Tunde Onakoya said four successful participants will each receive a laptop to support their learning and career development. The laptop support could be very much useful for applicants who want to develop digital skills but do not currently have the necessary equipment to participate effectively in online learning and practical projects.

However, applicants should pay attention to the official application instructions for details about eligibility and how the laptop beneficiaries will be selected. The LinkedIn announcement confirms that four laptops will be awarded but does not provide additional selection criteria in the post.
