When I saw ESP now my mind just went to ESP32 and ESP8266. I be wan say which one be Nigerian esp again?
Electronics guys why don't we have a WhatsApp group or telegram group to help each other solve problems na? Something like our own local stack overflow for embedded systems and iots. Like now do you know that arduino itself has iot cloud like adafruit, blynk and others? I didn't know. I'm just seeing it today.

Good.

But I don't like the way they loosely used "offer to support" like say na free. Nigeria is the biggest and largest economy in Africa and 25th in the world. As it is now, It's riskier for any global tech giant to sleep on India and Nigeria.

You are coming to support nothing but tap into the opportunities that are bound in Nigeria.

Nothing is free.

Nigeria is already too late , forget India they are light years ahead in technology. Nigeria is not even in the picture.

IBM , Google , Microsoft , Intel , AMD , Qualcomm etc have their R & D , product centers etc in India since last 2 decades.

But it is a welcome step , we can atleast try to generate some employment through this and learn from them

Importantly we must support our local software companies and encourage our youths.

Maybe this will kick some sense into the mumu politicians

They should concentrate on infrastructure by building networks to make data low and manufacturing for export to other Africa subregions.

I think the silicon valley visit by Osinbajo is paying off. I went there, marvelled the investors and later, they announced that they are going to train 10million youths in Africa; out of this number, 5 million youths will come from Nigeria.

This again is coming after the VP had a virtual meeting with Hauwei and told them, they should help improve youths skills.

Sensible youths will key into this opportunity. Keep your eyes open and your ears wide because information will be rolled out ...don't just wail. It's 2021.. go easy on wailing
Make sure to rollout the link for application. Information is key and stop being sensible.

Electricity electricity electricity.
Without stable electricity, FDI would be poor.

Imagine PEOPLE coding at Facebook and NEPA carry light.

Hundreds of Lines of codes disappear.

Imagine NEPA "carry light" at Facebook and there is no back up power... Unimaginable.

Yeah, I agree with you. We are late but not too late. That Nigeria is attracting these companies in Buhari's time says a lot about his governance and sense of vision for Nigeria.

Siemens power project, railway, roads, broadband infrastructure, ports etc, we are just getting the basics right under Buhari and Osibanjo.
