The Minister of Communications. Innovation and Digital Economy, Dr. Tijani Bosun, has confirmed his availability to attend the second edition of Vanguard FinTech Summit on Artificial Intelligence adoption and Cybersecurity prevention.
The second edition of the programme, which is slated for April 18, 2024, has as its theme: The Emerging Role of AI Adoption in FinTechs and Financial Institutions Cyber-Security Fraud Risk management and Prevention in Lagos.
The minister made the confirmation on Thursday when a Vanguard delegation led by the Northern Region Editor, Soni Daniel, paid him a courtesy visit in his office in Abuja.
The minister, while speaking on the importance of moving the nation forward in line with technological dynamics, said he had done a lot in less than six months in office to change the trajectory of governance through technology, especially in the communications and technology sector.
Dr. Bosun said: ‘‘We need to move forward but what it takes to move a nation forwards is not entirely for government alone. We live in a word that is changing and I am always particularly interested in taking a system approach on how to develop a society.
‘‘There is a lot I have actually done in less six months that is in the public domain. I have introduced a lot of things that has not been done in this country, even on the political side. I give a weekly report of all my activities on every social media handle.
‘‘ The three million talents haunt is a part of our programmes and even in terms of accountability and transparency. We do a weekly report of everything we do, every meeting that we hold, every programme we do because we believe that one of the ways to build a society is to build trust.
