President Bola Tinubu has advanced Nigeria's Digital Free Zones initiative to its implementation stage, according to a statement from his Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga. The initiative aims to enable Nigerian technology and service companies to raise global capital, employ Nigerians, and build for international markets without relocating their businesses and intellectual property abroad. It is also expected to create opportunities for young Nigerians to work for global companies from Nigeria and expand the domestic ecosystem of engineers, developers, designers, lawyers, accountants, and other professionals serving digital businesses. Tinubu emphasized that Nigeria has the talent, enterprise, and ambition to build globally competitive companies, and that the government's responsibility is to support this.
