Would you rather build with:
Someone highly skilled but not particularly excited about what you’re building?
Or someone with medium-level skills who is genuinely hungry to build?
Skill matters.
But so does hunger.

Happy Independence Day, Nigeria 🇳🇬
We're celebrating the young Nigerians learning, building, creating and solving real problems every day.
The Nigeria we want won't build itself.
And we're proud to play our small part in equipping people to build it.
Here's to the builders. 🇳🇬
FOR PRODUCT MANAGERS AND PRODUCT MANAGERS ONLY
Without asking ChatGPT or Claude AI, answer this question:
It’s Tuesday morning. You’re the PM for a Nigerian savings app.
Last week Friday, your team released a new onboarding flow for people opening their first savings plan. The change moved ID verification from the end of onboarding to the middle, because Growth believed fewer people would drop off if they saw the savings options earlier.
Since the release:
1. Account creation is unchanged: 10,400 people started onboarding last week; 6,100 still create an account.
2. But the percentage of new users who complete BVN/NIN verification has fallen from 68% to 47%.
3. The biggest drop happens after users upload their ID and tap “Continue.”
4. iPhone users are completing verification at roughly the old rate. Android users on devices with older operating systems are not.
5. Your verification vendor’s dashboard shows a spike in selfie_liveness_timeout errors on Android since Friday.
Support has 183 tickets with versions of: “I uploaded everything three times and it keeps taking me back,” “Is my BVN safe?” and “Why are you asking for my face after I already entered my NIN?”
Engineering says the vendor is slow because of poor mobile connections and wants to add a retry button.
Compliance says you cannot remove the liveness check, skip verification or allow people to deposit before approval.
Growth wants the team to change the onboarding copy immediately because “users are probably scared.”
You have one mobile engineer, one backend engineer and five working days before a paid acquisition campaign brings 40,000 new installs.
What do you do in the first 24 hours?
If your mind just went completely blank, then you still have a lot to learn to become a skilled product manager.

But don't just take the test, take action! You can either join our WhatsApp channel to get free resources occasionally or register for our 12-week intensive learning program.
But first, know where you stand.
A manager can give you the perfect solution and still handle the conversation badly.
Because sometimes people aren’t asking for a solution.
Communication isn’t just about what you say.
It’s also about recognising what the other person needs from the conversation.
