In this episode of Difference She Makes, we sit down with Odunoluwa Longe, Founder of TLP Advisory and Co-Founder of DIY Law, to explore how women are shaping the legal frameworks powering Africa’s tech ecosystem.

Odunoluwa was part of the collaborative process that led to the Nigeria Startup Act, a landmark law designed to support startups, align regulators, and create a governance framework for innovation.

We explore:
• Why regulation should never be ahead of innovation
• What founders risk when they avoid policymakers
• How women navigate male-dominated spaces like law and tech
• Why mentorship matters in specialized legal fields
• How to build a firm where women don’t have to choose between leadership and life
“Regulation will be built around you if you don’t put yourself forward.

Each week on Legally Clueless, Adelle Onyango turns the microphone toward the beautifully messy reality of growth. As a well-known Kenyan media personality and social activist, she doesn't offer polished advice from a stage, but instead documents her own unvarnished experiences, framing her life as an evolving and unapologetically African woman. This creates a rare and welcoming atmosphere where uncertainty isn't a flaw but a shared starting point. The heart of this podcast lives in the stories-Adelle opens the space for a chorus of African voices to share personal narratives that might teach you something one moment and have you laughing or crying the next. These aren't theoretical discussions; they're authentic accounts from everyday lives, full of the specific textures and truths that often go unheard. Tuning in feels less like attending a lecture and more like sitting in on a powerful, ongoing conversation where the only requirement is to be human. You'll find a sense of connection in hearing others navigate the same complexities you do, all within the candid and compassionate world this podcast builds every episode.
