Nigeria's Federal Government approves the National Research and Innovation Development Fund (NRIDF), targeting $500 million annually to drive research, innovation, and commercialization. Education Minister Tunji Alausa announced the initiative to foster collaborations, strengthen infrastructure, and support President Tinubu's $1 trillion economy goal, drawing lessons from South Korea and Singapore.
