Kwara State Government on Friday flagged off the distribution of about two thousand computers to public senior secondary schools in the state to equip teachers and students with digital literacy skills.
At least, 70 public schools cutting across the 16 Local Governments of the state will receive 25 gadgets apiece in the first phase of the educational intervention.
The project is being implemented by the State Adolescent Girls Initiative for Learning and Employment (AGILE) project under the Ministry of Education and Human Capital Development.
Performing the flag-off in Ilorin, the state capital, Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq, said digital literacy is no longer a luxury but a necessity in today’s global economy, noting that education remains the bedrock of sustainable development.
