The Arewa Professional Forum (APF) has called on the Federal Government to expedite the implementation of digital governance and a paperless administration across Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs). In a statement released on July 31, 2026, APF's National President, Comrade Auwal Muhammed, emphasized that recent issues related to the Presidential Foreign Intervention Promotion Council (PFIPC) highlight the necessity of strengthening institutional systems rather than placing blame. The Forum pointed out that ongoing public service reforms, driven by technology, are essential for preventing administrative lapses. They praised the leadership of the Head of the Civil Service, Mrs. Didi Esther Walson-Jack, for her role in advancing digital innovation within the Federal Civil Service. The APF noted that the transition to digital platforms enhances transparency, accountability, and efficiency in governance. They believe that a fully digitized system will significantly reduce administrative errors and bolster public trust in government institutions. The Forum concluded that the benefits of these reforms are already being observed, particularly in Northern Nigeria, where federal agencies have improved their digital service delivery.
