ICPC reveals how Nigerians can fight corruption
The State Commissioner, ICPC, Akwa Ibom State, Mr Shola Shodipo, said this in Uyo, on Tuesday during a 2-Day training workshop on using Budget Data and Freedom of Information Act to fight corruption for civil society organisations and community representatives.
He added that though budget tracking “is a constitutional role of lawmakers in the National and States Assembly, the citizens should not leave it for them alone.” “They may be lackadaisical, in which case, billions would be budgeted yearly and there won’t be value for the money which would amount to losses for them.
The ICPC commissioner in the state said that grand corruption had impacted negatively on the social welfare projects which have direct bearing to the lives of ordinary people.
