Why FG should build digital public infrastructure across Nigeria – Airtel

Airtel Nigeria has said the federal government should build Digital Public Infrastructure (DPI) across the country because it plays critical roles in enabling access to essential services for millions of Nigerians.

Airtel Nigeria’s Chief Executive Officer, Carl Cruz, disclosed this in a keynote address delivered at the 6th National Day of Identity, in Abuja.

The event, organized by the National Identity Management Commission (NIMC), focused on the theme, “Digital Public Infrastructure: Enabling Access to Services.” It attracted policymakers, business leaders, and experts from the telecommunications, technology, and identity management sectors.

In his remarks, Mr. Cruz emphasized that DPI, particularly through digital identity systems, is fundamental to ensuring that every Nigerian has access to services such as healthcare, education, and financial services.

“Digital Public Infrastructure is the backbone of any modern society,” he said. “It connects people to the essential services they need to thrive, and more importantly, it does so in an inclusive and secure manner. We need to ensure that no Nigerian is left behind as we build a stronger digital economy.”
