TECH AWARD SCHOLARSHIP TO FOUR STUDENTS OF COMMUNITY COMPREHENSIVE SECONDARY SCHOOL, IKOT NSUNG IKONO.

From the 50 students who participated in the four-week Digital Literacy Project at Community Comprehensive
Secondary School, Ikot Usung Ikono, Akwa Ibom State, four emerged as the best-performing students at the end:
Etiyene James Umana, Goodluck Christopher Effiong, Success Ime Jackson and Esther Utibe Okon.

These four won a one month tech scholarship sponsored by LAskill and PedaAfrica Charity Foundation, which commenced on 3rd of August to 4th of September, 2026 at LaSkill Training Center.
This scholarship covered their mobility from Ikot Nsung Ikono to Idoro road, Uyo, and other logistics during the one month training period.

The basic knowledge of computer introduced to them during the Digital Literacy Project by PedaAfrica Foundation and her partners served as a solid foundation in the field of their choice of study in Information And Communication Technology (ICT), giving them further opportunity to build on what they had learned.

At the end of the one month scholarship training in Information and Communication Technology, Goodluck Christopher Effiong emerged as the best student among the four, and received a laptop from LAskill Training Center as part of the scholarship award to the best-performing student.
Certificate of Completion were also presented to them.

These were once children that had no idea about computer nor the technology world, children who initially couldn’t turn on a computer. This opportunity has provided them with the experience in technology, which has gone from something unfamiliar to exploring the digital world, with the aim to use the knowledge gathered in their world of learning, daily applications, opportunities that technology can open, and contribute meaningfully to the society.

We deeply appreciate the Executive Director of LAskill Training Center, Mr Izuoba Charles and the Executive Director of PedaAfrica Charity Foundation, Mrs Aniekan-Abasi John for providing this impactful opportunity.

We also appreciate Esitima Inieke for contributing to the impact of the Digital Literacy project by presenting a portrait to Etiyene James Umana (Overall Best student of the Digital Literacy project).

Thank you to everyone who supported this initiative.

We will continue to be committed to creating opportunities that put African children at the centre of quality education, and empowerment.

It is becoming more difficult to function effectively in today’s world without basic knowledge of digital applications. Many activities that were once done manually are now carried out through digital platforms.

As Digital knowledge is no longer merely an advantage but a basic necessity. Individuals who develop strong digital skills are better prepared to participate in today’s increasingly digital world.
