According to him, the ambition of the Federal Government is to have individuals and institutions that would attain greatness and wealth through IT.

“Nigeria needs to create a conducive environment and mentorship that would encourage talented youths in the IT sector. This informed the federal government’s decision to build the IT centre in Katsina State.

“Digital Innovation and Digital Entrepreneurship are the prerequisites for the digital economy.

“Leading nations today in Europe, Switzerland, Asia, South Korea and the United States that excel in digital innovation and digital entrepreneurship have a strong economy.

“Nigeria cannot and should not be left behind.

“That is why this kind of IT hub was built where our youths’ needs in IT would be monitored.

Speaking at the event, Gov. Aminu Masari of Katsina State also assured that the state would continue to encourage youths to embrace IT.
