How true could this be? Tecno And Infinix are owned by a Nigerian?

Before now, most of us already know that Tecno Mobile, Infinix Mobility and probably Itel Mobile are from the same parent company.  Well, if you are the type that don’t know this before then am telling you now that they are all from the same parent company.. But I never have the idea that they are all owned by a Nigerian.

This morning while roaming online, I stumble on a Article online @blueprintafric.co that talks about Tecno Mobile, Infinix Mobility and Itel Mobile been owned by a Nigerian entrepreneur called Nnamdi Ezeigbo, which is also CEO of SLOT.

According to my source, Nnamdi Ezeigbo went to china and got a company to build the phone Tecno! He didn’t go there and ask Chinese people to give him substandard, he went and built quality. He initially wasn’t versed in Phone Sales, but to expand his business, he went to Lagos Business School to learn. He already has a masters degree in Information Technology added to a HND in Electrical Electronics and a BSC in Computer & Electronics Engineering. He, Nnamdi Ezeigbo is a young Nigerian and is making ways for himself.

Even Tecno Mobile Wikipedia page says that “Tecno Mobile started in July 2006 in Hong Kong,
after Nigerian entrepreneur, Nnamdi Ezeigbo, approached a former Bird
employee for a partnership to manufacture affordable dual sim phones
Nigerians could easily afford.”Before now,  I taught that a Chinese Company owned these OEM brands but with the little fact on Tecno Mobile Wikipedia page and the other ones gather online revealed that the company Tecno Mobile, the current highest selling phones in Nigeria and other part of Africa countries is owned by fellow Nigerian, Mr Nnamdi Ezeigbo. Wow that’s great.
