We're interested in Tinubu's views on anti-corruption. - The Civil Society
The president of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, has been urged to publicly express his views on the significance of anti-corruption efforts in the nation by more than 30 civil society organizations, including CISLAC, which advocates for the protection of civilians and the oversight of anti-corruption activities.
Auwal Musa Rafsanjani, a prominent member of civil society and the president of CISLAC as well as the representative of Transparency International in Nigeria, outlined the stance they adopted in response to President Tinubu's request that he publicly state his position on the country's fight against corruption.
Every government employee is required by the constitution to combat corruption, according to Barrister Mainasara Kogo, a well-known constitutional expert in the nation.
The groups demanded the introduction of a protection law for employees of the EFCC, ICPC, and other anti-corruption agencies, as well as the protection of whistleblowers in the nation. They also raised the issue of how to implement the strategy fight against national corruption and the freedom of the media law of 2011 in all states of the federation, including Abuja, among other things, in their recommendations to President Tinubu's government.
If you recall, the former President Muhammadu Buhari's administration campaigned on three major pledges, one of which was to fight corruption. However, stakeholders believe that this resolution has not been successful.
