The Nigeria Police Force (NPF) has been declared as the most corrupt government agency in Nigeria, according to a 2019 corruption survey released by the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS) on Friday, December 6.

The report titled corruption in Nigeria: patterns and trend was conducted by a United Nations agency, the UNODC and the Nigerian Bureau of Statistics (NBS).

In the latest 2019 report, police officers top the charts as the most corrupt government agency with 33%.

Next to police officers are land registry officers with 26%, and revenue officers with 25%.

The survey stated that the least corrupt officials are health workers with 5%

From the report:

General conclusions
[b]While the prevalence of administrative, mainly low-value, bribery has decreased, the survey results suggest
that the Government’s anti-corruption agenda, which tends to be focused on large-scale corruption, has
so far only marginally affected this type of bribe seeking behaviour. Consequently, a greater effort should
be made and more attention paid to the eradication of bribe-seeking of this nature. [/b]The implementation
of these actions, like those proposed by the National Anti-Corruption Strategy, which are specifically aimed
at mainstreaming anti-corruption principles into governance and service delivery at all levels, can support
this change.

The 2019 survey revealed some encouraging trends concerning the prevalence of bribery in the institutions
that appear to be most affected by it. The most significant gains in terms of reducing the prevalence of
bribe-seeking behaviour have been made by Customs and Immigration, the Nigerian Police Force, the
Judiciary, Prosecutors, the Vehicle Inspection Authority and the Armed Forces. This suggests that those
institutions have taken effective action over the last few years and have successfully introduced measures
to control corruption. Such measures should receive further support with a view to building on the
achievements to date.

The 2019 survey also shows that many Nigerians mostly interact with just a few types of public official over
the course of the year: health sector professionals, police, teachers and federal road safety officers.
Focusing efforts on reducing the prevalence and frequency of bribe-seeking behaviour on those types of
official could therefore have a profound and lasting effect on citizens’ overall experience of bribery.

The 2019 survey reconfirmed that more than 90 per cent of bribes in Nigeria are paid in cash and often in
the context of direct contact between a citizen and a public official. This suggests that the expansion of
digitalization in public service delivery would help to limit opportunities for transactional corruption. By
developing web-based and smartphone applications, numerous administrative procedures would not only
increase in efficiency but also anonymize interactions between citizens and public officials, and thus reduce
the likelihood of corruption.
