  "account": "The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) has partnered with the Lagos Business School (LBS) to review its digital transformation plan, the Strategic Roadmap Action Plan 2023-2027 (STRAP-2.0) and to develop a new plan. NITDA Director General Kachifu Abdulahi made the announcement at the Second Edition of the SRAP 2.0 Stakeholders Engagement Workshop in Abuja. Abdulahi emphasized the need for external input when evaluating the agency's performance and setting targets for the upcoming strategy. He explained that since NITDA sets targets, it should not be solely responsible for reviewing itself or planning the next phase alone. Abdulahi highlighted that the partnership with LBS aims to help the agency reimagine itself within the Nigerian tech ecosystem and collaborate with stakeholders to create value for the country. During the workshop, Dr. Raymond Onuoha of LBS presented an overview of STRAP-2.0, which detailed various achievements, including the certification of 2.8 million Nigerians in digital skills, support for over 700 startups, mobilization of $51.2 million in funding for technology startups, and the development of 17 regulatory standards and frameworks. NITDA has also reviewed 2.77 trillion Naira of public IT projects, optimizing 141 billion in costs, and trained almost 80,000 participants in cybersecurity. Onuoha invited participants to provide input on driving performance from activity to outcomes and comparing NITDA's progress with international benchmarks.",
