LEAD Uganda, a NGO that provides education to orphaned and needy children, is set to build a post-primary institute to teach information and communication technology (ICT).

LEAD Uganda founder, Stephen Shames, says that there is no reason why ICT should be a preserve of developed countries.

Shames says that the institute will not only help impart ICT skills but will also bolster efforts in bridging the digital divide between Uganda and the developed world.

"I don't see why Uganda should not be able to do such things as web design and back office," says Shames.
