Patoranking Foundation And ALX Africa Unveil $500,000 Tech Scholarship Initiative For African Students

Patoranking Foundation, a non-profit organisation on a mission to advance Africa through education, entrepreneurship and empowerment, has announced the launch of the $500,000 Patoranking Foundation Tech Scholarships. In a strategic partnership with ALX Africa, a leading provider of tech training, the scholarships will provide 40 young tech-savvy Africans with access to a variety of transformative technology programmes in data analytics, cloud computing and Salesforce Administration. The partnership is aimed at preparing the scholars to become the next pioneers in technology.
Founded by African musician, Patrick Okorie aka Patoranking, the Patoranking Foundation utilises research, advocacy and partnerships to provide transformative educational programs and market-ready entrepreneurial skills to outstanding young leaders in Africa. Having invested over $1 million on youth education in Africa over the last six years, the introduction of a $500,000 tech scholarship in partnership with ALX Africa, marks a new chapter in the Foundation’s mission. From 30th May 2024, 40 exceptional candidates will stand the chance to participate in world-class tech training programmes, developing in-demand tech skills sought after by leading global employers.
Candidates will ideally already be changemakers in their community, and as part of their scholarship, will have the opportunity to qualify for internship opportunities with leading global tech companies to bridge the gap between theory and real-life practice. The tech scholarship is open to candidates from all over Africa. Candidates will be required to successfully complete the ALX admissions process and beneficiaries will be selected after a review of the individual application videos and essays submitted on the foundation’s website.
Speaking on the partnership, Patrick Okorie, Founder, Patoranking Foundation, said: “ At Patoranking Foundation, we are dedicated to advancing Africa through education and entrepreneurship. In the past, we have done this by providing academic scholarships to exceptional African students at all levels and have now partnered with ALX Africa to announce technology scholarships. ALX Africa shares our commitment to empower tomorrow’s leaders via access to advanced digital skills that are critical to future employability and entrepreneurship and we are delighted to partner with them. This step takes us closer to our goal of equipping one million Africans within the next 10 years. At Patoranking Foundation, we are ardent believers in the abundance of exceptional talents and changemakers in Africa, and will continue to challenge the financial inequalities that threaten the emergence of the next generation of African disruptors.”
The Patoranking Foundation has leveraged partnerships to provide promising young leaders with access to leading educational institutions under its Sky Level Initiative. In 2020, the Foundation awarded full scholarships to 10 scholars from eight African countries, including Nigeria, Tanzania, Uganda and Liberia, to enable them to study at the African Leadership University (ALU) in Rwanda or Mauritius. At the primary and secondary education level, 170 young pupils are currently on scholarship in five leading schools in Ebonyi state, Nigeria, the founder’s home state. This $500,000 tech partnership with ALX Africa will be open to youths from all parts of Africa, aged between 18 and 34, at no cost with all related fees covered. Beneficiaries can choose to learn fully remotely or at any of ALX Africa’s hubs in Johannesburg, Accra, Lagos, Casablanca, Addis Ababa, Nairobi, Kigali and Cairo.
Commenting on the partnership, celebrated educator and entrepreneur Fred Swaniker, Founder of ALX Africa, said: “In today’s world of AI and Big Data, young people need to be prepared for uncertainty; they need to be agile and adaptable. ALX’s tech programmes have been built around our belief in the importance of reimagining and redesigning skills training to meet the challenges and opportunities of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Through our collaboration with Patoranking Foundation, we hope to empower tomorrow’s tech disruptors and innovative community leaders with the most in-demand hard and soft skills to solve the problems of the continent and beyond.”
Patoranking continues to leverage his influence to nurture Africa’s entrepreneurial passion, ready to accelerate transformative change to the nations and the continent. By selecting resilient and innovative community changemakers for the tech scholarships, the Patoranking Foundation is equipping Africa’s young leaders with much needed digital skills to scale local impact and providing them with useful connections for collaborations. Through its concerted efforts, the Foundation hopes to create a ripple effect of change, empowering the youth to become architects of their own futures and catalysts for progress within their communities.

DeEye: Ghana’s All-Seeing Voice Leading The Next Wave Of Afrobeats

In the ever-evolving soundscape of Afrobeats, DeEye is emerging as one of its most soulful and visionary new voices. Hailing from the vibrant and often misunderstood streets of Tema Community 1, DeEye channels lived experience, spiritual depth, and raw musicality into every note.
“DeEye means All-Seeing Wisdom — a name given to me by God through the whispering of the Holy Spirit,” the artist shares. “I don’t just sing. I reveal, I reflect, I awaken.”
Born Sadat, DeEye describes his sound as a fusion of Afrobeat, soul, and conscious storytelling — music that speaks to the heart and mind. Influenced by legends like Fela Kuti, Bob Marley, and Kendrick Lamar, he uses rhythm and lyricism to explore identity, struggle, spirituality, and joy.
“My songwriting begins with a feeling — sometimes a beat, sometimes silence. I don’t chase hits. I chase honesty,” he explains. “I write like I’m speaking directly to someone who needs to hear the truth.”
Growing up in Tema, a place known both for its challenges and cultural richness, heavily shaped DeEye’s artistic path. “That environment made me,” he says. “It showed me both the dark and the divine. I reflect both in my art.”
DeEye’s music is intentionally Afrocentric yet globally resonant. He blends traditional rhythms, languages, and proverbs with modern sonic elements — not as a gimmick, but as a cultural mission.
“African culture is the heartbeat of my sound,” he says. “I’m not here to copy trends — I’m here to build legacies. I want the world to see our truth and feel our soul.”
With each release, he invites listeners on a journey — whether it’s through themes of love, survival, spiritual awakening, or personal growth.
His latest project, still under wraps, is described as “a mirror of quiet battles and bold beauty,” drawing from real-life conversations and internal reflections. “It’s not just music,” he says, “it’s medicine.”
Offstage, DeEye is introspective and grounded. “Most people don’t know I’m actually quiet. I observe more than I speak. Music is where I shout,” he laughs. A lover of storytelling, he also dreams of exploring filmmaking one day.
His perfect studio vibe? “Low lights, incense, real people, no pressure — just pure energy. That’s when the magic happens.”
Looking ahead, DeEye envisions international collaborations with purpose-driven artists like Burna Boy or Kendrick Lamar, and dreams of performing on stages from Accra to New York.
“In five years, I see myself as a global voice that still feels local. Rooted, but reaching.”
When people listen to DeEye’ music, he wants them to feel seen, heard, and healed.
“If someone tells me a song helped them feel understood or gave them strength, that means more to me than numbers. My music is a mirror — for the soul, for the culture, for the journey.”
With his blend of authenticity, spirituality, and sonic finesse, DeEye isn’t just riding the Afrobeats wave — he’s helping shape its future.

Hajia 4Reall To Be Released On May 22 Pending 3 Years Supervised Release

Barring any unforeseen circumstances, incarcerated Ghanaian “influencer” and socialite Mona Faiz Montrage, also known as Hajia 4Reall, will be released from the FDC Philadelphia facility in the USA on Thursday, May 22, 2025.
A search on the facility’s website confirmed she is due for release.
Upon her release, Hajia 4Reall will go into removal proceedings with immigration, followed by a self-deportation.
In November 2024, Hon. J. Paul Oetken, a US District Court Judge, granted a request by Fast Law, lawyers of the Ghanaian socialite, to help facilitate her self-deportation proceedings to Ghana upon completion of her sentence.
Hajia 4Reall was sentenced to 12 months and one day in prison for receiving romance scam proceeds. Montrage previously pleaded guilty on February 21, 2024, to conspiracy to receive stolen money.
Although she is due for release, she will also face three years of supervised release while in Ghana.
A supervised release is a period of restricted freedom for prisoners who have recently been released from federal custody.
During her sentencing, U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said, “Mona Faiz Montrage knowingly received illegal funds from older Americans who were victims of romance scams and now faces serious consequences for her actions.
Romance scams such as Montrage’s harm vulnerable, elderly victims not only in the cruel betrayal of trust in the realization that their online romantic connection was fiction but also by callously stealing their money. This office and our law enforcement partners are relentless in bringing fraudsters who target Americans to justice, no matter where they are.”
A Ghanaian public figure, Hajia 4Real, rose to fame as an influencer through her Instagram profile under the username “Hajia4Real,” which at one point had approximately 3.4 million Instagram followers and was among the top 10 most followed profiles in Ghana.
