The President of CECAD, Dr. Bayero Agabi,\u00a0 opined that while telecoms operators “are the engine rooms for digital liberalisation, Globacom stands out in its support for women in ICT. The company recognises that women are critical to the digital development the nation craves for and goes ahead to support women in the industry”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Presenting the award to Globacom, President, Women Arise for Change Initiative, Dr. Joe Odumakin said that “there is no way anyone can deny the fact that in terms of data, Globacom has broken the ceiling and the company is not only about talk, it has done so much in terms of investment, empowerment and development of women enterprise in Nigeria and so this award is well deserved”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Receiving the award on behalf of Globacom, Kemi Fadipe, Acting Head of Unit, Call Centre, said, “We must acknowledge the efforts of individuals and corporate bodies in Nigeria who over the years have shown support for the cause of women empowerment. Nigeria\u2019s digital transformation leader, Globacom, numbers highly on this list of progressive companies which is silently contributing their quota to empowering Nigerian women”.<\/span><\/p>\n

Globacom, she observed, “believes that women empowerment is a necessary step if a country is to overcome the obstacles associated with poverty and development and one way to empower women is to bring innovative ICT products and services within the reach of all regardless of age, tribe or gender. Globacom since inception has demonstrated that it is committed to liberalising access to telecom services by making them affordable to all classes of Nigerians”.<\/span><\/p>
