although this matter was emphasized in the ministerial curriculum, it was not implemented.” Until now". He stated,
"There is no ministry that has implemented electronic governance so far, despite the importance of this step in fighting corruption and eliminating it once and for all.
This confirms the desire for corruption to continue, and
that is why all ministries have not implemented this system, which is the main step in eliminating corruption." Which has been eating away at the body of the Iraqi state for years without any real confrontation with it.
Iraq is considered one of the countries with the highest rates of administrative and financial corruption, and
it is noticeably present in several administrative facilities.

Because of the massive corruption in Iraq, there is a massive lack of services, deterioration of infrastructure, and deterioration of industrial and agricultural development, among examples of rampant corruption.
A total of $228 billion was wasted on construction and infrastructure projects, on paper only, a value that exceeds three times the national budget and the country's gross domestic product,
despite the enormous funds generated from the sale of oil, as Iraq ranks second among oil-producing countries.
But it remains completely dependent on imports, even for electricity and petroleum products.
