“…According to Banouar et al [2], resolving approaches to achieve semantic interoperability are classified into three main domains :  Mapping based approach: resolution is achieved by establishing a correspondence between entities, classes, relationships, attributes as well as domain components of the global schema and the collaborating local schemas.  Query-oriented approach: interpretable languages such as comprehensive expended SQL or logical declarative languages which are used for the identification, locating, transformation and integration of relevance of data according to semantics associated using high order expressions to handle and control the data and metadata [3].  Intermediary-based approach (mediators): this approach deals with translation services provision to the collaborating systems from different semantic domains using ontologies and shared vocabulary or protocol to communicate.…”

While many African countries have called for ICTbased intra-African collaboration, services, and trade, it is not known whether this call is technically feasible. For such intra-African based collaboration, semantic interoperability would be required between the national e-government systems. This paper reviewed the e-government interoperability frameworks (e-GIFs) of English and Arabic speaking African countries to identify the evidence and conflict approaches to semantic interoperability. The results suggest that only seven African countries have e-GIFs, which have mainly been adopted from the UK's e-Government Metadata Standards (eGMS) and on Dublin's Core metadata (DC). However, many of the e-GIFs, with the exception of Nigeria, have not been contextualized to the local needs. The paper, therefore, concluded that more effort needs to be placed in developing e-GIFs in Africa, with particular emphasis on semantic interoperability, if the dream of intra-African collaboration is to be achieved.
