“It has always been my lifetime dream to be
literate in computing, since this will in no small way boost my chances of
gaining employment after graduation, and enable me to be at par with recent
developments in the world.”
Olubumi Constant-Pratt, senior in Financial Services at IPAM, University of
Sierra Leone
“I am one of the unfortunate amputees who suffered
innocently an everlasting deformity and molestation in the…civil war. With
such an appalling plight, people thought the only available job for such
victims was ‘street begging’. In a bid to deny such job limitation, I
resolved to complete my formal education. However, I am still among the
untold number of unemployed youth; I have attended several interviews, but
to no avail, the reason being I lack computer literacy, though I have done a
lot of theoretical aspects in college.”
Felix Conteh, B.A. with Honors in Library, Information and Communication
Studies (Information Science), Fourah Bay College.
