The conference was themed African China Cooperation in Information Technology and Digital Economy: Prospects and Challenges. The event was organised by the Nigeria Institute of International Affairs (NIIA) in association with the People's Republics of China Embassy in Nigeria and Hauwei technologies.
The event was held in the Sheraton hotel and towers in Abuja and Chaired by the Chairman, Senate committee on foreign affairs (representative)
As a contributing participant, I gave a review of the 5 papers presented at the first session conference to provide an in-depth analysis and feedback on each paper
and offered valuable insights and critiques.
This was to enable the audience to understand the papers better – although there was a limited time offered which made it inadequate to give detailed feedback for the strengths and weaknesses of each paper.
As a prerequisite for development and securing investments, I emphasised the need to ensure the cybersecurity domain is fully ready in accordance with global best practices to ensure that our developmental objectives are met.
I also highlighted the need for the Chinese government to consider working with the Nigerian government and other Africa governments in the mediation for peace and stability of African nations. The Chinese government has currently a policy of non-interference in economies in which they operate. It is important to note that no security means no investment.
