MY SPIRIT IS RESTING IN PEACE

Few persons who heard about my recent purported relocation to another country asked what happens to the millions of support Airtel Nigeria gave me. I made them to understand that the support wasn’t meant for me, those it is meant for are there and would be utilizing them.

Others cried out, “What of WHAIafrica Resource Centre and Creative Hub, who will be there to attend to their needs?” I told them that people are there.

My heart gladdens each day I watch WHAIafrica members and beneficiaries on the CCTV learning digital skills and utilizing other resources we have in the hub.

Yesterday, I watched Chidi, who doesn’t know how to touch a laptop before my trip, made a presentation via a projector after setting up all the devices himself.

This is not just for the summer holiday. Members are free to walk in and utilize the devices for learning including free WiFi for one year. They are also learning how to navigate the internet.

I watched the potential techies among them undergo programming language sessions. The WHAIafrica super beneficiaries, Genevieve Ikechukwu AND IG Chiemelie who started their tech life right from WHAIafrica Resource Centre, just like the present students, were the ones taking them on coding.

They are still students but already have a career and making money. I am so proud of them. I will tell their story of impact some other day. Check out how she started and making it from the slum, and motivating others like her https://fb.watch/f9fqQrSX_2/

Our grandfather volunteer, Somto Humphrey Akwuobi has been everything to WHAIafrica. And to all other volunteers doing the virtual work , Thank you so much. I appreciate every one of you.

My spirit is at peace and resting well each time I turn on the CCTV. Thanks to technology. Jisinu ike!
