Tinubu: Africa’s next tech giants must be built on Nigerian soil

BOLA AHMED TINUBU VIA X:

BUILDING AFRICA’S NEXT GENERATION OF GLOBAL DIGITAL COMPANIES FROM NIGERIA

Nigeria has the talent, enterprise, and ambition to build companies that can compete anywhere in the world. Our responsibility as a government is to ensure that Nigerians do not have to leave Nigeria or rely on other jurisdictions to realise that potential.

For too long, some of our most promising young entrepreneurs have felt compelled to establish their companies and intellectual property abroad to access global capital and markets. I do not accept that this must remain the case.

I want the next generation of African technology, finance and service companies to be built, headquartered and scaled to the world from Nigerian soil.
