Social media has helped us break information and education barrier in rural communities in #Nigeria.
We have been able to get funding, volunteers & our participants have been accepted into prestigious global programs through social media and #edtech
Thanks for the inspiration. https://t.co/MkwunxQzve
A mini working space at our #makerspace in Afon, Kwara State, Nigeria.
Feel the creative energy in motion.
Fill your mind with curious inventions.
Let out your genius, meet with other creatives.
Allow your hands to make, to break, to mold, to fix, to inspire.
In our #trashtotoy project, our participants opened up the #makerspace this morning with the led-blinking exercise.
The arduino class will take a new direction from here.
Thanks to @IDEAStweetsUs for supporting the empowering of grassroots creativity.
Let's do more 🎉 #Nigeria
"Whatever sparkle you desire, Education can get you beyond it"
I agree!
It's getting me somewhere already.

New arrivals into our #makerspace
The happiness that participants are free to create till tired, is now possible.
Turning trash to moving, flying, sounding items.
The joy of innovative products and services that will come out of this is amazing.

Do you remember when you joined Twitter? We do!
Until celebrating creative prowess of children and youth becomes a norm, we won't rest.
Until Education becomes fun, relevant and exciting, we will keep on keeping on.
We celebrate you for being with us!
#MyTwitterAnniversary
We allowed him to watch a video on the #internet -- self learning.
He got inspired, he couldn't keep calm.
Today, he got out a bag, yes -- a bag that fully fit a laptop.
The bag was made with $0.
That's right.!
We have freely allowed him to use what resources he needs.
We allowed him to use the 'trash clothes'.
We left the sewing machine at the #makerspace in his hands for 2 hours 30 minutes.
Prikkle Academy Says, #education Means Solutions.
Here is Jamiu.
We know that he is creative.
We have seen his #innovative mind.
The tools are available, the inspiration is available.
