Let me congratulate hometown boy Franklin Peters (FIMS) Odoemenam for raising a pre-seed fund for Boundlesspay. I gave him a very tough assignment a few months ago: an European startup wanted to buy his company and acqui-hire him in the process (they buy and will require him to work therein).
When I heard it, I told him NOT to go ahead with that sale. It was a very tough time for him but in the midst of that confusion, I challenged him to live above the easy path. I reminded him that he was just as best as any person and could build that future.
Today, he raised at multiples he could have sold and all smiles. I am very happy for a kid who was nicknamed “blockchain oracle” at UNN and today he will make blockchain better. I will continue to wish him good luck and more wins. Thank you Adaverse for believing in this Isuikwuato Abia State innovator; we salute and thank you for opening this big partnership with Franklin and BoundlessPay.
