In a significant move aimed at modernizing legislative processes and enhancing public engagement, Speaker Tajudeen Abbas of the Nigerian House of Representatives has announced plans to introduce an e-petition system and integrate Information and Communication Technology (ICT) into the operations of the House. This initiative is part of broader efforts to streamline the legislative dispute resolution mechanism and improve transparency in oversight activities.

During the commissioning of the digitalized Hearing Room of the House Public Accounts Committee (PAC) and the unveiling of the PAC News magazine, Speaker Abbas highlighted the importance of ICT in legislative operations. He emphasized that leveraging digital tools would enhance efficiency, accountability, and accessibility in the oversight of public funds. This technological advancement includes equipping the hearing rooms with state-of-the-art infrastructure, such as smart screens and multimedia devices, to facilitate e-hearings and expedite the consideration of cases.

The introduction of e-petitions via an amended Standing Orders of the House will enable Nigerian citizens to submit their grievances electronically, ensuring a more efficient and transparent petition process. This move is intended to democratize access to legislative processes, allowing citizens to engage effectively with lawmakers and seek resolutions to their concerns.

Moreover, the PAC News magazine, launched by the Committee, will serve as a platform for disseminating accurate information about its activities to the media, civil society, and stakeholders. This initiative aims to enhance public understanding of the Committee’s oversight functions and promote dialogue on governance issues.

Chairman Bamidele Salam of the Public Accounts Committee underscored the significance of these innovations in supporting the House’s agenda of open parliament, transparency, and digitalization. He highlighted that the digitalized hearing room will facilitate virtual hearings, reduce paperwork, and enhance the Committee’s capacity to engage with stakeholders in real-time.

The event also featured goodwill messages from key stakeholders, including the Accountant General of the Federation, the Auditor General for the Federation, and representatives from the Nigerian Communications Commission and Policy and Legal Advocacy Centre (PLAC). Their messages affirmed support for the House’s efforts to modernize legislative processes and promote good governance through ICT integration.

In summary, the implementation of the e-petition system and digitalized hearing rooms represents a significant step forward in enhancing legislative efficiency, transparency, and public participation in Nigeria. These initiatives are poised to strengthen the responsiveness of the House of Representatives to the needs and concerns of Nigerian citizens, thereby fostering a more inclusive and accountable governance system.
