Telling African stories

African creators are changing the game. We’re here to tell their stories.

SkiteCreators is our carousel series on the creators doing the most across the continent — the hustle, the setbacks, the breakthrough and the lessons. One creator per post, start to now.

What SkiteCreators is

African creators are making people laugh, teaching skills, telling our stories on film and putting their cities on the map. We’ve seen what they can do, so we’re telling their stories our way.

We don’t wait for anyone else to give them the spotlight.

Told properly

Not a highlight reel. The years before it worked are the part of the story that matters.

Proof it can be done

Every story is somebody who turned what they know and love into income. That is the whole idea behind Skite.

Tag the ones you rate

If a story sounds like a creator you follow, send it to them. That is the point of posting it.

Look how far we’ve come

01

Skits

Comedy shot on phones in Lagos, Accra and Nairobi now lands on feeds all over the world.

02

Classes

Creators teach what they actually know — design, music, trading, make-up — and get paid for it.

03

Films & vlogs

Africa documented by Africans, on our own terms, for audiences that never used to see it.

04

Music

The sound of the continent sets the tempo everywhere else. Nobody needs convincing any more.

Creators aren’t just making content. They’re creating jobs, starting businesses and showing a generation what’s possible.

What every post looks like

Same shape every time, so you know what you’re getting before you swipe.

  1. 01

    One creator, five to nine slides

    Never more than ten. Long enough to tell the real story, short enough that you finish it.

  2. 02

    A cover that reads as a journey

    Where they started → where they are now, in one line, on the cover.

  3. 03

    Their own photos, credited

    Every photo carries the handle it came from, and the dates and figures are confirmed before anything goes up.

  4. 04

    A recap, then the same end card

    The lesson in their words, then: follow Skite for more African creator stories.

The stories

Story No.01Up first

Tayo Aina

Uber in Lagos → filming Africa for the world

  • Selling to classmates as a student, a restaurant that didn’t make it, then driving Uber around Lagos.
  • Filming the city’s buildings between rides, because he couldn’t not film.
  • A concert video that broke out, and a first trip abroad.
  • The views arrived long before the money did — and a season stuck indoors turned into the breakthrough.
  • Nobody was documenting Africa the way he saw it, so he built a business around doing exactly that.

“Fall in love with making videos first.”
