Master Agboola accomplished the achievement following a two-hour exam that assessed his skills and knowledge in deploying, troubleshooting, and developing on the AWS cloud platform.
Cloud services are infrastructure, platforms, or software hosted by third parties and made available to users via the Internet.
Peter Obi remarked in a message issued on his official Twitter profile on Wednesday that Agboola’s success should bring joy to the hearts of all patriotic Nigerians.
He stated that Agboola’s achievement should serve as a reminder to everyone of the tremendous importance that education plays in the lives of all children.
“His success story should also inspire our youths to strive hard to develop their skills and seek to always become better in their fields through continuous learning and improvement,” Obi said.
“There is far more honour in the success achieved by utilising talents positively. If leadership inspires hope through competence and transparency with productivity as key goals, our leaders of tomorrow will be directed towards making positive use of their talents instead of diverting efforts to criminality. Moreover, the recent strides of our youths in the areas of Information Technology indicate that we as a people are ready to partake in the benefits of modern technology.
“Dear Joshua, I celebrate you today for your outstanding achievement. You have made a name for yourself and our nation. I urge you to remain focused on building a great future for yourself and a better society for all.”
The story of a 13-year-old Nigerian programmer, Joshua Agboola, who just emerged as the youngest Certified Amazon Web Services (AWS) Developer Associate in Africa, should gladden the hearts of most patriotic Nigerians.
