Nigerian institutional governance and digital reforms

Overview

Nigerian state institutions are implementing various structural, governance, and digital reforms to improve efficiency and accountability.

The Investments and Securities Tribunal (IST) announced plans to digitalize operations and adopt new rules of engagement to strengthen investor protection and facilitate access to justice. To address case backlogs, the Tribunal indicated a readiness to sit on weekends and public holidays if required. Officials also noted that inactivity within the Securities and Exchange Commission’s Administrative Proceedings Committee has contributed to delays in the flow of cases.

Other state funds are pursuing similar modernization efforts. The Nigeria Police Trust Fund (NPTF) is working to separate board oversight from daily management to enhance transparency. Meanwhile, the Nigeria Social Insurance Trust Fund (NSITF) has transitioned from manual to digital operations and is conducting staff audits and voluntary exit exercises to address management issues and create a leaner organization.
