The beneficiaries will be taken through coding, cyber security, and website development among others.

Already 1000 girls have been trained in the Savannah region and another 1000 girls are expected to be trained in the entire Northern Region. These 60 girls were selected from basic schools within the Saboba district.

The training forms part of the Girls-In-ICT programme being implemented by the Ministry of Communication and Digitization in collaboration with its agencies to bridge the gender gap in ICT in the country.

Mr. George Kitingyaab Bingrini encouraged the young girls to pay attention to their trainers in order for them to understand every detail about the training. He pledged that any of them who will progress to the Regional level and subsequently to the national competition will be sponsored to fly from Tamale to Accra and back for the national competition.

Mr. George Kitingyaab Bingrini was accompanied by the District Coordinating Director, Mr. Abdulai Haruna.
