Hello Monday!

It’s another edition of the Big 5 Daily! 

 

Big news! The African Development Bank (AfDB) secured $3 billion in a three-year bond. The fund will help boost the economic and social impact of Africa’s economies and livelihood after this COVID-19 pandemic.

Next, Redbird, a healthtech startup based in Ghana, has unveiled an app that citizens can use to track symptoms. The COVID-19 Daily Check-in App and Symptom Tracker will be leveraged to contain the spread of the virus in Africa.

Guess what? Konnect Africa, a subsidiary of Eutelsat Communications, has revealed its plans to equip 3600 schools in DRC with high-speed internet. The project will last for a year, during which each school subscribed to the ‘’home Unlimited or plus” package will benefit from the project.

Still, on education, the Ogun State government in Nigeria unveiled #OGUNDIGICLASS. The government will leverage this project to commence the transmission of digital classes for primary and secondary school students via OGTV. This project will compensate for the period schools are closed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Finally, Credit and Loan company, Renmoney have laid-off 391 sales officials from its workforce. This lay-off is a bid for the company to adopt digital means in discharging its duties adequately. The company will no longer operate a direct sales channel.
