    The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) has called on public workers and officials to be accountable for their actions and decisions.

    Represented by Mallam Hassan Salihu, an Assistant Director in the Public Enlightenment and Education Department, Dr. Adamu Aliyu emphasized that Nigeria has suffered significant losses due to a lack of accountability and transparency.

    In his lectures, titled “Effect of Corruption on Public Sector Performance – Which Way Forward” and “Transparent & Accountable Public Sector Financing – What Chief Executives and Finance Officers Should Know,” Dr. Adamu Aliyu discussed the severe consequences of corruption across various sectors in Nigeria and highlighted how public officials can effect change.

    Dr. Adamu Aliyu stressed the importance of open communication between citizens and the government to promote feedback stressing that the lack of transparency in the public sector fosters corruption, which hinders the government’s ability to provide essential services.

    He offered practical steps for chief executives and finance officers to combat corruption, such as leading by example, implementing monitoring and evaluation systems, and fostering a culture of openness.

    The ICPC Chairman also highlighted the ICPC’s achievements in combating corruption, citing numerous cases handled by the Commission and the recovery of public funds.
