Many Parts of Dozy Mmobuosi, a Show Promoter Turned Tech Giant

A political science graduate with a master’s degree in economics, Dozy Mmobuosi is a technology entrepreneur. Mmobuosi is the Group CEO of Tingo International Holdings Inc., a global company playing critical roles in the telecommunications, remittance, healthcare, and agriculture sectors.

Mmobuosi’s entrepreneurial spirit began in secondary school when he sold clothes
in his neighbourhood whenever he was on holiday. On getting to Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma, Mmobuosi furthered his enterprising journey by publishing and promoting a magazine while also organising music shows and beauty pageant across Nigerian campuses.

As an entrepreneur, Mmobuosi strives to bring change and simplicity to Africans.
Aside from Tingo Holdings Inc., he started a social media platform, Naijafans,
in 2003. He was also part of the team that built the first mobile payment platform in Nigeria.

In the early 2000s, Mmobuosi co-founded Fair Deal Concept — now Tingo Mobile
— with his father, who provided guidance and was the company’s first investor. Under Mmobuosi’s leadership, Tingo built sub-Saharan Africa’s first mobile phone assembly plant.

In the past 16 years, Mmobuosi has made a name for himself in the telecommunications,
remittance, healthcare, and agriculture sectors within and outside Africa. He’s the brain behind companies like Tingo Remit, Tingo Health, Tingo Mobile Plc., Tingo Mobile UK, and Nwassa, all of which are under the Tingo International Holdings Inc. umbrella
