Wide and effective implementation of information and communication technologies (ICT) within the framework of the concept of electronic government (EG) is part of a complex of innovations in public administration. This article examines the study of the introduction of EG as a tool of public administration based on the experience of foreign countries. The author examines the level of development of the EG in different regions, compares the rates of development, and clarifies the reasons for the uneven use of the EG in the practice of public administration. This article focuses on the main idea of the EG project in the context of social, economic, and political changes caused by the introduction of information technology, as well as the emerging demand for increased information transparency and growing needs. The quality of public services is seen as a factor in the movement towards a modern model of democracy, which includes free access to information and the ability to take part in the management of state and non-state institutions for all citizens. In the article the author demonstrates the results of the analysis of the conditions for the implementation of the EG, requiring joint efforts of the state apparatus, public organizations, business representatives, and citizens. The reasons for resistance to the introduction of EG are also taken into account. In addition, the article introduces the stages of the processes of formatting and development of the EG, analyzes public opinion about this phenomenon within the country and in the global society, examines the relationship between the introduction of the EG and the age of citizens. The author examines the conditions that are necessary for the productive use of Internet technologies in politics, explores the mechanisms for stimulating citizens to form a civic position, and understands the benefits of using ICT for the realization of their political rights and interests. In conclusion, it was concluded that for the effective implementation of the concept of ...

Local government administration in Nigeria is as old as history and its dated back pre-colonial era. It had been part of system of government among ethnic groups in Nigeria particularly the Yoruba in the West, Hausa/Fulani in the North and the Igbo in the East. Each ethnic group operating it as it suits their cultural value. Under colonial administration, it was known as indirect rule system. It was an attempt to govern the people through their chief. At independence and thereafter, the system has since been restructured and reorganized depending on the regime and the nature of government in power. These changes have made it to pass through series of uncertainties and with peculiar characteristics. The paper, therefore, examines the historical development of local government in Nigerian state. The research methodology is carried out through the use of secondary data. However, the paper founds out that, the current state of Local Government in Nigeria is characterised by unbridled interference of the State Government and therefore recommends that, there is need to review the Constitution to make Local Government autonomous especially on the issues of fiscal power, functions and responsibilities.

Abstract: This paper starts from an argument, developed by Jean Martin in 1978, which links recent ethnic differentiation of the activities and structures of our major institutions with an underlying social redefinition of migrants. It then extends Martin's analysis in the particular context of the service activities of one of the major line departments of Australian government — the Department of Social Security. It is argued that the accommodation of ethnic considerations within the daily activities of administration has occurred largely through the concept of "access to services". Using this concept, administrators have been able acceptably to define the problem of ethnic disadvantage and to develop programs which approach its solution. The formula has been applied to Aboriginal as well as migrant disadvantage and reasons for the similarity of approach are considered briefly. A range of recent initiatives which make reference to the migrant and Aboriginal clienteles of government are considered — in particular, DSS services, namely language services, migrant and Aboriginal public contact staffing, information services and advocacy/agency programs. All of these are seen within administration, as approaches to the "access" problem. The final section comments on the general characteristics of this "access" formula and on its success in both accommodating ethnic claims of disadvantage and reinforcing administrative commitments to universalism.

Challenge to Established Convention… the simple image of the official as the instrument of Ministerial authority accountable to the Minister alone, working unseen, unheard and anonymous, is now seriously inaccurate.
