The Oyo State Signage and Advertisement Agency (OYSAA) welcomed the Bytes and Barter team to the Oyo State Secretariat for the commencement of the ICT and GIS Integration DLI under the State Action Plan on Business Enabling Reforms (SABER) project. The SABER, introduced by The World Bank and the Presidential Enabling Business Environment Council (PEBEC), signifies a major leap in modernizing the management of signage and advertisement operations in Oyo State.
The SABER project represents a critical milestone for OYSAA in achieving:
- Curbing Illegal Billboard Installations: Ensuring strict compliance with regulatory standards.
- Boosting Revenue Generation: Significantly increasing Oyo Stateâs Internally Generated Revenue (IGR).
- Building Human Capacity: Providing OYSAAâs ICT staff with comprehensive ICT training and technological tools to enhance operational efficiency and revenue generation.
Through this engagement with Bytes and Barter, OYSAA is deploying GAPLOG, a comprehensive cutting-edge Geographic Information System (GIS) designed to enhance operational efficiency, streamline billboard asset management, monitor regulatory compliance, and optimize revenue through data-driven insights. This initiative underscores OYSAA’s commitment to innovation, sustainable practices, and the strategic use of technology to elevate public service delivery in the out-of-home advertising sector.
OYSAA expresses its profound gratitude to His Excellency, Engineer Seyi Makinde, whose visionary leadership and dedication to progressive governance have been instrumental in making this initiative possible. This project underscores his commitment to transparency, accountability, and sustainable development, further strengthening Oyo Stateâs institutional and developmental framework.
We look forward to a productive collaboration that will reshape the future of signage and advertising in Oyo State.
