Galaxy Backbone Moves to Digitalise More MDAs from Current 30

Galaxy Backbone (GBB) intends to expand the number of digitalised Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) in the federal government beyond the current 30, according to the Managing Director, Prof. Ibrahim Adeyanju. This announcement was made during a breakfast meeting for GBB customers, held in Abuja to celebrate Customer Service Week 2026, themed "Going the Extra Mile."

Prof. Adeyanju highlighted the company's progress in digitalising these government entities, stating that they have already successfully digitalised more than 30 MDAs, streamlining document and memo approvals and reducing reliance on paper. This endeavour not only saves the government substantial costs but also contributes to environmental conservation by decreasing the need for paper production.

GBB aims to further enhance its services, aiming to boost the adoption of paperless procedures and extend its reach to areas currently underserved. The company is actively involved in the digital transformation of the federal government, transitioning from paper-based workflows to automated systems, with the goal of improving government efficiency, transparency, and the effectiveness of civil servants.

At the event, Olusegun Olulade, Executive Director for Customer Centricity and Marketing, emphasized that customer centricity is a core value at GBB, while Ifeatu Anafulu, Head of Marketing and Business Intelligence, outlined the company's mission to deliver secure, scalable, and innovative digital solutions that empower both government and businesses.

Anafulu noted that digital transformation extends beyond Abuja, aiming to become a pivotal partner for the entire country, with their unique advantage being the GBV (Galaxy Backbone Vision) advantage.
