I want to reiterate my plea to @dejitoye of @TheLodt, as I've done at their previous @SMWLagos events, that these valuable conversations should be recorded in communiques for wider follow-up engagement- Dr. Niyi Ibietan

It was strange that @NITDANigeria required immediate compliance with its #NDPR, whereas EU had a 2yr period for #GDPR. Not surprising, many organisations aren't compliant and citizens aren't aware of their rights under NDPR- @SolomonOkedara

@TheLodt Private citizens whose privacy and other info-related rights could be violated ate a critical factor in enforcement. This is a key reason for a period of sensitization prior to implementation of #NDPR - @SolomonOkedara

Talking about the culture of factuality and Veracity, lack of a national ID system allows Nigerians play fast and loose with information, thus affecting data quality-- Emmanuel Agha (Innovectives Ltd) at @TheLodt's #BigData panel yesterday.

@SolomonOkedara My #fintech company often engages in verification survey of data to avoid the 'AC Panelroom syndrome' of tech developers. Experience in local markets h/ever show that traders change info if you're perceived as coming from govt-Emmanuel Agha #BigData

Of the 5 'Vs' - Volume, Variety, Velocity, Veracity & Value - the most important is Value. What you can do with your info is the main gist of #BigData
-- Prof. Yinka David-West (@LBSNigeria) at @TheLodt's #SMWLagos2020 panel yesterday.

@dejitoye #BigData assumes data in 'gazillions' of bytes. Nigeria hasn't arrived at that scale in data Volume yet, especially in externally generated Variety. H/ever, organisations should also plan to extract Value from internal Data- Prof. David West @LBSNigeria #SMWLagos2020
