Youths, especially, have been urged to utilise the knowledge they possessed in various areas of specialisation to change the narrative of being viewed as a second fiddle by improving the standard of living in their respective societies.
A professor of computer science and cyber security, Aisha Ali Gombe, made the call while speaking at a one-day conference in Bauchi titled “Changing the Narrative” organised by a nongovernmental organisation, TEDx Bauchi.
According to Ali Gombe, women are the backbone of society as they often lead the way in eradicating challenges bedeviling the various parts of society.
Aisha who is also an expert in computer engineering at the Louisiana State University, USA further explained that despite the challenges she has battled, that did not prevent her from becoming what she is today.
