Jigawa State took a big step in digital education on Tuesday by launching a digital literacy boot camp for 1,050 pupils.

This effort is part of a nationwide push to improve access to digital skills among young learners.

The boot camp aims to empower pupils with essential knowledge to thrive in a digital world.

The bootcamp, held in Hadejia town, was officially opened by Jigawa State Governor Umar Namadi. He emphasised the importance of equipping children early with digital skills to bridge the digital divide.

“This program is a transformative opportunity to prepare our young generation for a future where digital competence will be key,” the governor said during the launch event.

The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) organised the training session as part of the agency’s broader Digital Literacy for All (DL4ALL) initiative.

NITDA has partnered with the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) to deploy corps members as trainers across 12 states, including Jigawa, to teach basic digital skills and boost digital literacy nationwide.

The bootcamp will run from July 22 to August 1, 2025, and will deliver practical ICT training to the participating pupils.

The program’s design reflects Nigeria’s larger goals to ensure 70% digital literacy by 2027 and prepare millions of youths with the skills needed to participate in an increasingly tech-driven economy.

Joining the training in Jigawa offers pupils hands-on experience with technology, including basic computer use, internet navigation, and digital safety.

NITDA highlights that such initiatives are crucial as Nigeria’s workforce faces a growing demand for skilled digital workers estimated at nearly 28 million by 2030.

The digital literacy bootcamp in Jigawa embodies an expanding movement to provide young Nigerians with the tools to navigate and succeed in the digital age.

With active government and agency support, this marks a hopeful push to build stronger digital foundations from the grassroots.
