All commercial banks in the country use foreign software.

The major e-payment switches ride on foreign sourced software.

The accounting software for the entire country called Government Integrated Financial Management Information System (GIFMIS) is from Estonia, a country of just about two million people.

Our Integrated Tax Administration System (ITAX) at FIRS is sourced from Canada.

Our National Payroll (IPPIS) sits on something sourced from USA.

When shall we be proud of ourselves and do something about our future IT ourselves?
