The Real Truth About The Aso Villa Demo Day - A Finalist by tafrica(m): 9:54am On Sep 08, 2016 |
Could Aso Villa Demo Day be a PR stunt or what? I am one of the 30 finalists of the just concluded Aso Villa Demo Day and would love to share to the media our own view of how things truly paned out. First of all, it will be courteous to thank the organizers of the Aso Villa Demo Day. But truly, we ask, was it all worth it? Lots of cut back on promises and a focus on PR & photo ops at the expense of we, the young entrepreneurs. I am speaking out because most of us have businesses already at their growth phase. We left all behind hoping for more but it just didn’t seem to be worth it. https://www.techvoize.com/africa/real-truth-aso-villa-demo-day-5164 21 Likes 6 Shares

Wow! I knew this would happen, little wonder I was not motivated to enter for the so called competition. Anything the govt organizes flops because they never have it in mind to truly help but to use it as a publicity stunt. Sorry Bro, other doors will open for your business. 52 Likes |

So sad, a laudable program like this was made to be a mere PR stunt. This People aren't ready to govern but to politicize everything and make headlines out of it. Imagine we had to later invite Mark Zuckerberg who had earlier left Nigeria for this. We have clowns in Aso Rock. 41 Likes 2 Shares |

Too bad.... Not meaning to sound cocky, but we were all amazed when they said they were only going to pick 30...not the initial 50 "finalists" Thinking back, what was the Goal of the Programme? Quite a different story according to their "Criteria" which most Startups only knew about on the Pitch day,...( i will post the Picture here) It's So sad...i even spoke to my friend who made it to the Final 30,....but what i heard from him was embarrassing! Until when I saw the official APC twitter handle tweeting all about the ASO VILLA DEMO DAY....then I realized, it was just a publicity stunt... Maybe they will push it down our throats come 2019. 10 Likes 2 Shares

Do you get paid for a demo? Come on, you only went to showcase what you have. Go ask the artist on the street if they get hotel accommodation, feeding or transport back to their base because they where invited by Don Jazzy to show their demo. Guy if nothing, you met the president, Mark Zukerberg and took selfies with him. Lots of us only read about him on Nairaland. Guy its not everything you pin on the federal government, learn not to expect rewards. Kindly keep quiet and go back to your business, if its a good idea, you surely do not need government. Ask Dangote, or some of the most successful business men today. The government will look for you when you succeed 26 Likes

Anytime this government makes a promise, I read the opposite in meaning. We will create jobs- we will destroy jobs. We will reduce price of petrol- we will increase the price of petrol. We will boost the economy- we will damage the economy. 5 Likes 1 Share |

This is really disheartening.. Until a government takes it program serious from start to finish that's why it'll be taken seriously but as of now I've not seen anything I should hinge on to take this government serious.. Still watching and waiting 3 Likes 1 Share |

Gosh! So the FG ended up fucking everything up in the end. Not surprised. There were some really good ideas there but ofcourse our present FG is a clueless one, they have no inkling on technology and how it will be beneficial in the long run to our economy. Only their fake corruption fight that they keep making noise about. 8 Likes 1 Share |

Na so. Anything FG, I dnt waste my time. I remembered representing my University in the First Programming Contest way back then. Unfortunately for them Bells and American University team owned by Obasanjo and Atiku were sitted close to my team. They did not solve the problem at all but were announced as part of the top 5. Also Oga start up, everytin is not about money. You should have told us what u presented and let's see if it is worth it. At least your flight and accommodation was taken care of. 1 Like 1 Share |
