THE ‘WAR' AGAINST CORRUPTION IN NIGERIA: THE LESSON OF SINGAPORE AND THE NEGLECTED STRATEGIES

Musa SULEIMAN

Abstract


The war against corruption in Nigeria was institutionalised during colonialism1 . Unlike Singapore, Nigeria did not take the war serious soon after independence. In the 2000s, anti-corruption laws2 were made and specialised agencies3 to enforce those laws established. This work finds that Nigeria lacks a strong political will to fight corruption like Singapore. The socialisation of children/students at all levels of learning in Nigeria against corruption is recommended. Key words: Corruption, EFCC, ICPC, CPIB, Bribery, Extortion.
