Dream big, but you can’t dream bigger than your level of exposure.

So I’ll say get some exposure. How?

Read books, travel, engage and connect with peoples experiences.

Then go back to dream. It doesn’t stop there, execute! Be fast about it too.

Churches and mosques have the best ‘distribution’ network in Nigeria. If anyone can crack it, then logistics/last mile delivery can be solved.

I did this for everyone who’s thriving despite Lupus, to everyone who’s winning despite the challenges of providing love and care to their to their loved one living with Lupus, and to everyone like myself who lost a loved one to the cruel disease. #Kili #LupusAwareness @LupusOrg

It’s fascinating to see how these lessons are now shaping financial systems globally.

In the early 2000s, the payments landscape saw significant innovation with the rise of startups focused on gateways and processing. Visa’s acquisition of Cybersource and RBS sale of WorldPay sparked a wave of fintech innovation, leading to the emergence of players like Stripe,etc

Instant payments in emerging markets weren’t just a convenience—they were a necessity, born out of the realities of operating in low-trust societies. Our payment infrastructure was built to address this challenge from the outset.

@asemota It gladdens our heart that 100% of our competitors are also our customers and/or partners. It is Live and Let Live at work.

[Mitchell Elegbe @ElegbeMitchell]

@asemota When you come from.a country where millions of talented people need jobs, your focus is to adopt a business model that allows other companies to grow and build the ecosystem with job creation, not necessarily profit maximisation as your primary goal

[Mitchell Elegbe @ElegbeMitchell]

@asemota Victor. Our strategy is not annihilation. It is live and let live. When you are a market leader with good infrastructure, your objective is to welcome others to use that infrastucture, not shut them out.

It could be the next play for Telco’s or a network aggregator like Onafriq. Logistics as a Service (LaaS) to eCommerce company. E-commerce would not thrive in Africa without a resilient last mile delivery service and a proper identification system just as the US has the SSN.

[Seun Yusuff @SeunYusuff]

Telco’s with large agent distribution in most emerging market countries might be the key to building a sustainable last mile delivery network. PoS agents, mobile money agents, etc., are in the most rural and most urban areas of these countries.

[Seun Yusuff @SeunYusuff]

@mungaicharles How would you go about solving the last mile problem ?

[Seun Yusuff @SeunYusuff]

@1ov1bri Be deliberate about your personal brand, e.g. show up to meetings or even friends hangout early. And travel if you have the opportunity, even a road trip from Lagos to Ghana does a lot.

@_DHELE @LupusOrg Thank you!

The real GOAT of selling were those men and women that sold drugs, anointing oil, mustard seeds, etc. in those Oshodi - Mile 2 - Ikorodu Molue buses. I just remembered how most of the techniques they used in selling was what I learnt doing online courses 😂

[Seun Yusuff @SeunYusuff]

@manesti1200 Exactly!

Who knows how MTN MoMo is doing so far since launch in NG? Since the acquisition of GTP by MFS, the Coy is positioned as a Tech behemoth in Africa. No other company has 320M aggregated users
