ABOUT
BIOGRAPHY OF NANGAI
I was born and grew up in Mambolo, Kambia District-Sierra Leone. In June 1994 I sat to my 'O'level and was able to obtain a Division 3 . In 1995, I switched over to the Ahmadiyya Secondary School, Kissy Dockyard and sat to my 'A' Level and was also able to have a B in History and D in Governmentand E in Literature. It's was Freetown that my love for Computing developed and decided to further my studies in Computer Hardware Engineering at the African Information Technology Holdings Ltd (AITH) and was awarded Higher Diploma Certificate in Computer Hardware Engineer in 2006/08
I got engaged to my Wife Fatmata Nangai in March 2000. We got our first child Ibrahim Foday Nangai on the 31 December 2000.Our second child Ahmed Foday Nangai was born on the 16 June 2005 and our last Child Fatima Foday Nangai was born on the 18 April 2008. So far we have 3 lovely kids , 2 boys and 1 girl and a happy family.
In 2009, through the help of Honorable Dr. Matthew M. Teambo, a special personality I will never forget in my life, I was awarded a scholarship through the Chinese Embassy in Sierra Leone to Study Masters in Computer Applications in the Peoples Republic of China.
It was challanging though coming from an Art background but I took up the challange and studied so hard. At Hunan University in Changsha in the People's Republic of China, I was able to get a very motivating Supervisor in the person of Professor Wang Dong who encouraged me to believe that nothing was impossible for as long as you have the Determination, Dedication and Devotion. By the end in 2011 December, I was able to graduate with a Master's Degree in Computer Engineering Majoring in Networking.
In Hunan University, I was the Sport Chairman for Foreign Students of the University from 2009 to 2010. In 2011, I was Secretary General for Foreign Students too. It was during my stewardship as Secretary of the Foreign Students that I was able to lobby to some companies within the Changsha Municipality to allow Foreign Students take part in their annual Summer internship Programs in their institutions. For the first time in the History of the University, the 2011 Sany Summer Program (2011SSP) was introduced by SANY Industrial Company Ltd in Changsha. Sany Company is a machinery company that deals with heavy duty construction equipments. The 2011SSP was a success as 10 Foreign Students from Hunan University were selected of which I was among. That was the fist time the company was having Foreign Students as part of Internship Program and they indeed cherised the idea henceforth to have foreigners as interns. It was after the 2011SSP intership program that was able to gain employment in the company as a Network Administrator incharge monitoring all network equipments and configuring CISCO network equipments. After the probation I was able to sign a contract of three (3) years to work in the company from 2012 to 2015. In view of the above I need to change my status from student to employee of which there was need to either come back home to apply for Working Visa or go to Hong Kong and apply . I choosed to come back home since it had been three years since I left my Family. Upon returning home, I foud out that, my country needs me morethan China. I had to overstay my leave to enable the company terminate my contract so I can serve my country. This is how I found myself at the NATIONAL SOCIAL SAFETY NET in the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, New England Ville, Freetown as ICT Manager.
After the National Elections in 2012, my mentor and Dad, Hon. Dr. Matthew M Teambo was called upon from Parliament where he had been for the second term to serve in a more bigger roll in the Executive as Minister of Labour and Social Security. The Minister believing on my experties and Resourcefulness decided to call for me to be with him in the Ministry. This trust he had in me made him got me employed by Government at the National Social Safety Net in his Ministry. A unit under his Ministry he is supervising. I however finally got employed after going through some regorious process in 2014 as the ICT Manager.
However, the elections of 2018 came and the party of which ticket Dr. Teambo served as Minister lost the elections and was replaced as Minister of Labour and Social Security by the rulling party in the person of Mr. Adekullay King Esq. Eventhough Hon Teambo is gone I still stay and continue to serve the Governement.
We formally got Married on Sunday, 17 December 2018.
I Stop here for the time been but will keep updating as events unfolds.
