As Nigeria’s economy continues to drift from oil and gas to digital economy and data technology, the Director-General of National Information Technology Development Agency , Dr. Kashifu Inuwa, has called on both chambers of the National Assembly to repeal the NITDA Act of 2007.
He added that, the agency was already on the right pedestal to make information and data technology, artificial intelligence development and other components of digital economy work for Nigeria, but expressed fears and worries that such policies would not work without an enabling laws, such as repealing the NITDA Act.
“How do we use artificial intelligence to improve our farm products and how to predict and share information about our farm. It is through the technology made available to us”, Inuwa said. The law would also give the agency the capacity to regulate information technology based on Federal Government’s objectives, while promoting local and indigenous products and making Nigeria a hub for innovations.
Government seems inadvertently promoting the maxim ' might is right' and 'don't be law abiding if you want to make it and be recognized'
ShehuSani seems the only person that is standing for the common man in this country. At least he airs the voice of the voiceless.
