The Rivers State Governor, Mr Siminalayi Fubara, said his administration would leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to tackle political crisis and drive development in the state.
Governor Fubara spoke, when participants of the Executive Intelligence Management Course (EIMC-17 Syndicate 5) of the National Institute for Security Studies (NISS) paid him a courtesy visit at Government House in Port Harcourt.
The governor stated that the advanced societies were accelerating the use of AI because it enables a faster data-driven decision-making process and allows administrations to make more informed choices that are based on accurate and real-time insights.
“Today, we are moving from the aspect of physical battle to intellectual battle and Artificial Intelligence is the right model to use to fight crime.
“As a State, we did not hesitate to accept your invitation because we want to tap into it. We want to be part of this success, knowing fully well that your success.
Governor Fubara assured that his administration was determined to work with the institute to build a strong synergy that will ease the processes of governance.
Governor Fubara stressed the need for state members to work as a team for a great state.
Such teamwork, he noted, will diminish tendencies to engage in unhealthy rivalry, and frustrate politics of bitterness, particularly because government was a continuum.”
