IKEJA, Lagos, Nigeria – Renmoney, a leading fintech company in partnership with Ingentes Technologies is currently coaching pupils in public schools on computer programming.

The initiative titled, ‘Tech for the Streets’ exposes secondary school students to technology by teaching them basic coding and providing them with other tips on how to be successful in the Nigerian technology space.
