Did safaricom patent Mpesa? Coz Obopay seems like a copy and paste of Mpesa only focusing on a much larger scale.on this pageyou find the following description. The part in red for me seems fishy, like she is taking the credit for a service that is already working perfectly here?Something doesnt add up. Maoni?in 2005, Carol Realini founded Obopay to meet the nascent need for an industry leader in mobile payments. Today, Obopay — through partnerships with financial institutions such as Citi and MasterCard and mobile carriers — is using mobile phones to deliver financial services that empower people’s life and work.
Carol founded Obopay after traveling in Africa and recognizing that while mobile phones were ubiquitous, many people didn’t have access to even the most basic banking services. Recognizing the need and opportunity in both industrialized and developing nations, Carol designed Obopay’s business model to promote social and economic development throughout the world, by providing mobile savings, money transfer, and payments to people everywhere.

God is not an excuse for lack of discipline

Our greatest fear is not that we are inadequate,but that we are powerful beyond measure.It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us.There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you.As we let our own light shine, we consciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our fear,our presence automatically liberates others.
