Person wey no fit define Coding want to jail someone for Coding 🤦🏿♂️😂😂.






go to university read IT related courses pay school fees for 4yrs get a certificate from the university do your national service after national service look for jobs jobs say they need 4 years experience start something for yourself using your IT skills NITA says it’s illegal so come and pay them so the evaluate you and give you certificate to certify that you are an iT specialist. think of doing remote IT jobs. NITA says that’s illegal too because they haven’t certified you. you start to wonder why you went to the university in the first place.

Is it not the same as teachers, nurses, lawyers and other professionals who need license before they work? You guys want the country to work until it’s time to okay your role.




I have always reiterated that personally and officially, I am always open to informed and constructive criticism and opinions. Criticisms that jump on bandwagon trends and fail to be based on fact are treated with contempt because they are not only mischievous but intended to misinform. To all the 'IT Professionals' who all of a sudden are making all manner of spurious claims that the @MoCDTI through its Agency - @NITAGhana - is acting illegally, please read the National Information Technology Agency Act, 2008 (Act 771), Electronic Transactions Act, 2008 (Act 772), the Fees and Charges (Miscellaneous Provisions) Regulations, 2023 (L.I. 2481) and the Fees and Charges (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Amendments) Regulations 2025 (L.I. 2512). The Ministry is simply ENFORCING existing legislation that has been on our books since 2008, 2023 and 2025. The proposed new legislation has NOT even been laid before Parliament. I welcome anyone to point out which specific action of the Agency is NOT backed by a provision under the stated legislation. We have a Country to build, and we will ensure enforcement and sanity in our Technology space. Cheers.
