University lecturers fraud are quite sophisticated.
They use the class reps as agents. The class reps then communicates with the students via WhatsApp and other means and takes only cash. As a reward, class reps usually graduate with 2.1 or first class in addition to commissions.
When these cases are taken up to the university senate, some of the members there commit same fraud. Only fully exposed or disgraced lecturers are dismissed.
This is a major decay in our country.
This is the reason why many universities produce low quality graduates. Graduates who know absolutely nothing about what they studied.
The same lecturers will be hired by INEC as returning officers to destroy the destinies of millions of people for another 4 years.
We need to dismantle this evil and corrupt practice totally.
If we donโt fix this, nothing else matters.
Today is a special day at Flutterwave as we celebrate the birthday of our Founder and CEO, Olugbenga โGBโ Agboola (@TechProd_Arch), whose vision set this journey in motion.
Over the years, the world has watched Flutterwave grow into a force powering payments for businesses across Africa, building products that simplify how money moves, and connecting African businesses to a global stage.
But the truth is, these wins did not happen by chance. Every milestone was shaped by resilience, and the unwavering belief of a leader who knew, long before it was obvious, that Africa deserves world-class financial infrastructure.
Today, we celebrate the man behind the mission, the progress of the last decade, and the even greater milestones that lie ahead.
Happy Birthday, GB.
With love and gratitude from all of us at Flutterwave ๐
We kicked off this week with the launch of our โฆ20 billion Commercial Paper programme, starting with a โฆ3 billion Series 1 issuance.
It feels a bit surreal that this is happening in the same month we mark our 7th year in business.
I still remember a moment in 2019 when we couldnโt fulfil a loan request of โฆ5 million. ๐
Looking back now, itโs amazing to see the distance between that moment and where we are today.
Building a business or anything worthwhile is really a journey of small steps. Grateful to everyone who has been part of the journey so far.
You too can be a part of the journey - just buy small CP before spending it all this weekend ๐
Building anything that lasts requires skilled hands.
Today, we have 11 of them. 11 leaders stepping into deeper ownership. 11 builders trusted to take Cowrywise into its next phase of impact.
Meet our 11 cathedral builders:

One point I'd like to make about the @terraindustries round: it goes against the zeitgeist in the African VC ecosystem.
> It does not check the DFI impact box
> It's involves procurement and manufacturing
> It faces traditional industry contract cycles
> It got a big hardware component
> It has two young founders
These aspects meant it was out of mandate and comfort zone for almost all of Africa's VC firms - too risky, too weird, too non-consensus.
But our biggest issue today is we don't search for enough asymmetric upside in African venture anymore. I don't mean all these discussions of riding pre-seed to series A for a 10x secondary. I mean old-school, fund-making, assumption-breaking, high-loss rate, asymmetric upside that renders those above challenges worth facing.
And in a tech epoch that's about to put incredible pressure on Africa's age-old marketing pitch around population and purpose, we will fail if we don't take a hard look at how much the world has changed outside of our impact bubble. More often than not, new opportunities will be operationally complex, atoms-based, impossible-looking ventures made possible by this technological and geopolitical step-change.
It's my belief thst Terra should have had much more early support locally. As grateful as I am for this group of Tier 1 co-investors, institutional conviction in Africa's next-gen opportunities should not have to be spearheaded by Silicon Valley's biggest firms.
African venture must stand on its own global competitiveness. It must align with the disruption coming from synthetic intelligence. It must unearth high-ceiling rather than (just) high-floor deals.
We must, or we become irrelevant. More on this soon.
