I built DSDL Nigeria, but I am all over the place. I am crazy about sustainable designs, I love Arsenal and research random stuff.

We don't take design seriously in Africa. If we did, we would have unique toilets built for “most African men.” There is a specific problem that a lot of African men have in the morning with toilets that is embarrassing to describe. You now have to put a tissue barrier.

The Shalanga was great for this problem. I am redesigning an outdoor bathroom in Accra with a Shalanga and adding a urinal.

@ChimdiIbeawuchi My problem is that I can fast talk and communicate clearly but the other party will struggle to catch up.

Someone literally told me that she has to train her ears to follow up during our conversations 😅

Btw I am working on it; self consciousness before any convo intro

Maybe those people building isolated “white elephant” tech cities projects had a point. If I had to start a new tech fund, the first thing I would fund is real estate.

I would build well-organized living spaces around promising African universities where people from the diaspora and local innovators can live comfortably, free from the hazards of urban African life and the discomforts of a rural existence.

Most of the venture capital money being spent in Africa is like pouring water into a basket, as there is no talent retention. Many use African startups to improve their CVs before relocating, and I wouldn't blame them. Life is hard in most places at home.

Bubbles are bad but are necessary at this stage. If we don't retain as much African talent in Africa as possible, we will remain a pipeline instead of an ecosystem.

Who is bearing the cost?

Where does all the rainwater drain to ?

[Sir J (J9) @SirJarus]

After almost 8 hours of downpour today.

Arguably the best planned estate on the Island in terms of drainage system.

The architectural design of the first facility for our Center for Igbo Apprenticeship Program (Igba Boi) and Imu Oru Aka (Skill Training) is ready.

We will train our people in high-precision carpentry, welding, plumbing, HVAC, bricklaying, auto mechanics, etc.

The first center is in Enugu, and we are still developing the program structure.

Kindly watch and share your thoughts.
