Nigerian Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, Dr Isa Ali Ibrahim Pantami has been elevated to the rank of Professor at the Federal University of Technology, Owerri.
The Minister was promoted to the rank of Professor of Cybersecurity, following successful external assessments of his original contribution to knowledge in the field of Computing.
Zamfara State Governor, Hon. Dr. Bello Muhammad (MON) was among the first to congratulate the Honourable Minister as he extended appreciation to President Muhammadu Buhari on Pantami’s feat.
“With over 160 publications, a PhD in Computing and Information Systems, two Master’s Degrees and Bachelors in Computer Science, as well as Certificates from Havard, MIT and Oxford Universities, it’s no coincidence that the Ministry of Communications and Digital Economy has recorded a number of unprecedented achievements in two years under his administration,” the Governor said in a statement he personally signed.
We at Muslim News also rejoice with the Honourable Minister on his successes, as we strongly believe that, just as he has been working in the last two years, his new academic achievement will further help his Ministry to tackle and find lasting solutions to the (cyber) security challenges bedeviling the country.
