Edo, Zinox reach agreement on ICT tools deployment

The Edo State Government and Zinox Group will on Monday today sign an agreement for the supply of Information Communication Technology tools to deepen reforms in the state’s civil and public service.

Addressing journalists in Benin City, Special Adviser to Edo State Governor on Strategy, Policy, Projects and Performance Management, Sarah Esangbedo Ajose-Adeogun, said the state government was working with Zinox as a technology partner to boost capacity of the public and civil service through the deployment of digital tools.

She said the government would sign a deal with Zinox on Monday for the supply of ICT tools.

She added that the agreement would kick start a long-lasting process to digitise government processes.

She said, “The agreement is also an expression of the Edo State Government’s desire to support indigenous businesses and grow Nigeria’s GDP.”

Ajose-Adeogun said the deployment of these ICT tools would support the Edo State Government Civil and Public Service Transformation programme.
