The Journal of Gender, Information and Development in Africa (JGIDA) strives towards excellence and relevance in African scholarship. JGIDA promotes freedom of inquiry and research with a view to stimulating and entrenching a culture and tradition of independent African research issues. To this end, JGIDA foregrounds the following: African responses to regional challenges; African world views; knowledge bases that are intrinsically and inherently African; indigenous ways of thinking; knowledge systems based on African realities; implication of information and communications technologies (ICTs) in information societies, research reflecting the social, economic and developmental constructs of African scholarship. JGIDA strives to engender high quality international scholarly excellence focusing on the research needs of the knowledge economy, technology innovation and transfer predicated on diverse cross disciplinary subjects in the social sciences, humanities and the arts. The focus of this series is monitoring, evaluation and implementation related to education, international development, practice intervention strategies, advocacy and campaigns from a gender justice and women’s rights perspective. This issue supports practitioners and researchers to understand how best to apply evidence based models and practice approaches to ensure education, training, policy and program delivery. The following articles are highlighted:
1. Effect Of Innovative Technology On Internal Audit Using Selected Municipalities In Nigeria As Case Study

As a social worker, I understand the need to address the issues facing Africans who strive to meet the needs of their families and communities at the micro, mezzo and macro level. Fortunately, the establishment of social work programs worldwide has grown astronomically in the last 25 years. As scholars and practitioners, we have heeded the call regarding the need for implementation of programs and policies focusing on disenfranchised groups globally. It is imperative that multidisciplinary research and best practice approaches be implemented that address those relevant issues related to gender, information and development in Africa. It is a privilege to work with colleagues who are dedicated to making a difference in the individual lives, communities and the African society as a whole. I appreciate the dedication of the Editorial Review Board that serves in the forefront to ensure the integrity of JGIDA.
