long-term strategy, in most cases estimated to mature in an average of
20-30 years, preliminary studies under the Nigerian Government S&T develop-
ment programme have indicated that existing cluster of STI institutions in various
parts of the country can be refocused to deliver viable S&T parks. The primary
sample clusters presented in this chapter included:
(a) Sheda RIs Cluster that could evolve into an Agricultural S&T Park;
(b) IT Park at Lugbe;
(c) Multipurpose Park at Idu;
(d) Multipurpose Park in Zaria;
(e) University S&T Park in Ife;
(f) Steel Engineering Park, Lokoja;
(g) Oil and Gas Park in Port-Harcourt;
(h) The Benue State Zonal S&T Parks Limited and
(i) The Abuja Science City.
The main gainful product of these innovations is the evolution of Abuja
Technopolis, the first of its kind in sub-saharan Africa.
This technique might be a useful tool for adoption in many developing coun-
tries particularly in Africa.
