Speaking at the graduation ceremony in Abuja, a director at the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), Dr Amina Sambo, urged the graduating developers to be innovative in order to solve problems for Nigeria.

Dr Sambo said that government, through NITDA would always support tech entrepreneurship in the country by offering scholarships to deserving students of tertiary institutions and others at IT hubs across the country.
