Activist raising 3 courageous Pan African girls to care & work for the dignity & prosperity of ALL Africans. Views shared here are mine NOT my employer.

Joined July 2010
2023 we focus squarely on mobilizing political will & investments for trusted & inclusive digital payments to ALL African entrepreneurs selling/wishing to sell goods/services across our one Africa market of 1.4 Billion. @asemota can we get interoperable merchant codes this year?.
When sisters-brothers who buy & sell goods/services along land borders find value in transacting digitally for their daily trading & financial lives, then digital financial inclusion & the promise of AfCFTA will have permeated our Africa. What an exciting business opportunity🙏🏾.

Once again,. EXPOSURE DOES NOT PAY BILLS or FEED! . Pay interns please!!. You don’t have to call it a salary, since it seems like a problem word!. Call it an “allowance” that covers transport, communication (aka airtime), data to work anywhere + a stipend coz they’ve got to eat!.

#Tigray💔💔. Beyond heartbreaking.
Tragic to see the active conflict in #Tigray, Ethiopia again, but in reality, the war never stopped. For over 21 months, 6 million people have been under siege. We call for the resumption of essential services and an end to the blockade. The only solution is peace.

#BlackLivesMatter . Ethiopia is home to the African Union and therefore Africa! We’ve said #Silencetheguns but they continue!. At what point do we say ENOUGH and urgently rescue our sisters and brothers of Tigray?.

Disturbing! Beyond disturbing seeing what's happening in #Tigray proven by science! . 💔💔💔💔. Africa saddens me most when we allow innocent people to perish at the hands of selfish people in power, devoid of Heart for their people!. What's happening in #Tigray is UNACCEPTABLE!.
New images taken from space at night starkly show how the conflict in Ethiopia's northern Tigray region has left a population facing one of the world's worst humanitarian crises. Cities are shown fading to black.

A question I grapple with nearly every day! . Sense of urgency is often frowned upon & those who call for it are “pushy!”. What will it take for all/at least majority of us, to have a sense of urgency to solve issues that further our integration and prosperity for ALL?!.
The lack of urgency in Africa is depressing. You cannot be the world's poorest continent and at the same time be the continent with the world's lowest rate of intra regional trade and the highest number of internal barriers to trade and travel. Why do Africans not get this?.
