Why Nigerian problems deserve Nigerian technology

A lot of the tools I used while learning were built for contexts very different from Lagos — different infrastructure, different assumptions.

AgriLink taught me that the best solution to a local problem rarely starts as a straight copy of something built elsewhere.

It starts with understanding the actual constraints — connectivity, cost, language, trust — and designing around them.

I want more of my career to be spent building things that start from here, not things adapted from somewhere else.
