AYB
November 17, 2023
The piece underscores the significance of tackling Nigeria's challenges of lawlessness with a tech-savvy approach.

Here's a glimpse of the key points highlighted in the article summary:

Addressing Societal Challenges with Comprehensive Plans:
Going beyond the practicalities, the manifesto takes on societal challenges such as street begging, proposing the establishment of shelters equipped with skill development and farming opportunities. Additionally, a whistleblower program is outlined, featuring training, legal protections, and a tech-driven reporting system.

Celebrating Nigerian Excellence:
The narrative shifts towards a celebration of Nigerian excellence, emphasizing the promotion of processed foods, mineral resources, textiles, and the thriving Nollywood industry on the international stage. It's not just about exporting goods; it's about proudly branding 'Made in Nigeria.'

Catalyst for Change:
I genuinely hope that this article serves as a catalyst for discussions and actions that extend beyond the written word. It issues a call to elected officials to embrace technology as a pivotal tool for progress.
