Meet Precious Akhilorme, YandyTech’s Community Manager!

Precious is a Statistics graduate from the Federal University of Technology, Minna.

She has explored different paths, from UI/UX design to community management and
programme development. Along the way, she discovered her passion for bringing
people together and creating spaces where they can learn, connect, and grow.

She is particularly passionate about youth empowerment, women’s advancement,
and digital inclusion. For Precious, it is not just about building communities; it is about
helping people find the knowledge, connections, and opportunities they need to
move forward.

Through her work, she continues to turn ideas into meaningful experiences that
create value for others. And as a result of this, she has contributed heavily to the
growth of our community by providing them with links to decent opportunities and also creating opportunities for capacity building amongst many other KPIs she has hit since her onboarding to the YandyTech team.

Eight years. Countless stories. One shared vision.

Every girl deserves the opportunity to learn, grow, discover her potential, and decide what her future looks like. Yet, for many girls, barriers such as child marriage and unequal access to opportunities continue to stand in the way.

This International Day of the Girl Child, under the theme “End Child Marriage and Invest in Girls’ Rights”, we are reminded that empowering girls requires more than words. It requires action, access, and sustained investment in their potential.

At YandyTech, we believe that when girls have access to digital skills, knowledge, mentorship, and opportunities to innovate, they are better equipped to shape their futures and contribute meaningfully to their communities.

Our commitment to inclusive innovation means working towards a future where every girl has the opportunity to learn, lead, create, and thrive.

Eight years ago, we dared to imagine a future where technology could unlock opportunities, empower young people, and transform communities. Today, that vision is a story of impact, resilience, and growth.

What began as a simple belief has grown into eight years of learning, innovation, and community-driven change.

From equipping young people with digital skills to creating pathways in employability, civic engagement, peacebuilding, and climate action, our journey has always been about one thing: turning possibilities into real opportunities for people and communities.

As we celebrate 8 years of YandyTech Community, we are grateful for the lives we’ve touched, the communities we’ve grown with, and everyone who has helped shape our story.

Eight years of ideas turned into action, challenges turned into opportunities, and communities empowered to thrive.

And the exciting part? We’re just getting started!

Watch this space!

Some stories began before independence.
Some were born along the way.
And some are being written right now.

At 66, Nigeria is not simply looking back at where we have been. We are standing at the intersection of everything we have inherited and everything we have the power to create.

The young innovator building something from a simple idea.
The community choosing to collaborate.
The person using technology to open a door for someone else.
The voices refusing to be left out of the conversation.
These may seem like small moments, but nations are built through moments like these.

At YandyTech, we believe the future of Nigeria is not a distant destination. It is something we build—one idea, one connection, one community at a time.

So today, we celebrate not only how far Nigeria has come, but the possibilities that lie ahead.

66 years of Nigeria Independence.
A story still unfolding.
A future still ours to build.

Happy Independence Day, Nigeria.

We are scaling Muryanmu.

YandyTech Community is pleased to announce Muryanmu (Our Voice) V2.0, a nine-month civic technology initiative supporting access to trusted and understandable civic and electoral information ahead of Nigeria’s 2027 General Election.

With support from CIVICUS: World Alliance for Citizen Participation through the Digital Democracy Initiative (DDI), the project will focus on Kaduna, Kano and Katsina, strengthening MurBot, multilingual access, electoral information tools and community outreach.

Our goal is simple: help citizens, especially young and first-time voters, find, understand and verify civic information more easily.
