has warned government agencies from hosting public data on cybers and clouds outside Nigeria.
“It should be noted that the government considers the data of government as national resources which must be stored in Nigeria and analysed within existing regulations for improvement of governance and development of the country.” The management of the National Information Technology Development Agency would like to bring to the attention of Federal Public Institutions, IT Service Providers to the Federal Government and all data management firms doing business in Nigeria on the need for strict compliance with Section 14 of the Regulatory Guidelines for Nigerian Content Development in ICT. This section provides a framework for repatriation and hosting of all Nigerian government data within the country.
We, however, wish to note that a small fraction of government data is still hosted outside Nigeria without the approval of the Agency. We understand that for some Federal Public Institutions, consideration of cost and other technicalities may have affected the full repatriation of government data.
