About Joshua Chiefo-Ejiofobiri
Founder of TechPlug IT | Improved Access to Quality Information Technology Education
Joshua Chiefo-Ejiofobiri is a young changemaker from Nigeria who is increasing access to high-quality Information Technology (IT) and STEM education for young people in Nigeria. Joshua believes that the Tech space should be inclusive irrespective of social-economic background. However, contrary to his belief, there have been unequal distributions in the quality of IT/STEM education in Nigeria's primary and secondary education system.
In response to this problem, Joshua is working with schools, community centres, expert trainers and funding corporate partners to overturn the situation for young people from less privileged backgrounds by providing them with free to low-cost high-quality Information Technology education bootcamps, trainings, learning resources, and a network where they can access opportunities after gaining the required skills. His mission is to bridge the digital divide and equip the next generation with essential technical skills and knowledge that are in high demand in today's rapidly evolving job market.
