Igbo belongs in the future of AI. And we're taking that message straight to the people building it! 🔥
TokataHQ is at VapiCon 2026 in San Francisco @vapicon2026 , engaging directly with the founders, researchers, and tech executives shaping the future of voice AI.
Our mission: Get Igbo onto the product roadmaps of the world's leading technology companies.
We're not just raising awareness. We're asking the tough questions.
Why is a language spoken by over 30 million people still missing from automatic captions, speech recognition, and voice assistants?
How do companies decide which languages to support? What's holding Igbo back? And what will it take to change that?
We're sitting down with founders, learning how these decisions are made, building relationships, and gathering the technical and economic insights to make a stronger case for Igbo.
Because our language deserves more than recognition. It deserves to work in the technology our children will grow up using. ❤️
This is what #PutIgboInTech looks like in action. Not just calling for change, but doing the work to make it happen.
And now, we need YOU in this conversation!
On November 21, TokataHQ is bringing creators, researchers, and technology leaders together for Igbo in the Digital Age, a FREE virtual roundtable.
📅 Saturday, November 21, 2026
🕘 9 AM PT | 12 PM EST | 5 PM GMT | 6 PM WAT
Don't just watch the movement. Be part of it! Register today, invite your friends, and help us show the tech industry that Igbo matters.

Proud to have supported the Igbo Women Assembly’s UN Mother Tongue Day celebration. Preserving and promoting our beautiful Igbo language is a duty I hold dear. Thank you to the organizing committee for a vibrant and impactful event. Ndi Igbo, let’s keep our mother tongue alive!
An Igbo woman, Onyeka Oshionwu, is the new Lord Mayor of Göttingen, Germany!
She won the election with thousands of votes.
Born and raised in Germany, Onyeka has not lost touch with her Igbo roots. Both her first name and surname are Igbo!
Yet, you will find people whose parents are both Igbo, who grew up in Ala Igbo, but bear names like Stanley Cup and Jaden Pearls.
Sometimes, I wonder: What exactly makes us lose touch with our own identity?
Congratulations, Onyeka! Ndị Igbo are proud of you! ❤️
🇮🇱 OUTRAGEOUS! Arab lawmakers reportedly walked out of Israel's parliament right before the national anthem, Hatikvah, began playing. Only Mansour Abbas remained.
These politicians were elected to Israel's parliament, enjoy the freedoms of Israeli democracy, and represent citizens of the Jewish state. Yet they couldn't even stay in the room for its national anthem! What a shame.
In Nigeria, okpa is a traditional delicacy mostly sold on the streets. Meet a woman who has been selling okpa for over twenty years. Despite the gruelling journey, Victoria has put her four children through school.

We have started working on the interior of the ISEE Headquarters in Enugu.
This is one of the libraries we are creating. Students will be able to reserve a study space and come in daily to read, research, and learn using both physical and electronic books with high speed free Internet access.
Everything will be completely free.
The environment is serene, secure, and designed to encourage learning. Over time, we hope to operate the centre 24/7, giving students access to a conducive learning environment at any hour.
Our goal is simple: to ensure that no child is denied the opportunity to learn because they lack access to books or a suitable place to study.
In Barbados, we paid our respects to the legendary Igbo writer and abolitionist, Olaudah Equiano. In his celebrated autobiography from the 1700s, Equiano described the heartbreaking moment he arrived at the port of Bridgetown on a slave ship.
"Soon after we landed... We were conducted immediately to the merchant's yard, where we were all pent up together, like so many sheep in a fold, without regard to sex or age."
