Abstract

The advent of internets and other electronics related devices have become a veritable means through which an individual or organization can reach out to one person, or a group of persons, or the entire globe, just by a tap of a button. Many government organizations have since keyed into this phenomena. This give rise to the use of such prefix as E which implies Electronic, to carry out governmental functions in organizations, this has given prominent place for its adoption and its use. This paper work is tailored towards examining issues in e- governance implementation in Nigeria public sectors. The objective is to examine rational for its adoption, historical perspectives, the problems associated with its implementation in Nigeria public organizations. The summary of our findings is that, intermittent power supply and lack of committed and dedicated management are the major issues confronting E- governance implementation in virtually all Nigeria public sectors. Hence, it is recommended that an improved stable power supply with dedicated and committed management can help to achieve the goals of electronic governance implementation in Public sectors.
