deniyor: Thanks bro. I just hope and believe the Buhari government enlists the help of goal-oriented "think thanks" and reformers because we have so much money leaking, so many professionals wasting, and so much impunity taking advantage of the system inadequacies |

Using the mobile phone industry to solve it. This is how Since virtuslly all nigerians have access to mibile phones all that is needed is provide a database of numbers that the government would have to tackle each issue with all seriousness. Every govt agency has a monitoring/disciplinary unit but these ones have been the ones that have made the system as it should be. They wait till an issue becomes a major national headline before performing their duties. If you had to report a crime that happened right in front of you you would probably feel like calling 911 but you know that won't work here in nigeria but if you knew that there was a phone number you could easily have called and that would reduce the chances of that criminal of hurting another citizen you certainly would make that call. Public access numbers should be made available for every ministry/commision of the government and those at the receiving end would have the power to carry out/assign investigations towards solving the issue. Every house should takecare of itself. Of course since sim registration was done everyone knows prank calls would be traced and due punishment metted out on pranksters. It is not enough to just say people should report issues on the news but going a step further to mention which website address or phone number they have to make such reports to. These monitoring unit already exist but they themselves need to be put under scrutiny by the public and if their work is lacking they should be seriously dealt with. e.g If I notice a policeman/woman abuse power or break the IGP's directive https://www.nairaland.com/2303574/dont-pay-bail-againpolice-ig Again, the Acting Inspector General of Police, Solomon Arase, has stated that it is improper for police officers to request for money from suspects for bail. Arase warned that he will no longer accept such from his men because his administration will have zero tolerance for corruption.I just need to visit the govt/police website that should have the number or email of the disciplinary unit of the police and make a complaint. I mean stick it right in their faces to ensure there is no reason not to complain. If I notice an assigned road project would end up being a deathtrap because the construction is not being done well I should have a number to make an immediate complaint to. If I notice that the filling station in my area is selling above the pump price I should have a task force number to call. If these units are being pesterred with calls they would act and if they don't (because of bribes or lackadaisical attitudes) there should be an higher unit like Servicom that would handle those complaints that passed through and firstly the monitoring units would be disciplined even before the culprit. If Servicom fails there should be a unit that reports to the presidency any complaint thst passes over Servicom. Agencies like the Public Defence Commission and National Orientation Agency need to have dedicated airtime and publicity awareness programmes to let people know their rights and answer enquiries. Do you even know that using the police to arrest a debtor is illegal without a court warrant. The police is not a debt collection agency. I even wonder why some lawyers could be broke when the police is there for the picking. NOA should be funded as should be to let people know what the people should expect from their government. A grace of just 12hrs of instant correction is what is required for each monitoring unit needs to attend to an complaint and if they fail within that period the complainant is justified to go higher. With this, the level of nigeria's corruption would drop in less than a week as people love their jobs. |

How to fight corruption in these easy steps. 1.Fix the light situation (no light in FCT for two nights now...sigh). Then we would have industries, and jobs...and less reliance on oil money everywhere. Because...once states are forced to rely on industries and less on oil money...they will do all in their power to make sure that the industries work...or no money for the state treasury. Hence...corruption goes down. 2.Draconian punishments for corrupt people...and not just corrupt pols. Corrupt policemen, civil servants, teachers, etc...must spend 30 years in jail. Or we adopt the Chinese solution. 2 Likes |

socialmediaman: Lets hope so. I do strongly believe that we Nigerians can eradicate corruption ourselves. We just need to fight and end corruption within ourselves, and also hold our leaders responsible to higher standards than we currently do. Our government can only put some checks in place. As it stands, we only have to have one corrupt leader leave, just to fill the slot with just another corrupt one. If replace a good one with a corrupt leader. If we are the leaders of tomorrow, then we ourselves better be able to stand the test of time. |

peppyluv02: You're right but with time people will get used to the fact that you can longer loot public funds just like that. If you want license to run businesses that thrive based on government policies, like waste recycle companies, defense and engineering companies etc, that's ok, but not taking public funds for nothing... |

Caleycash: You will just end up with 4 corrupt and resource dependent nations...who will promptly fight for resources to chop. Division works when the various potential new nations a re self sufficient. That is why it has never worked in Africa....unless there has been a long and brutal war...and with UN troops to guarantee the peace. |

socialmediaman:You are nearer to the actual ways to fight corruption but all those facts cannot work any more in this country. Why are many people still having hope that this country is still correctable. What we have now is to frustrate each other's plans especially the sincere ones. You may not agree with me but that is the frank truth, that there is serious hate and dislike for each other. This has increased especially becaus of this GEJ government and the election that followed it. I can categorically tell you that even a Saint can NEVER satisfy some Nigerians any more, except the people of the same region. Ok, take me for example, there is nothing Buhari will do that will earn my praise. I will only go for the fullest blast using the social media, I am for the blame only. Because this is the time for pay back. Unless you are among those who pretends, there is serious devide among Nigerians along tribal, religion among others lines. I beg make I stop for here jor. 1 Like |

Very simple! i will employ people who share similar ideology in terms of fighting corruption and enforce accountability! in addition, i would have a law passed that makes any form of corruption especially in governance an offense punishable by 50 years prison sentence and forfeiture of all owned property to the state! I think the idea is to make corruption less enticing! |
