The headlines about data breaches, identity theft, and digital scams are no longer distant news—they’re happening closer to home. And as Osun State grows digitally, so does its vulnerability.
But here’s the real pain point: we’re building a digital future without enough local defenders to protect it.
Where’s the Local Cybersecurity Talent?
Osun has some of the brightest minds in Nigeria. From UniOsun to Ede Polytechnic, Redeemer’s University to Kings University, students are exploring tech like never before. But when it comes to cybersecurity—arguably one of the most urgent areas in tech—many institutions are still playing catch-up.
The good news? Some schools are stepping up. There are emerging cybersecurity academies in Adeleke University, Kings University, Iree Polytechnic, and others. But access is still limited. What about hands-on cybersecurity classes in Osogbo? Or flexible, real-world cybersecurity education in Ile-Ife and Ede Polytechnic?
We need more than computer science theory—we need bootcamps, practical labs, real-case training, and centers that focus on defensive skills, ethical hacking, and cyber resilience.
Students Are Hungry for More Than Just Degrees
We’ve spoken with students across Osun—from WAEC graduates to polytechnic students—and the feedback is clear: they want skills that matter now.
Many are actively searching for:
Cybersecurity courses for WAEC graduates
Cybersecurity education in UniOsun and Redeemer’s University
Cybersecurity classes for post-secondary youth
Cybersecurity courses for university students and young tech enthusiasts
They’re not waiting for the future to arrive—they want to be part of building and securing it.

Final Thought: This Isn’t Just a Trend—it’s a Necessity
Every new internet user, every business moving online, and every government record stored digitally increases our risk. If we don’t equip local talent in Osun to protect our systems, someone else—possibly with bad intentions—will take advantage.
Now is the time to invest in cybersecurity education in Osun State, from Adeleke University to Iree Polytechnic, from Ede to Ile-Ife. And whether you’re a student, a teacher, or a tech enthusiast—the future needs you.
