Across Africa, thousands of skilled individuals have the talent and drive to make a difference — but lack the right platforms to connect with clients and grow their businesses. Sombo is changing that story.

Built to bridge the gap between skills and opportunity, Sombo empowers professionals, artisans, and service providers by giving them digital visibility, credibility, and access to clients they might never have reached otherwise. From mechanics and electricians to consultants and translators, Sombo helps every kind of professional showcase their work, build a profile, and grow their client base with ease.

By focusing on trust, transparency, and accessibility, Sombo creates equal opportunities for both individuals and companies. Our verification process ensures reliability, while our technology makes it simple for clients to find and book experts instantly — regardless of location.

But Sombo’s mission goes beyond connections. We’re building a community where skills are valued, professionalism is rewarded, and economic growth is driven from the ground up. Every booking, every job completed, and every satisfied client represents another step toward a stronger, more connected Africa.

Sombo is more than an app — it’s a movement empowering talent, creating jobs, and redefining the future of work across the continent.

Top Signs Your Car Needs Immediate Attention

Your car speaks — you just need to listen. Ignoring small issues today can lead to costly repairs tomorrow. Here are key signs that mean it’s time to call a trusted mechanic on Sombo right away.

  1. Unusual Noises: Grinding, squealing, or knocking sounds often signal brake, engine, or suspension problems that should be checked immediately.

  2. Warning Lights:

    If your dashboard lights up — especially the check engine or oil light — don’t ignore it. It’s your car’s way of saying something’s wrong.


  3. Leaks or Smoke:

    Any fluid leaks or visible smoke are major red flags. Pull over safely and seek professional help fast.


  4. Difficulty Starting or Stalling

    If your car struggles to start, stalls unexpectedly, or loses power, it could indicate a battery, fuel, or engine issue.


  5. Strange Vibrations or Pulling: If your steering wheel shakes or your car pulls to one side, there could be alignment or tire problems that need urgent attention.

  6. Taking quick action keeps you safe and saves money in the long run. With Sombo, finding a verified mechanic is simple — so your car gets the care it deserves, anytime, anywhere.
