Less than two weeks after the Minister of Regional Development, Hon. Engr. Abubakar Momoh, officially endorsed “The Nigeria Digital Heroes,” a new book authored by Dr. Bayero Agabi, President of Digivation Global Network and Vice President of the Nigeria Internet Group, the publication continues to garner significant support from key figures and organizations within Nigeria’s ICT ecosystem.
The latest endorsements come from three prominent leaders: Engr. Dr. Bisoye Coker Odusote, Director General of the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC); Dr. Olushola Odusanya, Director General of the National Centre for Technology Management (NACETEM); and Professor Ibrahim Adepoju Adeyanju, Managing Director of Galaxybackbone. These endorsements, secured during a recent audience with the leaders in Abuja, highlight the book’s growing acceptance and relevance within the industry
These industry leaders are unanimous in their praise for “The Nigeria Digital Heroes,” describing it as a vital chronicle of Nigeria’s ICT evolution from post-independence to the present day. The book meticulously documents the industry’s development, tracing its path from the era of P&T through NITEL, the dot-com boom, and into the current digital age.
The three ICT giants highly recommend the book for all Nigerians, emphasizing its importance for educational institutions, research organizations, and the general public. They believe it will help readers understand the pivotal policies, individuals, organizations, and innovations that have transformed the industry into what it is today.
Dr. Agabi, a prominent Nigerian ICT pioneer and broadcast journalist, explained that “The Nigeria Digital Heroes” is the first book in Nigeria to offer such a detailed historical account of the nation’s ICT journey. The publication highlights the efforts of Nigeria’s first governor to introduce computers into governance and recognizes notable Nigerians, innovators, and policymakers who have significantly shaped the industry since 1999.
Published in 2025, the book reflects Dr. Agabi’s profound understanding and involvement in Nigeria’s digital transformation, covering policy, culture, and technological innovation. His extensive fellowships and memberships, including NCS, FIIM, FIMC, NIPR, and IDPM, underscore his deep expertise. Dr. Agabi is also the organizer of significant events such as the DigiVation Future Summit, Nigeria Digital Innovation Conference, and Cyber Nigeria Forum, and frequently moderates and speaks at key discussions on building trust in the digital space.
The endorsements from these key government officials and industry leaders are expected to bring significant attention to “The Nigeria Digital Heroes” and its valuable insights into Nigeria’s dynamic digital landscape.
