This study examines the application of blockchain in public sector operations, focusing on its capacity to address persistent challenges such as corruption, data manipulation, bureaucratic inefficiencies, and lack of public trust. The research adopts a qualitative approach, drawing on secondary data from academic literature, policy reports, and case studies of blockchain implementation in government systems across various countries. The findings reveal that blockchain’s decentralized, immutable, and transparent ledger system can significantly improve record-keeping, procurement processes, identity management, and service delivery. By eliminating intermediaries and enabling real-time verification of transactions, blockchain enhances accountability and reduces opportunities for fraud and mismanagement of public resources. However, the study also identifies critical challenges, including regulatory uncertainty, technological complexity, high implementation costs, and limited technical expertise within public institutions. The study concludes that while blockchain presents substantial opportunities for improving governance, its successful adoption in public administration requires strong political will, robust legal frameworks, stakeholder collaboration, and capacity building. It recommends that governments adopt a phased implementation strategy, invest in digital infrastructure, and develop clear policies to harness the full potential of blockchain technology in fostering transparent and accountable governance....Preview Download Preview +Other Public Administration project topics and materials you might be interested in»Impact of industrial conflict on the performance of workers in the government parastatal (a case study of Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)»Human resources as a catalyst for economic growth and development in Nigeria (a case study of Abuja municipal area council) »The influence of effective personnel management practice in organization performance»Local government financial autonomy and grass root development in Nigeria (a case study of Afikpo north local government area)»Effects of delayed payment of lecturers salaries and wages on students performance»Manpower training and development as a tool for effective performance in public sector in Nigeria»The impact of poor revenue generation on the development of Local Government Areas»Enhancing political stability in Nigeria through good governance ( a case study of Abia state)»Fuel subsidy removal and the Nigerian economy (a case study of Abakiliki local government area, Ebonyi state) »Niger-Delta crisis and its impact on socio-economic development in Nigeria»Accountability and corruption in local government in Nigeria (Case study of Bonny local government area of Rivers state)»Political instability a major hindrance to effective policy implementation and good governance (a case study of Nigeria 1983 -1999)»Bureaucracy and efficiency (a case study of Enugu state civil service)»Impact of collective bargaining techniques on industrial relations practice (a case study of two selected firms from NUPENG and NUBIFE)»The level of implementation of the pension act in federal polytechnic: (a study of Akanu Ibiam federal polytechnic, Unwana Afikpo Ebonyi state)
