SecureID Group has applauded Lagos State Government on the re-launch of the Residents Card, which is set to further enhance the seamless delivery of government accomplishments.
According to the group, the re-launch of the Residents Cards is yet another landmark achievement, which further showcases Lagos State as a trailblazer among the league of states in the federation.
Founder and Group Managing Director of SecureID Group, Mrs. Kofo Akinkugbe, while commending the State Government, said: “SecureID, as one of the strategic partners of this project, is proud of your numerous achievements, particularly in the areas of technology and digitisation of the State which this project seeks to address.
“We appreciate the opportunity given to us to provide our expertise, specifically in the manufacturing of the card, which involves embedding multi-application chip modules, personalisation of payment and biometric data and fulfilment of the multi-purpose high-security Lagos Residents smart card”.
Akinkugbe also noted that as a partner, SecureID will remain resolute in her commitment to partnering with the state to further develop Lagos State with relevant technology and bespoke digital solutions that will ensure seamless delivery of government promises to the residents of the “Centre of Excellence”.
Speaking on how the Residents Cards will impact government policies and benefit residents Mrs. Akinkugbe affirmed that the cards will ensure the harmonisation of all the unique Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDA) of the state and enhance the implementation of the state’s THEMES agenda; THEMES – Traffic Management and Transportation, Health and Environment, Education and Technology, which will in turn fulfill the yearning to make Lagos a 21st Century Economy in Entertainment and Tourism and in Governance and Security.”
Established in 2011, the Lagos State Residents Registration Agency, introduced the Lagos State Residents Card to integrate the residents of Lagos state into e-government initiatives to enable the services provided by the government to be fully utilised and also provide an accurate picture of government policy and planning.
