In Todays episode, I interviewed a lady who is fixing Nigeria's waste problem by recycling abandoned car tires into everyday products. Free recycle was born out of a problem and in this video, she shared her journey and how tires are recycled

There should probably be some knowledge to the workers as well. If I'm correct allot of people in Nigeria are poor and will just take about any job and most often I'd imagined they don't get informed about dangerous health hazards , because they are not gonna ask themselves. They are just happy they can feed their families now.

Leave Government out of this. Government doesn't develop a nation, people get the job done. She should allow people to buy shares in her company through brokers such as; TROVE, BAMBOO, CHAKA AND RISE. This will give the company more capital enough to be able to set up other branches at some other parts of the Country which would simply expand her business, make it grow faster and become popular.

Amazing. Hopes she get more cheap funding to expand to many other African Countries. Imagine her company doing this in Kenya, Ivory Coast, South Africa, Ethiopia, DRC Congo etc?. It's possible lets support African entrepreneurs. Hope she sets up a research unit that can keep on refining her products and manufacturing processes, and also get more land to make her factory bigger in order for her to make many more product types. Wonderful work African sister.

This was very insightful. What I found particularly interesting was when you asked her about the challenges she faces as a business owner and power was top of the list. Running a factory with a diesel generator 80% of the time is a very fast way to kill a business. MSMEs remain the lifeblood of our nation and fixing the infrastructure problem should be the priority of the government. Hopefully the reforms on power enabling sub-nationals to make investments in collaboration with the private sector begins to provide tailwinds to businesses like hers in the medium term. I will visit her factory someday. She is a true patriot and wealth creator. Kudos to you for bringing the story of these entrepreneurs to our screens!

Already can't imagine doing this normally , but in a country with a lack of allot of basics of life and there you go put up a multi-million dollar business and fixing a mayor problem in your country that is an environmental hazard and eye-sore at the same time. Please keep doing what you do , the world needs more innovation like this !
