Sokoto Central Market, Kara and the secretariat

Central Market for the buying, the secretariat for the queue, UDUS out on the Birnin Kebbi road. Send a verified runner and pay at the handover rather than in advance.

No runners in Sokoto yet
Zendrun started in Ibadan and Lagos. You can post an errand in Sokoto and it will sit on the board until a verified runner here takes it — so if you need it today, that is the honest answer. If you are in Sokoto and want the work, every errand posted here is yours to take.

How sending someone works

  1. 1
    Post and fund

    Say what you need, the most the runner may spend, and a fee. That total is held from your wallet. Nothing goes live unfunded.

  2. 2
    They run it

    A verified runner accepts, checks in from the queue or the counter, and pays with their own money up to your ceiling.

  3. 3
    Hand over

    They show a 6-digit code; you type it into your phone. That releases the money — their spend back, plus the fee. Anything unused returns to you.

The errands people ask about most

Why a runner can be trusted with your money
Nobody can front a naira until they have passed phone, national ID with a liveness selfie, and a bank account in their own name. What they may spend is capped by how far through that they have gone — and by the ceiling you set on the errand.
