Obanor Chukwuwezam

I am passionate about technology, about change and innovation but above all I am passionate about people and actively engaging in endeavours and ventures that have huge potentials to create wealth for people in my society. To that effect, in 2014 I started a venture to help millions of students going through academic difficulties. My co-founder and I built Prepclass, a startup with the potential of connecting over 15 million learners in Nigeria who need tutors, to more than 5 million skilled individuals in the country who have the requisite skills and are either unemployed or underemployed. Since September 2014, Prepclass has generated thousands of jobs, served around 100,000 tutoring hours and created around $400,000 worth of income for tutors who work with us. I always have spare time to discuss and participate in projects that can change the world around me.
