The Federal Government has declared its plan to establish emerging technology centres across Nigeria.
The Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Isa Pantami, discloses this on Tuesday during his keynote address as the special guest of honor at the Digital Africa Annual Conference, which held virtually.
This was contained in a statement on Tuesday titled ‘Federal Government to establish emerging technology centres across the nation’ by the minister’s spokesperson, Uwa Suleiman.
