  WITTY GLOBAL BLOGS | THURSDAY FLAGSHIP EDITION Africa's $2 Billion Creative Economy Financing Push: What Nigerian Filmmakers, Musicians and Digital Creators Need to Know By Itoro Uwah | Thursday, November 12, 2026 CREATIVE ECONOMY | BUSINESS | TECHNOLOGY | INVESTMENT LAGOS, NIGERIA — Africa's creative economy is attracting renewed attention from development financiers and policymakers, following the Creative Africa Nexus (CANEX) WKND 2026 gathering in Lagos from November 5 to 8. Organised by the African Export-Import Bank (Afreximbank) and hosted by Nigeria, the gathering brought together creative entrepreneurs, investors, policymakers and cultural-industry professionals to explore financing, intellectual property, technology and market access. Afreximbank's CANEX financing ambition has expanded to $2 billion, reflecting a growing institutional effort to support African cultural and creative enterprises.

Godswill Obot Akpabio As The True Concept Of An Uncommon Renewed Hope

Written by Itoro Sunday Uwah.

The emergence of distinguished Senator Godswil Akpabio is a true reflection of "RENEWED HOPE." 

The Senate President of Nigeria is elected by representatives from across the nation rather than appointed by any individual or group. Therefore, it is incorrect to attribute Senator Godswill Akpabio's rise to the position solely to his dynamic qualities or developmental strides as the former governor of Akwa Ibom state. A thorough examination of the leadership styles of Senator Asiwaju Bola Amed Tinubu and Senator Godswil Obot Akpabio reveals that Nigeria has a promising future. I encourage all Nigerians at home and abroad to set aside social, political, tribal, and religious differences and focus on the hope of a better Nigeria.


During his tenure as governor of the Niger Delta Region, Senator Akpabio made significant contributions to the development of Akwa Ibom state. As a minister, he must replicate his passion for serving the country. He is renowned for his administration of excellence, which focuses on implementing various policies and programs to improve human capital development, infrastructure, education, health, and the state's economy. He also encouraged women's involvement in politics and initiated an industrial revolution in the state. His passion for human capital development and good governance led to the famous slogan "Boys are men now in Akwa Ibom State."


It is important to note that while Senator Akpabio may have his supporters and admirers, he has also faced criticism and controversy throughout his political career. It is crucial to have a balanced view of any political figure and acknowledge their achievements and shortcomings. However, when considering Godswil Obot Akpabio's character, one can witness his acceptance by Nigerians nationwide, including his political detractors, runaway friends, children, and associates from all walks of life, celebrating his victory as an uncommon gift to Nigeria leadership.

Akwa Abasi Ibom State.

 Congratulations To Nigerians.

Congratulation To Distinguished Senator Godswill Obot Akpabio.

The Leadership Dilemma: A Call for Personal Excellence in Nigeria. By Itoro Uwah

  Nigeria stands at a critical juncture, grappling with an endemic system crisis that permeates the very fabric of our society. The axiom "you cannot give what you do not have" rings particularly true in these challenging times. This fundamental truth should serve as a compass for every Nigerian and our leaders as they navigate the complexities of governance and national development. To truly move forward, we must embark on an introspective journey that repositions our collective mindset towards personal excellence , a transformation that could reflect positively on our nation's future. Unfortunately, the current generation seems entrapped in a cycle of self-interest and shortsighted priorities. Many appear to have lost sight of the essence of their roles as leaders—an oath taken to secure and protect the citizens of Nigeria. Instead, we observe a disturbing trend: citizens being commodified and reduced to mere tools for personal gain rather than valued members of a t...
