“It is grossly unfair to taint an entire nation with a single brush for the alleged crimes of a few.” Nigeria
NITDA’s call came on the heels of recent indictment of scores of Nigerians for cybercrimes in the United States, and also publication of a foreign-owned software company hitherto operating in Nigeria indicting its Nigerian employees for lack of integrity and duplicity.
“Nigerian technology entrepreneurs, start-ups, scale-ups, and midsized companies have continued to blaze the trail in innovation and service provisioning in Africa and the world. We also celebrate thousands of Nigerian professionals who currently work and contribute to the development of innovation and Information Technology in leading multinationals operating globally.
Abdallah Inuwa said NITDA also acknowledges the hard work and commitment of several law enforcement agencies including the Office of the National Security Adviser , the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission , Nigerian Financial Intelligence Unit and the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related Offences Commission for their dedication to investigations and prosecuting cybercriminals.
