X3M Ideas has equipped students in Lagos State with tech skills through its X3M Tech initiative.

The Group Chief Executive Officer of X3M Ideas, Mr Steve Babaeko, said the initiative would help shape the future of young generations and put them in the right place.

 According to Babaeko, phase two of the X3M Tech training programme, which was held at Muritala Ajadi Animashaun Community Senior Grammar School, Surulere, Lagos, was designed to empower young minds with the essential tools, knowledge, and cutting-edge technological skills required to thrive in the rapidly evolving digital landscape.

“At X3M Ideas, we have always believed in the potential of the youth and the critical role they play in driving the future. For the past 12 years, we have been privileged to partner with the Lagos State Government in its pursuit of quality education. Through this partnership, we have renovated schools and handed them over, ensuring that students across the state have access to conducive learning environments.

“Today is significant as we bring our commitment to youth empowerment to Surulere for the first time. We believe every community has hidden potential, and we see it in the bright minds of the students here,” he added.

The X3M Ideas boss applauded the Lagos State Government for its role in prioritising education and equipping students with the required equipment to upskill.

Babaeko said, “We must also take a moment to appreciate His Excellency, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, for his visionary leadership and future-forward education policy. Under his administration, the Lagos State Government has continued to prioritise initiatives that equip our youth with the skills they need to thrive in a rapidly changing world. We are honoured to align with this vision, and today’s programme is a small but significant step towards realising that shared goal.”

While congratulating the principal, staff, and students of Murtala Ajadi Animashaun Community Senior Grammar School, he pointed out that their dedication, resilience, and commitment helped X3M and its partner on the project to achieve the feat.

  “This training has opened doors to the world of technology, a world where possibilities are endless. The skills you have acquired are not just tools for today but keys to unlocking the future. Encouraging the students to use the skills they acquire to benefit not only themselves but also the community at large,” he added.

 The Commissioner of Education, Lagos State, Mr Jamiu Ali-Balogun, who represented the governor at the event, commended Babaeko and his team for their forward-looking initiative.

 He urged other corporate entities not to shy away from embarking on CSR activities that could bring positive changes to society.

  He stated that the government needs the support of individuals and organizations to bring the required development to the people.

 On his part, the Principal of Muritala Ajadi Animashaun Community Senior Grammar School, Michael Ladejebi, said, “This partnership is invaluable for our students,” he said. “The skills they acquire through this program will not only enhance their education but also prepare them for future opportunities in a rapidly changing world.”
