Microsoft To Equip Owura Kwadwo With Computers And Teaching Materials


Bill Gate’s Microsoft is willing to equip the sensational ICT teacher who teaches his students without computers.

Somewhere in the middle of February, Owura Kwadwo became an internet sensation after a picture of him teaching ICT with a painstaking drawing Microsoft’s Word Processing tool on a chalkboard. Owura Kwadwo’s infamous Facebook post has been featured in many publications across the world including BBC and CNN.
Here’s what he posted;
Teaching of ICT in Ghana’s school is very funny. ICT on the board paa. I love ma students so have to do wat will make them understand Wat am teaching.
#committedteacher.
#ICTontheboard.
#Teacherkwadwo

Everybody who saw his post was marvelled but Cameroonian entrepreneur, Rebecca Enonchong went the extra mile to tag Microsoft Africa in her tweet. She tweeted;
Hey @MicrosoftAfrica, he’s teaching MS Word on a blackboard. Surely you can get him some proper resources.
