Lai Mohammed Applauds Unicorn Group for Assisting Nigeria

The Unicorn Group, a corporation committed to the incubation of business ideas, has been praised by Alhaji Lai Mohammed, Minister of Information and Culture, as a real embodiment of the Nigerian spirit offering hope and assisting in the construction of a “New Nigeria”.

In a statement issued on Friday, Segun Adeyemi, Special Assistant to the President (Media), Office of the Minister of Information and Culture, confirmed this.  

“The seeds of creativity are being watered by Unicorn. Unicorn demonstrates that the impossible is neither Nigerian nor African. Thank you for believing in Nigeria and putting your money where your mouth is, the Minister said during a visit to Unicorn’s Yaba campus in Lagos on Thursday. Unicorn is a pan-African investment firm that focuses on innovative ideas, start-ups, and early-stage companies in the technology and technology-enabled sectors across Africa”. 

Unicorn provides education, training, coaching, infrastructure and long-term finance to entrepreneurs, start-ups and early-stage enterprises in the technology and technology-enabled industry through its ecosystem model.

He expressed his delight that the company is bringing young people into its ecosystem, including those from underserved communities. 

“This is the place where wishes come true. This is where ideas are born and they become reality. Having the young ones, from basic to intermediate to higher schools, to witness the finest of Nigeria and the best of Africa is massive, in reference to the numerous pupils he met at the Yaba campus.,” Alhaji Mohammed added.  

He stated the choice to visit is not simply to view the excellent job that Unicorn is doing, but also to help inform the world what Unicorn is doing, adding:” This is why I have come with approximately 25 journalists from various media organizations to see and exhibit Unicorn’s revolutionary work to the globe. 

The Minister was subsequently led on a guided tour of the Unicorn’s Yaba facility, during which he met with some of the firms that have been successfully nurtured.  

Bookings Africa.com, for example, assists professionals of all stripes in monetizing their skills; Film Anatomies, which employs 3D technology to make much-needed machine components, therefore saving the government considerable resources in foreign exchange; RxAll which produced the technology for authenticating drugs; Mobaby that caters to the requirements of newborns and Yahshua, which prevents the exclusion of Muslims, who may not believe in the traditional mortgage system, from the real estate market.
