The Secretary-General, International Telecommunication Union, Dr. Hamadoun Touré, has appointed the wife of the President, Mrs. Patience Jonathan, as the union’s Online Protection Champion.
The union said it believed in the President wife’s ability to spread the cyber security message and push for necessary reforms not only in the Africa region, but across the globe.
Jonathan received her letter of appointment from the Director, Telecommunication Development Bureau, ITU, Mr. Brahima Sanou, who met with her on Friday to discuss issues related to cyber threats and cyber security in the Africa region, the union said in a statement.
“She is both a progressive leader and renowned humanitarian, and is the ideal candidate to help ITU-IMPACT in its mission to push for COP awareness and the need for national online protection frameworks to protect and support the younger generations online,” he said.
Congratulation Ma!
