PlentyWaka raises US$1.2 million as it purchases another Ghanaian mobility start-up PlentyWaka, a Nigeran bus hailing and mobility service, has plenty going on for it these days. After just securing some funding to expand its services beyond Lagos into other commercial hubs in the country, they have secured yet another US$1.2 million that enables them grow and expand even further. The evidence of that growth is already showing in the company’s latest acquisition of Stabus, a Ghanaian start-up in the same industry. With this acquisition, PlentyWaka begins to make its move outside of the Nigerian market as it seeks to become a bus hailing service to be reckoned with in the whole of West Africa and even Africa at large. Since launch, the PlentyWaka service has been based on helping passengers book bus fares online and in real time like they would buy air fares. Over the past year alone, the company has enjoyed considerable growth in the area of funding and also, getting people to use and commit to its services. Thus, it makes sense that they capitalise on that current visibility to even reach more people while curating better solutions to help the existing market base. The latest funding round is led by Xchange, a Toronto-based fund, which is geared towards helping the Nigerian start-up scale, and do so fast.

Google is bringing an important Chrome desktop feature to mobile with Android 12 Google has been pushing to have the same functionality across the desktop and mobile versions of its apps and solutions. With the coming Android 12, the Chrome browser could be one of those apps to get the biggest improvements in this instance. For now, it is possible to open multiple tabs in both the desktop and mobile apps. You can also group these tabs on the desktop app so that they are easy to manage, however, one thing that you cannot do on the mobile side is have multiple windows of the browser open. This has been here for desktop for a long time now which allows you to launch the app simultaneously like you were opening another browser. Some might use this feature to separate their incognito from main tabs – or just use it to separate their web works into different sections. With the new update spotted to come with Android 12, android users will now be able to open as much as 5 windows to work concurrently on their phones. There is also no limit to how many tabs can be open within each window. Given the rate at which Google Chrome consumes resources, though, we wait to see how the search engine giant will optimise this such that it doesn’t hog up too much processing power on the phones that do choose to use the feature.
