President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is reaffirming his administration’s commitment to achieving a fully digital and paperless civil service by December 2025 under the Federal Civil Service Strategy and Implementation Plan 2025 (FCSSIP25).
Speaking through Didi Esther Walson-Jack, Head of the Civil Service of the Federation, at the opening of the 57th International Conference and Exhibition of the Chartered Institute of Personnel Management of Nigeria (CIPM) in Abuja, President Tinubu says the move aligns with his vision for a digitally-driven, citizen-centred, and world-class public workforce.
“Nigeria’s greatest asset is not its oil or minerals, but its people,” President Tinubu says, noting that the ongoing transformation of the public service remains central to his Renewed Hope Agenda. He highlights initiatives such as the 3 Million Technical Talent Programme (3MTT) and the National Talent Export Programme (NATEP) as key steps towards positioning Nigeria as a global hub for skilled digital professionals.
According to the President, the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solution will play a pivotal role in the transition toward a fully paperless civil service by the end of 2025.

“The adoption of the Enterprise Content Management (ECM) solution is a major milestone in enhancing efficiency, transparency, and accountability in public service operations,” Tinubu says.
Commending the CIPM for nearly six decades of professional excellence, the President describes the Institute as a critical platform for thought leaders, policymakers, and human resource professionals to examine and respond to the evolving dynamics of work in the digital era.
During his remarks, Ahmed Ladan Gobir, President and Chairman of the Governing Council of CIPM, calls for greater digital adoption across organisations.
“The future of work will not necessarily reward the strongest or the smartest, but those courageous enough to remain human in a digital world,” Gobir says.
He urges human resource professionals to transcend traditional management practices by fostering work environments where humans and technology collaborate rather than compete.
“We must build workplaces where innovation meets integrity, and productivity aligns with purpose,” Gobir adds.
