Etisalat Nigeria, Tuesday unveiled the top 10 finalists in its Geek Force Internship initiative in a ceremony in Lagos.

Speaking at the event, the chief executive officer, Etisalat Nigeria, Mr. Steven Evans, commended the in-house team from Retails and Sales for driving this project.

Etisalat’s Geek Force, he said, affords the mobile operator to take its innovation a step further.

According to him, the Geek Force interns are technology savvy, intelligent and courteous 
Etisalat employees trained to resolve technical issues on various devices at designated Etisalat Experience Centres.

Also, he said that Etisalat is a customer-focused business dedicated to providing innovative and quality services to its subscribers.

“Our approach to innovation is holistic. It reflects in the features of our products, the devices we offer, they way we communicate, as well as the way we serve our customers,” he said.

Some of the participants shortlisted for top 10 in collaboration with the Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), especially on mobile devices, he said, include Onyemaechi Okafor, Gbenga Olaoye, Habib Lawal, Ubalua Valentine, Iyowu Muyiwa, David Alozie and Peter Ndunagu among others.
