Vice President Yemi Osinbajo says Nigeria needs an institution that will produce cutting edge Artificial Intelligence (AI) applications for education, business, medicine, security among others.
Osinbajo said this at the fund raising dinner with the aim to establish a Nigerian University of Technology and Management (NUTM).
He said that the vision will become an extraordinary , game-changing and capable of impacting the development of a nation.
“Indeed, there must be an institution whose sole objective is to inspire innovation, inventions and research that will address the most crucial problems of the nation and the world.
“An institution that will produce cutting edge AI applications for education, business medicine, and security”, he added.
The Vice president said that NUTM is positioned to uplift educational innovation to train millions of children in or out of classrooms across the country to produce world class economists, managers of commerce in a world that is increasingly disrupted by technology and innovation.
