can find great car deals and trade with trusted sellers”.

The partnership will offer eligible users who post their cars for sale on the OLX site, an opportunity to have their cars screened and evaluated for free. At the end of the screening, the user will get an evaluation certificate from Mandilas that will state the current market value of the car as well as the condition of each part of the car.  This will benefit both the buyer who is worried about the worth and condition of the car they want to buy and the seller who is not sure of the  monetary value of the car.
