idea was conceived after a colleague who works as a healthcare assistant lost
his dad late last year.
“After speaking with his father about assisting him to cargo
some goods for him to the UK, 24 hours after the conversation between father
and son, he received a call from Nigeria that the father had passed on , what’s
most heartbreaking about his situation is that he works as a healthcare
assistant here in the UK taking care of people’s families but he wasn’t there
to take care of his dad due to his absence from home and that was how our
startup idea was conceived”, he said.
