Flutterwave

It’s been a superb experience so far in Startng and Flutterwave has done a super work in the program. Oh yeah! I learnt they are the sponsors of the program and I really want to express my gratitude to them for the great work they are doing. In regards to that, I did a background research on them and I am left in awesome. I learnt they are payment company and have a huge market in the country and Africa in general.

Flutterwave was founded in 2016 by Iyinoluwa Samuel Aboyej, a Nigerian entrepreneur who also co-founded Andela, What does it does exactly? Flutterwave provides seamless and secure payment solutions to banks, businesses and their customers. With our solutions, a merchant can accept local and international payments from card and bank accounts. Its technology also powers services like PiggybankNG, Thrivesed.com, Walletng, MAXGO and other platforms as well.

It got approval from the Central Bank of Nigeria for the use of the Unstructured Supplementary Service Data (USSD) technology for its product. The tech firm said the USSD is an addition to other payment channels it already offered and affirm the firm's commitment to staying true to its promise to provide modern payment infrastructure that would empower Africans.

They have significant impart in the tech industry here in Nigeria and are willing to do more. No wonder they have decided to play a part in this program. You can find out more about them at here.

Traveling! When i hear that word it gives me so much excitement. I love traveling so much, i'd love to explore new places, meet new people and get to know more cultures. OK hold on. The truth is i am not actually a traveler. Like in my entire life i have traveled to only a few places, school cause inclusive. I really have a dream of traveling the world as much as i can later in future. In fact i have a list of places that i mush travel to when i have the means.

Number one on my list is Rio de janeiro.

I've what watch movies about it and have read some posts and reviews about it especially the beautiful beaches their and the statue of Christ our redeemer. The nice food and fruits the got. Another on my list and probably second is Seychelles.

I've read somewhere that it is one of African richest countries, if not the richest and it has beautiful landmass and weather and nice beaches too. Others on my list include Spain, London, Paris, Rome, Silicon valley and others i hope to discover subsequently.

Aside traveling to explore new places and meeting new people, there are other reasons I'd love to travel to places. One of the major reasons is gaining experience. From the little places i have traveled I've learnt a lot about the way of life of those people, their interest, fascinating things about them.With that knowledge i get to chip into discussion regarding such places. In other words, it gives me more talking points and interaction when i meet people who have knowledge of those places as well.

Another reason is making new friends. You make new friends from the start of any journey to the end and back. This brings happiness and that is key in human life.
