About Us

At School Cafe, we begin by acknowledging the supreme guidance and wisdom of God Almighty in our journey.

Our success story is a testament to divine direction and grace. Putting God first isn’t just a tradition; it’s a fundamental principle that has guided our decisions, shaped our values, and blessed our endeavors.

This spiritual foundation reminds us daily of our purpose: to serve others through education, to operate with integrity, and to remain humble despite our growth.

“For the LORD gives wisdom; from his mouth come knowledge and understanding.” – Proverbs 2:6

Your Trusted Education Technology Partner

School Cafe is Nigeria’s leading educational technology platform, serving millions of students annually with verified information, innovative software solutions, and a vibrant academic community.

Through our news portal SchoolNews.info and our main platform SchoolCafe.ng, we bridge the gap between students and their academic aspirations.

The Story Behind Our Name

The name “SchoolCafe” carries deep cultural significance rooted in Nigeria’s internet revolution. In the Nigerian context, cyber cafes were more than just internet access points, they were educational lifelines.

While the Western world saw cybercafes as casual spots combining internet access with refreshments, in Nigeria, they were vital educational hubs where students completed assignments, processed admissions, checked results, and accessed crucial academic information.

These cyber cafes served as the primary gateway to educational opportunities for countless Nigerian students.

By combining “School” with “Cafe,” we pay homage to this unique Nigerian experience. Just as cybercafés were once the central hub for all educational needs, SchoolCafe now serves as the digital equivalent, a comprehensive platform where students can access everything they need for their academic journey.

Our name reflects our mission to provide the same universal access to educational resources but in a modern, digital format accessible from anywhere.

The Story Behind School Cafe

Every great journey begins with a simple step. For School Cafe, that step was taken by our founder, Victor Ijomah, during his time at Delta State University.

Armed with a second-class degree in mathematics and computer science, Victor witnessed firsthand the challenges students faced in accessing reliable educational information.

This experience, combined with his later pursuit of a Master’s in Digital Marketing from Chester University in the United Kingdom, laid the foundation for what would become Nigeria’s most comprehensive educational technology platform.

“My own university journey showed me how crucial accurate, timely information is for students. What started as a simple blog to help my fellow Delta State University students has grown into a nationwide platform serving millions.” – Victor Ijomah, Founder

A Journey of Growth and Innovation

What began as mydelsu.com in 2019, a modest platform serving Delta State University students has evolved into a nationwide educational ecosystem.

The transition to SchoolNews.info in 2023 marked our expansion beyond a single institution, embracing the broader Nigerian educational landscape.

By 2024, the launch of SchoolCafe.ng transformed our vision into a comprehensive educational technology company, combining news, resources, and innovative software solutions under one unified banner.
