Francis Madojemu, the head of Nigeria’s iBridgeHub and initiator of iCODE has called for a shift in the technology paradigm in Africa. According to him, the continent needs to understand how to speak the language of technology and not just remain consumers of products made elsewhere.
“Computer has got to speak to us, we also have to speak to the computer in order to accomplish things,” he said.
He added: “A lot of people know about Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. But unfortunately, they only know about the finished products and not how the products were developed.” Nigerian Bulletin
