Love Through Technology
It's in our name. We lead with care, not judgment, and use technology as a tool to show young people they are valued.
Teqia Grassroot Foundation works to end cybercrime, drug abuse, cultism, prostitution and other social vices among young people in underserved communities by raising awareness of their dangers and giving them free, practical tech skills to thrive in a rapidly changing digital world.
In underserved communities, many bright young people grow up without a clear path to a decent livelihood. That gap leaves them exposed to cybercrime, drug abuse, cultism, prostitution and other vices that can cut a promising future short.
Teqia meets them where they are. We go into schools and communities to talk honestly about the dangers of these vices, then back that message up with free training in in-demand tech skills and guidance from mentors, so young people have a real, legitimate way to build their future.
“Teqia, which means spreading love through technology, is a grassroot foundation focused on eradicating cybercrime, drug abuse and other social vices by equipping youths and teenagers with the necessary skills to thrive in the rapidly changing digital world.”

These values shape how we reach young people, what we teach, and how we use every naira entrusted to us.
It's in our name. We lead with care, not judgment, and use technology as a tool to show young people they are valued.
We speak openly about the real cost of cybercrime, drug abuse, cultism and prostitution, before young people are drawn in.
Awareness alone isn't enough. Free, practical tech training gives young people a legitimate way to earn and grow.
Lifting one young person lifts a family and a neighbourhood. We work at the grassroots, in the communities that need it most.
A simple, end-to-end approach that takes young people from awareness to real skills and opportunities.
We visit schools and underserved communities to connect directly with young people.
