Chris Lu, the chief executive officer, Huawei Nigeria, has expressed commitment to grow and build more infrastructure in order to support the boosting and development of the digital economy of Nigeria.

Lu made this known during the launch of local cloud infrastructure in Lagos, recently.

While acknowledging the support of Federal Government and Lagos State, he noted that the company enjoyed huge support which has contributed to the growth of the business in Nigeria as evidenced in the investment of local loud infrastructure.

He equally appreciated the effort of Dr. Bosun Tijani, the minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, in the development of the initiative, saying the country supports digital innovation.

He said:

“We are building our local cloud in Nigeria, and I think there are three important aspects. The first one is performance. Having a local cloud means we can provide our customers with a much better performance in terms of latency, you experience less than 15 milliseconds unlike if you are using cloud service from Ireland or other markets, which is more than one to 20 milliseconds. So, this ultra-performance is one thing that we are bringing to the market. The second one is about trust.

“As I said, having your own data in Nigeria, in Lagos provides a lot of confidence and trust for our customers, also provides a lot of trust for the government, for the regulators who believe it’s important for the entrepreneurs to have their own company’s data, have their own consumers data in Nigeria, this is about data sovereignty.

“The third one is about commitment. Building a local cloud means we’re operating locally in the long term, because Huawei has been here for 25 years, we’re going to be staying here for another 25 years, and operating our own local cloud is a strong commitment, showing Huawei is willing to develop an ecosystem with all our local partners together for the future.

He stressed that the company continue to see the huge potential in the Nigerian market adding that it would continue to invest in the fast growing digital economy regardless of the challenges.

“I would say Huawei sees a huge potential in the Nigerian market, not only because of the vast majority of the population, and all the advanced developers, but also the fast-growing digital economy. Also, I see great talents in Nigeria with a lot of young talents that are so professional, and efficient, and that’s why we strongly believe in the opportunity. In terms of challenges, I would say the infrastructures are still in the way of growing. That’s also the reason why we are supporting.
