This program, focused on essential digital skills such as Artificial Intelligence, Cybersecurity, Digital Literacy, and Cloud Computing, aims to equip school leavers and job seekers with the necessary tools for employment or entrepreneurship.
With over eight hundred and thirty-two participants registered, this initiative underscores Hon. Odidiomo’s commitment to fostering economic growth and opportunity within his constituency.
Central to the success of this endeavor is the ICT Hub established by Hon. Odidiomo, which serves as a hub for digital literacy classes and other skill-building activities.
Through these centers, participants will have access to invaluable resources and guidance, paving the way for a brighter future in the digital age.

Through his pragmatic leadership and unwavering commitment to his constituents, he continues to make a meaningful difference in the lives of those he serves, both locally and nationally.
