Tomisin Ogunnubi

The Nigerian girl was only 12 when she saw a problem she needed to solve. In her community, children were increasingly getting lost. With this growing desire to help these children find their way home, Tomisin started working on an app under the guidance of an Information and Communications Technology partnership, between her school and New Horizons Computer Learning Center. Tomisin acquired the necessary skills to develop the app, known as My Locator two years ago. The Android mobile tracking app has “a current location” setting which helps the child know where they are and the neighbouring streets around them. Now 14, the young developer got increased attention this year from many people in the tech industry with some media agencies describing her as the coding superstar to watch out for.
