In a heartwarming conclusion to a transformative two-week journey, House of Representatives member, Hon Adedeji Stanley Olajide, popularly known as Odidi Omo, has, once again, ignited the spirit of digital empowerment in Ibadan Northwest/Southwest Federal Constituency.
In partnership with the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), he facilitated the just-concluded ‘Digital Skills for Artisans’ programme, a beacon of hope for 40 local craftsmen and women in the Constituency.
The mission was aimed at equipping these artisans with essential digital skills that would not only help them scale their businesses but also keep them relevant in an ever-evolving world.
Throughout the intensive training, these artisans immersed themselves in a digital landscape previously uncharted.
Their unwavering dedication and boundless enthusiasm lit up the NUJ Press Centre in Iyaganku Quarters. It was more than just a training but a journey of transformation and empowerment.
And what a journey without a heartfelt reward at the end?
In a moment of celebration and gratitude, each participant received a brand-new laptop, a tool that would serve as a gateway to their digital future. Cash gifts were also provided to support their businesses, giving them the boost they needed to thrive in the digital age.
But this program is more than just a training; it’s a vision for the future. Rep. Adedeji Stanley Olajide and his team are on a mission to empower at least 1,000 individuals every year with the right digital skills. It’s about creating opportunities, fostering growth, and building a community that thrives in the digital era.
