This was disclosed in a statement by the Senior Special Assistant to the Vice President on Media and Communications, Stanley Nkwocha, on Monday, 29th of July, 2024.
The statement reads:
“The federal government has announced plans to digitalise 80% of government activities by next year as part of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu administration’s drive towards modernising Nigeria’s public sector.
“The project aims to enhance efficiency, reduce corruption, improve transparency, and bring Nigeria’s public sector in line with global best practices in e-governance.
“Speaking during the opening of a digitalization training programme for staff of the Office Vice President at the State House Conference Hall on Monday, Deputy Chief of Staff to the Nigerian President (Office of the Vice President), Senator Hassan Ibrahim Hadejia said there was an urgent need to transform government operations using digital technologies.
“He said ‘If you don’t go digital, you get to a point where you will even fail to integrate with the rest of the world. Everybody is moving ahead, and you have to get to that level where you can at least get that connectivity’.
“ ‘The Deputy Chief of Staff noted the necessity of leading by example, saying, “If you have a State House that is digitized or has gone paperless, every agency and everybody would be forced to comply’.
“He stressed that compliance must be enforced across all Ministries, Departments, and Agencies to ensure the initiative’s success.” [CONTINUE READING HERE]>>>>
