The Honourable Minister, Dr. ‘Bosun Tijani today announced the launch of Project 774 LG Connectivity targeted at fostering inclusive development and access to digital public infrastructure in government offices located all over Nigeria, including the most remote areas of the country that may have been previously underserved or unserved.
The project which will leverage the existing infrastructure of the Nigerian Communications Satellite Limited (NigComSat) and Galaxy Backbone, will provide connectivity to all 774 Local Government Secretariats across Nigeria.
According to the Honourable Minister: “Project 774 LG Connectivity will create at least 300 direct jobs as we deploy nationwide and potentially more jobs indirectly from the increase in digital access.
“It is also aligned with our Ministry’s Strategic Blueprint and a significant step in achieving President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s mandate to deliver efficient public service to our citizens at the LG level,” Dr. Tijani added.
The project is expected to drive transformation and unlock opportunities that will deliver sustainable development for all, through the power of connectivity.
Through strategic partnerships and the deployment of cutting-edge technology, Project 774 LG Connectivity will provide local governments with reliable and affordable internet access and resources required to deliver efficient public services, promote transparency in service delivery, stimulate economic growth and improve citizen engagement. The project is expected to drive transformation and unlock opportunities that will deliver sustainable development for all, through the power of connectivity.
From healthcare and education to infrastructure development and social welfare programs, local government administrations are critical in the delivery of government services as well as driving economic progress and development across the nation.
