Lai Mohammed Commends Whistle-Blowing policy "Working like Magic"

Nigeria’s ailment with corruption are well-documented. In a bid to distort the trend, Nigeria’s ministry of finance recently decided to try a new approach: allowing citizens who report corruption-related offenses earn a share from the recovered loot.


The hope was that the whistle-blowing policy, put in place two months ago, would provide agencies like the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) with actionable tips to track and recover stolen government funds.

So far, it appears to be working. Last week, EFCC retrieved $9.8 million from Andrew Yakubu, former group managing director of Nigeria’s state oil company, thanks to whistle-blowing.
Including Yakubu’s loot, Lai Mohammed, Nigeria’s minister of information, says the whistle-blowing policy has led to the recovery of over $180 million from various corrupt individuals.

well its working, but we hope they utilize the money well...
