A gold fish has no hiding is one axiom that befits the play out of Dr Bosun Tijjani’s appointment as honorable minister of communications, innovation and digital economy. The outcry and rage from APC faithfuls and politicians at the announcement of his nomination could be considered the situation of the proverbial ‘camel passing through the eye of a needle.’ Disgruntled people dug old twits from his twitter handle to validate their claim of his lack of patriotism and disdain for government.
But no one could beat the argument that Dr Bosun was the one person Nigeria needed to man its ICT space. The 46 years old tech giant who has engineered Nigeria’s tech space for over a decade has gained a reputation internationally among leaders like Bill Gates, and facebook founder Mark Zuckerbeg. His rich resume beats even the most cynical nay sayers that he is one who the cap fits.
