This app is wild !
So Tosin who built moniepoint isn’t a scaler lol 😂 ! Person weh build unicorn isn’t a scaler because people who have blue tick on X say so lol 😂
Bonkers !
We’re watching Bayern and PSG go band for band, attack after attack. Enjoy this football while you can because tomorrow it will be like we’re watching a different sport.
I won’t even comment on the inaccuracies in the article. It’s just a shame that we are still pushing these ‘there is no x in Africa’ narratives when they have been repeatedly discredited.
Hmm… I’ve actually pitched multiple >$10m+ funding announcements to this same publication and the rounds were apparently ‘not big enough’ for them to cover.
At one point you start to question whether it’s inconsistency or something more sinister.
📣Execs and devs often preach about "touching grass." At Chowdeck, they actually do it.
Peculiar Erhisohwode is a founding engineer. She's built features used by millions. She also competes with her CEO, Femi Aluko, on the company's quarterly delivery leaderboard.
Yes, delivery. From street to street. With food in a bag.
At this Nigerian startup, every staff member keeps a rider profile.
New joiners complete 30 deliveries as part of onboarding. Annual delivery targets range from 15 to 30 per quarter. Even the C-suite.
Why? Because "delivery is not someone else's job," Aluko says. "Operational reality is often messier than the clean version you see in a dashboard."
The practice has birthed real product features. It has also surfaced uncomfortable truths about what data hides.

Fintechs are being robbed. Not by hackers, but by their own first “users”. I watched one lose $20 million despite heavy compliance.
I teamed up with @fintechiseasy to explain how and what to do about it.

I’ll always remember the moment I heard that Chowdeck team members were delivering orders themselves.
I’ve seen/heard a lot about African tech companies. This is one of the most remarkable.
In that moment, Chowdeck’s success started to make a lot more sense.
Just saw this while scrolling through our old chats. Pecs actually delivered so many meals and competed directly with me and Kunle for the highest number of staff deliveries quarterly.
She also has a hard time sleeping if her feature isn’t live 🥹.
Again, you can’t really be exceptional at something you don’t care about.
This is the ginger I actually need going into Q2.
Africa’s innovation model is a masterclass in market creation!
Following last week's UK-Nigeria state visit, I shared some insights with @EntrepreneurUK on what the UK business community can learn from the continent's entrepreneurs.
