In opening remarks to the annual World Summit Information Society (WSIS) regional review of the implementation of WSIS outcomes, Mr. Nwuke said Africa remained a consumer, not a producer of information and communications technologies (ICTs). “Clearly, to get Africa connected requires governments to explore how to do things differently. Policies have to be reviewed and updated and laws and regulations reformed to fit their purpose, drive innovation and ensure adequate protection for all stakeholders,” said Mr. Nwuke.
