The Nigerian Government’s National Digital Economy and E-Governance Act, 2024, aims to advance digital transformation across economic and governance processes. This comprehensive framework is designed to bolster electronic transactions, enhance digital government services, and ensure the security and integrity of digital interactions. Key strengths include legal recognition for electronic contracts, digital signatures, and enhanced consumer protection.
However, implementation challenges may arise, particularly in areas with limited technological infrastructure. The Act is expected to promote e-commerce, streamline government services, and support cross-border digital transactions.
