No. Lagos clients are served by our global delivery team, remotely and on-site for workshops and key milestones, with in-country partners where a project needs local presence. Every enquiry gets a reply within 6 hours. ### What changed with the NDPC's GAID? The General Application and Implementation Directive, in force since September 2025, sets out how the Nigeria Data Protection Act is applied in practice, including compliance audits, breach reporting and cross-border transfers. It replaced the older NDPR regime. ### Can data stay in Nigeria? Yes. We deploy in Lagos data centres or on-premises, and only use cloud regions outside Nigeria where your transfer assessment allows it.
