Historic, as Nigeria signs an agreement to build the first Nigeria AI Scaling Hub backed up by $7.5 million funding by the Bill Gates Foundation.

The Honorable Minister of Communications, Innovations and Digital Economy, Dr. Bosun Tijani made this known on Tuesday 3, 2025.

In his tweet, he said:
"A few weeks before my appointment as Minister, I had the privilege of moderating a powerful conversation with @BillGates and young African innovators. Artificial Intelligence featured strongly that day — alongside a clear call to strengthen the innovation ecosystem to unlock Africa’s full potential.

Today, mid-way into President @officialABAT’s administration, I had the honour of welcoming Mr. Gates, Paulin Basinga, Uche Amaonwu, Bunmi Okunowo and the incredible Gates Foundation team to my office.

Our conversation was rich — anchored on two pillars critical to Nigeria’s future: Connectivity and Artificial Intelligence.

We concluded the visit with something truly historic — the signing of an agreement to establish the Nigerian AI Scaling Hub, backed by up to US$7.5 million in funding and expertise from the Foundation. This initiative will help accelerate the application of AI in healthcare, agriculture, and education — critical sectors where impact matters most to everyday Nigerians.

This moment means a lot — personally and nationally. I’m grateful for the trust, collaboration, and shared belief that Nigeria can lead, not just in adopting technology, but in shaping it to solve real problems.

Thank you, Mr. Gates and team.

The work continues.

#NigerianExcellence."

Don't trust your knowledge. Una follow pastor wey talk 5G dey give COVID.

Why?

Nigerians like to believe their religious leaders over common sense.

I don't trust Bill Gate!

Who cares about your trust? Just bring your family money if it is more than what Billgate donates before can even look at your direction.

We don't want anything from Bill Gates

Go and give your money to Donald Trump

We don't want your GMO or Covid Vaccine

Thank you Mr Billgate for all time contributions. Almost all our Microsoft software money we bought from Nigeria including pirated ones have been refunded through your series of positive contributions to Nigeria especially in eradication of polio. Thank you, we really appreciate you

Sell your family inheritance and bring the money if it is more than what Billgate is offering, then we consider your own.

Hmm

Khallicopyro:

Always quick to believe nonsense news from demons. Did you try to check credible news sources?

...hmmm

FG should just watch their back please, AND WE DON'T WANT G.M.O. PERIOD!






Book Seen somehere on AMAZON.................

Before you understand what's going on, read between the lines! Ask what's in it for him.
Americans, and the rich folk, usually don't give anything out for free....so he wants something in return.

QUESTION IS...........WHAT IS IT?

Same to happen in Nigeria soon. Most Nigerians are too self-deceitful and hate the Truth with Passion. Some that said drastic reduction of African Population is a must is the Person they are praising here. They are the Carbon foot print he would reduce soon, by the time they can't make foot print on Earth any more, they will be asking Baba GOD why when they are at the great beyond..

I NO TELL YOU??








GMOs, fake vaccines, the list goes on......
See for yourself!

This man money is blood money now.
Isn't it the AI the Pop Leo warns about?
As much as we think think we need support we can do without, we need to be careful about the kind of people we get it from.
Some people are devil sent, they tie every glittering to make hell looks nice.

Ok.

More to his insane Medicare
Donald Trump and American don't want his money and his agenda that turned US to perverts and make woke children to be serving men and satan and cursing/ rejecting God.

Here he is trying to sustain and nurture the world he wanted to create to the detriment of mankind.
