On the other hand they're investing in Africa where I don't believe anyone else is. I don't think opportunities for Africans to learn/practice software development in their native country are very common. Moreover while their salary is low compared to western devs, it's still (apparently? Article not clear) high for Africa, where wealth inequality is extreme, mind you, so their "low" salary probably goes a really long way. I imagine they also hire inexperienced workers, so this sounds like a legit opportunity depending on what they're doing.
I suppose the crime here is misleading investors as to the proportion of funds that go to salary...but I don't know what they're doing with the money, and unfortunately they might be passing on more of it than some popular charities.
Article needs work perhaps.
