How does one find balance with building in the Nigerian tech ecosystem? Seems like if you build in silence, youre rarely top of mind for anyone. When you announce your round, share your progress consistently - you appear successful but then accused of "making noise on socials"

I can’t overstate the importance of getting regular health checks. My little cousin just passed from stage 4 cancer. It wasn’t detected on time. 3 weeks ago, my grand aunt passed due to complications of Diabetes. When I’m asked “why healthcare?” This is why.
