Saturday, July (c) 'Gbenga Sesan: Nigeria's Information Technology Youth Ambassador The Future of NIGERIA Refocusing Youth Energy for National Development through Information Technology presented by ‘Gbenga Sesan Nigeria’s Information Technology Youth Ambassador at the IEEE Nigeria Section Meeting University of Ibadan, July 13, 2002

Saturday, July (c) 'Gbenga Sesan: Nigeria's Information Technology Youth Ambassador Nigeria Today Nigeria is the most populous black nation on earth and the origin of some of the world's best, but the vessel of the nation appears to be anchored at a state of rest and our best is yet to be expressed within our borders. It thus becomes a deep-seated concern for any patriotic citizen of our motherland that the supposed giant of Africa has not taken her rightful place amongst the nations. We believe its high time external and internal forces began acting on the vessel of the nation lest we all drown. Even if we have to walk slowly, we must neither walk backwards nor stand still.

Saturday, July (c) 'Gbenga Sesan: Nigeria's Information Technology Youth Ambassador The Future of Nigeria I see a new Nigeria emerging, one that will be built on the labours of our heroes past, hewn out of the debris of the present waste and engineered by the strength of the future leaders: the youth. These young men and women will adopt Information Technology for the purpose of personal development, nation building, regional cooperation and global participation. They may be unknown today, but in the secrecy of their abode, they master the tool that will change their lives and that of their nation. They're building the nation’s tomorrow today.

Saturday, July (c) 'Gbenga Sesan: Nigeria's Information Technology Youth Ambassador What’s my business ?  We will keep complaining and may remain “looked down upon” if no one cares.  Young people are the link between today and tomorrow - the ones who should decide tomorrow’s fate  The young people of Nigeria must rise to the challenge of weaving the New Nigeria, the Nigeria of our collective dreams. For how long do we complain?  A wise man will leave an inheritance for his children’s children: If you don’t care, will your kids grow up experiencing the same things you hated seeing?  The worth of life is measured by donation and not duration

Saturday, July (c) 'Gbenga Sesan: Nigeria's Information Technology Youth Ambassador  What do you want to do in life? The whole world will stand aside for a man who knows where he’s going…  How does Information Technology affect your chosen career path?  Learn IT! Take advantage of online resources, free information, magazines. MIT Open Coursewarehttp://web.mit.edu/ocw/  Use IT for greater impact: Domestic, Career, etc  Be mindful of your contributions to the nation’s development and recognize your role as a global citizen  There’s something called Social Responsibility: Give back to society in your own way… Using IT for Nation Building
