The federal government has launched GovGuideNigeria, an artificial intelligence-powered platform designed to improve public access to official government information and services.
The Minister of Communications, Innovation and Digital Economy, Bosun Tijani, announced the launch on Thursday, saying the platform will be accessible through WhatsApp and the web.
According to the minister, GovGuideNigeria will provide information from more than 35 federal ministries and over 60 government agencies. He said the service will operate in English, Hausa, Igbo, and Yoruba to improve accessibility and public service delivery across the country.
