Chief operating officer of Rack Centre, Ezekiel Egboye, expressed his enthusiasm about this CSR collaboration. He highlighted that this partnership seeks to empower young individuals to become the next generation of tech-savvy professionals, well-prepared to excel in the burgeoning digital economy.

She affirmed their commitment to helping young people acquire the skills essential for success in the digital age, characterising this training as a valuable opportunity for skill acquisition and practical experience.
