President Bola Tinubu will before long present the whistleblowing policy to the National Assembly (NASS) for legislative action.

This is as indicated by the Minister of Finance and Coordinating Minister of the Economy, Wale Edun.

He revealed this on Wednesday in Abuja during a meeting tagged “Implementing the whistle-blowing policy in Nigeria issues, challenges and the way forward.”

Edun made sense of the that the Federal Government expects the backing of Nigerians in making the policy work towards advancing transparency and accountability.

“The policy does provide mechanisms for protection and it is our duty to uphold these provisions and support those who come forward in the interest of the public,” the minister said.

“Those who are public-spirited, brave, courageous, committed, and determined to do the right thing must, should, and will be protected.

“It’s a fact that a successful whistleblowing policy involves receiving verifiable reports, conducting thorough investigations to authenticate them, and taking appropriate action to enforce compliance with the law.”

The minister communicated that the whistleblowing policy is part of the government’s strategy to guarantee that the country’s public institutions operate with integrity.

He likewise said that the policy would disclose public institutions responsible to Nigerians who have been empowered by the policy to remain as a watchdog over all that takes place, especially in the public, with the finances and resources that belong to the majority.
