Militancy Risk and the Nigerian Economy in 2020

Like other social movement groups in the country, the militant groups in the Niger Delta region evolved on the need for the Federal Government of Nigeria to address environmental issues occasioned by the activities of the oil and gas companies, especially the oil spillage and gas flaring. The militancy has been an issue before the emergence of the President Muhammadu Buhari administration. Like him, successive governments promised to resolve the issues being raised by the people in the region regarding their environment. However, efforts of the present administration to address the identified issues after 2015 general elections led to the significant fall in the country’s revenue source –crude oil and compounded the country’s recent economic recession between 2016 and 2017. Having realised the severity of the incessant oil pipeline destruction and kidnapping of workers, Federal Government took certain measures and reaffirmed its commitment to the welfare of the militants who hav

Investment, savings key to Nigeria’s recession escape-study

Despite the hope of leaving economic recession by government and Nigerians, a study has revealed that Nigerians are engaging in spending activities more than saving and investing. This is contrary to what economists have suggested as the best choice for leaving the recession.

Food, household services, and public transport are the most essential commodities and services Nigerians are spending on. Based on locati

AISaturdays’ Ambassador on Ibadan as Next ICT Frontier in Western Nigeria

In this WETi (What Expert Tells Infoprations), Ahmed Olanrewaju speaks about Ibadan, the largest city in West Africa, of being the next ICT hub in Western Nigeria and its primary place in providing Tech Talents to Lagos ICT hub. What is the main reason behind AISaturdays in Ibadan? I was a beneficiary of AI Saturday in Lagos, I attended the classes for 16 weeks, a lot of knowledge was gained, met a lot of people in the data science and machine learning space, participated in two different competitions. Having spent more than N100, 000 and a lot of risk shuttling between Lagos and Ibadan every Saturdays, I felt strongly that it is really worth creating and driving a community in the city of Ibadan to give more upcoming researchers and professionals more opportunity to learn. Why such programme is being held in Ibadan despite the fact that it is not accustom with ICT like Lagos? The truth of the matter is that, any city can grow to be like Lagos, all we need is to change
