Nigeria has dropped two places on the 2019 corruption perception index published by Transparency International.

According to the report which was released on Thursday, Nigeria is now ranked 146 out of the 180 countries considered.

The country scored 26 out of 100 points, a drop from the 27 points that it has maintained since 2017.

In the 2018 index, Nigeria rose by four places on the index from 148 to 144.

The index, which ranks 180 countries and territories by their perceived levels of public sector corruption in the opinion of experts and business people, uses a scale of 0 to 100, where 0 is highly corrupt and 100 is very clean.

“The Corruption Perceptions Index 2019 reveals a staggering number of countries are showing little to no improvement in tackling corruption. Our analysis also suggests that reducing big money in politics and promoting inclusive political decision-making are essential to curb corruption,” the report read.

“From fraud that occurs at the highest levels of government to petty bribery that blocks access to basic public services like healthcare and education, citizens are fed up with corrupt leaders and institutions.

“This frustration fuels a growing lack of trust in government and further erodes public confidence in political leaders, elected officials and democracy.”

“Governments must urgently address the corrupting role of big money in political party financing and the undue influence it exerts on our political systems,” Delia Ferreira Rubio, Transparency International’s chair, said.

The sub-Saharan Africa region was classified as the lowest-performing region while western Europe was the highest-scoring region.

GMB and his gang of forty thieves cant deceive the world, though they are deceving zombies.

Good news oo

We don't need any transparency international to tell us what a baby in his mother's womb in Nigeria already knows.

The international community is not blind. As long as they keep seeing the likes of Babachir Lawal, Obanikoro, Timiprieye silva, Atiku, saraki and many others still going free, no matter the level of fight against corruption the federal govt will try to present to the international community, they won't believe the Nigerian govt.

President Buhari currently faces serious allegations, which include staging show trials of opponents of a regime that is accused of corruption and graft, while simultaneously shielding his own party members and inner circle.

What are the criteria for this assessment by TI? Well, a fact remains that despite the hyping & self glorification by the hypocritical govt cum its loopsided anti-corruption lapdogs(ICPC, EFCC), Nigeria have made no improvement in the anti graft war.

Buhari is corruption personified so no suprises

Yes the corruption is thriving Because pdp still in government. And of course some people still harboring thieves ,Because their close friends and kinsmen involved in looting public funds.

I tell people, we have the worst hypocrite as president of Nigeria.

The difference is clear.Fighting corruption but just on paper.Recovering looted monies with the associated taxation & astronomical phantom revenue improvement yet the APC govt is still borrowing money to fund budget & service debts.Voodoo economics.
