According to the latest report by Transparency International, Nigeria is still perceived as a corrupt country without clear policies aimed at addressing the menace.
The anti-corruption campaigner which released its 2018 Corruptions Perceptions Index (CPI) report on Tuesday said Nigeria has neither improved nor progressed in the perception of corruption in its public administration since last year.
In the country comparison, Nigeria ranked 144th out of 180 countries this year as opposed to the 148 it occupied out of the 180 countries evaluated in the 2017 CPI.
Although the ranking showed that the country moved up four places, it only means that four other countries have scored worse while Nigeria stagnated.
The (CPI) aggregates data from a number of different sources which provide perceptions by the business community and country experts of the level of corruption in the public sector.
