The initiative followed a courtesy visit by the NITDA Director-General to the newly appointed FCC Executive Chairman, Hulayat Motunrayo Omidiran, aimed at deepening institutional cooperation to accelerate digital transformation and improve efficiency within the public sector.
The three-day workshop, held from February 23 to 25, 2026, at the FCC Auditorium in Abuja, brought together 35 participants drawn from key departments, including Human Resources, Planning and Strategy, Monitoring and Enforcement, and the Management Information System (MIS) unit.
Speaking at the event, Hon. Omidiran commended NITDA’s support, describing the training as critical to repositioning the Commission and over 700 MDAs under its oversight for enhanced efficiency, transparency, and accountability.
One of the participants, Director of Monitoring and Enforcement, Garba Umar Wudil, noted that the FCC is a data-driven organisation and said the training equipped participants with skills in data analysis, visualisation, and the use of artificial intelligence for effective operational management. He also lauded NITDA for providing laptops to support the practical application of the skills acquired.
At the conclusion of the workshop, 35 laptops were presented to participants to enhance hands-on learning. Both NITDA and the FCC reaffirmed their commitment to sustained collaboration, leveraging digital tools to strengthen transparency, accountability, and efficiency in public service delivery.
