In a bold move to transform how African professionals access work and recognition, Peepuu, pronounced ‘People’ a human-first, tech-powered career acceleration platform, has officially launched in Nigeria.
With an ambitious goal to close the gap between Africa’s top talent and the global market, Peepuu is offering a new model for what digital hiring, upskilling, and remote career growth can look like from the continent.
Peepuu: Where Talent Meets Opportunity. Boldly. Digitally. Globally.
Nigeria faces one of the highest youth unemployment and underemployment rates on the continent, despite producing a vast number of skilled graduates and professionals annually. The mismatch between talent and opportunity continues to stifle both national productivity and individual potential.
Peepuu is stepping into this gap, not just as a job platform, but as an ecosystem built to restore career confidence, improve incomes, and position Nigerian professionals for global relevance.

“What we’re building with Peepuu is a movement. We’re rebuilding the professional confidence of a generation that’s been told they’re not enough. We’re using Technology, Community, and Strategic Access to help Nigerian professionals show up where it matters, globally,” said Mrs. Oluwadamilola Fayanjuola, founder of Peepuu.
A Platform Built for Growth, Not Just Gig Work
Peepuu provides a comprehensive experience that bridges the full spectrum of the talent journey. The platform offers:
- A remote job board showcasing verified international opportunities that Nigerians are eligible for.
- Career coaching, upskilling programs, and mentorship for long-term career acceleration
- A gateway for global employers to access an undiluted pool of skilled Nigerian talent
- A curated digital community that fosters collaboration, peer support, and continuous learning
Unlike traditional job boards or freelance sites, Peepuu is intentional about creating pathways, not just placements.
Solving a Structural Problem at Scale
The Stakeholders of Peepuu are no strangers to the local talent paradox: thousands of qualified professionals across Nigeria are either unemployed or earning far below their capabilities. Peepuu wants to change this by taking a data-informed, user-first approach to helping Nigerians position themselves on a global stage.
The platform’s core objectives include:
- Reducing youth unemployment and underemployment
- Increasing access to remote and high-quality global roles
- Empowering local professionals with the tools and confidence to thrive internationally
- Building a new economy of competitive, visible, and connected African professionals
“At Peepuu, we believe global opportunities shouldn’t be reserved for the few with foreign passports or networks. We’re making it accessible at scale to those who have the talent but lack the exposure,” the founder added.
What Makes Peepuu Different?
- Designed with Nigeria in Mind: Peepuu’s platform architecture is tailored to the challenges and realities of working professionals on the continent—from poor job visibility to skill gaps and infrastructure limitations.
- A Human-Centered Ecosystem: Every aspect—from AI-matching to mentorship—is built with empathy and empowerment at the core.
- Real Community, Real Impact: Users join a vibrant tribe of peers and mentors who support, hold each other accountable, and grow together.
Looking Ahead
As remote work becomes a global norm, Peepuu’s launch is timely and essential. The team behind the platform envisions a near future where Nigeria, African professionals are not just competing globally but winning, leading, and thriving.
Already in talks with global employers and strategic partners, Peepuu is positioned to be a trusted bridge between African talent and global teams, elevating top talents from overlooked to globally in-demand.
This is not another job board. This is a digital talent revolution. This is Peepuu!
