Mr Samuel Obinna, founder and chief executive of Skite, has announced the company’s expanded focus on Nigeria’s fast-growing knowledge economy with a platform designed to help creators and professionals monetise expertise from a single system.

Skite is building an all-in-one infrastructure for knowledge entrepreneurs, enabling users to sell courses and digital products, host paid communities, run live events, offer one-on-one consultations, and manage audience monetisation without relying on multiple tools.

According to Mr Obinna, the platform is aimed at solving a long-standing fragmentation problem in the creator economy, where professionals are forced to combine several apps to manage payments, content delivery, community engagement, and marketing.

He said early users on Skite have recorded up to 30 per cent increases in revenue after consolidating their operations on the platform, while premium users benefit from a zero transaction fee model.

“The knowledge economy is creating unprecedented opportunities for professionals to earn from what they know,” Mr Obinna said, adding that, “Skite exists to provide the infrastructure that makes it easier to build and scale those businesses in one place.”

He told Business Post that the idea for Skite was shaped by his personal experience with content creation.

According to him, he had previously explored teaching and sharing knowledge through content online, but found it difficult to monetise consistently.

He noted that much of the value he was putting out was being consumed for free without a structured system for earning from it. That experience, he said, influenced his decision to build Skite as a platform where creators and professionals can directly convert expertise into income.

He further stated that the platform is targeting a growing wave of creators, coaches, consultants, and educators in Nigeria who are shifting toward structured knowledge-based businesses rather than traditional content-driven influence alone.

Mr Obinna added that Skite’s long-term vision is to become the core operating system for knowledge entrepreneurs across emerging markets, simplifying how expertise is packaged, sold, and scaled.

Skite is an all-in-one creator monetisation platform that enables knowledge creators to build, grow, and monetise their businesses from a single system.

The platform provides tools for selling courses and digital products, hosting paid communities, running live events, offering one-on-one consultations, monetising direct audience interactions and managing sales funnels. Skite is designed to help creators turn expertise into sustainable and scalable income.

The heat was turned all the way up in the MasterChef Nigeria kitchen as the Top 6 faced another Black Apron Day, where one contestant’s dream would come to a boil.

This week’s challenge was a true Nigerian classic with a competitive twist: the contestants had to create a Jollof Rice Feast inspired by two regions of Nigeria. With jollof rice sitting proudly at the heart of Nigerian food culture, the judges were looking for bold flavours, regional identity, strong execution and, most importantly, a dish where jollof was the star of the plate.

For Loye, however, the challenge did not come together the way he had hoped. He was not fully satisfied with the dish he presented, and the judges shared the same concerns. While there were elements of promise, they felt he did not hero the jollof rice enough in a challenge where the beloved dish needed to take centre stage.

Chef Stone acknowledged Loye’s potential, saying he could build himself into a MasterChef, but on the day, the dish was not enough to keep him in the competition. Chef Eros encouraged him to cook with more heart, reminding him that great food is not only about technique, but also emotion, confidence and connection.

After a tough tasting, Loye’s MasterChef Nigeria journey came to an end.

Also feeling the heat were Isabella and David, who joined Loye in the bottom three.

For Isabella, the challenge was an important opportunity to prove that she belonged in the MasterChef kitchen after last week’s disastrous cake bake. She hoped her jollof rice feast would be the dish to take her out of the danger zone, but the judges felt there were too many flavours competing on the plate.

David also found himself under pressure after failing to complete his dish on time, a costly mistake that landed him among the weakest cooks of the day.

But while some dishes struggled to find their rhythm, Favy had every reason to celebrate. Even with the immunity pin in her possession, she cooked with confidence and delivered the standout plate of the day. Her dish earned high praise from the judges for its great flavours, leaving her visibly emotional and overjoyed. In recognition of her outstanding performance, Favy was rewarded with a one-year supply of Sonia products, as well as an exclusive dining experience for her and her family at Ile Eros.

With Loye now eliminated, the competition has officially reached boiling point. The remaining contestants will need to bring more than just seasoning to survive — they will need heart, hustle and plates packed with purpose.

Produced by Primedia Group, MasterChef Nigeria is supported by a strong coalition of leading Nigerian brands, including headline sponsor Power Oil, alongside Indomie, Dano Milk, Malta Guinness, Sonia Tomato, Kiara Rice, Golden Penny Flour, Golden Penny Sugar, Golden Penny Garri, Golden Penny Semolina, Golden Penny Chocolate Spread, and Golden Penny Wheat.

MasterChef Nigeria continues on Africa Magic, where the search for Nigeria’s next MasterChef gets hotter with every challenge.

The show airs weekly on Sundays at 7 pm on Africa Magic Showcase and Africa Magic Family, with rebroadcasts on Wednesdays at 6 pm on Africa Magic Showcase and Thursdays at 12 pm on Africa Magic Family. 

Next week on MasterChef Nigeria, the kitchen gets even hotter as the remaining contestants fight to stay in the competition. With Loye gone and the finale getting closer, there is no room for half-baked ideas, shaky execution or dishes that miss the brief. The pressure is rising, the judges are watching every move, and one wrong plate could send another contestant packing.
