At the World Bank Digital Summit, I spoke on why connectivity is not just infrastructure—it is economic strategy.

When we connect human to human, machine to machine, and human to machine, we unlock the power to gather and analyze data at unprecedented scale. This insight is what allows us to solve pressing societal challenges—from public health to agriculture, education to climate resilience—in ways we’ve never been able to before.

For Nigeria and many parts of the developing world, closing the connectivity gap is no longer optional—it is the foundation for inclusive growth, productivity, and innovation. It is how we transition from a country of potential to a nation that works for all.

Let’s keep building the pipes, but more importantly, let’s ensure the value flows through them.
