Africa’s tech scene is booming. Startups are rising, foreign investors are pouring in, and young creators are proving that innovation is not just a Western story. Yet one company, Zagasm, claims to be at the forefront of Africa’s biggest tech movement.
At first glance, Zagasm looks like pure entertainment — an app built in Africa, for Africans. But the way things are unfolding, it’s clear the vision runs much deeper.
At the center of it all is GU Abraham, the man behind Zagasm, who is now leading what some describe as one of the most ambitious African tech movements of this decade. His mission is simple but bold: to put African creativity on the global map and build platforms that Africans truly own.
Still, questions linger. Can one app, even a promising one, shoulder the weight of Africa’s vast tech ambitions? This isn’t just about jokes or memes — it’s about infrastructure, scale across 54 countries, and competing in a digital economy that has too often sidelined African voices.
It’s a vision brimming with hope — but easier said than done. Africa is massive, and the question remains: can Zagasm really carry the weight of Africa’s tech future, or is this dream too heavy for one app to lift?
