The project represents a genuine effort to support African e-commerce (Tony Elumelu Foundation grant recipient 2019), but the submission is critically flawed. The provided URL (nayamaxhld.com) is expired and for sale, indicating severe operational instability or negligence. While a likely active alternative domain (mynayamax.com) exists, the submission's claims of 'everyone' as the audience and 'most people have used my product' are demonstrably false and damage credibility. The project is at a very early or struggling stage with minimal verifiable traction.
