Nigeria’s President, Muhammadu Buhari has taken delivery of the first ever made-in-Nigeria cellphone called ITF Mobile.
The product was presented to Buhari by Nigeria’s Minister of Industry, Trade and Investment, Otunba Niyi Adebayo, just before commencement of the Federal Executive Council (FEC) meeting at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
While presenting the product to the President, Adebayo noted that it was produced by the Electrical/Electronics Technology Department of the Industrial Training Fund’s (ITF) Model Skills Training Centre, using locally sourced components.
Shortly before the start of the FEC meeting, Buhari had presided over the swearing-in ceremony of a Commissioner each for the National Population Commission (NPC) and the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCSC).
Those sworn-in were Wakil Bukar as Commissioner of the Federal Civil Service Commission (FCC) and Mohammed Dattijo Usman as Commissioner of the National Population Commission (NPC).
