At the closing ceremony, First Lady Oluremi Tinubu underscored the significance of this training, reiterating its vital role in bridging the digital divide. She articulated a powerful message about digital literacy as a transformative force — equipping women with essential ICT skills not only opens new avenues for personal and professional growth but also empowers them to make substantial contributions to Nigeria’s burgeoning digital economy.
Their collaboration exemplifies how influential leadership can catalyse impactful change. By merging Tinubu’s advocacy with NITDA’s technical prowess, the programme raises awareness of the digital gender gap, while simultaneously working to close it. This partnership illustrates how strategic alliances can dismantle barriers historically inhibiting women from accessing technology education, thereby creating opportunities for them to thrive in our rapidly evolving digital landscape.
The effectiveness of this programme underlines the significance of collaborative leadership between government agencies and public figures. By harnessing the influence of the First Lady’s office alongside NITDA’s technical expertise, this initiative serves as a blueprint for fostering similar programmes throughout Nigeria. The outcomes achieved can inspire state and federal institutions to pursue strategic initiatives that bolster gender equity, economic empowerment, and educational advancement.
As First Lady Senator Oluremi Tinubu champions women’s inclusion in technology, it is imperative for other stakeholders — including both governmental and private entities — to join forces in expanding these efforts, ensuring digital education is accessible to an even larger audience of women across Nigeria.
