Abstract: Local governments are faced with a huge diversity of citizens, issues and challenges. These range from the provision of social housing and welfare benefits, through to community safety, education services, waste management and the operation of recreational facilities. The purpose of Local Government is to tackle the challenge of balancing limited resources with the needs of their communities. In addition, local governments are under increasing pressure to deliver administrative transparency and accountability to its citizenry. Information and Communications Technology (ICT) has a key role to play in helping to meet the wide ranging responsibilities and diverse expectations of local government. The desire to improve citizen relationships is closely tied to the objective of improving the services provided by local government. In these areas, document management, back and front office integration and infrastructure upgrades were identified as key points of focus. In all areas of consideration, ICT has been identified as a key enabler to help support improved citizen-centric service provision. However, it is observed that Information and communication technology is not currently playing a significant role in the local governments in Nigeria. This study presents documentation on how ICT can be implemented in a local government to enhance good and quality service delivery. The role and challenges of local government were highlighted, Virtual bureaucracy to e-government is presented as well as the technical framework (Technical Model) for the ICT implementation in local government were presented. The Technical model has the basic components of ICT infrastructures and Information systems. The preconditions for ICT in local government were well presented.
