In a bid to hurry the pace of financial advancement in Nigeria, FG has put set up experimental and mechanical device to dispatch the first “made-in-Nigeria satellite” by 2018.
The Minister of Science and Technology Dr Abdu Bulama, uncovered this while tending to writers in Abuja.
Bulama expressed that science and engineering would fast track the Federal Government’s Transformation Agenda and maintain the development of the national economy.
He said, “The African economy, I believe in the last couple of years, has shown a remarkable sign of growth; but this growth is unfortunately more of community drive, not of the manufacturing sector. For this growth to be sustained and for it to be transformed into a real national transformation agenda for the development of the nation it must be productivity-based; productivity aspect must come in.”
“And the only way you can do that is to develop your time and technology, to apply science and technology in your economy. Such that the economy, while growing, the productivity of the manufacturer will have played a key role. This is what is happening in developed societies.’’ Bulama added
