The Opon Imo is a tablet that comes fitted with educational materials and textbooks.

It was launched in 2013 by the Osun State government for use by senior secondary school students.

According to the State government, the gift will help with the rehabilitation of the students who were only recently freed from Boko Haram custody.

A chunk of the schoolgirls who were abducted in 2014, are still in Boko Haram custody.

The President Muhammadu Buhari administration has secured the release of over 20 of the schoolgirls.

The Opon Imo programme has in the past four years, guaranteed a computer electronic device in the hands of students, some of whom hail from poor backgrounds.

The tablet has also been made accessible to students in rural communities where such devices remain a luxury, at best.

According to latest data from the Osun State government, performances of students writing the WASSCE examinations has since improved year on year, culminating in a 46 percent pass rate in five subjects; including Mathematics and English in 2016, thanks in large part to the Opon Imo.
