Media, ICPC strengthen partnership against maritime corruption

The Media Anti-Corruption Initiative (MACI) has forged a strategic partnership with the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) to strengthen media-driven efforts to promote transparency, accountability, and ethical conduct in Nigeria. The partnership was sealed last week when a seven-member MACI delegation, led by its National President, Mr Funso Olojo, paid a courtesy visit to the Resident Anti-Corruption Commissioner, Lagos Zonal Office of ICPC, Mr Chukwurah Alexander.

Olojo described the media as a critical partner in the ICPC's "public enlightenment and corruption-prevention mandate under Section 6 of the ICPC Act, 2000," while Alexander expressed optimism that stronger collaboration between the media and the ICPC would deepen public awareness and prevention efforts.
