Your NYSC posting letter says Ondo, and maybe you're wondering what this year has in store for you. While your friends might be talking about their postings to Lagos or Abuja, you're about to discover something they don't know yet: Ondo could be where your success story begins.
Let me share something that will interest you.
Kindly meet Mr. Bamigboye Biodun.
When he came to Ondo as a corps member, he made a decision that changed his life. Instead of just focusing on his primary assignment and CDS, he chose to learn tech skills. Today, he has earned over 50 million naira on Upwork alone, working with clients from around the world. The best part? He did this right from Ondo.
The Case for Tech: Why Now? Why You?
Let’s start with the facts. The tech industry in Nigeria is booming, contributing over $45 billion to the GDP in 2023 and employing thousands of skilled professionals globally. Remote work opportunities are rising, with international companies looking for talents they can trust. Yet, many graduates remain trapped in cycles of uncertainty, earning modest stipends while struggling to transition to meaningful careers.
The CIT program bridges that gap, providing:
In-demand tech skills like coding, data analysis, UI/UX design, and graphic design.
Real-world project exposure, enabling participants to build portfolios that attract global clients.
Career acceleration through job placement support, freelancing guidance, and industry mentorship.
This isn’t just a training program; it’s a revolution for graduates looking to thrive in a tech-driven world.
A quick analysis shows the incredible return on investment this program offers. With an entry cost of just 10,000 to 15,000 naira per month—payable in arrears—graduates can transition into earning potential of $2,000 to $5,000 monthly within six months to a year. Consider this: A participant who dedicates themselves to freelancing or remote work post-program could earn in dollars, breaking free from the constraints of the local economy.
For a monthly investment equivalent to a few meals, the payoff isn’t just financial; it’s transformative. You’re not merely learning; you’re building a life of independence and possibilities.
Ondo City is the perfect breeding ground for this initiative. With thousands of corps members posted annually, the potential is vast. Yet, many feel isolated from global opportunities. CIT flips the narrative, proving that your location doesn’t limit your success—your mindset does.
Mr. Bamigboye’s success story started here, in this very city. From hackathon competitions to building a company generating millions, his journey is living proof that Ondo can birth world-class tech talents. And now, it’s your turn to write your story.

The Tech World Is Bigger Than You Think
Many people hear "tech" and think it's all about coding and complex mathematics. That's not true. The tech world is like a big marketplace with different shops. Just as you can choose to sell clothes, shoes, or food in a regular market, in tech, you can choose your own path.
Think about what you enjoy doing. Do you like creating things that catch people's eyes? Our Graphics Design track might be for you. Are you good with words and enjoy explaining things to others? Content Creation could be your path. Do you enjoy solving puzzles and finding patterns? Data Analysis might be calling you. The beautiful thing is, you don't need to have any previous experience - just the willingness to learn.
Why This Matters Now
Companies are changing how they work. They're looking for people who understand the digital world. They need professionals who can help them reach customers online, create appealing designs, manage their projects, analyze their data, and build their online presence. The best part? These companies don't care where you live - they care about what you can do.
How Our Program Works
We've made this program with you in mind. We know you have your primary assignment, so we've structured the training to fit into your schedule. The payment? We've handled that too. You only pay between 10,000 to 15,000 naira monthly, and here's the best part - you only start paying after you've started earning.
In six months, you could go from being a complete beginner to someone who can work with clients worldwide. We don't just teach you the skills; we show you how to find work, how to deal with clients, and how to build a successful career.
The Real Opportunity
Think about this: while some of your fellow corps members will spend their service year just getting by on their allowance, you could be building skills that can earn you $2,000 to $5,000 monthly. That's not a dream - we've seen it happen over and over with our students.
What This Program Gives You
Beyond the skills, you get something more valuable - options. You can choose to work for companies abroad while living in Nigeria. You can decide to start your own business. You can work with clients from different countries. The skills you learn here open doors that many don't even know exist.
A Word About Success
Success in tech isn't about where you start - it's about how dedicated you are to learning and growing. We've seen people from different backgrounds, with no prior tech experience, transform their lives through this program. Some now work with international companies, others run successful freelance businesses, and many have started their own tech companies.
A new batch of corps members will arrive in Ondo West on December 17, 2024. This could be you. But more importantly, this could be the day you look back on as the day your life changed. The day you decided to do something different with your service year.
Take That First Step
The tech industry isn't waiting. Every day you wait is an opportunity missed. Join our Corps Members in Tech program and turn your service year into the foundation of a global career.
Don't just serve and go home with stories. Build skills that can take you anywhere in the world. Your journey to tech success can start right here in Ondo.
The future is digital, and that future can start during your service year. Make the choice today.
