Tunde Adegbola
Tunde Adegbola, born 1 August 1955, also known as T. A. or Uncle T, is a scientist, musician, engineer, linguist and cultural activist. He is best known for his work in setting up popular Television and Radio stations in Nigeria. He is the founder of TIWA systems, and the director of Alt-i (African Languages Technology Initiative).
==Career==
Tunde completed a bachelor's degree in electrical engineering at the University of Lagos, specializing in broadcast technology. He subsequently obtained a master's degree in computer science from the University of Wales. He practiced for many years as a sound engineer, repairing musical instruments for a living, and his fame grew easily. Afterwards, he completed a PhD in information science (with specialisation in human language technology) at the University of Ibadan.
Tunde has been very influential in the broadcasting industry, particularly in Nigeria, where he has set up many television stations and radio stations, as well as in some other African nations such as São Tomé and Príncipe. Some of his most outstanding projects include the design and installation of production and broadcasting facilities for Africa Independent Television (AIT), Channels Television, Mainframe Film and Television Productions Studios, Media International Productions studios and Klink Studios. He was also the technical consultant to the Open Society Initiative for West Africa (OSIWA) that conceptualised, designed and built the West Africa Democracy Radio (WADR) as a hub of radio stations in West Africa.
As a linguist, he collaborated with Microsoft, working on translating the Windows operating system, beginning with Windows Vista, to Yoruba - one of the prominent local Nigerian languages. By Windows 8, the language came bundled with the operating system. Although he teaches in some Nigerian universities, he is not formally affiliated with any. He also worked briefly with Quik Cat of Cleveland, Ohio.
