Hello, this is just advice. In African countries, important documents are usually a national ID and election ID, or a letter of identification from local government authorities. However, we face difficulties due to the documents you require for address verification, considering that many people, especially young people, move frequently depending on their jobs. Today is my 8th day struggling to verify, and it keeps failing. In our countries, the most important thing is identity. Now you are making it difficult for us to work with you because the problem comes with address verification. Change this because it prevents people from trading."
