The Director General of NITDA, Kachifu Abdullahi made the disclosure during the inauguration of a Multi-Stakeholder Coordination Group (MSCG) to strengthen the national digital governance framework.

“From IT Project Clearance instrument in Ministries, Department and Agencies (MDAs), in collaboration with Office of the Accountant-General of the Federation, we saved over N319 billion for the government in 2025,” Abdullahi said.
