The Government of Kenya has taken a further step in digitising public services with the rollout of ICT equipment to the Office of the Attorney General AG and Department of Justice DOJ under the Kenya Digital Economy Acceleration Project KDEAP. The handover, delivered through the ICT Authority, is aimed at moving the AG's office from largely paper-based processes to a more efficient, digitally enabled and citizen-focused legal service environment.
The initiative is expected to enhance automation and digitisation across legal and administrative functions, improving efficiency, accountability and public access to services. It forms part of broader national efforts to modernise public institutions and embed digital systems into service delivery.
The Cabinet Secretary for Information, Communications and the Digital Economy, William Kabogo, reaffirmed the government's commitment to accelerating digital transformation in the public sector, noting progress made in modernising operations within the Attorney General's office and the Judiciary. The Principal Secretary for ICT and Digital Economy, John Tanui, highlighted advancements under Kenya's digital transformation agenda, which focuses on connectivity, digitisation, training and institutional capacity building. He pointed to the deployment of devices and ICT tools through the ICT Authority, supported by development partners including the World Bank and the Universal Service Fund.
