Good one.

More states should follow, and adopt adequate Cybersecurity, i heard the blockchain can be useful as a ledger or id

Cool

I hope one day real estate titles can have a verification portal.

No comment......

Good one, Edo lead others follow

Do the civil servants have official email? How many civil servants in Edo state are computer literate. Does the state have the a tech team to manage Thier web mails? All this questions need to be answered before releasing any circular. This is just a knee jerk decision just like the one Baba blu made at eagle square that has sent millions of Nigerians into untold hardship.

Better.. Other states should follow suit for a more credible government

The few good roads in Benin were done by the previous administrations.
No single good road in benin city, schools dead, electricity dead, security dead, no single form of development for a whole seven years under this coconut head man.

God knows I dislike this man, I wish he can be my sugar daddy so I can also chop my share of the national cake

Obaseki please tell me you love me, I want to show you something.

Ok

Edo no be Lagos true true........

Simple, computerize everything

Doings

Like for Obaseki
Share for Shaibu

The country as a whole should learn from this, especially those at immigration office. Why ask me to fill a form when you can get every information about me from my NIN or BVN.

Not practical

Initial gra gar, u no get stable power supply, u wan do e governance, with the new power law signed by tinubu, instead of the governor to look for investor to set up an IPP plant , he is doing white elephant e governance , dey play

We go ask how far 3 months from now

Reduction in cost of government

Edo State always leading with innovations. Nice 1 from the Governor.

So that they can easily manipulate data.
It supposed to be backed up by paper not cancellations. Any challenges or accusations will be easier to manipulate and traces deleted.
Thieves in governance.

Maazieze:
More states should follow, and adopt adequate Cybersecurity, i heard the blockchain can be useful as a ledger or id

Cybersecurity is a myth.
If you keep important data, you will get hacked sooner or later.
BTW, blockchain is all hype. It adds zero value to most systems.

Maazieze:

The governor will never use BLockchain.
Because, it will mean that N1 no go ever miss again

Noted.

Stop praising nonsense. Even more advanced countries still make use of physical files, e get why.

It should have been categorized that majority of the works be moved online not all

The federal government should adopt this model if it works well.

Let Edo State be the pioneer state.

Tech promotes transparency and accountability

A promise by one Federal Government MDA some years back but still went back to paper again.

ok

Ok
