Edo State Governor orders review of state e-governance platform amid data security concerns.

Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo ordered a review of the state's e-governance platform after discovering it was operated by unknown non-state actors. This has raised serious data security concerns, as no one within the state's public service has administrative control. The review aims to give the state government full control of the platform while it continues to operate. Former governor Godwin Obaseki criticized the move, arguing the platform is run by the state's ICT Agency with expert support.
