After three years of trying to make sense of this narrative, I can finally say: the journey is complete.

Coded in Grit: The nHub Story tells the story of how Jos, Plateau State, despite years of crisis and uncertainty, became the birthplace of Northern Nigeria’s first innovation hub.

This is more than a book about nHub. It is a story of resilience, grit, innovation, people and the belief that something meaningful can be built even in the most difficult circumstances.

I am excited to announce that the book will be officially launched on 3rd December 2026.

More details about the venue, programme and other activities will be announced soon.

Three years of writing. Years of building. One story finally told.

Coded in Grit.
The nHub Story.

Yesterday, I was honoured at the National Society of Biochemistry Students (NSBS), University of Jos Chapter Dinner, Magazine Launch & Award Night, held at Kee Event Centre, Justice Makama Close, along Hill Station Roundabout, Jos.

I was presented with an Award of Excellence in Leadership and Impact, in recognition of my exemplary leadership, outstanding service and meaningful contributions to society.

I was represented at the event by Mubarak Lawal, Director of Support Groups, City Boy Movement; Younglan Talyoung, SUG President, University of Jos; and Ms. Chloe Selzing, Coordinator, Gender and Inclusion, City Boy Plateau State Student Directorate.

Interestingly, this is not my first recognition from NSBS.

In 2009, when I graduated from the Department of Biochemistry at the University of Jos, the same organisation recognised me with an award titled “Most Unlikely to Practise Biochemistry.”

Well... they were right! 😂

I studied Biochemistry, but life took me through technology, entrepreneurship, public service, digital transformation and leadership.

Sixteen years later, to return to the same family and receive an award for leadership and impact is both humbling and deeply meaningful.

Sometimes, life takes you far from where you started, but the foundation you built along the way never leaves you.

I sincerely appreciate the NSBS University of Jos Chapter for this honour. I remain grateful to my alma mater and to the young people who continue to inspire me to serve and create impact.

Today, I led a delegation from the Digital Bridge Institute (DBI), alongside our guest from the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), Ms. Robyn Fysh, Senior Digital Skills Officer at the ITU Headquarters, Geneva, on a courtesy visit to the Director General of the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA).

Ms. Robyn is in Nigeria on a working visit to understudy the implementation of the ITU Digital Transformation Centre (DTC) programme in Nigeria.

The visit provided an opportunity to explore a stronger partnership between DBI and NITDA in advancing the implementation of DTC programmes across the country.

As Nigeria deepens its digital transformation journey, strategic collaboration among institutions remains critical to expanding access to digital skills, strengthening capacity and ensuring that more Nigerians are equipped to participate meaningfully in the digital economy.

We look forward to translating this engagement into practical programmes and greater impact across the country.

Today, I was present at the closing ceremony of the 3-day ITU-CISCO training convened by the Digital Bridge Institute (DBI) at Government Day Secondary School, Karu.

I was joined by Ms. Robyn Fysh, Senior Digital Skills Officer at the ITU Headquarters, Geneva, the Acting Chairman of FCT UBEB, the Director/Secretary of FCT SEB, and other distinguished guests.

The training is part of the International Telecommunication Union’s Digital Transformation framework, aimed at equipping young people with relevant digital skills for an increasingly digital world.

Earlier this year, DBI became an ITU Digital Transformation Centre, further strengthening our role in advancing digital skills development and inclusion in Nigeria.

This is more than training. It is about preparing our young people for the opportunities of tomorrow and ensuring that no one is left behind in the digital transformation journey.

Today, I received Ms. Robyn Fysh, Senior Digital Skills Officer at the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), as part of the ITU’s efforts to strengthen the Digital Transformation Centre (DTC) at the Digital Bridge Institute (DBI).

The visit provides an opportunity to deepen collaboration between ITU and DBI and further strengthen our capacity to deliver impactful digital skills and transformation programmes.

As part of the engagement, the ITU/DBI delegation will also visit other supporting institutions within the Nigerian Government to explore opportunities for greater collaboration and coordination.

This partnership represents more than a visit; it is a shared commitment to building a digitally empowered Nigeria. By strengthening our institutions, expanding access to digital skills, and connecting people with opportunities, we can accelerate inclusive digital transformation and ensure that no one is left behind in the digital economy.

Together with our partners at the ITU and across Government, DBI is committed to turning this vision into measurable impact and positioning Nigeria to play an even stronger role in the global digital future.

Earlier today, I joined our National Chairman, Prof. Nentawe Yilwatda, as he received representatives of ADC candidates from Zamfara, Plateau, Taraba and Jigawa States who have joined our great party, the All Progressives Congress (APC).

It was a privilege to stand with our Chairman as he welcomed them into the APC family and received their commitment to support President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Renewed Hope Agenda.

His leadership continues to provide direction, and we remain committed to supporting him as he leads the party and strengthens the APC across the country.
