Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related Offences Commission (ICPC), Prof. Bolaji Owasanoye, has linked the resurgence of military coups in West Africa to weak institutions and corruption.

According to him, the unconstitutional change of government in three of the15-member states of the Economic Community of West African States within a period of 18 months exposes the fragility of the sub-region.

There were quick successive military takeovers in Mali and Guinea in August and September last year, followed by another putsch in Burkina Faso, just last month. IN a related development, the Chattered Institute of Forensic and Investigative Professionals of Nigeria has disclosed that 75 per cent of the yearly national budget is lost to corrupt practices at all levels of governance in the country.
