What is the meaning of USSD?
If you asked a random person in the city of Lagos, Accra, Addis Ababa or Nairobi what the acronym USSD represented, chances are you will not get much of a correct answer from them 🤭
We know and mostly use its different iterations e.g. telco recharge codes, bank codes, mobile money codes, etc. But the history and meaning of USSD are somewhat of a foreign concept to most of us.
