    Tinubu will drive Nigeria to a trillion dollars economy, prosperity, says Minister

    Nigeria under President Bola Tinubu would soon become a trillion-dollar economy despite the initial difficulties, the Minister of Communications. Innovations and Digital Economy, Dr Bosun Tijani said in Abuja on Monday.

    Dr Tijani said Nigeria’s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) would increase substantially within the next two years with 21 percent of it coming from the Information and Communications Technology sector (ICT).

    He assured that President Tinubu would drive Nigeria to prosperity within the next few months, notwithstanding the initial pain.

    The Minister who spoke alongside his counterpart in the Ministry of Youth Development, Engr Ayodele Olawande submitted that the government would focus on Youth empowerment, innovations, and entrepreneurship to increase the country’s GDP.

    Dr Tijani and Engr Olawande spoke at the Public Servant Training Institute, Kubwa, Abuja, during the commencement of the Training programmes for 500 Data Protection Officers (DPOs) for the National Certification for Data Protection, Nigeria and West Africa.

    Tijani said the present administration is investing heavily in the ICT sector as a major driver of the national economy with specific attention to the deployment of Artificial Intelligence, (AI), digital transformation of government services, connecting the citizens with digital medical services and infrastructures, and promoting entrepreneurship and innovations.

    He explained that Nigeria’s economy would soon transform to over a trillion dollar economy, not just by the sheer size of its population coupled with the preponderance of vibrant youths, but with policies envisioned under the Renewed Hope Agenda of President Bola Tinubu.

    He urged the beneficiaries of the National Certification training programmes to take the training seriously as a unique government investment built on the foundation of trust for the pioneer beneficiaries.

    The Minister of Youth Development, Engr Olawande said the present administration is recalibrating the mandate of the Ministry for far-reaching collaborations with other Ministries, Agencies, and Departments to promote inclusiveness and empowerment and create opportunities for Nigerian youths to excel in all fields of endeavours.

    The National Commissioner and Chief Executive Officer of Nigeria Data Protection Commission, NDPC, Dr Vincent Olatunji said about 3, 000 Data Protection Officers were initially penciled down for training, but due to financial constraints, the numbers were reduced because it took 2,000 dollars to train and secure Certification for each officer.

    He said Certification is a global phenomenon that would open myriads of opportunities for the officers as there are millions of jobs waiting for them globally.

    Dr Olatunji said: “Currently in Europe, 94 of companies lack people with requisite skill sets to drive the economy and in Nigeria, it’s about 99 percent. Human capital is key and it is estimated that within the next two years, about 170 million jobs will be available globally with specific skill sets for professionals.

    “Nigeria cannot be left behind, especially in the areas of data safety and privacy. We have within the last two years trained 55, 000 Nigerians on data protection and other relevant issues in the data ecosystem. But we need to do more because we have about 500,000 registered data controllers and each of them must employ at least a certified data protection officer. “

    The event was attended by the Director General of NITDA, Malam Kashifu Inuwa, the Managing Director of NigComSat, Mrs Jane Egerton-Idehen, the Managing Director of Nigeria Lottery Commission, Mr Lanre Gbajabiamila and the Commissioner of police in charge of National Cybersecurity Centre, Force Headquarters, CP, Uche Ifeanyi Henry. 

  • Aggital Works urges govt support to boost tech sector

    Aggital Works urges govt support to boost tech sector

    A digital development agency, Aggital Works, has called on the government to provide grants and support for digital agencies to accelerate innovation and drive economic growth in the tech sector. 

    The agency’s founder and Chief Executive Officer (CEO), Oghoghozino Otefia, made this appeal at the opening of a new office located at B4-313 HFP East line Shopping Complex, Abraham Adesanya, Ajah, Lagos after nine years.

    Otefia said: “The digital industry in Nigeria is largely self-funded, and many agencies rely on foreign investments or venture capital to survive. This shouldn’t be the case. The government needs to support local digital agencies with grants and incentives to help us innovate and build ecosystems that benefit the economy. We also need clear and supportive policies that foster growth, not bureaucracy that stifles innovation.”

    He explained that the lack of local funding has placed undue pressure on businesses to secure resources externally, creating a dependency on foreign investors. 

    “It’s only when you get funding from abroad that the government starts to notice you. But why wait? We have the talent and ideas right here. All we need is support to bring these ideas to life,” he added.

    Recounting the company’s beginnings in 2016, Otefia detailed how persistence and innovation transformed a modest start into a thriving business. 

    “We started from my house, then moved to a rented space. Today, we own our office. It’s been a journey of hard work and faith, and we are grateful to God for how far we’ve come,” he said.

    The company has built a reputation for helping businesses transition to the digital age. A pivotal moment came when the team secured a project with a major client. 

    “They doubted our sustainability, but after successfully executing the project, we gained their trust. Now, they are one of our biggest supporters,” the founder shared.

    The agency’s product, Ushoppen is a website builder tailored for small and medium enterprises (SMEs). It simplifies e-commerce by allowing businesses to create websites, list products, and manage sales without technical expertise. 

    “Our goal is to make digital tools accessible to everyone. Unlike other platforms, we don’t charge transaction fees, making it affordable for SMEs to thrive online,” he explained.

    The founder revealed the company’s ambitious five-year plan, which includes reaching five million users through Ushoppen and expanding its services to cater to SMEs nationwide.

    While Ushoppen is currently the agency’s flagship product, the team plans to diversify and explore new industries, including real estate and digital services. “We’re constantly evolving to meet market needs. Affordability and accessibility will always be at the core of what we do,” Otefia said.

    Reflecting on challenges encountered when starting up, the founder highlighted difficulties in hiring skilled talent and securing significant projects. 

    “Initially, we hired friends and family to save costs, training them from scratch. Over time, we’ve learned to balance serving high-end clients with catering to a broader audience,” he said.

    He also emphasized the need for more government support for digital agencies. 

    “The tech industry needs grants to unlock its potential. Relying on foreign funding isn’t sustainable. The government should invest in local talent and innovation,” he urged.

    Praying during the opening of the new office, Dr Austine Dairo congratulated the team, referring to the milestone as “marvelous in our sight” and expressing gratitude for the divine support that guided the process.

    “The success of this venture reminds us that unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labour in vain,” Dr Dairo remarked, emphasizing the spiritual foundation of the company’s journey.

    The event was a reflection of teamwork, faith, and commitment, leaving attendees inspired by the company’s strong values and promising future.

    Congratulations poured in for the CEO and team, who have set a solid foundation for continued growth and success.

  • QNET’s Decades of Growth and Success Show It’s Not a Scam

    QNET’s Decades of Growth and Success Show It’s Not a Scam

    From its beginnings in 1998, QNET has grown into a global lifestyle and wellness powerhouse, offering premium products through a distinctive grassroots business model that spans more than 25 countries. The company’s expansion challenges persistent misconceptions about its business practices, demonstrating a legitimate enterprise that connects consumers with high-quality wellness, luxury, and lifestyle products.

    “Our business model is direct selling, meaning that we are a people-to-people business,” Trevor Kuna, chief marketing officer, explained. “We develop products, people that want to earn money from business, they promote our products to other people, so it is basically like word-of-mouth marketing.”

    The direct selling industry often faces skepticism, particularly when critics conflate legitimate business practices with scams and pyramid schemes. However, QNET’s revenue structure fundamentally differs from scams, providing micro-entrepreneurship opportunities rather than traditional employment. Independent representatives operate their own businesses, selling QNET’s products and building sales teams.

    The direct selling industry requires strict adherence to ethical practices and transparency, which is why QNET provides comprehensive training and support to its independent representatives, ensuring all activities align with legal and ethical standards.

    QNET Fighting Scams Through Education

    QNET maintains offices and agencies in over 25 countries, supporting a growing network of independent representatives and customers. Its Global Support Centre has received numerous industry awards and operates in 12 languages across 14 international hubs. This support network ensures customers and representatives receive assistance in their preferred language, with trained specialists available across multiple time zones.

    QNET’s commitment to quality products sets it apart from questionable operations. The company’s extensive product line includes the HomePure Zayn air purifier, known for its advanced technology and efficiency, and the luxury Swiss watch and jewelry line Bernhard H. Mayer, which blends traditional timepiece craftsmanship with modern aesthetics.

    QNET’s corporate foundation has supported community development projects in dozens of cities worldwide. The company holds memberships and industry accreditations with international trade bodies and has garnered numerous awards for service excellence. This commitment to corporate responsibility extends to environmental initiatives, demonstrated at their recent V-Malaysia 2024 convention, where sustainable practices included eliminating single-use plastics and supporting reforestation efforts.

    Understanding the importance of protecting its reputation and customers, QNET launched the Say NO! Awareness Campaign in collaboration with Transblue Limited Nigeria and local authorities. This initiative combats fraudulent schemes that exploit vulnerable individuals by misusing reputable brand names. The campaign operates across multiple countries, including Burkina Faso, Nigeria, and Senegal, focusing on three core strategies: raising awareness of scams, fostering collaboration with partners, and educating communities about deceptive practices.

    Success Stories and Real-World Impact

    The legitimacy of QNET is best illustrated through the success stories. Take Anup Debnath, a 51-year-old QNET customer who recently set a Guinness World Record as the oldest person to perform continuous back handsprings, completing an impressive 20 repetitions. Debnath attributes his extraordinary achievement to a commitment to fitness supported by QNET’s wellness products.

    “To accomplish something like this at my age takes intense dedication, a consistent fitness regimen, and harmony of mind, body, and spirit,” Debnath explained. He credits the Amezcua Chi Pendant 4 for maintaining his energy and focus.

    “Anup’s achievement is extraordinary, and we are incredibly proud to have played a part in his journey,” stated Kuna.

    While skeptics might dismiss wellness-enhancing products as questionable, QNET’s Chi Pendant 4 exemplifies the company’s commitment to evidence-based wellness technology. The pendant combines modern engineering with traditional principles in its unisex design. The octagon-shaped copper alloy incorporates the flower of life pattern and proprietary Amezcua Resonance Technology. The product aims to support overall wellness through what QNET describes as a harmonizing effect on the body’s biofield, particularly beneficial for those maintaining busy modern lifestyles. The pendant, designed to harmonize physical, emotional, and mental energies, works with other Amezcua products like the Bio Disc 3 and Bio Light 3 to support his training and recovery.

    “His belief in QNET’s Amezcua products reflects our mission — helping people achieve balance and wellness in every aspect of their lives,” stated Kuna. “Anup’s story is a testament to discipline, resilience, and holistic well-being. We celebrate his inspiring feat and his commitment to greatness.”

    The decision to join QNET’s network of independent representatives isn’t one to make lightly. Kuna shared this guidance for potential entrepreneurs: “Be intentional about the company you keep — surround yourself with individuals who inspire you, challenge you, and bring out the best in you. Their positive energy and constructive perspectives will compound, helping you grow into the best version of yourself. Remember, you are the sum of the people you invite into your world. Choose wisely, and watch how your circle transforms your life.”

    The sustained growth and success of QNET, coupled with its comprehensive support systems, product innovation, and commitment to compliance, present a clear picture: This is a legitimate company that’s built its success on providing quality products through a direct selling platform, not the scam operation its critics sometimes claim it to be.

  • Nigeria: Embracing Gambling Even More

    Nigeria: Embracing Gambling Even More

    When it comes to gambling, a lot of African countries look sternly on the activity. Fortunately for Nigerians who love gambling, their country’s government takes a less strict approach. Nigerian law distinguishes between games of skill, which are legal, and games of chance, which are illegal. Land-based casino gaming, sports betting, and lottery are all legal, whereas roulette, dice games, and unskilled card games fall outside of the law.

    However, as the Nigerian government further relaxes its attitude towards gambling, there have been changes in regulation that could benefit players and the authorities. Below is a look at the recent amendments to gambling regulations in Nigeria, their similarity to laws in the US and Canada, how these changes might affect the market, and whether they will affect the Nigerian government’s attitude towards gambling.

    Embracing gambling with new changes in regulations

    The ruling of the country’s Supreme Court is one that could really set the cat among the pigeons since it could change how other areas are regulated. In November, the court ruled the country’s National Lottery Act void and that, instead of the federal government, state legislative assemblies should regulate lotteries and games of chance.

    It’s a ruling some state regulators have been pushing for since 2008. Back then, the Lagos state government had asked the Supreme Court to void current legislation because the national assembly lacked the power to control or regulate lotteries. According to the state, “lotteries” are a “residual” matter.

    Learning from the USA and Canada

    Some might ask whether the Supreme Court has taken its ideas from events in Canada and the USA. Both countries have granted the right to regulate certain forms of gambling to states or, in Canada’s case, provinces. In the US, some states have the say on most forms of gambling, including casinos and sports betting, and in Canada, provincial governments also have a say on what goes when it comes to certain forms of gambling.

    The activity has existed illegally in some shape or form for a long time in both countries, but both countries are waking up to the benefits of regulating gambling activities. Now, citizens in states have a safer place to game, rather than risk being ripped off by shady operators. Meanwhile, through the tax revenues gambling generates, the states themselves can increase the income flowing into their coffers.

    Success in the USA and Canada

    Legislators in Canada and the USA would likely say regulation has been successful, and why not? The stats show that’s the case. According to consumer and market data company Statista, revenue in the online casino market is set to reach $2.61 billion in 2024 in Canada, and in the US, the lottery is immensely popular. In a survey in August 2023, 37% of the respondents said they’d played the lottery, which was the top form of gambling in the US, in the last 12 months.

    The shift from federal government to state government regulation of gambling has allowed players to pursue gambling with much less fear of legal repercussions. Now they can search for casinos more comfortably online and how they rank for different aspects, such as accessibility.

    Nigeria could possibly follow the lead of countries where the legal gambling industry is thriving with reputable providers. Players must have a range of trustworthy payment methods, so they feel comfortable as soon as they login. For instance, Casino.org ranks the best eCheck casinos in Canada. More than 30 billion eChecks were processed in 2022 so catering for this audience is vital. Review sites that rate features like payment methods are invaluable and it’s clear there are a lack of reliable casino review sites across Nigeria, if the country wants a fully fledged gambling industry, this area must improve. 

    The scope and impact of the new gaming laws

    The new laws close the loopholes and legal uncertainty around gambling that unscrupulous operators have been making the most of. Now, licensing will be tighter, meaning players have more protection. Casinos will have to undergo thorough vetting processes to obtain their licenses. This will increase the cost of compliance for them, unfortunately, but they’ll also benefit from a more level playing field.

    The changes in regulation enable players to game in a safer environment. That’s because the new regulations place more of a focus on responsible gaming. Players have more support so they can play safely.

    As well as all this, the regulations create more transparency in the market. Operators must be more open about their practices. This builds trust between the operators and any partners, and between the operators and players. The transparency will make things better for players.

    A move towards an even more relaxed attitude

    Nigeria’s transfer of gambling regulation to the state government level shows a commitment to protecting its people and that Nigeria is embracing gambling more. There’s an appetite for gambling in the country and authorities want to make sure gambling is as safe as possible to participate in gambling activities.

    Opening itself up to gambling could also help the country address some of its economic challenges and pave the way for overseas operators to enter the market. This is a thrilling opportunity for Nigeria and for overseas operators and could help Nigeria improve its own gambling market and foster growth.

    The shift towards gambling regulation at the state level instead of the federal government level is a step forward for Nigeria. It will enable the country’s gambling market to thrive. The safer they keep players, the more popular gambling could become.

    Akere seeks government, private sector support on graduate internship

    The Chief Executive Officer (CEO), CherithPoint Education and Youth Development Initiative (CEYDI), Mrs. Olajumoke Akere, has sought the support of government and private organisations for graduate internships to address employabiliity gap and boost economic development.

    She emphasised the critical role governments can play in fostering structured internship opportunities, which she described as vital for bridging the gap between education and employment.

    Speaking during the organisation’s recently concluded virtual digital programme to equip young graduates and aspiring professionals with essential digital marketing skills and career readiness, Akere said governments can establish subsidised internship programs by partnering with organisations to co-fund initiatives, ensuring financial sustainability for businesses while providing fair compensation for interns.

    According to her, investing in youths will not only address unemployment but also build globally competitive workforce capable of driving innovation and shaping the future of the nation’s economy.

    She urged private organisations to play active role in reducing employabilitiy gap by collaborating with educational institutions and initiatives like CEYDI to identify and nurture talent.

    She said, “Private organisations should invest in mentorship programs that pair interns with seasoned professionals to provide both technical skills and career guidance.”

    She also called for initiatives that promote diversity and inclusion by supporting interns from underrepresented communities and providing resources for sustainable workforce growth.

    Akere called on governments, corporate bodies, and other stakeholders to take decisive action in supporting structured graduate internships, which she said were essential for unlocking the economic and creative potential of the nation’s youth.

  • Stakeholders advocate data-driven reforms to boost ease of doing business at J9C annual lecture

    Stakeholders advocate data-driven reforms to boost ease of doing business at J9C annual lecture

    Prominent stakeholders have called for targeted, measurable reforms to enhance the ease of doing business in Nigeria.

    The call was made on Thursday, January 9 at the 13th Anniversary Lecture of socio-economic group, January 9 Collective (J9C), in Lagos, themed: ‘Business and Policy Strategy: Examining the Role of Reform in Enhancing the Ease of Doing Business in Nigeria’.

    Chairman of the event, Asiwaju Solomon Kayode Onafowokan, Chairman of Coleman Wires and Cables, called for greater investment in key sectors, including agriculture, industrial raw materials, and ICT. He highlighted the importance of succession planning to ensure business continuity.

    “Investment decisions are not sentimental; globally, the primary consideration is to invest where returns are guaranteed, though not taken for granted.

    “Equally crucial is succession planning, which is vital for aspiring entrepreneurs.

    “Founders of Nigerian businesses should encourage their children to engage with the institutions they have built to ensure sustained growth and continuity,” Onafowokan stated.

    Keynote speaker, Prince Adewole Adebayo, underscored the need for fiscal reforms aimed at promoting economic growth and stability. He advocated for the metering of oil wells to ensure accurate revenue generation and emphasised the separation of regulatory functions from business operations.

    Economic reforms without political reforms are ineffective, as politics dictate the economy, Adebayo noted, stressing the importance of transparency in land matters and strengthening the legal framework to punish economic crimes.

    “The Nigerian government must look inwards, define the desired trajectory for the country, and carry out reforms based on that vision.

    “The first reform should ensure that rules are not set by players but are enforced by independent entities. Businesspeople must approach the government for general regulations rather than specific ones.

    “Economic reforms without political reforms are ineffective, as politics dictate the economy.

    “For ease of doing business, we must also separate regulators from those they regulate and ensure economic crimes are punishable,” Adebayo who was the Social Democratic Party (SDP) 2023 presidential candidate, said.

    Ugodre Obi-Chukwu, founder of Nairametrics, emphasised the critical role of data in driving economic reforms. According to him, nations that effectively harness data tend to outperform others economically.

    “Tax incentives and foreign exchange reforms are essential for attracting foreign direct investment,” he added, urging the government to address the fiscal deficit and ensure exchange rate stability.

    Segun Ajayi-Kadir, Director-General of the Manufacturers Association of Nigeria, urged the government to prioritise industrial policies. He advocated for passing pending tax bills and revising electricity tariffs to reflect actual consumption.

    “Manufacturing is key to economic growth. The government must incentivise private sector participation and clear foreign exchange obligations,” Ajayi-Kadir said.

    Toki Mabogunje, former President of the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry, highlighted the role of sub-national governments in driving reforms. She called for the modernisation of reforms and global competitiveness in the SME sector.

    Adedeji Popoola, founder of Fina Trust Microfinance Bank, stressed the need for SMEs to internalize business processes and maintain proper documentation for financial inclusion. He also urged the government to address insecurity to foster economic growth.

    Alara of Ara Kingdom, Osun State, Oba Olubayo Windapo, who was the royal father of the day pointed out that non-oil sectors are contributing more to the Nigerian economy than they are given credit for.

    Agritech is sprouting up all over Nigeria. Companies like Thrive Agric are using cool technology to make farming and food production better than ever. With their innovative ideas, they’re boosting productivity and making agriculture more sustainable. How awesome is that?

    Now, let’s dive into health and edtech—two more exciting areas where Nigerian startups are making waves. In healthtech, companies are using tech to help people get easier access to healthcare services. Imagine booking a doctor’s appointment right from your phone—easy peasy!

    Closing Thoughts

    Nigeria is still a big player in the tech world, but it’s been feeling a bit of a bump lately. Reports say there’s been a slowdown in the sector, and it’s mainly due to rising exchange rates and some tricky situations with getting foreign currency. This has caused some real challenges.

    When there’s a shortage of foreign exchange, it creates a bit of a mess! For one, there’s a big gap between the dollar and our local currency, the naira. This makes it tougher for businesses that need to import tech equipment and other essentials. As a result, investment isn’t as strong as it used to be, and buying new tech gear has become more expensive.

    So while Nigeria is still shining bright in the tech arena, these challenges are making it a little harder for companies to keep growing and innovating. Let’s hope the tech scene gets back on track soon!
