Checkoja is a reliable platform to check the current prices of goods in local markets across Africa. Powered by remote data routing and real-time data analytics. The goal is to create the heartbeat of the African e-commerce ecosystem that allows people to track prices at their convenience while also providing a databank for old prices and connecting millions of local markets to the internet. As a son of a farmer who has viewed this ecosystem for decades, the economic analysis of the market can be checked in terms of prices and the tech must be deployed locally. As a Yoruba boy, I call this innovation check oja which means, view market. It is debatable that price availability might not be novel enough as Jumia and other e-commerce platforms have done so for accessories especially in Nigeria. The lacuna lies in foodstuffs and local farmers who belong to the poor class of which uniquely using data analytics and AI will transform their lives. This beckons for a layer of local penetration ...

Unbanked

Unbanked is an ai powered credit scorimg software. I am developing a universal credit scoring system using reinforcement learning and machine learning. With this credit score, money can be borrowed with guatantee of repayment.. Hala funding still needs guarantee that the cost price will be refunded. We used NIN x BVN x Phone No - in creating a unbanked account. Base on algorithm, we score each accounts from 0 to 1000. 0 - 200 - auzla 201 - 400 - alpha 401 - 600 - baller 601 - 800 - oganla 801 - 1000 - odoogwu

Review of 2024

Building AI solutions for Africa requires more than just technical expertise - it demands persistence, vision, and a deep understanding of local challenges. 2024 proved that combining technical innovation with practical solutions can drive real change in African markets. As we advanced our work on identity verification systems, each challenge reinforced why local context matters in AI development. Key milestones that shaped our impact: • Won 2024 MBB Grant Award (2x winner) for Ojumi platform • Promoted to Head of AI at Gamol Studio • Began MSc in Electrical/Electronics Engineering at University of Lagos • Led development of AI-powered identity verification solutions Most impactful developments: "Ojumi AI-Powered Identity Verification" Designed to address fragmented identity systems and expand financial inclusion across Africa https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:7276479942123540480/ "Advancing AI Research in African Markets" How local context shapes...

CrealityXR

Crealityxr is an ai powered XR technology aimed at resolving bank complains through automating customer service interactions with AR and AI. This idea came from the ARVR hackerton organised by meta, arvrafrica and imisi3D in Lagos Nigeria from Dec2 to Dec 4 of 2022. Our team didn't win but we are glad for the opportunity to show what we can build with XR tech in a short timed hacker-ton.

Research 2025

Everything on my plate is machine learning research. To march means to move so I will be moving with wisdom into the realm of research for coming months. I hope to convert some of my works into publications and have fun in the process. I revisited my statement of purpose and also conceptualised some research proposals for my postgraduate work. I also learnt how to use latex and how to draft research proposals. The goal is to rekindle my dream to become a world class researcher.
