The yet-to-be commissioned Nigeria Communications Commission (NCC) Industrial Park in Kano has been looted and set ablaze by hoodlums on Thursday.

The incident has sparked widespread concerns and condemnations, particularly from the Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr. Bosun Tijani, who lamented that the development was a setback for the nation’s journey to deepening its workforce for technology while creating job opportunities for the youth.

LEADERSHIP reports that the attack on the Industrial Park happens at the same time when #EndBadGovernance protesters stormed the Government House in Kano to protest against hardship and hunger in the country.

Reacting to the development, Dr. Tijani expressed his dismay on X (formerly known as Twitter), stating, “Sad to learn that our Digital Innovation Park in Kano slated for launch next week to support our technical talent accelerator (3MTT) has been set ablaze and looted by protesters. Alongside #3MTT, this building is set to host our buildathon holiday maker programme for secondary school kids starting next week. A slight setback for our journey to deepening our workforce for technology while creating job opportunities for the youth. Millions of Naira down the drain.”

The NCC Industrial Park was designed to serve as a hub for fostering digital innovation and providing technical training to young Nigerians. The attack comes just days before its scheduled inauguration, putting a halt to the anticipated launch of the technical talent accelerator (3MTT) and the buildathon holiday maker programme intended for secondary school students.
