‘How African countries can speed up digital migration’



Digital migration in broadcasting is irreversible and unstoppable, hence Nigeria and, indeed the entire African continent, must join the global digitalization train so as not to be left behind, the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, said recently in Beijing, China.
He was speaking at the end of the 6th African Digital TV Development Seminar in the Chinese capital. Mohammed said it is imperative for Africa to utilize the platform provided by digitalization to leapfrog into the future of technology.
In a statement by the Special Assistant to the Minister, Segun Adeyemi, Mohammed said a successful transition would spin off benefits far beyond broadcasting, not just for Nigeria but for the entire African continent, adding that a timely and successful Digital Switch Over (DSO) would put many of the country’s youths to work, provide the platform for their creativity to blossom, ensure technology transfer and create opportunities far beyond what anyone can fathom at the moment.
