NITDA reaffirms partnership drive, canvasses renewed commitment to SRAP 2.0 implementation
The National Information Technology Development Agency (NITDA) has reaffirmed the importance of strategic partnerships and stakeholder collaboration in advancing Nigeria’s digital transformation agenda, calling for renewed commitment to the implementation of its strategic roadmap and action plan.
The Director General of NITDA, Kashifu Inuwa, who was represented by Dr Aristotle Onumo, Director, Special Duties Directorate made the remarks during the SRAP 2.0 Stakeholders’ Engagement at Lagos Business School, Lagos State.
Inuwa commended the leadership of Lagos Business School for sustaining the partnership with the agency, noting that collaboration and collective intelligence remained critical to achieving meaningful progress in Nigeria’s digital ecosystem.
He stressed that the impact of the agency’s initiatives could be deepened through stronger partnerships, adding that inclusive stakeholder participation was essential to delivering sustainable results in the country’s digital transformation efforts.
According to him, the strategic roadmap and action plan were developed through extensive stakeholder consultations and collaborative engagements, rather than as an internal document produced without external input.
He noted that stakeholders, including members of Lagos Business School, actively participated in developing the document, making their continued involvement in reviewing its implementation necessary.
The DG explained that the engagement provided an opportunity to assess progress, determine whether existing priorities remained relevant, identify areas requiring modification and establish whether the initiatives were delivering their intended impact.
He emphasised that the review was also necessary to evaluate progress against commitments made to stakeholders and ensure that the agency’s programmes continued to respond to the evolving needs of Nigeria’s digital ecosystem.
