What I work on

Geospatial & digital infrastructure

Applying GIS and spatial analytics to telecoms, land, housing and infrastructure: coverage planning, market sizing, risk mapping and decision support.

Proptech & housing systems

Designing digital land and housing rails where parcels, titles and transactions are first-class data – not files trapped in cabinets.

Fintech & cross-border rails

Building payment flows that connect diaspora capital, local markets and real assets, with compliance and transparency baked in from day one.

SlasProp+SlasPay – one rail for land & money

Most systems split land information and payment flows into separate silos. SlasProp+SlasPay treats them as one continuous process: map the parcel, verify the rights, move the money – on rails that governments, banks and buyers can trust.

The platform is being designed for use cases in Nigeria, wider Africa and North America, with GIS, blockchain and cloud infrastructure under the hood.
