Speaking at the Prize Presentation Ceremony, a Director at Teach Ours, Timi Angel Oromoni, commended the students for their perseverance in completing the courses, noting that many people had signed up for the free courses but were yet to complete them.

She said, “This is one of many initiatives to come. We offer over 1,300 courses in professional development and over 150 language courses. We started this initiative to get people to study and promote online education further by offering incentives for people to develop themselves. This was done in partnership with our partner, BA Education.

“Looking at our Nigerian participants, with the way things are going in the area of insecurity and also increased prices, especially in transportation, we decided to launch this initiative such that people can learn from the comfort of their homes for free. All that is needed is a device and internet connectivity.”

Oromoni added that Teach Ours was working to partner with organizations that can hire students upon completion of the courses.

Nollywood actress, Juliet Ibrahim, while speaking at the event, lauded Teach Ours for the initiative, while describing it as

She said, “It’s not every day you see someone that is willing to invest in people and give gifts. You have to be able to lead people to find their way and purpose in life, and that can only be achieved through education, and this is what Teach Ours is doing. Kudos to the team.”

Ibrahim encouraged the students to take advantage of every opportunity in life and make the best use of it, emphasizing that education is key.
