Startup founders and tech companies in Nigeria have been forced to contend with legislative roadblocks and a dearth of fundamental conveniences such as a reliable supply of energy, amongst other challenges, for a number of years now.

The Nigeria Startup Bill became law in the middle of 2021. Its primary objective is to help technology-enabled startups in Nigeria create and enhance an environment that will facilitate their rapid growth. The bill that stakeholders and the Federal Government  believe will attract foreign investments and boost local ventures has been signed into law. 

After being signed into effect by President Muhammadu Buhari on the 19th of October, the Bill is now considered to be law. The Nigeria Startup Act 2022 is its official name at this point.

Nevertheless, not only will the Startup Act encourage the expansion of Nigeria’s startup ecosystem, but it will also bring about new investment incentives for the country’s startups. This is one of the main benefits of the legislation. Additionally, it will ready the economy for foreign investments, which would lead to the creation of additional jobs, the acquisition of additional tax revenue, and an increase in Nigeria’s gross domestic product (GDP).

The Nigeria Startup Act

The Nigeria Startup Act 2022 has the goal of making it simpler for regulators and the rest of the startup ecosystem to collaborate, which is something that is typically difficult to achieve. Startups will also discuss policy with government officials and be aware of any policy impediments, particularly those that are still being established but could be detrimental to their firms.

The purpose of the Bill is, among other things, to make it simpler for new enterprises to launch, expand, and continue operations within the country by providing tax advantages, government loans, and credit guarantee schemes for such businesses.

Isa Pantami, Nigeria’s Minister of Communications and Digital Economy, made the announcement on Twitter that his office, along with the Office of the Chief of Staff to the President of the country, was responsible for the inception of the Bill.

Before it was officially signed into law, the Nigerian Startup Act went through a yearlong process that included multiple readings and rounds of debate in the legislature. In July 2022, the Nigerian Senate gave its final approval to the Bill, which meant that it could then be turned into a law.
