Data Protection law will boost investor's confidence in Nigerian economy says Pantami Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Professor Isa Pantami has said that the introduction of data protection law in the country boosts the confidence of foreign investors in the nation's economy and propels them to do business in Nigeria.
Speaking at the event organized by the Federal Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy in collaboration with the National Data Protection Bureau yesterday in Abuja, the minister noted that investors expect Nigeria to have a Data Protection law before they can invest their money in the country in line with global best practice.
“According to him, “If you don’t have any data protection law in place they will feel uncomfortable to come to your country and invest because today, data is critical.
Pantami said privacy in Nigeria is not only in the enabling law, but rather it is the constitutional right of the citizens, it is part of the fundamental human rights in Nigeria.
