Konga today is a household name and one of the leading online shops in africa. However, many people do not even know that the owner of Konga is also the proud owner of DealDey and E-motion!
So what's his name? He is Sim Shagaya: Founder, Konga, DealDey and E-motion. The truth of the matter is, you won’t be wrong to dub Sim a serial failure! (That's in the past now, anyway).
Before going on to succeed with DealDey, Konga and his billboard advertizing agency, E-motion, he had launched “a failed dating site, a jobs portal that never caught on and a Nollywood streaming service that came before its time.”
“I learned something from each, every single one. There is not one I didn’t learn a lesson from. You just have to keep getting up. And have no ego,” Sim said in a 2013 interview.
