"Yanmo Omorogbe(born November 2,1994) is a Nigerian entrepreneur and finance professional."
"" It's always shocking to me just how few female founders there are across the board. If you check the Africa stats, there's less, there's maybe five, at least in Nigeria, female founders who've raised a Series A. And we're not even talking about sole female founders, just literally companies with a female co-founder." Yanmo speaking on gender inequality in the African TECH space"
"I wouldn't advise anyone to start a tech company unless it was your dream."
"What I do tell women in general is that whatever dream you have, whatever goal you have there is room to scale it."
"" We need more women across, not necessarily being founders, being product managers and being customer experience. We need just more women across the entire value chain so that there's no more news that like you're a woman founder. There's no term like male founder. "Yanmo on the need for more involvement from women in the African TECH industry"
"My general philosophy about life is: what’s the worst that could happen? If I reflect on this, and I am okay with the worst‑case scenario, then why not?"
"“As a society, we need to make it easier for women to become founders, to enter tech, to start learning to code, or know what other opportunities are available. Spaces need to be safer for women — women are over mentored and underfunded. They don’t need another seminar; give them a check."
Young though he was, his radiant energy produced such an impression of absolute reliability that Hedgewar made him the first sarkaryavah, or general secretary, of the RSS.
- Gopal Mukund Huddar
Largely because of the influence of communists in London, Huddar's conversion into an enthusiastic supporter of the fight against fascism was quick and smooth. The ease with which he crossed from one worldview to another betrays the fact that he had not properly understood the world he had grown in.
Huddar would have been 101 now had he been alive. But then centenaries are not celebrated only to register how old so and so would have been and when. They are usually celebrated to explore how much poorer our lives are without them. Maharashtrian public life is poorer without him. It is poorer for not having made the effort to recall an extraordinary life.
I regret I was not there to listen to Balaji Huddar's speech [...] No matter how many times you listen to him, his speeches are so delightful that you feel like listening to them again and again.
By the time he came out of Franco's prison, Huddar had relinquished many of his old ideas. He displayed a worldview completely different from that of the RSS, even though he continued to remain deferential to Hedgewar and maintained a personal relationship with him.
