Nigeria has taken confident actions to eliminate the digital gender divide.

According to the World Bank, the rise of digital entrepreneurship in Nigeria is leading to economic empowerment and decreasing poverty through increased access to the internet. In their January report, the Bank found that internet access contributed to a 7% decrease in extreme poverty in Nigeria.
