According to Obinna Ekwonwa, chief executive officer of Weco Systems International, “ Weco Systems International’s commitment towards capacity development and nation building is unwavering and this has made the donations to selected primary schools in remote areas of Lagos and Anambra state necessary, we have discovered that the pupils and students in remote areas seem to be left behind in the area of ICT development as they hardly have access to these ICT equipment, we therefore decided to consider the students at the grassroots in order give every child an opportunity to develop and globally compete with their counter parts in this digital age”.

He further reiterated that Mr. Uchenna Obidike loved to encourage and empower young people especially the less privileged by investing in their lives to make a difference in Nigeria.
