The Executive Vice Chairman, of the National Agency for Science and Engineering Infrastructure (NASENI), Khalil Halilu made the disclosure on Thursday in Abuja when he briefed journalists on his one year achievements in office.
According to him, the agency plans to commercialise 52 of its own products so that they will be available in the market for Nigerians to buy.
He said: “My first year as Executive Vice Chairman of NASENI has been nothing short of transformative. From the outset, I brought a fresh, dynamic energy to the agency, steering it toward a future where technology and manufacturing are not just buzzwords but driving forces of national development.
“Under my stewardship, NASENI has strengthened partnerships that are laying the groundwork for Nigeria’s Industrial revolution-think cutting-edge projects in reverse engineering, rural electrification, and innovative manufacturing solutions.”
“Next year, I will focus more on enhancing NASENI’s impact on Nigeria’s technological and industrial landscape. One of my primary goals is to ensure the commercialisation of all viable NASENI products, eliminating the practice of letting prototypes gather dust on shelves. In the first year, we focused on strategic partnerships with leading production field players, at home and abroad.”
