Implementation of STI Policy
•
•
•
•
You may recall that in 2013, we reported the successful revision of Nigeria’s
STI policy which was supported by UNESCO, UNDP and the World Bank. This
revised policy aims to transform and optimise STI for Nigeria’s self reliance,
global competitiveness, enterprise development, wealth and job creation.
The Revised STI Policy articulates the establishment of National Research and
Innovation Council (NRIC) with a view to entrenching a viable National
System of Innovation with focus on inclusive growth and facilitating Federal,
Sectoral, Regional, State, and Local level Innovations.
The priority areas of focus by NRIC in line with the STI for Africa 2024 Strategy
Science, Technology and Innovation Strategy for Africa 2024 (STISA-2024)
include the following:
Eradicate Hunger and Achieve Food and Nutrition Security
Prevent and Control Diseases and ensure welfare
Develop physical and intellectual communication
Protect our space
Live Together- Build the Community
Wealth Creation
I am happy to inform you that as a step towards implementing the revised
Policy, Mr. President inaugurated the NRIC on 18th February 2014.

Implementation of Ward Based Cluster Programme (WBCP)
• Importantly, Nigeria is taking a pragmatic approach at actualizing an STI led
inclusiveness and inclusive growth at the grassroots through the novel WBCP. It
provides the platform for the demonstration and further deployment of requisite
technologies for value addition to the resource endowments of each of the 9,555
political wards into useful products and services.
• WBCP when fully implemented, will not only create wealth and jobs at the ward (local)
level through spin off enterprises but will also support the development of local
capacity and talent
• Some of the activities already undertaken in respect of the WBCP are:
Mapping of the raw materials in the 9,555 political wards nationwide
The planning of the pilot projects has commenced (land, skills acquisition,
identification of existing SMEs that can buy into the projects etc)
Seven pilot projects were selected for implementation across the six geo-political
zones of the country
•
The technologies to be deployed in ensuring food security include :
Cassava Processing
Plantain Processing
Fish Processing
Okra Processing
Oil Palm Processing
Milk Processing
Tomato Processing etc.
Achievement under Policy and programmes....contd
Implementation of WBCP
• The success of the pilot project will culminate in the replication of the project in all the
9,555 wards in the country. This is expected to lead to unprecedented level of
employment and wealth creation at the grass root level. The Ministry intends to
establish Skill Acquision Centers (SAC) in all the 36 States and Federal Capital Territory
(FCT) to ensure sustainability of the Project.
• At the 17th Session of the United Nation’s Commission on Science and Technology for
Development (CSTD) which took place in Geneva, Switzerland on 12th May, 2014, the
Ministry’s WBCP was presented. The project when successfully implemented will
generate enormous wealth and job in Nigeria especially among the youths and rural
dwellers.
• Some of the Processing Technologies ready for deployment to the wards:
1.25 Metric Tons Of Fish Per Day Fish Processing
Plant (250kg of 5 units Fish Smoking Kiln)
Oil Palm Processing Plant
Achievements under Policy and Programmes...... contd
Establishment of a Model Science and Technology Park known as
SHESTCO Silicon Valley (SSV) in Abuja
•
•
The SSV Project is modeled after the Triple
Helix to ensure that Government,
Industries
&
Universities/Research
institutions assume some of the
capabilities of the other, even as each
maintains its primary role and distinct
identity.
The SHESTCO Technology Park general
framework is geared to:
Create a platform for efficient transfer of
technology from the academic and
research institutions to the business
community.
Encourage start-ups by providing cheap
space, facilities, and business advisory.
Evolve a system that encourages and
rewards innovation.
Create a platform that facilitates patenting
of innovations and protection of
intellectual property.

• UNESCO Expert Mission to Nigeria in August, 2013 geared towards
providing technical support in the development of SSV. The UNESCO
Experts were drawn from Surrey Research Park, UK and the World
Technopolis Association (WTA).
• The UNESCO team has produced a report on the visit which will help
to produce a more detailed operational business plan for SSV and
provide some arguments and a third party view that may be helpful
in matching plans with stakeholder aspirations and potential
national and international funding opportunities.

In line with the Transformation Agenda, the Ministry is focused on boosting
Agricultural Raw Materials through the following activities:
The RMRDC procured 1.6 and 2.0 tons of Samcot 11 and 13 varieties of
cotton respectively from the Institute of Agricultural Research (IAR),
ABU, Zaria and distributed them to members of the National Cotton
Association of Nigeria (NACOTAN) in six States including Oyo, Ondo,
Ekiti, Osun and Edo States. This is targeted at increasing cotton yield to
feed the textile industry that is almost comatose due to insufficiency of
raw materials or reliance on imported cotton resulting in undue
competition.
Improved oil palm seedlings for one hectare of land expected to have
shorter maturity period and increase the oil yield were through RMRDC
procured for AICO Projects Ltd.
The Oyo State Sugarcane Farmers Union Ltd. was provided with 60
tonnes of sugarcane seeds for their sugarcane farm clusters.
These programmes are projected to create 20,000 jobs along the
agricultural and industrial manufacturing value chain over a period of 5
years.

All the hand gloves and balloons sold in

products which are mainly imported from
China are not durable. They wear and tear
very easily and offer very little protection
against caustic chemicals. The product which
is made from National rubber has passed
through very rigorous production process
with about the best technology available. It is
more durable and offers better protection.

NEEM SOAP AND TOOTHPASTE
AGRO-SACKS PRODUCTION
Utilization of the antimicrobial agent in Neem oil in the
production of cosmetics products such as Neem soap &
Neem toothpaste by FIIRO
Industrial use of these fibre sourced from Kenaf,
banana and plantain which is widely available in the
country for production of a commercially relevant
packaging material will reduce dependency on
imported packaging materials (jute bags) whilst
creating a more environmentally friendly and more
effective alternative for packaging of agro products.
FIIRO is working with RMRDC on this and a Training
Module for training of unemployed youth and
women on the use of the extracted fibres to produce
agro-sacks and various types of handicrafts is being
developed.

250-litre Batch Pasteurizer
The RMRDC initiated the fabrication of a scrubber to assist gypsum miners
in Yobe, Gombe and other gypsum producing states of the country to
wash the mined gypsum in order to increase the purity. This Scrubber is
completed and the test run carried out on low grade gypsum samples
obtaining almost 100% clean Gypsum.
If successfully deployed, the equipment will boost the production of
gypsum, create employment opportunities horizontally and vertically
along the value-chain and ensure that high quality gypsum is supplied to
the cement as well as the Plaster of Paris industries in Nigeria.
RMRDC in collaboration with Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife and
National Automotive Council, sponsored the “Production of automotive
brake pad and lining using palm kernel shell (PKS) as friction material to
replace asbestos based brake pad”, which is carcinogenic. Samples of
palm kernel based brake pad produced met the Standards Organization of
Nigeria (SON) standards and the SAE J661 certification after being tested
at LINK in USA. This breakthrough is directly supporting the new auto
policy, which is aimed at ensuring the emergence of assembly plants in
Nigeria.

Financial Savings
The intervention of NOTAP has led to financial savings for the
country, which would have been unremitted due to over
invoicing of technology transfer fees.
Since the inception of NOTAP, it has made a financial savings
in billions of naira, due to its intervention in the process of
evaluation and registration of technology transfer
agreements.

CHALLENGES
Skill gaps (inadequate) in technology services
Inadequate and poor institutional capacity
Weak linkages/networking between Government,
Industry and Research Institutes
Lack of interest in taking up R&D outcomes by
entrepreneurs
Lack of incentives to entrepreneurs to promote
prototypes made by various research institutes into
commercializable ventures
Enabling law(s) for the research institution and new
technologies eg. Bio-safety Law
Poor and untimely release of funds which have adverse
