Nigeria Ready To Overtake World Economy – Shettima by Veegil: 1:00pm On Jul 25, 2024 |
VP Kashim Shettima says Nigeria isn’t simply finding the remainder of the world but also ready to overtake the world economy. He communicated this when he unveiled the AI Expertise Blockchain and Technology Training and Outsourcing Initiative in Dutse, Jigawa. The initiative launched at the Yakubu Gowon NYSC Orientation Camp, Fanisau, a suburb of Dutse, was was essential for Nigeria’s strategy for digital change and leadership in Africa. The AI Expertise Blockchain and Technology Training and Outsourcing Initiative, a partnership with tech company Gluwa, aims to prepare 1,000 Nigerians yearly in AI, blockchain, and other cutting-edge technologies. Shettima encouraged the youths to accept the initiative, zeroing in on the fact that “it is important for the nation’s economic future. “We are not merely catching up with the rest of the world; we are poised to overtake them. “This initiative offers its beneficiaries the chance to become part of a global workforce, driving innovation that will shape our future,” he said. Shettima noted the Jigawa state’s spearheading role in digital technology adoption. He depicted the programme as “a homecoming ceremony for those who have eased our journey through the Fourth Industrial Revolution.” While calling out the federal government’s broader vision, Shettima said, “We are adopting this initiative across the nation to create a network of tech hubs that will power Nigeria’s economic growth for decades to come.” He lauded the partnership with Gluwa, expressing that it aligned with President Tinubu’s plan to revolutionize Nigeria’s digital technological circle. Shettima, who recognized Gluwa’s significant impact, additionally commended the firm for its empowerment of Aella Microfinance Bank. As per him, the empowerment brought about the disbursement of over N100 billion to two million Nigerians. On global ramifications of the initiative, Shettima said: “Our aspiration remains to transform Nigeria into a premier destination for technology outsourcing. “Creating a model that combines global expertise with local talent.” Earlier, Gov. Umar Namadi noted the significance of the initiative, portraying it as a rare opportunity at the doorstep of the youths. He encouraged the people to venture into the digital world of ICT outsourcing to reap its rewards. “Particularly in terms of job creation and opportunities to contribute to the growth of our economy. Jigawa has a history with ICT education. ”The state is blessed with hundreds of thousands of ICT-savvy and qualified youths in various fields of information and communication technology. “This is courtesy of our very reputable Informatics Institute, established more than two decades ago.” He said the new initiative lines up with both the Federal Government’s Renewed Hope Agenda and Jigawa State’s 12-Point Agenda, focusing on digital technologies and innovation. Namadi further announced the establishment of a new ICT and Digital Economy Agency in the state, adding that “more than ever before, we are determined to reposition Jigawa State as a major ICT hub in Nigeria.”
