Moriah Adika wanted affordable clothes for university. What he found was a fragmented market where shoppers had to search through thrift stalls, open-air markets, and scattered social media vendors.
So, the geophysics student taught himself to code and built Cedisaver, an online marketplace bringing affordable fashion from different vendors onto one platform.

Agreed. The opportunity set across the continent is much wider than any single category, and the builders who do well will be the ones who look into the future and solve problems that still lack a serious solution.
That’s why we put these together: a look at companies that don’t exist yet, and the gaps they could fill.
If you’re deciding what to build next, it’s a useful starting point:

Ever wondered how Truecaller knows your name even if you've never used the app? 📲
Following a Lagos High Court ruling, @Truecaller now allows any Nigerian user to remove their phone number from their searchable database—even if you’ve never signed up.
While the court ultimately dismissed the case due to a lack of evidence, the applicants plan to appeal. If you want your number off the platform, you can now remove it directly via their unlisting portal
