Having listened to fellow panellists, there's no substitute for active citizens engagement with policies, laws and regulations governing the gathering and use of their information- Dr. Niyi Ibietan

It was strange that @NITDANigeria required immediate compliance with its #NDPR, whereas EU had a 2yr period for #GDPR. Not surprising, many organisations aren't compliant and citizens aren't aware of their rights under NDPR- @SolomonOkedara

Private citizens whose privacy and other info-related rights could be violated ate a critical factor in enforcement. This is a key reason for a period of sensitization prior to implementation of #NDPR - @SolomonOkedara

From experience, citizens tend to sleep on their online-related rights. There was scepticism about our firm's strategic litigation on the Cybercrime Act a few years ago, before govt began using it to persecute opponents- @SolomonOkedara

Talking about the culture of factuality and Veracity, lack of a national ID system allows Nigerians play fast and loose with information, thus affecting data quality-- Emmanuel Agha (Innovectives Ltd) at @TheLodt's #BigData panel yesterday.

My #fintech company often engages in verification survey of data to avoid the 'AC Panelroom syndrome' of tech developers. Experience in local markets h/ever show that traders change info if you're perceived as coming from govt-Emmanuel Agha #BigData

Although a #fintech entrepreneur myself, I've noted violations of regulations & standards on customer information request. E.g. there're Nigerian apps which do not allow you onboard until location info is disclosed, which is wrong- Emmanuel Agha #BigData

Of the 5 'Vs' - Volume, Variety, Velocity, Veracity & Value - the most important is Value. What you can do with your info is the main gist of #BigData

#BigData assumes data in 'gazillions' of bytes. Nigeria hasn't arrived at that scale in data Volume yet, especially in externally generated Variety. H/ever, organisations should also plan to extract Value from internal Data- Prof. David West @LBSNigeria #SMWLagos2020
@TheLodt
@TheLodt
Because of limited volume in externally generated data, the secondary market for #BigData is not yet a thing in Nigeria. Also, weak culture of factuality affects Veracity, and dearth of talent in data mining affects Value- Prof. David-West @LBSNigeria #SMWLagos2020

We can't underestimate the power of technological tools and the influence they have in governance in Nigeria.
We have to keep improving and make sure we scale to the underserved in Nigeria to give them a voice to participate.
