The Surveyor-General of the Federation, Abuduganiyu Adebomehin, has emphasised the urgent need for Nigeria to establish approximately 149 satellite stations across the country.
He said these stations are essential to provide real-time imaging capabilities, which will greatly enhance the nation’s ability to respond swiftly in emergencies and improve national security by assisting in the identification and elimination of terrorists and bandits.
He explained that the United Nations had directed countries to install Continuously Operating Reference Stations, with Nigeria needing 200 stations.
He said only 51 out of the 200 required in the country have been developed with assistance from some private organisations.
