Strong changes are disruptive. You cannot make a significant change by trying to be gentle. Locally and internationally accredited degrees are coming to @AltSchoolAfrica , and current and past students who have earned a diploma from us will be able to convert their diploma into a degree. In fact, if you have an ND or a previous degree, you can come and complete another degree with us within a short period of time. Learning will be driven by credits, in line with international standards, and not driven by time the way we used to know it. This is my contribution toward getting more people to learn and build on the continent. If there’s any way I can help you, let me know 🤝🤝🤝. Talk to me.

lol. Nigeria is really an interesting country, they’ll force startups to use local infrastructures but this same Nigeria will go and pay foreign companies to provide services to Nigerians when there are local businesses offering the same thing at same quality and lower cost. Your government will go to Pluralsight and Udacity to sign Edtech deals as if there are no Edtech operating in Nigeria. When it’s time for the government to spend money, they’ll spend it on flashy foreign companies without providing supports for local startups, but when it’s time for startups to spend money, they want them to only spend it locally. All is well

Has it ever occurred to you that people have both Igbo and Yoruba parents? And what do you mean by opportunities meant for Yoruba?

Sometimes, the Edtech deals are funded by foreign donors who require the foreign platforms. Not contradicting your post, just adding some nuance to it.

Like they force Nigerians to eat local rice full of sand whilst buying foreign rice for themselves.

literally unfairmoney

thats why we have Data centers in Tiers you can check more on its tiers online. but if you dont mind and are in lagos i can give you a tour to one Validated as Tier III to see what has been happening in the last 15 years. Maybe that could spark a little confidence that space.

Prove yourself and your platform first ,then complain if you don't get in .

"Opportunities" like say dem no work their ass off or pay school fees and dues. If we never gather hand burn all these bigots and bastards, the hidden ones go emerge

Really, I wasn’t counting but hey, seems like this is personal to you. Nigerian data centers, how secure can they be? Internet redundancy Actual physical location security Electricity availability and usage Data security and backups It’s a lot to think about

in the last 15 years till now we have had 22 data centers
