Egube, who was represented by the Special Adviser to the Lagos State Governor on Economic Planning and Budget, Bayo Sodade, added that the electronic platform, when fully built, will enable seamless interaction between government and citizens.

He said, “The opening of the Lagos State Project Management Report Tracker portal was to digitise the pre-payment certification as well as to enable citizens accessibility to government projects and programmes in real-time.

The world today is becoming increasingly smart and digitalised and these technologies are virtually becoming the bedrock of our everyday activities which cannot be ignored.

“It is in this vein that the Project Management Report Tracker was developed to ease and fast track pre-payment certification through digitisation and at the same time make the government accountable to the public through transparency of programmes and projects.”

A representative of Mydes Lynk Partners, Mr Tumi Adeyemi, explained that the platform allows citizens to have easy access to information on government projects and programmes.
