Who said #Warri girls/women are not interested in tech? They are! Warri has one of the highest population of female tech enthusiasts in Africa. Here👇is proof. This pregnant woman is prepared to climb a 3-storey building every day for the next 40 days just to learn how to code.🙌

[Warri Girls Code @warrigirlscode]

But the pregnant lady (Mrs. Alero Onovwakpokohwo) isn't the only married woman who signed up for #WarriGirlsCode there are other women. Here👇 is a nursing mother (Mrs. Tejiri Efurhievwe) who is also prepared to learn how to code. 🔥
