LAGOS—The Federal Government through the Minister of Communications, Chief Adebayo Shittu has called on Africa’s leading phone maker, Techno Mobile to setup its production line in Nigeria just as they have done in Ethiopia, to serve not only her almost 200 million population but also the West Africa sub region and consequently create jobs for her teeming youths. Adebayo Shittu said this at the unveiling of Camon X and Camon X Pro, a new revolutionary smartphone manufactured by Techno Mobile in Lagos, recently. Acknowledging past governments’ failures and inability to provide an enabling environment for investors to setup locally, Shittu said: “I want to appeal to TECNO Mobile that we are ready to partner with you. We will assist you in every possible way to encourage you.” Speaking on the uniqueness of the latest CAMON smartphones, the General Manager, Techno Mobile, Stephen Ha, reemphasized the brand’s willingness to set up local production lines in Nigeria, highlighting a couple of bottlenecks in the process. “Nigeria is a key interest market for us and we have considered setting up a massive factory here that will not only create a lot of jobs for Nigerians but also empower her Millennials with key interests in technology to get hands-on and be more involved in the development and design of the world’s next revolutionary smartphones,” he said.
