The space, the Acting Consular General noted, is a symbol of opportunities and engagement meant to develop the skills of young Nigerians in entrepreneurial, leadership, and technological advancement, advising students on what to pursue in America, English language learning, cultural and artistic engagement, among others.
The American envoy disclosed that the window is equipped with modern computers, fast internet, access to thousands of physical and electronic books, billions of academic articles, dissertations, and theses through e-library resources, calling on the youths, entrepreneurs, teachers, as well as those in the creative industry to take advantage of and explore the window, assuring them of America’s support.
