They spoke unanimously at the Yellowlyfe Tech Unwind event which was held at Rango Rooftop, Lekki Phase 1 area of Lagos State on Saturday even as they noted that an increase in tech startups will encourage healthy competition and foreign investors.
The event brought together people in the tech community with aim of networking and creating an environment that fosters unity and bonding among the experts.
