I'll be sure to make this short, so i don't take most of your time.
I live in Nigeria, currently in my 2nd year in college, and as all 3rd world countries it's filled with so many problems that could be tackled, both here and in africa.
To be honest, building a tech solution is one thing, but getting clients is one of the hardest parts, considering the fact that the purchasing power over here isn't that high. ( I've seen a lot of startups shutdown)
Most Nigerians who are making an impact in the continent all live abroad, ( i definitely know it has it's advantages). But my question is, is it advisable to consider moving abroad after college, then begin my startup over there, and what exactly is it that i stand to gain that will aid in my startup journey?
Or
Do I begin bootstrapping from here and also focus on other african countries?
I don't mind getting a job abroad, as long as i get closer to my goals.
