Vice Presidential Candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Kashim Shettima said upon emerging victorious at the February elections, their administration will ensure that Nigeria taps into the $14.5 trillion global digital economy of the Fourth Industrial Revolution (4IR).

The event was organised by United States Ambassador to Nigeria, Mary Beth Leonard, and Consul General William B. Stevens in conjunction with the American Business Council.

According to him, with Nigeria standing at a pole position and being the continent’s largest economy with a high mobile penetration index, the new APC administration will fully position the country to harness the potential of the burgeoning $14.5 trillion dollars global digital economy.
