Moses Adebowale Akanbi, a professor of computational mathematics at Lagos State University, has said that there is a need to develop homegrown software solutions.
The Professor expressed this at the university’s 114th Inaugural Lecture titled ‘The Nature of Error: Human Fallibility versus Divine Infallibility in Computational Thought,’ adding that it will improve national development.
Akanbi mentioned that depending on software imports can hinder local innovation and technological advancement in Nigeria.
“A radical shift in our approach to technology is imperative. We must create an environment where our local developers lead the way, crafting solutions that address our unique challenges and aspirations.”
He added, “Embracing God’s perfect standard as our guiding principle, much like a divine GPS, can lead to significant improvements in our governance and society.”
