He holds a degree in Computer and Information Sciences and has expressed his deep committed to the open-source community.

“Our unique positioning has not only exposed us to diverse data challenges, but it has also helped us to understand and implement the skill of contextualising different data systems to their unique local environment while considering important sectors like culture, economics, and regulatory contexts.

“Implementing AI and big data processing is also an approach we’ve been able to implement in our processes, while also ensuring compliance with best practices in data governance, privacy, and security.

He added: “In helping Nigeria to analyse her data for a better future, our experience, exposure, and expertise, guarantees a holistic approach to all data analytics projects.

“This holistic approach leaves no stone unturned in revolutionizing its data infrastructure and ensuring data quality and security through best data practices.”

According to David, this unique approach doesn’t leave out providing data-driven insights, tailored specifically to Nigeria’s unique custom environment that can drive sustainable development and improve the outcomes of public policy.
