Convening together
A National Identification Number that will not verify. A tax portal that times out at the filing deadline. A government payment that leaves a beneficiary's account and never arrives. A health record that does not load when a patient needs it most.
None of these are software problems in the abstract. They are quality engineering problems — the discipline of deciding what could go wrong, before a citizen finds out the hard way.
Government Day exists because the systems carrying the most consequence in this country are often the ones tested the least formally. This is the session where that changes.
Newly released, and directly relevant to how your agency's digital projects will be assessed. Attend before your MDA has to comply with it, not after.
Nominated officers join by video link from their own desks nationwide. There is no budget line this requires and no office this excludes.
This session convenes NITDA, the regulators, and federal MDAs together, at the same table, on the same day. The agencies not in the room will be reading about it afterward.
This is a working session — testing standards, real case discussion, and a framework briefing — not a keynote-and-photograph formality.
Times shown in WAT. A detailed agenda pack is sent to every registrant ahead of the day.
Onsite registration at NITDA HQ; virtual link opens for remote officers.
NITDA leadership opens, then briefs the room directly: what the Framework requires, how it will be assessed, and what your agency should do first.
Practical, case-based discussion on testing public-sector systems, with regulatory perspective from NCC, FCCPC, NDPC and ngCERT woven directly into the conversation.
Open floor for agency-specific questions, certificates of participation, and how this connects to NSTW 2026's national programme.
For officers based in or able to travel to Abuja. Seating is limited and allocated on a first-registered basis.
For officers joining from any state. A join link is sent to your official email after registration.
Africa's first software testing book, personally signed by the author. Every onsite attendee receives a copy on the day; virtual attendees can claim theirs at any NSTW 2026 touchpoint or request delivery.
A take-home reference summarising the NITDA Software Testing Framework, built for briefing your own agency leadership afterward.
Printed on the day for onsite attendees; issued digitally to virtual attendees within the week.
The room, the floor for questions, and the relationships — not a broadcast you watch, a table you sit at.
Government Day convenes the institutions setting the national standard for public-sector software quality. Your agency's participation is on the record from the start.
