Mohammed Mustapha Yakubu

Are you currently part of the committee they are applying for?

No

Is there a particular role within the committee that you are interested in, if so which and why? (if applicable)

I am interested in a role that focuses on community engagement and governance education. I would like to help bridge the gap between the Cardano ecosystem and newcomers, ensuring better participation and involvement in governance.

What is your experiences within Intersect and Cardano?

I am the Founder and Director of the Cardano Ghana Community and a Cardano Ambassador, dedicated to advancing blockchain education, youth empowerment, and community-driven projects. Since 2021, I have organized and facilitated several community-led events, including the Cardano Summit 2021, 2022, and 2023, which collectively engaged over 500 participants. Through my work, I have onboarded more than 100 individuals to Project Catalyst and educated hundreds more on the opportunities within the Cardano ecosystem.

As a proud individual founding member of Intersect, I have been closely involved in governance activities, including launching the CIP 1694 Governance Working Groups in Tamale. This initiative allowed community members to explore Cardano's governance framework during the Voltaire era, with a focus on decentralized decision-making and governance participation. My role within Cardano Ghana extends to educating and guiding newcomers through governance mechanisms, fostering a deeper understanding of blockchain technology and its potential to drive socio-economic change in Ghana.

What are your pledges and plans should you be elected?

I pledge to prioritize education and awareness campaigns to increase membership participation in governance. I also plan to collaborate with other communities to build initiatives that support a decentralized future.

Why should the community vote for you?

The community should vote for me because of my extensive experience in grassroots blockchain education, organizing events, and successfully onboarding people into Cardano's ecosystem. I am committed to ensuring transparency and inclusivity within Intersect.

Do you have any other Cardano affiliations or possible conflicts of interests, including you as an individual or an enterprise you are associated with?

No known conflicts of interest.

Are you currently in receipt of or previously received any Intersect or Cardano funding or grant?

No, I have not received any funding or grants from Intersect or Cardano.
