The Director-General, National
Centre for Technology
Management, Obafemi Awolowo
University, Ile-Ife, Osun State,
Prof Okechukwu Ukwuoma, has
said political will by Nigeria’s
leaders, good energy generation
and transmission will improve
production in the country.

Ukwuoma made this know in a
statement on Saturday by the
Public Relations Officer of the
centre, Isaac Oluyi, on the
forthcoming 2021 Global
Sustainable Technology and
Innovation Community Conference
with the theme, ‘Shaping a
post-pandemic world: Real-life
examples of technological
solutions for the SDGs,’ to be
co-hosted by the institute.

He, however, expressed concern
over the pathetic level of energy
generation and distribution in the
country.

Ukwuoma said, “One of the
problems we have is that the
energy generation, transmission,
and distribution level is very
pathetic. Production of
technological equipment, both
computers and others, requires a
Ukwuoma
lot of energy and if we don’t
have the energy to produce them,
we are merely discussing them.

“If there is a political will to
say, ‘I want Nigeria to develop
some things,’ give motivation,
get people to do it, supervise
them and give them everything
they require, you will see that
people will want to make a name
and survive.”
