“[Gates] was really intrigued, and he smiled,” says Kwekowe, 23. “After the program, all the directors were like, ‘Dude, you mean you actually turned down a job at Microsoft and had the guts to tell Bill Gates?”
The answer is yes, but the reason why Kwekowe declined the job offer was because he wanted to focus on his joint startup, with his brother Emerald, called Slatecube.
According to Newsweek, a survey of 90,000 was conducted in Nigeria this January where it was found that 45% of graduates were unemployed. The research showed that they were rejected for lack of professional skills such as critical thinking, entrepreneurship, and decision-making, and Slatecube helps these people to develop these skills!
