I read with enthusiasm your statement about Anambra becoming "Fully Digital" by implementing a Unified Cloud Services which will ensure that State data are stored within the country instead of outside. I'm inclined to ask how this can be achieved without a stable energy infrastructures. Data Centers are not run on batteries and generators. Has adequate energy plans been put in place to guarantee 99.99% data availability and real-time use even in rural areas, otherwise it's just a mirage. Let's think of energy solution first.

smart grids using biofuels and biogas derived from waste could bridge the energy gap. Energy consumerism could become Producers. This is called prosumerism

Great initiative and a good step in the right direction. I strongly believe that ICT is a tool that will help Anambra and Nigeria tackle this menace called corruption, ICT will also provide seamless work environment and institutions.

As a young Anambra tech personnel and enthusiast. I’m overwhelmed with joy that this initiative is in place in my indigenous state. All I can say is please keep the fire burning until our state becomes a landmark for technology in Nigeria and Africa.

I’m willing and enthusiastic to volunteer to work with the innovative team that’s bringing forth this change to our dear state. I’ll volunteer free of charge because my motivation is the end goal which is making Anambra A tech Megacity in the heart of Nigeria.

Please see our Bonny Island Smart City Project (from G-GeoGas). It is a detailed proposal on turning Bonny Island into Nigeria's smart city of the future. It could be adapted for Anambra State.

Reading this sounded good. Kudos to the Anambra ICT Agency team led by CFA.

I also hope there's proper documentation so the team that'd come after the current team would continue implementing this digitization plan!
