    I saw this online a couple of days ago and I concluded it was one of those Chinese inventions. But to find it's a Nigerian coder is absolutely surprising. Nigeria and Africa it seems is beginning to exert major influence in the world technology scene. This is a very laudable achievement if it can be developed on and made available commercially, it would be awesome. A made in Africa tech selling to the world. That sounds like something I must heard said about the mythical nation of Wakanda in the Avenger movies.

    After reading this article, two things have become more than obvious to me. First, coding is soon to be a really common language even in Africa. Second, Africa can have a substantial share in AI as far as they are ready to do the work. Earlier today, I read the post By the Zimbabwean business Chief, Strive Masiyiwa, where he mentioned coding as a skill for the future, and as usual, he wasn't wrong. I feel really proud that news like this can now come out of Nigeria and African as whole. I also feel a sense of relief from knowing the fact that when the time fully hits, Nigerian will not be left behind
