ANAMBRA – The way to go by Ifedi Okwenna
My 26 Core Innovative Plans.
ICT and Digital Transformation
Technology is evolving at a greater speed than ever before seen in human history, accelerating to an extent that many feel it is developing faster than the human ability can comprehend it. EU Commission states that by 2025, over 4.3 billion gadgets will be connected and 90% of all jobs will require digital skills.
These projections were made long before Covid-19 pandemic, which has further fast-tracked the demand for ICT and Digital technology. With the world in short supply of IT talents, there is an urgent need for our State to train and develop our youths to be part of this new hi-tech world for work and industries of the future.
Our state should be able to provide a manpower on IT innovation, incubation and entrepreneurship. Through this, we shall from Anambra, supply the world with talents that will create capital, build wealth and reduce poverty.
Our target is for Anambra state:
• To be one of the top exporters of Information and Communications Technology (ICT).
• That ICT shall be one of the key factors for economic development of our state.
• Encourage our youths to train in IT and transform the misguided ones from using their creative talents to engage in cyber frauds (Yahoo Yahoo) to using them as innovators and incubators of ideas.
• That our youths be trained to prepare IT strategies, develop software, perform management tasks and manage processes;
• Identify and define IT-related demands, select the IT-systems that meet those demands and implement them in the different functional units of their establishments.
• That our youths be in position to analyse business systems and act as system advisors and lead such projects.
• That these young trainees shall form the backbone of our e-governance, e-business and e-learning policies and programmes.
_This is the way to go._
Join us, let’s go to work.
It’s possible.
