dc.descriptionUltimately, this book is a call to action. It challenges every stakeholder to fundamentally rethink IT education - not as an isolated subject confined to the classroom, but as an uncompromising national priority essential for youth empowerment, sustainable employability, ground-breaking innovation, and global competitiveness. If Nigeria is to truly thrive and claim its rightful place in the 21st century, its citizens must be digitally literate, its schools must be digitally equipped, and its national vision must be unequivocally digitally driven. May the insights contained within these pages ignite serious conversations, inspire bold innovations, and catalyse the practical steps necessary to forge a resilient, inclusive, and globally relevant IT education system across our beloved nation."Nigeria has the minds. Nigeria has the youth. What we need now is the system that empowers them to compete and to create in the digital world."
