Abstract

Purpose: This study explores the implementation of digital governance in Lagos, Nigeria, focusing on its impact on public service delivery, accountability, and citizen participation. As Nigeria’s economic hub and Africa’s largest megacity, Lagos provides a unique context for assessing the opportunities and challenges of digital governance in complex urban settings. Subjects and Methods: A mixed-methods approach was used. Quantitative data were collected from 420 residents through structured surveys assessing accessibility, satisfaction, efficiency, and trust in services such as online tax systems, e-health, and land registration. Qualitative insights were obtained from 15 interviews with policymakers, ICT experts, and service providers, along with two focus group discussions with community representatives. Results: Findings reveal that digital governance improves efficiency, reduces bureaucracy, and enhances transparency. Citizens expressed greater satisfaction with online services, though challenges persist, including low digital literacy, weak infrastructure, limited internet access, and institutional resistance. Marginalized communities remain underserved, reflecting a digital divide. Conclusions: Digital governance in Lagos holds transformative potential but requires improved infrastructure, digital education, and institutional commitment to achieve inclusive and equitable access.

Abstract

Purpose: The rapid advancement of digital technologies has significantly transformed governance systems worldwide, creating both opportunities and challenges for inclusive policy development, particularly in developing nations such as Nigeria. This study explores the role of civil society organizations (CSOs) in digital governance, focusing on their capacity to advocate for equitable and transparent technological transformation. Subjects and Methods: Using a mixed-methods approach, the research combined quantitative surveys of 30 Nigerian CSOs with qualitative interviews involving civil society leaders, policymakers, and digital governance experts. Results: The findings reveal that while 72% of CSOs actively engage in digital governance advocacy, their effectiveness is limited by insufficient funding, weak institutional capacity, restricted access to decision-makers, and inadequate technical expertise. Nonetheless, CSOs have developed innovative strategies, including coalition-building, digital platform utilization, and grassroots mobilization, to enhance their advocacy influence. The study further identifies that collaboration with government agencies, international organizations, and the private sector can amplify civil society’s role in shaping inclusive digital policies. Conclusions: It concludes that empowering CSOs through capacity-building, access to digital tools, and participatory policy frameworks is essential to ensure that digital transformation in Nigeria promotes social justice, equity, and democratic accountability. The research contributes to the growing discourse on digital governance by emphasizing the strategic importance of civil society in bridging the gap between technology and inclusive policy-making.

Abstract

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to conduct a comparative assessment of national data governance effectiveness across four key jurisdictions Indonesia, the European Union, India, and China during the period 2010–2024. The analysis aims to identify variations in governance capacity, institutional coordination, enforcement strength, cybersecurity readiness, and public trust, ultimately revealing how different regulatory architectures shape each country’s digital sovereignty and resilience against emerging data risks. Subjects and Methods: The analysis draws on synthesized academic literature, regulatory documents, cybersecurity reports, and official enforcement statistics published between 2010 and 2024. A comparative analytical approach was used to evaluate five core indicators: annual data breach incidents, enforcement actions, cross-border data requests, financial sanctions, and public trust. Data were organized into a unified comparative framework to identify structural strengths and governance gaps. Results: The European Union demonstrates the strongest policy effectiveness, with the highest enforcement capacity (210 actions), substantial cross-border data handling, and the highest public trust score (79). China also shows strong institutional enforcement, though driven by centralized governance and state-centric controls. India reflects transitional progress, balancing growing enforcement with moderate trust levels. Indonesia records the highest breach incidents and the lowest trust score, indicating gaps in institutional readiness, regulatory enforcement, and ecosystem resilience. Conclusions: Overall, the findings highlight that regulatory maturity and institutional coordination significantly shape policy effectiveness. Jurisdictions with coherent governance frameworks and strong enforcement capacities demonstrate higher public trust and lower vulnerability to data-related risks.

Abstract

Purpose: The rapid integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in public service delivery has brought both opportunities and challenges in the ASEAN region. This study investigates the risks of algorithmic bias and the effectiveness of digital government accountability in five ASEAN countries: Singapore, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, and the Philippines. Subjects and Methods: Through expert interviews, policy document analysis, and comparative case studies, the research identifies key issues such as biased algorithms in welfare programs and predictive policing, as well as the varying levels of institutional accountability across countries. Singapore’s comprehensive AI governance framework, emphasizing transparency and fairness, contrasts with the more fragmented approaches in Indonesia and the Philippines, where AI systems often lack oversight mechanisms. Results: The study finds that public trust in AI-based public services is strongly influenced by transparency and citizen engagement. It concludes that addressing algorithmic bias and strengthening accountability mechanisms are essential for the responsible deployment of AI in public services. Conclusions: This research contributes to the existing literature on AI governance, particularly within the ASEAN context, and calls for further exploration of AI governance frameworks and citizen participation in less mature AI environments.

Abstract

Purpose: This study aimed to examine how digitalization contributes to strengthening good governance through the implementation of e-government in Makassar City. It explored how digital systems foster transparency, accountability, citizen participation, and administrative efficiency within a local governance context. Subjects and Methods: Using a qualitative case study approach, data were collected from twenty purposively selected participants, including local government officials, IT officers, civil society representatives, and citizens. The study employed in-depth interviews, field observations, and document analysis. Data were analyzed thematically to identify patterns and interpret how e-government platforms such as SIPAKATAU, SIPAKALEBBI, and SIPAKARUNG influence governance practices. Results: Findings revealed that digitalization has enhanced information accessibility, improved procedural accountability, and promoted more inclusive forms of civic interaction. Transparency and efficiency increased notably through digital platforms that reduced bureaucratic layers and service delays. However, disparities in digital access, limited literacy, and uneven institutional capacity constrained full participation and sustained implementation. Training initiatives improved staff competence but adaptation remained gradual and dependent on leadership commitment. Conclusions: Digitalization has redefined governance culture in Makassar by embedding transparency and accountability into daily administrative practice. While it does not automatically ensure good governance, it creates an enabling environment where ethical leadership, inclusivity, and institutional learning determine success. Sustainable digital governance requires continued investment in human capacity, equitable access, and participatory mechanisms that transform technology into a genuine instrument of democratic accountability.
