Project description for CV
Buhari Jemilu led the whole design from start to finish.
Aegle is a platform to consult Doctors via voice call, video
call, chat and home visit. The mission was to create an
intuitive interface for users and doctors. A balance between
form and function - a sophisticated app with a satisfying
user experience.
Founded in April of 2016, Bitmama started out as a P2P
digital currency exchange. It quickly grew into a platform
where traders buy and sell with new digital currencies like
bitcoin and ethereum.

Nigeria does not have a Centralized Health Information
platform where healthly or recovering individuals can
visit to learn about their health, new symptoms and get
help till they are whole and/or maintain that health. With
the emerging viral disease called COVID-19 which has hit
the world hard, imagine how Nigerians would be able to
manage in this period. Just of recent some Nigerians went
on twitter complaining of how the NCDC is not picking
their emergency lines and this has affected Nigerians who
feel they have the symptoms but have no right channel
to talk to. Getting the right information about a new illness
or symptom or getting first hand help online can be a
chore, as you would need to verify the information with
multiple sources first.
Floy is buy-now-pay-later app where users can buy fashion
items now and pay later. I led the design team in
accomplishing the clients needs from design to
development stage.

This is an ongoing project for a Nigerian Client. They
probelm they tend to solve is very simple. The Client needs
to be able to monitor and track what goes on in his
Pharmaceutical company without being there physically.
Imagine
having many branches all across the country, how do you
monitor all your staffs and employees without being with
them.
This is what the project aims so solve.
