Hello Emeka,
It's great to see that you are still going strong at Timbuktu Chronicles. I dropped off a tip to the editor of the African Loft today about a new USAID/Western Union/Ecobank program for African entrepreneurs based in the USA. As I have not been able to find news about the 'African Diaspora Marketplace' here at The Timbuktu Chronicles I felt that I should share this info with you and your readers as well. Have a look at the following press release from Ecobank and the ADM website:
