A Blogathon contest was organized by the Nigerian Communications Satellite (NIGCOMSAT) Limited Chapter of the Women in Aerospace Nigeria, the first of its kind in Nigeria in commemoration of the "Girls in ICT Day" which held on April 28th, 2022 but was marked by the Chapter on May 20th, 2022 as schools were not in session on the 28th of April, 2022. This event commenced on May 10th with an opening event as girls from high schools from the Federal Capital Territory of Nigeria were encouraged to post STEM related articles on given topics in the area of emerging technologies like artificial intelligence, machine learning, internet of things in line with the theme of the year. Submissions were received in a span of a week as they worked alongside seasoned mentors and judges carved from the space industry.We believe this event has developed their critical reasoning and improved their writing skills and also enhanced their ability to work in teams. The event came to a close today with a closing ceremony as they got graded on their final presentation this morning. Government Day Secondary School Dutse-Alhaji emerged winner of this contest with 50 points.
