This oil will one day finish or become useless to the economy. Even now, we see uncertainties with prices of crude oil globally. With all these possible predictions, what could be the solution to global collapse of oil prices? What could be the safe haven for regional and global economies, when crude oil becomes unattractive? Therefore, we shall look at how technology salvages world’s economy through innovations and business diversity to cushion the effect of dwindling oil relevance. Some streams of tech economy such as ICT, artificial intelligence and robotics, nano technology and material chemistry and engineering, etc all form […]

Just recently, it was on news that the Federal Government of Nigeria may soon embark on the development of the nuclear reactor technology which shall supply some major percentage of electricity generated in the country. So far, public opinion on this issue have been divided. Personally, I feel that a better understanding of what the nuclear reactor technology is can help you discern whether it shall be a blessing or curse to Nigeria. I conducted some primary research on the nuclear technology and its electricity generation capabilities but I did not stop there. I also ran some insights into the […]
