am sorry only Abuja survey would do for now..

the Ibo lady you posted on the link is just another lady trying to please her current boyfriend and brothers

Dujardin:
OP stop misinforming the public, you first need to lookup the meaning of "Financial technology". Majority of these hardworking women cannot be directly classified as part of the fintech space.

Then the fact that you removed Khadijah Abu the Head of product partnership at Paystack makes it even looks more awkward.

Kubernetes:


From the Subject,I was expecting to see the women leading top fintechs in Nigeria like interswitch, remitter,quick teller etc.But the moment I saw women like Aisha of cbn and other women in other non fintechs orgs,I was like wtf.
I was also surprised to see
Migo, a machine learning-powered digital credit platform.So we do have machine learning coy in naija? That's kinda great

NB: This thread is created to motivate my babygirl and every young female in Fintech struggling to find their feet in the industry, i know you are a guest reader on this platform and you are likely going to see this when it hits the FP, i believe in your dream, i know one day you are going to climb the echelon of FINTECH. Keep on moving love, your best is yet to come

jaephoenix:
Op, obviously you have no idea what Fintech means. Google is your pal. Stop misinforming people. An example of a fintech industry is cryptocurrency

jaephoenix:

None of the women listed there is in Fintech. They are either in Tech or just Finances. Op na olodo

StarUp:
If you read every profile up there, my prayer for you is that God will give you a job in year 2020.

IgboSomalia:


Fintech is an industry, Blockchain is a subset. A subset of Blockchain technology is Cryptocurrency.

What Yoruba women understood 50 years ago, you can't understand it 100 years to come.

AmuDimpka:

What is saw wasn't FinTech and also FinTech isn't an industry it is a subset of ICT ecosystem...blockchain technology isn't all about crypto bro

Talk what you know ....what the OP listed are financial sector players (not even all ) because what the fúck is NIMC doing here ...not even FinTech apart from digital jewel lady

danilmo:


if these are the ones championing Feminism, we would av given it a second view/taught.

alas, na Instagram photo shooters that can't feed themselves com dey shout feminism ..

u won't see them here. demn full romance section.

1Sharon:
Yorubaaa

Noneroone:
These yoruba clowns can go any extent to make themselves happy. the halfwitted op knows that no specific category among finance, ICT and tech will have afonja women dominate. so he had to list all yoruba women he knows in the corporate world and branded it leading women in "fintech". smh

flexyrule:
It's one thing to be ignorant, it's also another to be stewpid. But it's a totally different thing to be ignorant and stupid at the same time. Majority of the loud-mouthed fellows on this thread belong to the last category.
So because one woman heads a scrappy department in CBN (a job that was probably gotten through recommendation and long legs) that makes the person a champion in FINTECH. 99% of tech inclined jobs in the Central Bank are carried out by contractors/consultants. Nigerian Youths are really stewpid and Tribalism ain't helping them at all.

Anambralstson:
Useless Lagos/Ibadan media have started their rubbish rating

IgboSomalia:




First of all, I want to thank you both for not crying marginalisation, hatred, jealousy or wickedness. This is a rare trait in our muddy Somalians.

Your complaints have been noted. We would tell the appropriate quarters to create a list of the most renowned Okrika sellers, Garden egg hawkers, peppersoup hawkers and beer parlour operators. I assure you, that list would feature your women.

SoNature:


Calm down...As an Igbo guy, I live in Lagos

The fact is that the Yorubas dominate the tech industry in Nigeria

Lagos is the most powerful state in Nigeria

Most of the smartest Nigerians live here

If the Igbos hadn't come to Lagos in our droves to compete for opportunities, the Yorubas will be running everything in the corporate world. Hausa/Fulani cannot stand them in a competitive environment.

Even at that, the Yorubas still lead the tech industry

Nigeria must continue to encourage positive competition... that's how a country grows

Bravo to them!

Anambralstson:

We dey Yuletide season now, I'm fully engage with activities and merriments, not time to waste see you guys soon.
I'm giving you time to Google
Uchenna Onwuamaegbu-Ugwu the CEO of Edufun Technik STEM, His girls won gold at World Technovation Challenge in US. represented Nigeria and Africa at the World Technovation Challenge in the Silicon Valley in San Francisco.
No time to Yoruba audio rating now.

Hello Bush baby,
First of all I don't engage in tribal banter. Secondly, I am proudly Niger Deltan.
Lastly, take your demented way of resoning and GTFO of my mention!
