To enthrone accountability and transparency in its affairs, the Office of the Surveyor General of the Federation (OSGoF) has inaugurated the

Anti-Corruption and Transparency Unit in partnership with the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission .

The oath of office for the eight- staff members nominated to serve in the unit was administered by a lawyer at the ICPC, Bimpe Abodunrin. In his goodwill message, the chairman of ICPC, Prof Bolaji Owasanoye said ACTU was approved by the federal government to serve as an in-house mechanism for the prevention of corruption in MDAs in line with global best practices to build strong institutions as well as to institutionalize good governance.

The unit, he added, is to complement the ICPC in entrenching the principles of accountability and transparency in MDAs. Owasanoye said the unit was expected to conduct systems study and review of processes and procedures in OSGoF in order to make appropriate recommendations to block corruption loopholes including continuous sensitization of staff on and against the ills of corruption.“ACTU is not set up as a parallel authority to the management, rather they are to work closely with management to build a reputable organisation,” he said.
