  "summary": "The British High Commission in Nigeria has reaffirmed the UK’s commitment to supporting Nigeria’s digital transformation agenda following a recent visit by the British Standards Institution (BSI). Central to the visit was the successful delivery of an Executive Workshop on Artificial Intelligence Governance and Standards in partnership with the National Centre for Artificial Intelligence and Robotics (NCAIR). The four-day workshop brought together senior government leaders, regulators, and technology practitioners to strengthen Nigeria’s capacity for responsible AI adoption, governance, and oversight. The workshop explored practical approaches to implementing internationally recognised standards for AI governance, risk management, assurance, and accountability, while supporting Nigeria’s ambition to become a leading AI economy in Africa.",
