Equally important, the project is set to attract global technology giants under one roof in Nigeria.

Meanwhile, TD Africa, one of the companies in the Zinox Group and Sub-Saharan Africa’s foremost technology distributor is believed to be the lead driver of this mega project.

Investigations by our correspondent revealed that already, TD Africa has dropped hints of this potentially huge game-changing tech project on its social media handles.

A detailed visit to the Instagram and Twitter pages of TD Africa – @tdafrica and @Td_Africa1 respectively shows two video teasers of an upcoming technology project. The first, a 20-second video shows the globe and talks about a revolutionary, never-before-seen true technology experience in Africa.

On the other hand, the second one is a 23-seconds video, equally a teaser, which shows some ladies dressed in traditional Nigerian attires dancing against the background of a Nigerian flag. The teaser also references the theme of celebration, as Nigeria prepares to create a technology experience that will bring global tech giants under one roof.

On the social media pages of TD Africa, the company had also tweeted/posted a picture with the hashtags Tech Independence and Coming Soon.

Meanwhile, Chairman, Zinox Group, Leo Stan Ekeh had recently called on the Federal Government to declare October 1st 2020 Nigeria’s technology independence day.

He made this call in a virtual chat with some technology reporters.

The serial digital entrepreneur, who has remained one of the foremost personalities in Nigeria’s technology ecosystem, based his recommendation on the giant strides recorded by the country in the area of Information and Communication Technology (ICT).

‘‘October 1st 2020 is traditionally Nigeria’s Independence Day. It is a day that commemorates Nigeria’s emergence as a sovereign state. Considering the massive strides recorded so far in our journey to technological emancipation, the Federal Government should strongly consider declaring October 1st Nigeria’s technology independence day,’’ Ekeh had suggested.
