The stakeholders, who spoke in Abuja, insisted that Nigeria’s push for industrial development as well as investment would remain elusive if the country fails to leverage technology, insisting that recent efforts being made to put Nigeria on a global data map must be sustained.

Adeniran pointed out the need for Africa to develop its data governance model, one that supports local innovation and entrepreneurship.
