Looking back at the remarkable journey that BudPay has undertaken over the last two years since its inception, I am filled with immense pride. Our growth from stealth mode to being a prominent player in the payments sector in Nigeria has been nothing short of transformative.

It’s been a fulfilling adventure working alongside some of the best talents in Africa. I am incredibly proud to co-lead a team that embodies the ethos of customer-centricity, breaking barriers, and enabling businesses and individuals to live a borderless life. This concept is encapsulated in our ethos of being "Bud’erless."

My job at BudPay is simple, to ensure we do what needs to be done, excellently. As a seasoned practitioner in Nigeria's payments and financial services sector, I have nearly “seen it all” and I can say that what we have at BudPay is impressive and priceless.
