He said; “collaboration with the military will open huge opportunity for the Center to explore manufacturing of locally made military hardwares that will be used in fighting criminal elements”.

Garba informed his audience that, NCAIR as digital innovation and research facility, is focused on Artificial Intelligence (AI), Robotics and Drones, Internet of Things (IOT) and other emerging technologies that can be deployed to a mission area so as to provide intelligence report which, he said,can be manufactured at a low cost.

“NCAIR focuses on creating a thriving ecosystem for innovation driven entrepreneurship IDE, job creation and national development”, he explained.
