It is in the spirit of strategic collaboration and partnership promoted by Prof. Danbatta, that this gesture is being made so as to enable your agency improve its operational efficiency using ICT tools and solutions,\u201d Adinde said.<\/p>\n<p>He noted that though many organisations are lagging behind in mainstreaming ICT into their operations as today\u2019s modern economy demands, NCC had taken the decision to support NFIU in this regard, considering that NFIU is a young and strategic institution that occupies a central position in the affairs of government.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNFIU\u2019s role is strategic to the agenda of the current administration and therefore, we consider that this support will go a long way in helping you achieve your mandate. It is against this background that the NCC found it necessary to provide these ICT devices.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe donation of these work tools underscore the fact that the commission values the work you are doing and believes that it is very critical to the activities of government. It is our expectation and hope that these devices will boost the morale and productivity of the staff of the organisation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Responding, the Chief Executive Officer of NFIU, Mr. Tukur Moddibo appreciated the Commission\u2019s gesture, promising that the devices would be put to the best use to enhance the delivery of its mandate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe already have an existing Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the NCC and we are happy that our collaboration is yielding positive results. On behalf of the board and management of NFIU, which I lead, I express our sincere appreciation to NCC for fortifying us with these devices,\u201d he said, adding that its organisation was ready to support the digital economy of the government.<\/p>\n<p>Mr. Tukur who was palpably elated, noted that the donation of the new devices was timely as they would be immediately deployed to deepen and speed up the development of critical digital skills required by the agency to improve the core competence of its workforce.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
