All is set for the official launch of SolutionLens by the Anambra State government.
Public Relations Officer, Anambra State ICT Agency, Angela Nwanodu disclosed this in a statement.
She said the launch is being powered through Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning, Ministry of Information, and ICT Agency.
Nwanodu added that the launch, a new tech-driven platform designed to promote transparency, accountability, and citizen engagement in governance.
According to her, the launch slated for Thursday, May 15, 2025 would be a hybrid event—with both physical and virtual participation.
She said the event would bring together top government officials, development partners, civil society groups, community leaders, tech innovators, and the media.
“SolutionLens is a digital platform that will allow Ndi Anambra to track the progress of government projects across sectors.
“The sectors include education, health, infrastructure, and water—while offering channels for public feedback and participation.
Key Features of SolutionLens are: Central hub for government projects, interactive mapping and user-friendly interface, and direct chat with government MDAs,
“This initiative is part of Prof. Charles Chukwuma Soludo’s broader vision for a smart, inclusive, and transparent Anambra.
“The initiative is in line with his administration’s mantra: “Everything Technology, Technology Everywhere.”
This is a great initiative by the Anambra State government. SolutionLens seems like a promising platform to enhance transparency and citizen engagement. I’m curious about how user-friendly the interface will be for people who are not tech-savvy. Will there be training or support provided to ensure everyone can use it effectively? It’s impressive that the event will include both physical and virtual participation, making it accessible to a wider audience. I hope this platform will truly foster accountability and improve governance. What measures are in place to ensure the feedback from citizens is acted upon? Also, how will the government address potential challenges like internet access in rural areas? This could be a game-changer for Anambra if implemented well.
