How I got the name 'Computer' – NDC's Rashid Tanko explains - MyJoyOnline

Origin of the Name 'Computer'

Tanko Rashid-Computer, Deputy National Elections Director of the National Democratic Congress (NDC), got his nickname due to his exceptional talent in the classroom.

A mathematics teacher impressed by his calculative speed and conceptual clarity gave him this name. The nickname stems from his ability to grasp and solve complex problems faster than his peers.

"I was the only person who could understand what the lady was doing. So I was more or less like a PA to her,"

This incident occurred during a mathematics lesson where the teacher's accent was difficult for many classmates to understand, and Tanko acted as a personal teaching assistant.
