ISACA Abuja Chapter

25/08/2026

Senator Abdul Aziz Musa Yar’Adua did not just honour our invitation — he showed up, engaged deeply, and schooled us on how AI can make Nigeria safer when trust is engineered as a security capability.

It was a powerful and thought-provoking session, filled with insights on the opportunities, risks and responsibilities that come with deploying AI in a rapidly evolving digital landscape. We left with a deeper appreciation of the fact that the future of AI in Nigeria cannot be built on technology alone; it must be anchored in trust, security, responsible governance and resilience.

We were also deeply honoured to have Senator Yar’Adua take us on a tour of the Shehu Musa Yar’Adua Center and Museum, sharing the history, legacy and significance of the remarkable institution and the man whose vision it represents.

From an intellectually stimulating conversation to an unforgettable experience of history and heritage, it was a session we will certainly remember.

Thank you, Senator Abdul Aziz Musa Yar’Adua, for your time, generosity, knowledge and hospitality. We are truly grateful for the opportunity to learn from you and to experience the Yar’Adua Center through your eyes.

What a session. What a privilege. What a memorable day! 🇳🇬
