From this conversation, the reality of scaling does not seem to align with the expected goals and opportunities mentioned Look forward to the full conversation.

Yeah, I'd say that one takeaway is that Nigeria's open banking/open finance ecosystem didn't quite evolve the way Okra and its investors thought it might

Outta curiosity, did she address the funds parts, all the money they raised and where it went?

THE DAY I GAVE A LIFT TO GHOSTS OR WERE THEY ANGELS ? I was travelling to Zimbabwe from Lobatse, Botswana, my first contract had lapsed. When I reached the Zimbabwe border, they wanted to make me pay duty for my Botswana registered car, so I decided to return to Francistown where I met the chief Immigration officer and he agreed to give me a temporary permit that would allow me to re-enter Zimbabwe as a visitor. By the time I reached Bulawayo, it was already dark but I was determined to reach Chivi that night so I hit the road towards Gweru. As I entered Shurugwi, I missed a turn and continued towards some houses. I saw a lady wearing a long overcoat. I stopped and asked her the directions to road that would take me through Boterekwa. She told me that she was a policewoman and she was on her way to Boterekwa as she had received a message that there had been an accident there. She asked me to pass through the police station as she was supposed to pick another policelady to accompany her to the scene. I didn't really care as I was so tired after driving close to 1000 km. She went in and came out with another lady who sat at the back. As we drove towards Boterekwa, the lady said "When we get back to the Police camp there will be a robbery case!" I asked her why, then she said before she met me, she had met another lady who was being followed by a know robber in the area. I asked her why she did not stop the robber but she said she was rushing to attend to the accident. All the while I never looked at her, my mind was just mechanical due to fatigue. She asked if I had ever driven through Boterekwa. I said no. Then she started giving me instructions on how to drive through it. "Just down there is the most dangerous, slow down to 20km/hr. Keep well left." This was around 12 midnight. In the midst of the darkness, she asked me to stop. "This is the scene of the accident, you can drop us here!" I could not see any car nor people. It was just darkness. I remember asking here if they had any guns. How could 2 women disembark in such a dark and scary place like Boterekwa in the midst of the night? She said she would be fine. She proceeded to give me further directions to turn left at the junction to Zvishavane. I hit the road and arrived around 3am. It was only after I was in bed that I started to think deeply about what had happened. The following day I called Shurugwi police station and asked if there had been an accident in Boterekwa, the previous night. Nop! I enquired of the robbery case and they said YES. The policeman on the other end asked me why I was asking those questions and I told him the story. I still wonder if those ladies were ghosts or angels!
