Governor Hope Uzodimma has officially commenced the construction of a state-of-the-art Computer Village in Imo State, a landmark project aimed at transforming the state into a major technology and innovation hub in Nigeria.

The ambitious development, located at New Market, Owerri, is designed to serve as a modern commercial and ICT center that will house hundreds of tech-related businesses, including hardware vendors, software developers, training institutes, and repair services.
