The Digital Revolution and the Evolution of e-Sport in Nigeria - By PediakAuthor

The "@leahloveschief: Life on Twitch" on BBC News motivated the writing of this piece.
To start with, the chapter 4 of the Pediak Book titled; "Empowering Youths With 30+ Lucrative ICT ideas" talks about the e-Sport - 3D Video Games Live Streaming.

Notably, "Twitch TV is a video game Live Streaming Channel with uniquely having more than 34 million monthly views. Video Gamers across the globe can now for another online community of like minds birthed by a new genre of entertainment.
Ultimately, competitive video game players can now earn a living on Twitch".

Furthermore, the second chapter of the NICTIP Initiative Book titled; "A sustainable Transformational Agenda in Nigeria", precisely page 37 talks about Ginx TV; an international TV Channel dedicated for electronic sports. Ginx has a 3D Video game live streaming channel on DSTV and GOTV.

The revenue generating potentials of this new breed of entertainment is presently being fully maximized by the Asian Tigers and other allied nations for youth employment and job creation. At this critical time, the Nigerian Government and various investors should see reasons to collaborate via Public Private Partnership, in an attempt to get the youths engaged in the process of developing the nation, by exploiting their entertaining skills. This could he actualized by making adequate provision for the capital needed to set up this capital intensive project.

Massive incomes are generated via Subscriptions, Commissions and advert placement on any of the 3 prominent viewing Channels.

The development of the e-Sport in Nigeria will also help the her youths to earn a living via what they do for mere fun. Additionally, It will foster international business relation and will therefore conserve the much needed foreign exchange in Nigeria.

As reported by the BBC NEWS -
"One of the UK's most successful female gamers earns more than the average household income from people subscribing to her channel to watch her play games".

It is therefore time for Nigerians to explore the limitless revenue generating potentials in the e-Sport investment for self-employment.

Ultimately, this business idea will get the Nigerian youths busy and several societal issues will be solved.

The Goal of the NICTIP initiative is to create a replica of some tested solutions that worked for the Asian Tigers' sustainable economic development agenda in Nigeria - by blazing a trail for an industrial revolution via a 'guided capitalism' economic system.
