A Nigerian applicant who was anticipating news of his internship disappointed upon learning that he might not have an internship to intern at Microsoft over the closure of their Lagos office.


A hopeful Nigerian applicant, eagerly anticipating news about an internship at Microsoft, was met with disappointment upon learning that the opportunity no longer exists.
In a post on X, Lekan Olaoye said he received information notifying him that no one would get an internship at Microsoft’s ADC office in Nigeria.
Lekan said he got a message that the internship wouldn’t be happening leaving him heartbroken.
According to Lekan, this was due to the widely reported story that Microsoft is considering closing its African Development Centre in Lagos.
“Looks like the journey ends here. Thank you everyone for supporting me. I got info that no candidate would be receiving an internship offer from @MicrosoftNG due to the news. Back to sourcing other platforms.” He wrote.
