A bill seeking to establish the National Centre for Information and Communication Technology in Nkanu, Enugu state, has passed for second reading in the senate.
The bill was sponsored by Kelvin Chukwu, senator reprsenting Enugu east.
Leading the debate during Wednesday’s plenary, Chukwu said the bill aims to create a world-class institution for training, innovation, and research in emerging digital fields.
He said information and communication technology has become central to economic growth, governance, education, health and global competitiveness.
“Nigeria’s large youthful population presents a significant opportunity to expand the digital economy but that access to ICT training remains uneven across regions,” he said.
