ADDRESS BY HIS EXCELLENCY, PROF. YEMI OSINBAJO SAN, VICE PRESIDENT, FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA AT THE 20TH ANNIVERSARY AFRICA REGIONAL WEBINAR OF THE ICPC THEMED COMBATING CORRUPTION AND ILLICIT FINANCIAL FLOWS: NEW MEASURES AND STRATEGIES

WHY AFRICA, INTERNATIONAL COMMUNITY MUST JOIN FORCES TO BREAK THE WALLS OF SECRET CORPORATE OWNERSHIP IN CORRUPTION FIGHT- OSINBAJO

Over the years, massive public resources and assets have been directly stolen, diverted, deliberately misapplied to gratify corrupt tendencies, stashed in foreign jurisdictions or mired in and susceptible to pilferage by the inequitable and unjust international economic system that continues to undermine the social and economic development aspirations of poor countries especially from Africa.

Without effectively combating corruption and IFFs and promoting international cooperation for asset recovery and asset return, Africa cannot achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. Goal 16 of the SDGs is devoted to corruption. Specifically, Target 16.4 commits that: “By 2030, significantly reduce illicit financial flows and arms flows, strengthen the recovery and return of stolen assets and combat all forms of organized crime.”

Ok

Thank God we have good governance that work most on corruption and make sure it reduces to minimal

soon corruption will be a thing of past in Nigeria

Ok

Corruption all over the world is like a virus that kill or slow down the development of every nation.
Nigeria is not left alone in this, we must fight to kill corruption in our country. This has been our problem and the cause of slow pace in our development in all realm of affairs.

Let's start by checking the credence of those political office holders like efcc. I know of a senior police officer who all his collegues in same rank had became AIG,DIG... through lobbying. But he never will. This is Nigeria. His name is Adeoye.
