Uncle Teddy Osei was a visionary who founded Osibisa, bringing “the criss-cross rhythms that explode with happiness” to the world. Producing Osee Yee with him was an honor, and his wisdom shaped my journey. His legacy in music and culture will never be forgotten. Rest well✨

Governments in #Africa should through #policy enable #community #networks by guaranteed access to backhaul of underutilized dark fiber. The only way for sustainable data prices in Africa is when grassroots + underserved create and maintain their own #Internet connectivity.
Affordable data costs 📶 are a game-changer for economic growth across Africa 🌍, enabling innovation, entrepreneurship, and digital transformation 🚀. Some countries are leading the way with competitive data pricing 💸, but many still face high costs that limit opportunities. Bridging this gap is essential for unlocking the continent’s full potential! 💡💼
