The WikiEducator User Page Expo ("UPE" to its friends) is an ongoing event to
acknowledge WikiEducator user pages that are particularly informative,
innovative, visually appealing, or otherwise just plain clever.
We are very happy to announce that Ibrahim Oyekanmi, the first from Nigeria,
is the WikiEducator User Page Expo winner for March 2013. Let's learn more
about him.
Ibrahim Kolawole Oyekanmi (popularly known as "Mallamibro" to friends) is the
Principal IT Lecture in his own company, the Mallamibro ICT Academy in Kano,
Nigeria.
He has taught at different levels from Nursery and primary schools to
Polytechnic. He is a member of IEEE and the Computer Science Teachers'
Association. Currently he is teaching computer application packages
ranging from the Microsoft Suite (2003 & 2007) in his Computer
Training Academy in Kano, Nigeria. As an information technology
educator, he dreams of to see as many people as possible become Computer
literate. To achieve his dream, he puts his belief into practice
through Wikieducator, which he re-affirms is one way of "training the
trainers". As a contribution to community, he runs a local NGO "Youth
Progressive Peace & Justice Forum" (YPPJF) to offer occupational
skills to youths in his locality. This NGO organizes a quarterly
Tuition-free training programme in which 25 participants are trained in
basic computer appreciation skills like Word-processing, Desktop
Publishing, Basic Data management and Graphic Design. Participants also
participate in lectures on basic human rights, what they are and how to
protect them. They have trained over 400 youths from various programmes
of the YPPJF. There is yet another feather to his cap, being E-Mentor
for "Teachers-Without-Border's Certificate of Teaching Mastery Program".
Mallamibro feels that he is at his best when involved with a class that
is actively involved in activities. He reflects, "...Knowledge
acquisition and sharing is one big joy of life, who would wish for life
without knowledge?..."
Please join us in congratulating the very talented Ibrahim Oyekanmi.
Warm wishes,
Dr. Nellie Deutsch and Ramesh Sharma
