Others are Al-fijr International School, Zaifat Secondary School, ECWA Aro Restoration School and Hameedah Secondary School, all based in Kano State. New World Secondary School, Aba, Abia State also get some of the computers.

Paradigm Initiative has over the years made a name for itself as a head in digital inclusion labors in the country and the giving of computer systems to schools is part of the organization’s plan.

Paradigm Initiative’s Digital Inclusion Program Manager, Tosin Abolaji, says that we just scaled our digital inclusion programme to schools and one of the things we find out is the shortage of computer systems for the training. We are in the course of identifying more schools that would gain from this program.

The organization is keen to civilizing livelihoods of young people by providing them with ICT-enabled support system and the contribution of the computers furthers the goal of the organization.
