“Etisalat Cliqlite was introduced two years ago as the first indigenous educational product on a tablet by any telecommunication firm to improve the learning experience of students. It offers a bouquet of Nigerian Educational Research and Development Council (NERDC) – approved education materials such as text books and instructional lessons on different subjects, past questions from Joint Admissions and Matriculation Board (JAMB), Senior School Certificate Examination (SSCE) and International General Certificate of Secondary Education (IGCSE).”

We wanted to expand the scope to enable millions of students who have other Internet-enabled devices access the product and enrich their learning experience. By this, we are using what they love to give them what they need which is quality education,” she said.
