It will succeed because she knows what the crowd wants. Not the tech crowd or the cool crowd but the mob whose size makes everyone else pay attention. People keep underestimating her because she doesn’t have the credentials we like to be deceived by. To them she’s just the crude blogger girl from Mushin who got lucky. The reality however is she’s clearly proving to be something else. Yes, the platform has teething problems but she has die hard loyalists who have no alternative and will remain there and create user generated content without prompting while she gets to collect data for advertisers targeting the young and mobile market. In one swoop she has shown the potential to threaten the business model of several Nigerian platforms from Konga to Nairaland. Underestimate her at your own peril.
