In a powerful display of purpose beyond profit, Descasio Limited, a leading technology solutions provider, committed to helping organisations in Africa scale with technology; is taking bold steps to future-proof the next generation, by investing in young girls.
In partnership with HOH | TechUnlock, an innovation-driven digital skills accelerator.
Descasio is launching an intensive 6-weeks in-person training program for 20-25 young girls in Lagos, focused on data analysis, one of the most in-demand tech skills in today’s global economy.
The training, set to kick off in August 2025 on site at the HOH Training Facility in Ajah, Lagos, includes:
- A 3-month structured mentorship program
- Globally recognized certification
- A real-world capstone project
- Direct pathways to internships and job placement
This ensures that participants don’t just learn tech, they live it.
“At Descasio, our commitment has always been about looking forward; and building the infrastructure, skills, and people Africa needs for a digital tomorrow. This initiative isn’t just about skills; it’s about access, inclusion, and rewriting the story of who gets to build our future,” stated Odafe Michaal Ugbewanko, HOD Human Resource, Descasio Limited.
In a world where women and girls remain underrepresented in technology, this program is a clear signal toward equitable opportunity and long-term inclusion.
Participants will be selected based on their curiosity, passion, and potential to become the next generation of data analysts, scientists or even tech founders. The curriculum will be led by industry professionals and supported by HOH TechUnlock’s expansive mentor network and ecosystem.
“We believe young African girls deserve a seat at the tech table, not later, but now. This partnership with Descasio is proof that real impact happens when vision meets action,”
stated David Ogebe, Founder, HOH TechUnlock.
With Nigeria’s youth population expected to lead Africa’s workforce by 2030, initiatives like this are not just timely, they are strategic investments in national development and global competitiveness.
“Diversity in tech starts with intentional pipelines. By giving young girls practical skills and access to real-world opportunities, we’re creating future-ready talent that reflects the richness of our society,”
— Umama David-Ogede, Head of Human Resources Manager, Descasio Limited.
“This initiative is deeply aligned with our brand’s forward-thinking DNA. We’re not just solving for today’s tech needs, we’re shaping tomorrow’s possibilities by investing in the voices and innovators of the future,”
- Nehita Fashe, Director of Sales, Descasio Limited.
As training begins in August, all eyes will be on these 25 young girls, not as beneficiaries, but as trailblazers of a new era.
