dc.description.abstractIn the early 2000s, the federal government of Nigeria announced the initiative of the government to go digital to enhance the operation of the government in providing public services in a transparent, effective and efficient means. Sixteen years after the launch of e-government, this paper dwells into investigating the level of Nigeria's e-government progress as well as taking note of the drawbacks that has inhibited its fast development, as well as look into world best practices that Nigeria can adopt and adapt. This is done by carrying out study on the international e-government assessment and research by the United Nations E-government Development Index Survey (EGDI) and web surveys of selected federal government ministries/agencies. The study survey reveals that Nigeria's e-government performance has been a mix of failure and success over the years.From the study, factors responsible for this include reduced budgetary allocation for ICT, power failure, infrastructure challenge, digital divide, etc. To overcome this challenges, this study concludes and recommended that Nigeria needs to adopt and adapt some best practices principles applied in some countries ranked high in e-government.en_US
