Every project begins with a great idea. 💡
The idea for 'Namwayut' began with a friendship between @missprill and @BramwellTovey who had worked together previously on Tovey's Ancestral Voices for the @VSOrchestra .

OPay should be renamed OperaLabs.
They are doing amazing consumer internet experiments on Nigerian streets at the moment. I think this lack of fear to experiment is what the local ecosystem needs.
Anyone else with $50m to test things? You can form a consortium.
