Anti-Corruption: Nigeria Moves Up 6 Places From 147 Last Year To 137 - TI by gregg2: 2:21pm On Dec 05, 2012 |
GEJ winning the war on corruption? Nigeria moves up 6 places from 147 last year to 137 out of a total of 174 countries ranked. Denmark retained its top spot as the least corrupt country in the world while Somalia stays put at bottom 174th. There are however, 193 nations on earth. Similarly, the Jonathan Presidency this morning feels Nigeria could have moved up many places in the ranking but not for a heavily sponsored campaign on the media aimed at portraying the administration as not being serious in the fight against corruption. It pointed specifically at an alleged 5trillion naira looted during the Jonathan administration planted in the PUNCH newspaper and various other campaigns aimed at influencing a poor rating for Nigeria by the anti-graft organisation. 1 Denmark 2 Finland 3 New Zealand 4 Sweden 5 Singapore 6 Switzerland 7 Australia 7 Norway 9 Canada 9 Netherlands 11 Iceland 12 Luxembourg 13 Germany 14 Hong Kong 15 Barbados 16 Belgium 17 Japan 17 United Kingdom 19 United States 20 Chile 21 Uruguay 22 Bahamas 23 France 24 Saint Lucia 25 Austria 26 Ireland 27 Qatar 28 United Arab Emirates 29 Cyprus 30 Botswana 31 Spain 32 Estonia 33 Bhutan 34 Portugal 35 Puerto Rico 36 Saint Vincent and the Grenadines 37 Slovenia 37 Taiwan 39 Cape Verde 39 Israel 41 Dominica 41 Poland 43 Malta 43 Mauritius 45 Korea (South) 46 Brunei 46 Hungary 48 Costa Rica 48 Lithuania 50 Rwanda 51 Georgia 51 Seychelles 53 Bahrain 54 Czech Republic 54 Latvia 54 Malaysia 54 Turkey 58 Cuba 58 Jordan 58 Namibia 61 Oman 62 Croatia 62 Slovakia 64 Ghana 64 Lesotho 66 Kuwait 66 Romania 66 Saudi Arabia 69 Brazil 69 FYR Macedonia 69 South Africa 72 Bosnia and Herzegovina 72 Italy 72 Sao Tome and Principe 75 Bulgaria 75 Liberia 75 Montenegro 75 Tunisia 79 Sri Lanka 80 China 80 Serbia 80 Trinidad and Tobago 83 Burkina Faso 83 El Salvador 83 Jamaica 83 Panama 83 Peru 88 Malawi 88 Morocco 88 Suriname 88 Swaziland 88 Thailand 88 Zambia 94 Benin 94 Colombia 94 Djibouti 94 Greece 94 India 94 Moldova 94 Mongolia 94 Senegal 102 Argentina 102 Gabon 102 Tanzania 105 Algeria 105 Armenia 105 Bolivia 105 Gambia 105 Kosovo 105 Mali 105 Mexico 105 Philippines 113 Albania 113 Ethiopia 113 Guatemala 113 Niger 113 Timor-Leste 118 Dominican Republic 118 Ecuador 118 Egypt 118 Indonesia 118 Madagascar 123 Belarus 123 Mauritania 123 Mozambique 123 Sierra Leone 123 Vietnam 128 Lebanon 128 Togo 130 Côte d´Ivoire 130 Nicaragua 130 Uganda 131 Comoros 132 Guyana 133 Honduras 134 Iran 135 Kazakhstan 136 Russia 137 Azerbaijan 138 Kenya 139 Nepal 140 Nigeria 139 Pakistan 144 Bangladesh 144 Cameroon 144 Central African Republic 144 Congo Republic 144 Syria 144 Ukraine 150 Eritrea 150 Guinea-Bissau 150 Papua New Guinea 150 Paraguay 154 Guinea 154 Kyrgyzstan 156 Yemen 157 Angola 157 Cambodia 157 Tajikistan 160 Democratic Republic of the Congo 160 Laos 160 Libya 163 Equatorial Guinea 163 Zimbabwe 165 Burundi 165 Chad 165 Haiti 165 Venezuela 169 Iraq 170 Turkmenistan 170 Uzbekistan 172 Myanmar 173 Sudan 174 Afghanistan 174 Korea (North) 174 Somalia Source: http://www.transparency.org/cpi2012/results |
