thumb|Onyeka_Akumah Onyeka Akumah (born 21 October 1984) is a Nigerian technology entrepreneur with a focus on transportation, agriculture, real estate, and media sectors. He is popularly known as the founder of Treepz Inc. Quotes Our ambition at Treepz is to build the largest shared mobility platform on the African continent, starting with West Africa. In 23 months, we have been able to complete 490,000+ rides and register over 960 vehicles on our platform. We plan to double these numbers with our Nigerian and Ghana operations, then replicate our existing model across 6 other African cities. There are no necessary connections with the acquisition of Stabus Ghana, which will now be known as Treepz Ghana. But after a successful seed round, we immediately started thinking of how scaleable the indigenous name Plentywaka would be around Africa and the rest of the world. We knew we needed a less complex name for the business so that eventually, it’s easy to pronounce and widely accepted by all, irrespective of language and culture. Our acquisition of Stabus, one of Ghana’s leading mobility startups, is a step to further our ambition of building the largest shared mobility platform in Africa. Over the next two years, we have a Pan-African growth plan which has started, and we plan to expand into 6 African countries in that time. Isidore is a brilliant entrepreneur who I have been keeping tabs on for a while. The conversations leading to this were entirely organic as Treepz and Stabus innovated public transportation using technology. Our combined expertise would make a greater impact and help us discover new consumer insights.
