The Resource Centre for Human Rights and Civic Education (CHRICED) has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to make the fight against corruption a top priority, emphasising that a strong stance against graft could define his administration’s legacy.

At a State of the Nation press briefing yesterday in Abuja, CHRICED’s Executive Director, Comrade Ibrahim Zikirullahi, called on the President to ensure that anti-corruption measures are effectively implemented.

He highlighted that individuals with nothing to hide should not fear the actions of anti-corruption agencies.

“A robust and determined approach to tackling corruption is a far more effective strategy for enhancing revenue generation than imposing taxes, fees, and burdensome costs of PMS on the general populace,” Zikirullahi stated.

He further argued that addressing the root causes of corruption could unlock significant financial resources, fostering a more sustainable economic environment.

Zikirullahi referenced the Supreme Court’s recent judgment against impunity as a rallying call for anti-corruption agencies to intensify their efforts to hold public officials accountable.

“Strengthening institutions, promoting accountability, and encouraging transparency are vital measures for restoring the integrity of our nation and facilitating sustainable development,” he added.

CHRICED also called on the National Assembly to strengthen the legal frameworks governing anti-corruption agencies. This would include the constitutional integration of these agencies to ensure their operational independence and the provision of adequate resources for their functions.

Zikirullahi emphasised the importance of professionalism, transparency, and accountability in the operations of anti-corruption agencies.

Highlighting the critical role of civil society, CHRICED appealed to stakeholders in government, the private sector, and the broader community to support efforts to create a corruption-free Nigeria.

The organisation also expressed gratitude to the John D. and Catherine T. MacArthur Foundation for its substantial contributions to the anti-corruption fight in Nigeria. Over the past five years, the Foundation has been the most significant donor-supporting initiative to strengthen anti-corruption agencies and empower civil society organisations.

“The MacArthur Foundation’s generous funding has bolstered institutions and fostered a culture of accountability and transparency, which are essential for national progress,” he said
