With all this space booking how are we going to move forward? @ Op in those countries mentioned you will notice that there are actually IT professional bodies that help promote the growth of IT in those societies (example :Bcs, British Computer Society) , something that is sort of lacking in Nigeria. If the bodies could follow the type of model of the BCS where members interact often,network and exchange ideas, things can and will get better |

realGURU: Thats just the only problem with Nigerian mentality. They are always looking for where to work. To the extent that even IT professionals are also looking for jobs. What an insult. Lemme give you programmers a tip. There are a lot of programming languages. The programming languages that pay are not the type of languages that lay Nigerian programmers learn. They want to learn html cds javascript php. Then they apply to be the ceo of Microsoft. You need to be very very creative as a programmer , you must have the uncanny ability to mindmap and you MUST have a knack to solve problems. Go to http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_programming_languages_by_type learn more about different programming languages and put on your thinkibg caps. The internet is a world. You are the GOD's of the internet. A GOD doesnt look for work in his world. 5 Likes |

greggles: I feel your pains bro. Its mutual. I think the number one problem would be our government. The government has made it difficult for indigenous experts and allowed this Asians to take over the entire Nigerian It market. The Asians have messed up the labour marker and out NLC and TUC have been very unproactive about it |

What is an 'IT Professional'? Information Technology is not a profession. Perhaps if we discussed the topic without applying broadstrokes of the brush we might be able to assess the problem with more insight. |

The problem is that most IT professionals are not really that good in their field they focused more on certification rather than the knowledge, and also many go into it because of the potentials they thought it will bring them not because they had passion for it and finally most people who did not study IT or well trained can also do most of the jobs the IT professionals do for far cheaper fee and for the organized IT professional with companies, Clients prefer the Indians and other Nigerians that have made it Big over time not someone coming up. And IT need to be further broken down into much more specific duties. 4 Likes |

The government has a vital role to play to nurture young IT professionals. However, this particular sector has been neglected, there are few initiatives an aspiring IT professionals who are passionate and want to start their own enterprise. I personally think every IT professionals should learn to develop the rudiment business skills needed to successfully start and sustain a business and also learn to safe and understand the processes required to take a loan if need be to start an enterprise. Many successful IT companies today, the likes of Apple, Microsoft were born out of passion from the inventors and many started with their own personal saving and loans from family and friends. Waiting for FG to set up an enabling environment for IT to strive may not yield to any fruition. |

greggles:they lack creativity, they should join hands to form a formidable force.They are meant to be the backbone of a society cos without software we can do new plans, so they should drive their knowledge towards that direction. |

Play your cards well and try to push your ideas to limelight. Get customers for your products/company and grow. Government support programmes for IT in Nigeria been politicized and its an in-house game. Most of of the programmes are designed and controlled for personal benefits of those in the government and their relatives and friends and they have little or no knowledge of other industries where they dont operate. #Techlaunchpad #IdeaNigeria Lets hope CHANGE will change this soonest. 1 Like |

Very good question.i have been thinking about it for a while. When you talk about technology in Nigeria,everyone thinks phones and laptops. No one is talking about infrastructure. i think most businesses don't care about technology if they can save money by doing things manually. I went to see someone in an insurance company in Lagos 2 years ago and i noticed most of their staff were playing games on PC and laptop and i asked why they were not working on their computer. The guy said their server died 3 months ago so they have been doing thing manually (Paper and biro). i was shocked. No backup server also.With that type of mentality, how will IT infrastructure grow? |
Re: Are IT Professionals Being Neglected In Nigeria? by legaxi(m): 3:21pm On Jun 07, 2015 |
Nigerians don't believe in themselves when it comes to technology, they will always go for foreign gadgets no matter how inferior it is. For that reason alone you guys should forget development but rather keep dreaming about it. |

It's only in Nigeria that IT professionals are being treated like a piece of cabbage.In advanced countries they are Demi gods,also parastatals,private coys and government inclusive are part of the problem.The sooner government start taking the IT sector seriously just like petroleum,agriculture et al....then we will ser great improvement. |

ok you talked about startups.. most of the it professional's I've met hardly want to set up a startup ,, you all go get certifications and wait for someone to employ u.. why would I employ someone that learns how to maintain and implement another person's creation ,, but when he is asked to make something original he comes up short ,,, ok go setup your start up using your own skills.. if you have a good idea apply for youwin. but stop complaininanf do somethingg. |

Re: Are IT Professionals Being Neglected In Nigeria? by bigtt76(f): 3:36pm On Jun 07, 2015 |
Yes IT professionals are being negl3cted because companies and organizations that hitherto would have required their services. These organizations prefer to outsource same to other service providers who in turn hire and recycle the IT professionals amongst their clients so very few spaces are left vacant to be occupied. Government too fall in the same outsourcing category. The IT professionals on their part don't help the situation, they are quick to jump for peanuts on the side to execute projects rather than insist on the norm or like one comment noted are not ingenuious enough to come out with an original concept that would go places. 1 Like |

Re: Are IT Professionals Being Neglected In Nigeria? by alienvirus: 3:43pm On Jun 07, 2015 |
I think the problem of neglect is multifaceted. 1. Gross incompetence of the so called professionals. 2. Bad economy that leads to massive retrenchment and ultimate neglect of IT professionals. 3. Scheming out of IT professionals in most businesses. They are seen as those that don't generate money to the company. They take all the time. But IT is the backbone of today's businesses. 4. Ignorance of those that determine the economy. They see IT department as useless. They prefer archaic ways of doing things like manually keeping files, sending letters through NITEL etc. They kill IT. I will stop here for now. 1 Like |
