The governor stressed that, with the help of the two billionaires, the endeavours of the state government to create a better society for the youths in order to achieve the recognition and validation the state deserves, has received a major boost after they have built two tangible and gigantic developmental projects in the state.
Bill Gates’ Microsoft, in an investment worth $100 million, has opened its African Development Center in Lagos, Nigeria which is the first of its kind in the whole of Africa. The centre will be used to facilitate the creation of technological solutions that will solve both African and global problems. It will also serve as a developmental scheme for the youths and made available employment opportunities for the young generation while also working with them to provide software engineering solutions to Africa and the world as a whole.
