Head of Legal Services, NITDA, Emmanuel Edet, stated this at a webinar organised by the Nigeria Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers NIEEE in Lagos.
The webinar had as  its theme: “The Proposed NITDA Amendment Bill:  Impact of Professionals”.
Edet explained that the bill that established NITDA was passed and signed to into law in 2007 for the regulating and development of  information technology in Nigeria.
He noted, however, that the legacy bill of 2007 could no longer address the new developments in information technology space, because of changes that had occurred in the IT sector ever since.
He noted collaborative regulations as the duty of all players in digital ecosystem, with NITDA at the centre of the process which informed the call for review of the mandate of NITDA.
