\n Cybersecurity and digital trust professional, Emmanuel Omoke, has been honoured with the Outstanding Chapter Leader Award at the 2026 ISACA North America Conference held in Las Vegas, United States.
\nOmoke received the recognition for his contributions to discussions and initiatives around cybersecurity, governance, risk, privacy and digital trust across Africa and beyond.
\nAt the same event, the ISACA Abuja Chapter also received the Innovative Chapter Program Award, alongside the ISACA Chicago Chapter, in recognition of programmes aimed at strengthening professional development and workforce readiness.
\nReacting to the award, Omoke attributed the achievement to the collective efforts of members of the ISACA Abuja Chapter and fellow professionals within the global network.
\n\u201cWe are grateful for the opportunity to serve and contribute meaningfully to the tech industry in Nigeria, Africa and the world,\u201d he said.
\nThe ISACA Awards recognise individuals and chapters that demonstrate innovation, measurable impact and leadership in advancing the global professional community.
\nBeyond his latest recognition, Omoke has led several initiatives focused on youth empowerment, cybersecurity awareness, startup innovation, data privacy, internal audit transformation and digital trust across Africa.
\nThese include Internal Audit Awareness Month, Cybersecurity Awareness Campaigns, Data Privacy Week, Code4Privacy Hackathons, student innovation challenges, and the IGNITE Youth Programme, delivered in collaboration with Scratch & Script Kenya and several ISACA Africa Chapters.
\nThrough these programmes, more than 1,300 young people across the continent have gained digital skills, cybersecurity knowledge, mentorship and access to global professional networks.
\nThe initiatives have also brought together regulators, auditors, compliance professionals, technology leaders and policymakers, fostering cross-border collaboration and contributing to the development of a future-ready digital workforce.
\nAs convener of several professional awareness programmes, Omoke has facilitated knowledge sharing and collaboration among cybersecurity experts, auditors, academics, industry practitioners and government stakeholders across multiple countries.
\nHis contributions have previously earned him several recognitions, including the NITDA IT Advocacy Award, the ISACA Outstanding Chapter Leader Award, the ISACA Innovative Chapter Program Award, and membership of the ISACA Global Workforce Advancement Advisory Group.
\nHe also continues to play an active role in shaping conversations around cybersecurity, artificial intelligence governance, privacy, ethics and operational resilience within the energy and critical infrastructure sectors, through executive masterclasses, industry roundtables and strategic collaborations with regulators and industry leaders.<\/p>\n
