Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, Dr. Didi Esther Walson-Jack, announced this at a briefing in Abuja on Wednesday to commemorate the 2025 African Public Service Day and Civil Service Week.
Speaking at the event, Walson-Jack said the move is in line with the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan 2021–2025, which is set to conclude at the end of the year.
She said, “Even before I assumed office, the OHCSF had already gone paperless. We are now working to accelerate this transformation across all MDAs.
“Just last week, I was at the Federal Ministry of Health to launch their Enterprise Content Management Systems making them the 11th ministry to go paperless. The rest are at varying stages of implementation.
“We have engaged partners to help fund digital transitions in some of the ministries. The race to December 31, 2025, is on, and with hard work and God’s grace, the Nigerian Civil Service will be fully paperless by December 31, 2025.”
Walson-Jack further outlined the activities scheduled to mark the 2025 African Public Service Day and Civil Service Week.
She also said a recent study tour to Singapore was part of preparatory activities aimed at positioning Nigeria’s civil service for excellence and attracting global participation in the upcoming events.
“The study tour to Singapore was the first major activity we undertook under the collaboration between the Office of the Head of Civil Service of the Federation and the Heads of Service of the 36 states and the FCT,” she said.
According to her, the visit, supported by the United Nations Development Programme, involved 20 State Heads of Service and was designed to benchmark best global practices and enhance Nigeria’s public service delivery.
“The idea was born out of our ongoing collaboration, where we share ideas and knowledge across federal and state levels,” she added.
