The Nigerian Senate has no competence on 5G – fifth generation mobile network, that technology with the kind of capacity that can overawe any other technology in terms of speed.

Members of the Senate can also acquire this knowledge. But they will not. That is what their legislative assistants are supposed do, specializing in different endeavors of life. They can actually get consultants to help them on any issue under the sun. But that is not the way we treat knowledge.

On 5G, the world will move on without Nigeria
