Bosun Tijani Elected Vice Chair of ITU Council

The Minister of Communications, Innovation, and Digital Economy, Dr. Bosun Tijani, has been elected Vice Chair of the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Council for 2025.

The announcement was made during the ongoing ITU Council meetings in Geneva, Switzerland. Tijani confirmed the development via a post on X (formerly Twitter) on Tuesday, describing the election as a significant recognition of Nigeria’s growing influence in global digital governance.

“It is a profound honour to be elected Vice Chair of the ITU Council 2025,” Tijani wrote. “I thank the ITU leadership and member states for this trust and look forward to working closely with Council Chair Cristiana Flutur and fellow members to advance our shared mission of inclusive digital development.”

The ITU Council serves as the decision-making body that governs the operations of the United Nations’ specialised agency for telecommunications and digital infrastructure between Plenipotentiary Conferences. The Council plays a vital role in shaping global policies on digital connectivity, innovation, and cyber governance.

Tijani said his appointment comes at a time when cross-border cooperation is essential to securing a connected, secure, and sustainable digital future. He pledged to leverage the position to drive international dialogue on key issues such as resilient digital infrastructure, meaningful internet access, cybersecurity, and the promotion of trusted public digital platforms.

“Through this new responsibility, I will champion global collaboration around resilient infrastructure, meaningful access, digital literacy, cybersecurity, and trusted digital public infrastructure,” he said. “This builds on the progress we’re already making and will help shape digital policies that empower people everywhere.”

The minister also emphasised the significance of the role in aligning global engagement with Nigeria’s national digital priorities. He said the position would not only amplify Nigeria’s voice in international policy forums but also reinforce the country’s domestic push for digital transformation under President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda.

“As minister, I see this role as an opportunity to strengthen our voice on the global stage while deepening our commitment at home,” Tijani added. “From expanding connectivity in underserved areas to equipping young Nigerians with digital skills, our goals align strongly with the ITU’s vision of leaving no one behind in the digital revolution.”

The ITU, established in 1865, is the oldest UN agency and remains at the forefront of global efforts to bridge the digital divide and establish standards for modern communications technology.
