Description E-governance and e-participation are important stages in the advancement of government processes. They both offer great opportunities as well as new challenges especially in Nigeria with emphasis on selected local governments in Ogun State. E-governance is a new phenomenon in African countries and Nigeria is fast aligning into it, with the aim of addressing many challenges attached to development in Nigeria. Ado-Odo/Ota, Sagamu, Yewa South, Abeokuta South and Ijebu Ode local governments function primarily along the traditional colonial administrative system. . This study considers sectoral aggregation of local government systems such as personnel, community development or relations, Infrastructural needs, spatial environment, etc. Structured and unstructured interviews will be conducted and questionnaires were administered in order to gather data in areas of education, health, recreation, electricity, water supply, empowerment, waste management, traffic control and security. The formulated hypotheses were subjected to statistical validation using multivariate regression analysis. This methodological approach enabled us ascertain whether there exists any significance relationship between eGovernance and effective mobilization of manpower and resources considering the selected local government areas for this study. Judgmental sampling procedures were adequately utilized in the selected local governments which are Ado_Odo/Ota, Sagamu, Yewa South, Ijebu Ode and Abeokuta South. These were based on the distinguishing characteristics of selected sample observations required for this study.
