  Nigeria's remarkable information and communication technology (ICT) journey
spans decades, playing a pivotal role in economic sustainability, especially as
the nation celebrates its Republic at Sixty. This paper provides an overview of
Nigeria's ICT journey, underscoring its central role in sustainable economic
prosperity. We explore the potential of artificial intelligence, blockchain,
and the Internet of Things (IoT), revealing the remarkable opportunities on the
horizon. We stress the urgency of achieving digital inclusivity, bridging the
urban-rural gap, and reducing the technological divide, all of which are
critical as Nigeria marks its sixtieth year. We intend to prove the invaluable
opportunities of ICT for policymakers, business leaders, and educational
institutes as Nigeria looks towards enduring economic development in this
digital age. Specifically, we envision a dynamic landscape where emerging
technologies are set to redefine industries, supercharge economic growth, and
enhance the quality of life for every Nigerian.
