This is sequel to the fact that Cuba’s global reputation in biotechnology, health innovation, and technical education aligns with Nigeria’s development priorities, to which the present administration is committed to building an innovation-led and self-reliant economy.

Nigeria’s Minister of Innovation Science and Technology, Uche Nnaji said this when the Cuban Ambassador to Nigeria, Mrs. Miriam Morales Palmero and her team paid a courtesy visit to his office, in Abuja, adding that Nigeria and Cuba have for long shared a history of friendship as Nigeria seeks to strengthen that bond through deeper collaboration in Science, Technology, and Innovation.

He further said that Cuba’s example of technological resilience is an inspiration, and Nigeria is ready and willing to seize the opportunity to deliver lasting impact through innovation-driven cooperation, a statement issued by the spokesperson of the Ministry Pauline Sule said.

Nnaji moved for an expanding partnership between the two countries in the area of Innovation and Technology Transfer, Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM), Renewable Energy, Research Exchange and Agricultural Biotech amongst others.
