Entrepreneurship in Africa, building from the ground up – With Chidi Nwaogu
from Dear Young Afrikan · host Nana Fredua Agyeman
You might have heard the popular saying “Naija people no dey carry last”. This week I am speaking to one of such young Nigerians. Chidi Nwaogu is a serial tech entrepreneur, ecosystem builder, and software developer. He has a reputation for building businesses and selling them at some point. He started learning to code at age 13 and by 16, he had created 9ja Boi Interactive, a video game development company. We talk about his purpose, why and how he builds businesses so fast, how he and his twin brother went from being atheists to Christians and why he believes God is a major part of his success. Chidi is very passionate about seeing more Africans win. In his own words, he says “I could be a success story right? But that is not enough. We need a million and one success stories from Africa”. If you have an idea you want to transform into a business or if you are in the process of building something, this is an episode not to miss. Chidi gives us a crash course on how he moves from having ideas in his mind to building a profitable venture.
