APTECH launches next-gen I.T program for new-age Nigeria

Nigeria's ICT (Information and Communication Technologies) sector has grown from less than 1% of GDP in 2001 to almost 10% of GDP today. Nigeria has also surpassed South Africa to emerge as a premier investment destination with 55 active tech hubs raising a total of US$ 94.9 million. The country is also Africa's biggest technology market and accounts for 26% of internet users in Africa, with 154.3 million internet users in December 2020. The tech sector's growth offers new possibilities for Nigeria's growing labour force in employment and entrepreneurship.
