Happy Democracy Day. 🇳🇬
Before you read this newsletter, the 2026 FIFA World Cup would have kicked off with Bafana Bafana facing El Tri. I have just one thing to say to you: African tech is sweet, but football, especially on the world’s biggest stage, is sweeter. During this period, make time to watch the beautiful game and bring along people who probably don’t care about football as much. And make them care.
It’s a shame that on Nigeria’s Democracy Day, I have to take a swipe at the country for not making consecutive appearances at the World Cup. Who knows? The Super Eagles could have been the underdog winners at this year’s event.
Let’s dive right in.
