AI Ethics, Risk and Governance is a six-week deep-dive into the responsible AI questions every Nigerian organisation, regulator and citizen now has to engage with. Building on AI Foundations, it covers where AI causes harm, what the Nigeria Data Protection Act 2023 actually requires, what the National AI Strategy commits the country to, how to assess and audit AI risk, and how to build responsible AI practice into an organisation. Every module is grounded in Nigerian law, Nigerian cases, and Nigerian institutional reality, with international context where useful.
