Au gouvernement de @PR_Diomaye et la direction intérieur de @m_matarcisse C’est indigne d’arrêter des étrangers et de les déférer devant le parquet du simple fait qu’il est en manque de papier C’est indigne d’un gouvernement dit panafricain Régulariser n’est pas criminaliser

🔴🇫🇷 𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗦𝗛 𝗜𝗡𝗙𝗢 — Les présidents de l’Assemblée nationale, Yaël Braun-Pivet, et du Sénat, Gérard Larcher, REFUSENT de divulguer les notes de frais des députés et des sénateurs. L’Assemblée nationale invoque le secret professionnel du déontologue. Le Sénat, lui, se retranche derrière la confidentialité prévue par son règlement intérieur. (Source : @TransparenceCit)

That Dangote grant shows that he has too many “low-quality” people around him. You want to do something good, and it somehow ends up being less than the barest minimum. It shows that it wasn't his idea, and he couldn't really be bothered. He tasked others who are also less bothered and have minimal interaction with the innovation ecosystem. The cycle of “anyhowness” continues. They are richer by the day and are worshipped by most, so who cares?? Aliko’s relationship with Bill Gates and the lack of impact it has had on local innovation remain the greatest mysteries. Pierre Omidyar’s philanthropy, combined with targeted interventions by Google, laid the foundation for the software talent stack we have in Africa today. Nothing else sensible was added to it by our wealthy beyond performative acts of charity. One program that also bothers me is Tony Elumelu’s entrepreneurship initiative. TEP. It is underperforming. A lot of announcements and money have been spent, but there has not been enough impact. I don't think it has been properly run, and it is not his fault. Like Dangote, he has people around him who also do the barest minimum but make the most announcements. Heirs is a phenomenal institution that I would like to see receive more focus, and they should play a more active role in ecosystem building than Oga Tony’s personal philanthropic activities. Maybe it is all our fault. We have not presented these men with viable ideas for how to do this or with the structure to implement them. I learned a lot from Edo Innovates about how good intentions can amount to little if you wait for money to come before taking action. Structure first, support next. Both are active, not passive, processes. Jim Ovia and Moniepoint are excellent examples of how to do it. There are many other startups he has supported quietly that are doing great. It is still not enough. Dangote, Elumelu, Jim Ovia, and others can invest in initiatives that can be white-labeled for their brands and are also very effective. I have seen that with Village Capital’s partnerships and not much else in Africa. We need to do better than criticize them. We can also help them to help us.

Excerpt from my latest article: ''Lebanese business families did not wait for perfect governance before building. They often built in countries where formal institutions were weak, uncertain or uneven. Their advantage was not that the state worked perfectly. Their advantage was that the network worked. Lebanon itself is not an example of strong state capacity. It has lived through civil war, political fragmentation, weak public institutions, financial crisis and mass emigration. Yet Lebanese communities have built unusually strong commercial networks across Africa, Latin America, the Gulf, Europe and North America. That alone should make us question the idea that good state institutions must always come before capitalist behaviour. That network performs many of the functions we normally expect from formal institutions. It provides information. It reduces risk. It lowers the cost of trust. It enforces behaviour. It moves capital. It opens markets. It trains people. It punishes reputational damage. In a weak institutional environment, this matters enormously. This is why Lebanese business families have often been able to build in the same African environments where local capital complains, waits or retreats. They may face the same poor roads, weak courts, currency risk, port delays and political uncertainty. But their private institutions reduce some of the friction. Family trust can move money faster than a bank'' Read it here: medium.com/p/884c10bf3a65

Kylian Mbappé: “Sports betting is destructive. It has ruined the lives of some people I know. That's why I refused to appear in sports betting advertisements. Many of us come from the suburbs, and it destroys the lives of countless people there.”
