The Co-Creation Hub (CCHUB) is a company with aims to capture
the attention of Nigerian youths through social media. Unfortunately, the
country has seen a decline in the status of the post-secondary education in the
country and this company hopes to boost the status by releasing a new
application called EIFKO, which is a mobile application which generates quizzes

ReplyDeleteThis post is informative, kevin. I read from this article(http://vc4africa.biz/blog/2012/02/14/cchub-nigeria-aims-to-support-30-social-tech-startups-in-the-next-two-years/) that the innovation from CCHUB is, however, not directed toward improving education alone. According to Bosun Tijani- the CEO of CCHUB company in Nigeria, the focus of the company is to support agriculture, technology, security, and health care. I feel these issues are not only affecting Nigerians or West African nations alone, it is a global issue that CCHUB company is addressing. That is why for example, there is CCHUB Canada which stresses on security and provision of alarm monitoring access control system. Having spent more than 18 years in Nigeria, I feel it is part of globalization for Nigerians to share with other developing and developed countries what CCHUB company is introducing to the international society as a whole rather than thinking of it as a privilege.
