lol. This man should stop all these and just do these for the next 12 months.

One of the biggest benefits of innovation challenges like this goes far beyond the prize money or the opportunity to engage with @OPay_NG and its partners.
As a student, the experience, proof of work, and recognition you gain can become valuable additions to your portfolio and CV. Imagine being able to include a credential such as Winner of the @OPay_NG Γ @googleafrica National Innovation Challenge 2026. Achievements like that can open doors to internships, scholarships, career opportunities, and professional networks that extend far beyond the competition itself.
While the β¦18 million prize pool is certainly exciting, I encourage every applicant to look beyond the financial reward and consider the long-term impact this opportunity could have on their career journey.
To help participants submit stronger applications, hereβs a video with additional tips and guidance for the #NationalInnovationChallenge.
Day 4 of reminding Nigerians that application is still open for the #NationalInnovationChallenge, yes the β¦18 million student innovation challenge organized by @OPay_NG in partnership with @googleafrica.
Iβve shared information about the challenge before, but I believe this video does an excellent job of explaining the submission process and highlighting some important requirements.
One key point to note is that your Google Drive submission must be accessible to everyone with the link. If the judges are unable to access your files, your application may not be reviewed, regardless of the quality of your submission.
Applications close on Sunday, so there is still time to apply. Take a few minutes to review the guidelines carefully and ensure that all submission requirements have been met before submitting.

Based on the β¦18 million @OPay_NG Γ @googleafrica National Innovation Challenge I posted about, let me answer some of the questions here. And if you haven't applied yet, this thread is your final nudge.
1. The challenge is open to students from ANY tertiary institution in Nigeria. University, polytechnic, college of education. It doesn't matter where you are. Your school qualifies.
2. About the whole team thing, you have 3 days left. Talk to 4 people today, not tomorrow. Today. The best teams aren't always the ones who planned the longest. They're the ones who moved fastest.
3. Build your team: 2 developers, 1 designer, and 2 people with product thinking. That's the structure I'd go with.
4. On the idea part, you don't need a finished product. You need a compelling, clearly articulated solution to a real problem. Use AI tools to sharpen your concept into a clear PRD. That's your submission foundation.
The deadline is Sunday, June 14. The application takes minutes.
What takes time is getting your team aligned and your idea sharp. Do that today at: opayweb.com/innovation-challβ¦#NationalInnovationChallenge#OPayScholars2026#OPayxGoogle2026

When you are happy,
when you are sad,
when you are depressed,
when you are full of strength,
when you win,
when you lose,
when you find love,
when your heart breaks,
in lack,
and in abundance,
Talk to God first.
This is an interesting question.
Yes, we 100% refer students for jobs, and we also build a job readiness program into our curriculum. You just have to put in the work because youβre competing with other AltSchool students too.
But the diploma certificate is not just a piece of paper. Itβs an internationally recognised certificate, and right now, past AltSchool students with certificates can use them to continue toward a degree.
Just survived a 2βmonth Python dataset project
Massive, messy data β cleaned it β made new columns β visualized it β documented everything.
Lowkey proud of how much I leveled up. Thanks to my instructor at @AltSchoolAfrica for the chaos.
