The British High Commission has donated a cutting-edge forensic tool to the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), Lagos State Office.
During a brief handover ceremony, Ms. Hannah Chatterton, representing the British High Commission, formally presented the VSC 80/FS Compact Forensic Questioned Document Examination (QDE) Workstation and its accompanying components to the Lagos office of the commission.
The Resident Anti-Corruption Commissioner (RACC) for Lagos State, Chukwurah Alexander, received the forensic equipment on behalf of the commission.
ICPC spokesperson, Demola Bakare, said the device, designed for high-precision document authentication, is expected to further support the commission’s investigative processes and casework.
Bakare further said that while speaking at the event, representatives of both institutions highlighted the value of partnerships that enhance institutional tools and promote accountability through technology-driven solutions.
This donation forms part of a broader collaboration between Nigeria and the United Kingdom aimed at strengthening the rule of law, building technical expertise, and equipping public institutions with the necessary resources to carry out their mandates effectively.
The ICPC Lagos office appreciated the British High Commission’s generous donation and reaffirmed its commitment to utilising the equipment to its full potential in line with the Commission’s mandate.
