The Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Anti-Corruption, Kayode Akiolu, has said that the anti-corruption campaign in the country requires strong collaboration to succeed.
Akiolu made the statement at the ongoing three-day national anti-corruption conference holding in Uyo.
He said that it was unrealistic to tackle corruption without the involvement of critical stakeholders, saying, “No single individual or agency can fight corruption successfully.
“So there is need for synergy between government agencies, civil society, media, private sector and all Nigerians.”
Akiolu said that through collaboration and determination, Nigeria could develop effective frameworks that would empower the public to hold their leaders accountable
“The National Assembly has shown enormous commitment in the campaign against corruption through laws, motions, oversights, among others.
