The program, organised through the Office of the Head of Service and held from March 23 to 25, brought together directors and deputy directors of the state civil service under the theme, “Fiscal Stewardship, Strategic Oversight, and Institutional Integrity in the Era of Disruptive Innovation.”
The workshop highlights Enugu’s efforts to enhance public sector efficiency amid mounting fiscal pressures and rapid technological changes reshaping governance systems.
Opening the event, Ifeanyi Ossai, Enugu’s deputy governor, delivered remarks on behalf of Governor Peter Mbah, stressing the need for continuous learning within the civil service.
The governor said the ability to internalise and implement forward-looking policies is critical to delivering efficient, people-centred governance, while also acknowledging the role of strategic partnerships such as the collaboration with Citihoms Finance.
Head of Service Godwin Anigbo described the workshop as a platform to advance the state’s reform agenda and strengthen fiscal discipline. He said initiatives of this nature are essential to deepening accountability and institutional excellence across ministries and agencies.
For Citihoms Finance, the partnership aligns with its broader strategy of combining financial services with advisory and knowledge-based engagement. Nathaneal Solomon, the company’s managing director, said the firm remains committed to supporting both public and private sector growth through tailored financial solutions and impact-driven collaborations.
Participants received expert-led sessions on budgeting during a period of disruptive innovation, efficient allocation of public resources, governance reform, performance oversight, and ethical leadership.
The discussions also explored value optimisation and financial management literacy, offering practical insights into how structured financing solutions can help meet institutional and personal funding needs.
The engagement reflects a growing trend of subnational governments seeking private-sector expertise to improve administrative capacity, as states face tighter revenue conditions and heightened expectations for service delivery.
Citihoms Finance said it plans to expand similar partnerships across other states, positioning itself as a financial partner in public-sector reform and broader economic development initiatives.
