From policy to practice: Adedoyin Fadare’s critical role in Nigeria’s data protection era

Published by

Nigeria’s passage of its Data Protection Law in June 2023 marked a significant evolution in the nation’s digital rights landscape—an evolution strongly shaped by the country’s leading technology experts.

Among them, Adedoyin Fadare distinguished himself through his leadership in key stakeholder organisations and advocacy coalitions.

Serving in a leading capacity within national and regional data protection groups, Fadare actively engaged regulatory bodies, civil society, and the private sector prior to the law’s passage.

He helped formulate strategies for clarity and enforcement, elevating the readiness of institutions to transition into a new era of data governance.

Fadare’s leadership extended into public implementation, where he coordinated educational programmes and conducted workshops that enabled organisations across sectors to comply with the new law.

His outreach efforts attracted the attention of regional policymakers, with delegations from Ghana, Rwanda, and Kenya consulting directly with Fadare and his teams for best practices.

National and international stakeholders have recognised his role as pivotal in advancing Nigeria’s and West Africa’s digital rights ecosystem. Fadare’s blend of policy expertise and hands-on leadership demonstrates the performance of a critical role in distinguished, field-shaping organisations.
