Nigeria has fallen four places on the latest Corruption Perception Index (CPI) ranking released by Transparency International (TI) on Tuesday.
Although the country maintained its previous year’s score of 24 out of 100 points, it fell from 150th to 154th position out of180 countries assessed in the 2022 ranking.
The latest ranking may be an indicator that the country’s fight against corruption has stalled and produced little results.
The CPI is TI’s tool for measuring the levels of corruption in the systems of various countries around the world. The maximum points a country can score is 100 points, and the least is zero. Zero signifies the worst-performing country and 100, is the best-ranked.
