That is great! . And is good for Nigerians as it will incourage software development and digital technology as well. kudos to Google.

Great

We need more of these.. we'll get there one day..

This is a welcomed development.

Good news

Cool

Nice development...We move

Nice one Google

Working with local tech players like andela and co will make it easily manageable and sustainable

How does one get access to it, is it free? I think it’s a welcome development, alongside the likes of cchub and zonetech park, Nigeria’s technology space will more than double in talent, startups and venture capital by 2022.


Even if you are in tech, one has to be very careful and look into the future, everybody is into web development or machine learning today(I admit this is a good time to get into data science), but soon these jobs will be automated and it’ll basically be the dotcom crisis over again.

I hate to imagine a future where you’d be earning peanuts as a full stack dev. Digital marketing has reached its tipping point has has gone under


It’s wiser to go into security, networking, hacking,
or operating systems, Linux or windows etc These are the more difficult, less glamorous jobs with higher entry requirements, but they pay so well and will still be in demand in the future ( security experts earn as much as senior full stack developers which feels unfair to me)

[color=#990000][/color]Digital technology is the key to doing business in this new decade. If you ain't plugged in the system, you are definitely missing out big time.

Another way to use our intelligent once for thier growth yet they claim Africans are useless and senseless. Sighs
