Winning the Anti-Corruption War in Nigeria

One of the fundamental approaches needed to win the anti-corruption war in Nigeria remains the provision of information to the citizenry regarding the workings of government (i.e. the constitution, budgets, operational procedures) as well as equipping them with tools they can use.

This is a clarion call to all international agencies - including the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA), etc- funding programmes in Nigeria in the area of anti-corruption in Nigeria to more effectively integrate this perspective in their work.
