This was revealed in Kampala, Uganda early by John Bosco Kalisa, the executive director of the East African Business Council (EABC) where the facility is set for launch today.
The platform is Africa’s centralised customer due diligence digital repository. It derives its name from Mansa Mussa, a former emperor of the Mali Empire in the 14th century.
