The State Chairman of NYCN, Surveyor Emeka Obi, who disclosed this in a press conference on Wednesday, explained that he has donated a total of twenty desktop computer sets for the programme to commence earnestly.

According to him, the computer sets would be unveiled by NYCN on Friday, the 19th of August, 2022, and the major target for the initiative would be Anambra youths especially those at the communities who wish to acquire ICT knowledge but for one reason or the other were unable to.

“It is my delight to inform you that we are ready to commence our ICT drive with the unveiling of the 20 sets of desktop computers which I donated to the Council. The computers and their components have been procured and we have also inaugurated the Directorate of ICT to champion this cause," he noted.


He, however, noted that the Council was facing a logistics challenge and appealed to spirited individuals, groups, corporate agencies, philanthropists and politicians to assist them in procure an official bus.

" This will go a long way in assisting us move the ICT equipment and personnel to the training centres across the state. We also have our vehicle that needs serious maintenance and the Council will also appreciate any assistance that will enable us repair it for smooth operation,” Obi added.
