On behalf of the Nigeria Internet Registration Association (NiRA), I say a big thank you to everyone reading our newsletters, engaging and collaborating with us and registering their businesses online with .ng domain names. We appreciate your support in projecting Nigerian businesses online, waving the Nigeria flag in cyberspace and moving the .ng brand forward.
We are now in the yuletide season and it is time to take stock and send out good wishes. On behalf of the NiRA Executive Board of Directors and NiRA staff, our warmest regards, appreciation and good wishes to all, the National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA), various NiRA Stakeholders, Members of NiRA, Affiliates, NiRA Board of Trustees, Service Providers and all the supporters of the .ng brand.
The year 2019 was an eventful year at NiRA. We organized various activities aimed at developing the DNS industry in Nigeria, creating and deepening the awareness of the Nigerian Online identity, Corporate social responsibility, etc. We thoroughly enjoyed hosting and participating at these events.
We collaborated with various stakeholders on initiatives that will develop, contribute and deepen the growth of the Digital Economy in Nigeria. NiRA has always explained and projected that the Internet changes the way we do business. The growth in our digital economy would present opportunities and positively impact the Nigerian GDP.
Indeed for NiRA, the year 2019 had been very busy, resourceful and productive. But it is now time to focus on the opportunities and challenges of the year 2020 and years ahead. We conclude by using this media to wish all the very best of the incoming year 2020 and years ahead.
