Someone asked me, so what about NITA-U, what is special about it? I don't understand this whole hussle. Lets look at it this way;

What is the mandate of NITA-U? To coordinate, promote and monitor IT development within the context of national, social and economic development. This implies that the body shall in effect be in charge of steering the entire nation when it comes to IT.

As you may already have seen, IT is becoming a key player in all our activities today. Banks are able to avail you money from any branch because of IT, ATMs do what they do because of IT, you can pay the National Water bill from any town and it is instantly updated because of IT, you can study distance learning cheaply because of IT, money transfers are possible because of IT, all these and more are issues that touch us as laymen on a daily basis.

This actually implies that this body will play a visionary role and needs to be well constituted and not turned into a political/financial playing ground.
