Nigeria To Start Exporting Technologies To African Countries, Says Minister by eluquenson(m): 9:52pm On Aug 27, 2013
The Minister of Science and Technology, Prof. Ita Ewa, said on Tuesday that Nigeria would soon start exporting technologies to other African countries.
Ewa said this when a team of experts from the UNESCO paid him a courtesy call in Abuja.
The minister said the Sheda Science and Technology Complex (SHESTCO) “Silicon Valley”, in Kwali, FCT, would be a zone where technology would be exported. Ewa said that the valley would not only be the steering point of development and diffusion of technology to Nigeria, but also for African countries.

Prof. Ita Ewa
“We have gone to the drawing board and discovered that micro-chips and integrated circuit form the hull mark and bed rock through which technology drive.
“We believe that the best approach to Nigeria is not giving us fish but how to catch a fish.
“We want the SHESTCO ‘Silicon Valley’ here to be a unique one that will not only ensure technology transfer to Nigeria but (will) be export processing zone, where technology would be exported to other African countries.
“That is why we have taken time to discuss with Paris government and other governments that have developed their science park,’’ Ewa said.
The minister said that the centre would be where solar technology value chain could be used in promoting the technology in Nigeria.
Ewa said that was why the ministry was collaborating with UNESCO and other relevant experts to get it right from the starting point.
He added that the country was going to develop a practical roadmap that would guide the valley even after the end of the current administration in the ministry.
Earlier, the leader of the UNESO team, Dr Voslan Nur, said the organisation had agreed to collaborate with the Federal Government to establish the valley.
He said the valley would be a promising project as obtained in other parts of the world.
Nur described the initiative of the ministry on the project as the right step in the right decision to make the nation’s technology park a productive centre.
Prof.  Deog-song Oh, the Secretary-General, World Technopolis Association, Korea, said the establishment of the valley would make Nigeria one of the world technology giants in the nearest future.
“When we think of African countries, we always think of Egypt, Nigeria and South Africa.
“Now, you are one of the giants of Africa; you can join the giants of the world through the application of knowledge-based economy like the developed economies,’’ Oh said.
He said a knowledge-based economy was the only way any country could fast-track its development.
The secretary-general said such a concept had been demonstrated by some other countries.
The other members of the visiting UNESCO team are Dr. Malcom Parry of the Surrey Research Park, Gilford, UK and Mr Han-Sic Cho, the Deputy Secretary-General of WTA.
The minister and the management of the ministry later led the UNESCO experts to SHESTCO where the site of the valley is located. (NAN)

Reports coming in from Jalingo, the capital of Taraba state say Governor Danbaba Suntai has dissolved his Executive council.
Reports from Jalingo, the Taraba State capital indicate that Governor Danbaba Suntai has dissolved the state’s Executive council and sacked all advisers.
A source at the Government House also informed PREMIUM TIMES that Mr. Suntai has also appointed the immediate past Attorney General and Commissioner of Justice, Timothy Katap, as the new Secretary to State Government, SSG.
He also appointed Aminu Jika as his new Chief of Staff. The source added that both appointees will be sworn in by 2 p.m. Wednesday at the Government House.
This is the second time that Mr. Jika is being appointed as the Chief of Staff to Mr. Suntai. He was first appointed when Mr. Suntai took office in 2007.
Controversy has trailed Mr. Suntai’s return with observers questioning his mental state of health as the governor continues to stay or be kept away from public glare.
Although the governor sent a letter to the Speaker of the Assembly on Tuesday asking to return to office, the speaker has reportedly rejected the letter asking Mr. Suntai to appear before the lawmakers to confirm his ability to lead the state.
