Seyi-Ojo Anjolaoluwa |
Seyi-Ojo Anjolaoluwa, a JSS 1 pupil of Valencia College in Ibadan, Oyo State, has emerged as the youngest Nigerian Microsoft Certified Professional and one of the youngest people in the world to attain such feat. He has now joined the league of world’s set of young Microsoft certified professionals, including Lavinashree, an eight-year-old Indian, and two Pakistanis, named Arfa and Thobani.
Microsoft Certified Professional is an internationally recognised certification programme provided by Microsoft cooperation. The certification is tailored towards building skills on Microsoft business solutions, focusing on client-end operating systems such as windows XP, Vista, Windows7 among others.
Interestingly rather than pursue a career in information technology, he said his aspiration was to become a medical doctor. His mission in life is to make his school and country proud.
The Head of Training for ITS, an Ibadan-based IT company in charge of the ICT section of Valencia College, Mr. Oresanya Joshua, commended the efforts of Anjolaoluwa and the other five pupils, saying they should be celebrated.
“The kids deserve to be celebrated,” he said.
