Kwara Senator Ashiru Empowers 60 Youths with ICT Training

On Wednesday, Senator Lola Ashiru, the Deputy Senate Leader representing Kwara South, empowered 60 youths by distributing computers and conducting training in information and communication technology (ICT). This initiative, part of Ashiru's ongoing empowerment program, took place across seven local government areas and coincided with the Ramadan period, providing meals for participants.

The training, which is the fifth series since Ashiru assumed office, aimed to equip youths with digital skills to leverage technology for business growth. The beneficiaries included students, artisans, and small business owners from various political parties.

Additionally, laptops were provided to participants, along with transport allowances for ease of return. The program is designed to enhance socio-economic development in the district and improve digital literacy and business management among small-scale entrepreneurs.

Beneficiaries expressed gratitude for the initiative, noting its potential to significantly boost their business capabilities and digital skills.
