# Nigeria

## Building safe and inclusive DPI

Nigeria is driving technology and innovation, boosting both offline and online commerce for small businesses and services. In 2023, the Federal Ministry of Communication Innovation and Digital Economy spearheaded efforts to build safe and inclusive digital public infrastructure. Partnering with UNICEF and the National Population Commission, Nigeria is working towards registering 15 million unregistered children under five, linking civil registration with digital IDs to improve health outcomes. As Nigeria implements these changes, there is a commitment to adopting Universal DPI Safeguards, ensuring inclusivity and protection as digital infrastructure expands.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://safedpi.gitbook.io/safeguards/country-implementation/implementation-around-the-world/nigeria.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
