Over 100 students from Obafemi Awolowo University in Ile-Ife, Osun State, have completed a free photography training program sponsored by mobile phone manufacturer itel.

The two-day event on the university’s campus offered participants valuable insights into mobile photography, demonstrating various techniques and skills for capturing high-quality images with their smartphones, which could be marketed to interested buyers.

Speaking at the opening session of the training, an official of itel Nigeria, Mojisola Abdullahi, explained that the initiative was designed to expose students to how they can take good, sellable pictures.

According to her, rather than wait for salaried jobs, with photography skills, the beneficiaries can take good pictures with their mobile phones and sell them to people.
She said, “We have a two-days campus activities in Obafemi Awolowo University, OAU. Day one is centered around empowering students, allowing them to make more use of their smartphones to take good pictures.

“This is also one of our ways of introducing the new Itel S24 to the students. All we are saying is you necessarily do not have to wait till you get a white-collar job. Even when you do, there are other ways you can make money.

“A typical example is one of these things we have here. One of the pictures that were taken that we just enlarged, you can sell these to your students, your lectures. They are beautiful, they are something people will pay for. So why wait till you are being given money?”
