The Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria
(ATCON) has described late founder of Omatek Computers, Mrs Florence Omatule
Seriki as an ardent promotor of local content, reports ITRealms.
President of ATCON, Mr. Olusola Teniola in a tribute made
available to ITRealms, said that the Nigerian Information and Communication
Technology (ICT) space stopped breathing following the confirmation of the
death of a woman who, he said, was passionately and tirelessly championed the
drive for Nigerian Local Content in the person.
ATCON, Teniola said, received the news of her death as a rude
surprise because she died when the entire Nigeria ICT Industry needed her sheer
determination, business acumen and deep insight to drive the Nigerian Local
Content to a positive conclusion.
“To us at the
Association of Telecommunications Companies of Nigeria, Engr. Mrs. Florence
Omatule Seriki can be described as an entrepreneur per excellence, a patriot, a
goal getter, a nationalist, an industrialist and an advocate of Nigerian local
content,” he said.
Also, ATCON said its teeming members pray that the Almighty God
grant the husband, the children and the entire family of late Engr. Mrs. Florence Omatule
Seriki, the fortitude to bear this irrevocable loss and also
grant her gentle soul eternal and peaceful rest.
“No doubt, she will be greatly missed,” Teniola said.
