Everyday questions that usually turn into a conversation

Turn local information into an advantage

Mba’e Oiko helps in those ordinary moments when knowing a little more can save money, time, or unnecessary uncertainty.

Fuel

“Gs. 9,000 per litre? Look at this.”

Compare recent prices and find a station that offers a better option. Instead of only talking about how expensive fuel has become, you have something concrete to act on.

A quick check can save real money.

Electricity

“Is the power out only here?”

Everything goes dark. Before checking the breaker repeatedly or asking around in several chats, look at the map. Nearby reports give you immediate context.

Less uncertainty, more useful information.

Water

“No water again?”

If the tap is dry or pressure suddenly drops, Mba’e Oiko can show whether people nearby have already reported an outage, low pressure, or intermittent supply.

First see what is happening in the area.

Three questions. One map.

The information you need, when you need it

You do not need another chat to follow or hundreds of messages to search. Choose a category and go straight to the information that can help.

Where should I fill up?

Compare recent fuel prices by station. When there is enough data, Mba’e Oiko shows which observations are below or above the nearby median.

What is happening with the power?

Check reports about outages, low voltage, overvoltage, strong fluctuations and repeated interruptions.

What is happening with the water?

Find recent reports of no water, low pressure, intermittent supply, visible discoloration, or leaks in public areas.

Look. Compare. Contribute.

The community makes the map useful

There is no need to write a long explanation. Contributions are quick and structured so information can reach the map and help the next person.

Check

Choose electricity, water or fuel and see what recent information is available in the area you care about.

Compare and confirm

Compare prices and stations or confirm whether a reported problem is still happening.

Leave something useful behind

Update a price or report a problem. A contribution that takes seconds can save someone else time or money.

Information is not only published. It is checked.

Every contribution can gain context from the community

Mba’e Oiko is designed for quick participation and for information to be checked again by people on the ground.

Someone contributes

A person reports a problem, adds a fuel station, or updates a price.

Others check it

People nearby can confirm a report or verify with one tap that a displayed fuel price is still correct.

The data gains context

Recent checks help distinguish current information from data that needs another review.

You can just look. Or become part of it.

An account is optional; regular participation gives you more

The map works without an account. If you contribute regularly, you can keep your activity history, show a public profile if you choose, follow public profiles, and receive recognition for useful participation.

Your activity, organized

Find your reports, verifications, prices, and other contributions again in your personal area.

Your contribution counts

Badges recognize contributions, real-world checks, confirmed contributions, and people who help the community grow.

Follow public activity

You can follow public profiles and see activity they choose to share without turning Mba’e Oiko into a chat or messaging network.

You decide what becomes public. A public profile, public contribution history, and appearing as a contributor on map items are separate choices. Participating does not require publishing your identity.

Information gets better when it moves

One small data point may be exactly what someone else needed

  • You update a price while passing by.Someone else can make a better choice before filling the tank.
  • You confirm the outage is still active.A neighbour knows it is probably not an isolated problem at home.
  • You report a water outage.Someone nearby gets context without starting from zero.
