Building a Tech Community That Actually Changes Lives In 2017, I started House of Tech Community with a simple idea: create a space where people don’t just talk about tech, but actually grow in it. Today, the community has grown to 1,300+ active members on WhatsApp and

One thing life has taught me is that seasons change. No situation stays the same forever. I have watched a friend stay unemployed for more than a year, waking up every day wondering how things would ever improve. Today, that same person is financially stable, driving his own

The tech industry you entered 10 years ago is gone 😒. I’ve analysed the data from WEF, LinkedIn, and McKinsey. The hiring logic has completely flipped. We aren't just operating tools anymore; we are partnering with intelligence. Here are the 6 shifts defining your career

The Haier factory in Enugu is more than a ribbon cutting moment. A $20m plant with a planned $30m expansion signals a shift from import dependence to local production. Nigeria currently imports a large share of its household appliances. According to the National Bureau of

This is actually solid advice. Many people think japa ends at airport, but na skill go determine how fast you stabilize when you land. If you carry only certificate without something you can do with your hands or monetize immediately, the first year go humble you. Blue collar

At first glance this looks like a cost of living decision, but it’s really about opportunity, not just salary. Most of the places with the higher pay give you comfort, but limited movement. You’ll earn well, save small small, but the chances to multiply that money are low. Fewer

Sometimes I wonder if we have misplaced the role of traditional rulers in community development. In a place like Ikorodu with a large and energetic youth population and unstable power supply, you would expect serious efforts to attract investors who can set up shared workspaces,

For many people I’ve spoken with before, I always say I refuse to be religious, I identify as a Christian. Some of you want to evangelise for Christ but still insist on doing it exactly the way John the Baptist, Paul, Peter or Ayo Babalola did thousands of years ago when there

Can we say today’s Nigerian system of governance sometimes feels like a modern version of the colonial structure? Power is no longer in foreign hands, yes. But many people still feel the same distance between government and the people, control without consent, weak

Davos 2026 sent one clear message. Africa is moving from headlines to real investment opportunities. Energy, AI, food systems, and trade all took centre stage, showing a continent ready for scale. See why global investors are paying attention.

Africa’s stock markets are no longer a “future opportunity.” They are outperforming global benchmarks right now — with returns in Kenya, Malawi, Nigeria, and Zambia beating some of the world’s biggest indices.

One of the biggest lessons from the last election was how fragile public trust becomes when transparency tools fail. The iReV downtime did more than interrupt a website. It interrupted confidence. People were told results would be visible in real time, then they waited for hours

Online advocacy works in Western political systems because institutions there respond to public pressure. In Nigeria, and much of Africa, history has shaped a very different reality. From the First Republic in 1963, through military rule, and into the Fourth Republic, the state

African founders want bigger cheques, but the data tells a clear story. Seed is where dreams are tested, but growth is where capital follows conviction. Out of more than 3,500 VC deals in Africa, only 5 percent were growth-stage, yet they attracted 7.5 billion dollars.

Africa’s toughest founders aren’t just talented. They’re built different. From PiggyVest to LifeBank to MAX, the most resilient builders on the continent share habits that keep them moving even when the ecosystem gets rough.

A seed round is where investor belief meets early-stage innovation. It funds prototypes, early traction, and the first team. Kuda’s $10 million seed round showed how early capital can unlock continental expansion.
