Lagos

The World Bank has stated that Nigeria is a startling example of reduced corruption in Africa .

The World Bank said in a statement made available to the the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) yesterday in Abuja that the biggest gain by far was registered by Nigeria , whose score had risen by 93 per cent, albeit from a very low base. Nigeria moved up 11 places in the world league table to 121 from 132.

The bank said that Nigeria 's performance was against the judgment of all the "reform-minded" agencies, including the OECD, which argued that "low corruption is good for growth and investment, but the regional figures suggest otherwise".

"All of which is bad news for reform-minded agencies like the OECD, IMF and World Bank," it said. It particularly commended China's significant aid and investment in African countries including Nigeria.

Na tru o! Politicians don't steal money like before. They don't carry Ghana must go again, but, they have re-invented corruption.

Now, they increase their salary every 6 months, got fat security votes, inflated contract or award contracts to their cronies. Things are changing,
