Digital Technology In Nigeria


In this era of digital and technology, Nigeria seems to be backward in terms of digital technology, because in most schools today we still teach young ones how to draw and label a cockroach or  an๐Ÿœ ant,  instead of teaching them the usefulness, advantages and disadvantages of digital technology.

China is world technology today because they equip their students with educational background of technology that will help build and develop their society, our educational system needs to be looked into properly . The minister of education and other bodies concerned, should come up with good strategy and school curriculum that will engage students and help them develop interest in digital technology. The average Nigerian youth want quick money to buy cars and houses,this is a result of ill orientation and poor educational system that only propel students to have good grades to pass to the next level,  and after cheating in school and having good grades that can't be put into productive use, they tend to look for the easy way out to commit crime and make fast money, such crime like cyber scam aka yahoo  yahoo, bank/road side robbery and so on.

The world is going digital, in few years, machines will replace humans, robots will be operating every digital machine instead of humans in banks and other industries, there is a recent research carried out by the United States of America concerning this fact in 2016 and some organisation is said to begin the operation 2017, our kids here in Nigeria need to be groomed and taught how to understand the use and essence of digital technology and how it works .

In recent times most transactions are done online, we buy clothes, shoes, phones, bags, houses, food stuffs, cars etc online, we catch up with old lost friends online, we have meetings and interviews online via Skype, whats apps groups and other social media platforms. If you have a business running and you are not going digital you are old school. Every school platform should employ the services of digital technology professionals,digitalmarketing professionals ,Social media professionals content writers, graphics designers,web developers and other ICT related professions, to train kids  from primary to tertiary on basic skills in digital and technology these will add value to the society .

In Nigeria we have alot of talented people and dream killers, the government and other members of the society are not helping issues,  though the government don't have to do everything for the people, there are other prominent people in the society that can take it upon themselves and add value to the lives of the gifted ones.
Educational system in Nigeria needs to be rebranded the way it ought to be in this 21st century.
