He is also well known in the non-profit society[1] as he is reputable for using his technology and media skills in sustaining advocacy for inclusion of women, youth and persons with disabilities (PWDs) in governance processes in Nigeria.[2]

Education

Eta Uso holds a Bachelor's degree in Electrical Electronics Engineering from Cross River University of Technology. He thereafter obtained a Master of Science degree in Computing and Internet Systems[3][4] from Bangor University, Wales, United Kingdom. In 2014, in the need to sharpen his new media skills, he obtained a Professional Diploma in Digital Marketing from DM3 Institute in Abu Dhabi.

Advocacy Work

Eta has used his passion for writing and proficient skills in new-media to OpEd many political yet non-partisan articles[5][6][7] with the goal of fostering a more united and inclusive Nigeria.

Most recently, Eta has leveraged on the power of the internet to call attention to the need for the passage of the Not Too Young To Run Bill[8] in Nigeria. His views have also been carried by some of the top media agencies in the country.[9] This 'youth inclusive' bill seeks to reduce the constitutional age requirement for running for elective office in Nigeria: from 40 years to 30 years for President of the Federal Republic; from 35 years to 30 years for State Governor; from 30 years to 25 years for Federal House of Representatives; and from 30 years to 25 years for State Assembly.
