Yammie is being developed from yam flour and egg flour, compressed and formed into convenient cubes that can be cooked quickly and served with a flavour-packed seasoning mix.

Instead of peeling, cutting and boiling yam from scratch, the consumer opens a packet, cooks the cubes and adds the accompanying flavour mix.

Think of it as taking something deeply Nigerian and giving it the convenience of modern instant food.

WE ALREADY HAVE A HEAD START

This is not a proposal to start by constructing an entirely new factory.

We already have access to a noodles manufacturing facility, which we intend to repurpose/adapt for Yammie production.

That potentially gives us a significant advantage in terms of infrastructure, production space and manufacturing know-how.

The proposed funding would therefore be directed towards adapting the facility and building the Yammie product properly:

Production-line modification and specialised equipment

Product formulation and food-science development

Testing and quality control

Packaging machinery and packaging development

Regulatory approvals and certification

Raw-material procurement

Initial commercial production

Distribution and market entry

Branding and marketing

Working capital

THE FIRST FLAVOURS

We are already exploring flavours designed around familiar Nigerian tastes:

SPICY CATFISH FLAVOUR

PARSLEY BEEF FLAVOUR

CURRY PRAWN FLAVOUR

The accompanying seasoning concept is also deliberately different.

A small 3-in-1 sachet can contain:

A protein-and-vegetable seasoning mix

A spicy red/palm-oil-based flavour component

A pulverised green-herb/vegetable mix

The objective is simple:

Make the finished plate taste like something Nigerians actually want to eat—not merely something that is convenient.

OUR PROPOSED FUNDING TARGET

US$250,000

We are proposing to raise US$250,000 to take Yammie from product development and factory adaptation into initial commercial production and market entry.

In return, the proposed investment structure is:

25% EQUITY

Investors/qualified contributors who collectively provide the full funding would receive 25% equity in the Yammie venture, subject to final legal, valuation and regulatory structuring.

The founders would retain the remaining 75%.

This is not simply a request for money.

We want people who believe that an ordinary Nigerian staple can be transformed into a commercially exciting food product.

BUT WE WANT YOUR OPINION FIRST

This is particularly directed at Nigeria's food creators, chefs, food bloggers and food influencers.

Before we put serious money behind Yammie, we want you to tell us what you think.

Would you buy it?

Would your audience buy it?

Would Nigerians prefer:

Yam cubes?

Plantain cubes?

Cassava cubes?

Sweet-potato cubes?

Cocoyam products?

A new form of another Nigerian staple?

What Nigerian crop do you think we have a comparative advantage in that the world has not yet properly packaged?

Perhaps you have an even better idea.

Tell us.

We are not so attached to Yammie that we cannot change it.

If you believe another Nigerian staple has a bigger opportunity, we want to hear that too.

AND IF YOU BELIEVE IN YAMMIE...

There is another question.

Would you personally put money into this idea?

We are looking for food professionals, creators, entrepreneurs and investors who may want to become more than spectators.

If Yammie proves itself through market validation, we want to explore taking the next step toward a properly structured investment raise.

The proposed opportunity is US$250,000 for 25% equity, subject to due diligence, valuation, definitive agreements and the applicable Nigerian regulatory framework.

WHY WE ARE PUTTING THIS ON JEEKOTA

Jeekota was built around a simple idea:

Ideas should be tested before people spend years and fortunes building them.

So we want Yammie to face the public before we make the big investment.

Let consumers, food creators and potential investors tell us:

Is this a great idea?

Is the flavour right?

Is the price right?

Would you buy it?

Would you invest in it?

Or should we be making something completely different from another Nigerian staple?

That is the beauty of Mock-Crowdfunding.

VALIDATE >>> PITCH

We are putting the idea in front of the crowd first.

If the crowd responds strongly, we can take that evidence to the appropriate investors, partners and regulated crowdfunding channels.

TO NIGERIAN FOOD CREATORS

We especially want you involved.

Don't just like the post.

Challenge the idea.

Tell us what is wrong with it.

Tell us what would make you buy it.

Tell us which flavour you would launch first.

Tell us what Nigerian staple you believe deserves this treatment.

And if, after seeing the idea, you think:

"I would actually invest in this."

Tell us that too.

Because perhaps the next great Nigerian packaged-food brand is sitting inside something we have been eating for generations.

YAMMIE INSTANT CUBES

From a Nigerian staple to a modern convenience food.

LEGACYKEY

LEGACYKEY — FOUNDER IDEA

Imagine a private digital sanctuary where you keep the things that matter most to you—and the things your family may desperately need if you are suddenly no longer around.

Land documents, Property records, Insurance documents, Business records, Important family information, Contracts, Photographs, Wills and other important documents.

LEGACYKEY gives you two simple ways to access your sanctuary.

1. YOUR 6-DIGIT PASSWORD

Enter your six-digit password and access your LEGACYKEY account.

2. YOUR 10 PERSONAL QUESTIONS

When creating your account, you choose 10 questions whose answers are known only to you and people very close to you.

For example:

• What was my mother's maiden name?

• What colour was my father's first car?

• What is the name of my mother's immediate younger brother's first son?

• What was the first street we lived on when I was born?

• Which secondary school did my younger sister attend?

You don't need to answer all 10 to gain access.

LEGACYKEY randomly selects 5 of your 10 questions.

Answer the five correctly and you're in.

This becomes your recovery key when you don't have your six-digit password.

THE LEGACY FEATURE

This is where LEGACYKEY becomes different.

You decide how long you want to go without checking in:

1 MONTH, 3 MONTHS, 6 MONTHS, 12 MONTHS

If that period passes without you checking in, LEGACYKEY automatically begins contacting your nominated next of kin.

FIRST NEXT OF KIN

An automated email is sent to your first next of kin.

After repeated notifications and the appropriate waiting period, the system sends the 10 questions you personally selected.

If your first next of kin can correctly answer 5 randomly selected questions, they can gain access according to the instructions you established.

If the first next of kin does not complete the process after the designated period, LEGACYKEY automatically moves to your:

SECOND NEXT OF KIN

The same process begins.

The questions are personal to you.

Your wife may know your mother's maiden name.

Your brother may know the street where you were born.

A close relative may know your father's first car.

If the person nominated as next of kin does not know one or two answers, someone close to the family may be able to help.

THE SIMPLE IDEA

WHILE YOU ARE ACTIVE:

6-DIGIT PASSWORD → ACCESS

5 OF 10 PERSONAL QUESTIONS → RECOVERY ACCESS

IF YOU STOP CHECKING IN:

YOU → FIRST NEXT OF KIN → SECOND NEXT OF KIN

The notification and question-delivery process is automated.

THE BIGGER IDEA

People can die suddenly.

They can leave behind property, documents, businesses, investments, family information and important records that nobody knows exist—or nobody knows where to find.

LEGACYKEY gives you the opportunity to say:

“If something happens to me, I don't want the important things I leave behind to disappear with me.”

It is not merely cloud storage.

It is a personal digital sanctuary designed to preserve what matters and make it findable by the people you trust when you are no longer able to do so yourself.

THE VISION

While you are alive, you control your information.

You decide what to store.

You decide who your next of kin are.

You decide how long you want to go without checking in.

And you decide what happens if you can no longer check in.

LEGACYKEY

Your life. Your information. Your legacy.

SECURE IT. PRESERVE IT. PASS IT ON.

Founder Idea: ADMAP

FIND THE SCREEN. BOOK THE SPACE.

"What if every digital billboard in the world could be found and booked from one app?"

Today, digital billboard space is scattered across thousands of locations, operators and booking processes.

ADMAP wants to put that inventory on one map.

An advertiser opens ADMAP.

Chooses a city or location.

Sees available digital billboards, their specifications, audience information, pricing and when occupied screens become available.

Designs an advert to the required specification.

Chooses the duration — minutes, hours, days or longer.

Pays digitally.

And the advert is scheduled for the selected screen.

A business in Abuja could book a screen in Lagos.

A Kenyan brand could book screens in London.

A company in Nairobi could launch a campaign across several cities without physically travelling to any of them.

For billboard owners, ADMAP turns unused or available screen time into bookable digital inventory while providing tools to manage schedules, bookings and revenue.

But ADMAP is not an anything-goes advertising platform.

Every advert would pass through automated and human content moderation and comply with the advertising laws and regulations of its location.

Billboard owners would also retain control over the categories of advertising they permit on their screens.

THE VISION:

Turn the world's digital billboards into a searchable, bookable global advertising network.

MOCK-CROWDFUNDING TARGET: US$100,000

The proposed funding would be used to validate the concept, develop the initial platform, onboard billboard owners and advertisers, establish the technology for screen scheduling and proof-of-play, and pilot ADMAP in selected locations.

WE ARE NOT RAISING MONEY YET.

WE ARE VALIDATING THE IDEA BEFORE BUILDING IT.

Would you invest in a startup attempting to make physical advertising space as accessible as digital advertising space?

Startup Idea: InHood (Patronise each-other; Grow together)

What if your neighbourhood could become its own economy?

InHood is a community economic platform built on a simple idea:

What if the people who live around you became your first investors, your first customers and your first market?

Imagine a defined community—not an entire city, but a precinct, neighbourhood, ward or small local area.

It could be Awada in Onitsha, Anambra State; Demsawo in Yola, Adamawa State; or Mokola in Ibadan, Oyo State.

People living within that community voluntarily join InHood, contribute regularly to a community productive fund, and agree to deliberately patronise products and services created by members.

The objective is simple:

KEEP MORE ECONOMIC ACTIVITY CIRCULATING WITHIN THE COMMUNITY.

Imagine what could happen.

A woman in the community learns how to make spaghetti from flour and eggs. She buys a small pasta machine capable of producing several kilograms a day.

She posts on InHood:

“Fresh locally made spaghetti available.”

Her neighbours become her first customers.

Another member produces seasoning cubes.

Members buy from him.

A farmer harvests one tonne of cassava and announces:

“Cassava available. I’m processing into garri. Taking orders.”

People in the community place orders before the processing is completed.

Another member buys a dehydrating machine.

Instead of allowing it to sit idle, he offers dehydration and pulverisation services to members with excess vegetables, fruits, herbs and other suitable produce.

Someone buys a milling machine.

Someone starts a small bakery.

Someone produces liquid soap.

Someone supplies eggs.

Someone offers cold storage.

Someone provides welding and fabrication.

Someone runs a local delivery service.

Someone produces furniture.

Someone processes agricultural products.

One member’s business becomes another member’s customer.

And the cycle continues.

THE COMMUNITY FUND

This is where InHood becomes particularly interesting.

The community fund is not simply money sitting in an account.

Its primary purpose is to finance productive assets for members.

A member may say:

“I have identified demand for this product within InHood. I need ₦X to acquire the machine that will allow me to produce it.”

If approved, the community fund provides a structured loan for the productive asset.

The asset itself provides tangible security for the financing, subject to proper documentation, valuation, insurance and appropriate risk controls.

The member uses the machine to produce goods or services.

Revenue is generated.

The loan is repaid.

The machine continues producing.

And the community now has productive capacity that did not exist before.

The philosophy is simple:

DON’T JUST LEND PEOPLE MONEY TO SPEND.

HELP THEM ACQUIRE SOMETHING THAT CAN PRODUCE.

THE INHOOD ECONOMIC FLYWHEEL

Community contributions

↓

Productive-asset financing

↓

Member businesses

↓

Products & services

↓

Community members become customers

↓

Revenue

↓

Loan repayment

↓

More productive assets

↓

More businesses

↓

A stronger local economy

That is the InHood flywheel.

WHAT MAKES INHOOD DIFFERENT?

Most community groups are built around conversation.

Most marketplaces are built around buying and selling.

Most lending platforms are built around borrowers.

INHOOD CONNECTS ALL THREE.

It combines:

• Community membership

• Community savings/productive fund

• Productive-asset financing

• Local marketplace

• Member-to-member patronage

• Business discovery

• Pre-orders

• Equipment/service sharing

• Local delivery

• Business performance tracking

• Reputation and member ratings

• Digital financial records and transparency

Members should not be forced to buy from one another.

The strength of InHood should come from deliberately choosing to patronise viable businesses within the community because doing so creates economic value locally.

A PRACTICAL EXAMPLE

Imagine 1,000 InHood members in a defined neighbourhood in Onitsha.

The community gradually builds its productive fund.

Instead of trying to finance 100 businesses at once, InHood identifies genuine local demand.

Perhaps members regularly buy:

Bread + eggs + garri + packaged foods + laundry services + furniture + water + repairs.

The fund does not blindly distribute money.

It asks:

“What does this community already spend money on, and which of those needs can we produce or provide locally?”

That becomes the basis for financing.

This means DEMAND HELPS DETERMINE WHAT GETS FINANCED.

THE TECHNOLOGY INHOOD WOULD NEED

To make this work at scale, the platform would need more than a marketplace.

1. COMMUNITY VERIFICATION

Members belong to a defined geographic InHood community.

2. DIGITAL COMMUNITY FUND

Every contribution, loan, repayment and expenditure is recorded transparently.

3. PRODUCTIVE-ASSET LOAN SYSTEM

Members apply for financing specifically for approved productive assets.

4. ASSET VERIFICATION

The machine or equipment purchased is documented, tagged and tracked.

5. BUSINESS PROPOSAL & DEMAND EVIDENCE

A member demonstrates what they intend to produce and, where possible, evidence that people actually want it.

6. COMMUNITY ADVISORY/VOTING SYSTEM

Members can help assess proposed businesses, while professional credit and risk processes make the final financing decision.

7. INHOOD MARKETPLACE

Members list what they produce and the services they offer.

8. PRE-ORDERS

Members can announce upcoming production and collect legitimate orders before producing, reducing waste and improving cash flow.

9. REPUTATION SYSTEM

Businesses build ratings based on quality, reliability, delivery and customer experience.

10. EQUIPMENT SHARING

Members can rent or pay to use machines owned by other members.

11. LOCAL LOGISTICS

A member who needs garri, eggs, furniture or another product can order from another member and have it delivered locally.

12. FINANCIAL & LEGAL SAFEGUARDS

The fund should operate with proper governance, audited records, separation of community money from company operating funds, clear loan agreements, recovery procedures and, where lending or pooled funds require licensing, appropriately licensed financial partners.

THE BIGGER VISION

Start with one small community.

Awada.

Or a defined part of Ikeja.

Or Demsawo in Jimeta, Yola.

Or Mokola in Ibadan.

Or a defined neighbourhood in Kano or Port Harcourt.

Prove that the model works.

Then replicate it.

Awada doesn't need to wait for the whole of Onitsha.

Demsawo doesn't need to wait for all of Yola.

Mokola doesn't need to wait for all of Ibadan.

A neighbourhood in Kano doesn't need to wait for Kano.

Each InHood can build from its own people, its own needs, its own businesses and its own productive fund.

And eventually, thousands of InHoods could be connected to one larger network while retaining their local economic identity.

THE EUREKA QUESTION:

What if communities stopped being places where people simply live—and became places where people build, buy, sell, invest and grow together?

INHOOD

Build Where You Live.

Buy From Who You Know.

Grow What Your Community Needs.

Founder Idea: JERRAND(Jeekota Errand)

"Your Trusted Representative. Anywhere."

There are times when you need someone you can trust in another town, city or country, but you don't know anyone there.

I'm building JERRAND (Jeekota Errand), a platform that connects individuals, businesses and organisations with trusted local Representatives who can carry out tasks on their behalf.

Representatives choose the cities they operate in, define their service area and set their hourly or daily rates. Clients simply search, compare profiles and hire the Representative that best fits their needs.

A JERRAND Representative can:

Attend a business meeting
Inspect a property before purchase
Verify a supplier or business
Submit or collect official documents
Witness an event on your behalf
Deliver confidential documents
Buy goods from a local market
Queue on your behalf
Visit a government office
Check on a construction project
And much more.

To build trust, Representatives who wish to handle purchases or collect valuable items can provide a refundable liability commitment or a verified guarantor. Once a job is accepted, the Representative is marked Busy until it is completed. Payment is held securely and released only after the client confirms the job has been done.

I am seeking US$250,000 to build JERRAND and create a trusted network of local Representatives that helps people and businesses get things done, wherever they are.

Would you support JERRAND as a smarter way for people and businesses to find trusted Representatives anywhere they need them?

Founder Idea: ScoutEasy by JEEKOTA

"Upload Your Game. Let AI Scout You."

Every talented athlete deserves the opportunity to be discovered.

I'm building ScoutEasy, an AI-powered sports assessment platform that analyses match and training videos to build an athlete's performance profile.

An athlete simply uploads a video. ScoutEasy's AI evaluates the performance and scores the key attributes required for that sport on a 1–10 scale.

For football, these include:

Ball Control • Dribbling • Passing • Shooting • Pace • Strength • Stamina • Tackling • Positioning • Decision Making

Every new upload updates the athlete's profile, allowing scouts to see not only how good a player is today, but how quickly they are improving.

Imagine a 16-year-old footballer in Kano uploading one match every month. Over two years, his AI profile shows measurable progress:

Dribbling: 6.4 → 7.2 → 8.1

Passing: 5.9 → 6.8 → 7.4

Decision Making: 4.8 → 6.9 → 8.0

Growth becomes just as valuable as talent.

After every assessment, ScoutEasy also generates personalised AI coaching.

"Your acceleration is excellent, but you lose possession when turning under pressure. Improve your first touch and scan the field before receiving the ball."

Scouts, clubs and academies can search athletes by sport, location, age, position and specific performance attributes, helping them discover talented players who might otherwise remain unseen.

I am seeking US$100,000 to build the first version of ScoutEasy and demonstrate how AI can make sports talent discovery faster, fairer and more objective.

Let us have have your feedback.

JEEKOTA HERITAGE ARBORETUM (JHA)

What if we could save Nigeria's disappearing native plants before they are lost forever?

Jeekota Heritage Arboretum (JHA) is a vision to identify, preserve, propagate and restore Nigeria's indigenous plant heritage through conservation, research and community participation.

The project would establish greenhouses, nurseries, orchards, seed banks and an arboretum dedicated to protecting and multiplying:

Endangered native plant species
Rare indigenous fruit trees
Native medicinal plants
Traditional food crops
Indigenous shrubs and forest species
Wild relatives of cultivated crops

Once healthy populations have been established, selected species would gradually be reintroduced into suitable natural environments, helping to restore biodiversity and strengthen Nigeria's natural ecosystems.

Our long-term vision is to establish a National Native Species Conservation Centre that serves as a living archive of Nigeria's botanical heritage, supporting research, education, environmental restoration and future generations.

Every plant preserved today is a legacy for tomorrow.

FOUNDER IDEA: Jeekota Farming as a Service(JEEFAAS)

"You provide the land + capital. We farm it."

JEEFAAS would help landowners put their idle farmland to productive use without having to personally manage the farming process.

LANDOWNER PROVIDES:

🌱 Secure, cultivable farmland

💰 Agreed cultivation capital

🛡️ Protection of the farmland against trespassers and disruption

JEEFAAS PROVIDES:

👨🏾🌾 Professional farm management

👷🏾 Trained planters, weeders and harvesters

🚜 Farm operations and supervision

💧 Water support for selected dry-season farming

🌾 Harvesting and delivery

Our responsibility is simple: cultivation to harvest.

🚜 INITIAL CAPITAL

To establish JEEFAAS, we would raise capital to acquire essential operating infrastructure:

• Off-road vehicle for transporting workers and equipment

• Branded ropes, posts and markers to identify farm boundaries

• Water tankers for selected dry-season operations

• Basic operational facilities and equipment

🌾 THE FUTURE

As JEEFAAS grows profitably, we would seek additional investment to establish Agro-Processing & Storage Hubs.

Clients could then choose between receiving raw harvests or processed products:

Cassava → Garri

Yam → Yam Flour

Maize → Flour / Oil

LAND → CAPITAL → FARM → HARVEST → PROCESS → STORE → DELIVER

📍 PILOT

We would begin in secure agricultural corridors in Southern Nigeria, starting with selected LGAs and suitable crops before expanding.

This Machine Uses Lasers to Kill Weeds—No Chemicals Needed

Imagine controlling weeds without spraying herbicides or relying on hours of manual labour.

Farmers in the United States, Europe and Australia are increasingly using the LaserWeeder, an AI-powered agricultural machine that identifies weeds with cameras and destroys them using precise laser beams—without harming nearby crops.

The system scans thousands of plants every minute, distinguishes crops from weeds using artificial intelligence, and eliminates unwanted plants instantly. This reduces the need for herbicides, lowers labour costs, and helps farmers grow healthier crops while protecting the environment.

As labour shortages and production costs continue to rise around the world, technologies like this could transform agriculture by making farming more efficient, sustainable and profitable.

Rwanda Is Not Just Building an Airport. It Is Building a New City Around It.

Most people think an airport is simply a place where planes land and take off. Rwanda is trying something much bigger.

The New Kigali International Airport in Bugesera is being developed with support from the Qatar Investment Authority, but the real story is what is happening around the airport. Rwanda is planning an entire Airport City—a new economic zone with industries, logistics hubs, warehouses, hotels, offices, technology parks, and commercial districts connected to the airport.

The goal is not just to move passengers. The goal is to attract businesses, manufacturers, exporters, investors, and high-value jobs for decades to come. Instead of waiting for a city to grow around infrastructure, Rwanda is designing the infrastructure and the city together.

This is one of the most interesting development experiments in Africa because it asks a different question: What if a single project could create an entirely new economic ecosystem?

Discussion

If your state had ₦1 trillion to build one project that could create jobs for the next 50 years, what should it be?
