I lost my job last year and I think I’m ready to talk about it.
Nigerian companies don’t hire data analysts because they’re not ready for what the data will find.
I know this because I was that data analyst.
The company folded.
They folded because they ignored my analysis.
I was their pricing analyst. I found out they were buying from suppliers at inflated prices. Built the report. Presented it. They nodded, said “very interesting” and kept doing the same thing.
I noticed some of them had new cars. Recent. Nice.
My supervisor told me “Oge some things here are above both of us.”
I documented everything after that.
Months later …gone. Just a message.
that Company is suspended.
The people who ran it have new jobs now, Same cars.
They’re still owing me my last salary.
But the company has folded so.
Hot take: half of African startup failures are just fraud that ran out of time.
