Dear All,
I trust you are all doing well
this new year.
For those of you who do not know
(of) me, I am Chukwuyere Izuogu, a Solicitor and telecoms legal researcher. I presently
head the Abuja office of the law office of Streamsowers & Kóhn, and I am also
a research fellow at the African Academic Network on Internet Policy (ANNoIP),
where my practice and research is in all areas of competition, telecommunications,
information technology and intellectual property law. In September of 2018, I commenced
a Tech Policy Fellowship with the Mozilla Foundation where I will be conducting
policy/academic research and engaging stakeholders on issues related to net
neutrality and data protection in Nigeria.
As these are topical public
policy issues which are consistent with the work you and your organizations are
involved in, I deem it important to inform you at this time of my fellowship
work and keep you updated on the progress. Upon completion of my fellowship
research a Mozilla sponsored workshop will be held probably in Abuja where the
outcome of my researches would be made available to an enlarged stakeholder
group and community members, as my intention is to see how these researches can
also be incorporated into each of your advocacy work in this space.
As time goes on, I am likely to
require your input in clarifying several issues concerning my policy researches.
In addition, I would be happy to respond to any question any of you may have
about my fellowship work and the status so far.
All the best in 2019!
I remain, Chuks.
