@sinzubaba @OlajideJubril_ Technically we can verify individual addresses anywhere for anyone. In NG, the biggest market need is fintechs, hence our focus. But we'd support any initiatives to create better addressing solutions for all Nigerians. 😁

@OlajideJubril_ @letsokhi okhi is doing financial address verification but the main drivers need to be NIPOST for more broader data sets n even utility companies

Address verification systems need to be done . In more advance economies they don’t joke with post codes and address as it ties to identities it’s why we need to have a Country wide address mapping championed by both private and public institutions ( looking at you NIPOST)

Glad we got @rogernort from @letsokhi to the pod. We broke down what it takes to build an MVP from scratch, what features we should prioritize in an MVP, how to iterate faster, how to build context within teams and so much more. open.spotify.com/episode/2Ebvvv…

@TraderJayye @mikjos_ @EduWaltzChuka @Dehkunle @OPay_NG @joinkuda 💯 agree. That’s why we take data privacy incredibly seriously and hold ourselves to international standards. We limit personal data and anonymize location data. We also use geofences that only collect data around your house when we’re verifying you.

OPay @OPay_NG suddenly froze my account with 3 million naira in it and now asking me to provide a picture of my house before they unlock my account ,I don’t know where this is done ,maybe they want to start kidnapping customers kindly help me ask them

0.5% of Nigerians have insurance. Smart addressing could unlock the hidden potential of the insurance industry: guardian.ng/opinion/unlock… #smartaddress #insurance #letsokhi

Happy #InternationalWomensDay – Imagine a gender equal world. A world free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination. A world that's diverse, equitable, and inclusive. At OkHi we celebrate our amazing women team members and diversity #BreakTheBias #beincluded

@mberg hey @mberg, this is certainly at times a polarising subject and definitely a space for innovation. What do you think is your number one reason? Can you see any benefit?

I love @letsokhi but I think the idea of requiring linking one's address to your social media profile is a terrible idea for so many reasons

Trust is the most critical component of lending. Traditionally: verification was in person and based on collateral, now it is digital and often unsecured #trust #fintech #kyc #smartaddressing

Trolls thrive in a world of online anonymity. This policy could make it a lot harder for them to roam freely. f-st.co/LSgCqFn

This policy could fix social media. Why isn’t anyone following it? @letsokhi CEO Timbo Drayson writes for @FastCompany on the opportunity to make social media safer with #KYC and how Smart Addressing can play a part. fastcompany.com/90726617/know-… #smartaddressing

@Burrukus @WorldMobileTeam @MrTelecoms We'd love to chat

@WorldMobileTeam x @letsokhi - you guys should have a chat? @MrTelecoms? #ckclub

@Burrukus @WorldMobileTeam @MrTelecoms sounds great!

@afolabi___ Juliet has been with OkHi for 5 years : )

How do you feel about services having your address data? Your data should be... yours. OkHi builds transparency and gives you back control over who can see and use your address data. #dataprivacy

Celebrating the fantastic Juliet on her 5 year anniversary with OkHi. Her boundless tenacity has led to a huge contribution towards making OkHi the best company in Africa to work for. Thanks Jules! #culture #team #thebig5 #letsokhi

Bad addresses are expensive for businesses that deliver, and stressful for customers. #SmartAddressing can save the day. #BeIncluded

"We can give you the transparency of who you’re sharing your address with, and the control to turn it on or off...to ensure your data is private and secure to you.” With @TecheconomyNG among other things, we discuss the importance of data privacy for us: ow.ly/PxUg50Hcn7E
