Port Interventions Successful Due to Collaborative Support of all Stakeholders – Owasanoye

The success stories recorded in the Nigerian ports sector have been attributed to the reform-mindedness and zero-tolerance policy on corruption by the government, and the collaborative support of all ports agencies and stakeholders.


This was disclosed by the Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), Prof. Bolaji Owasanoye, SAN, OFR through a Deputy Director in ICPC, Mr. Jimoh Sulahiman at the 2nd Edition of the 2022 Compliance Roundtable on Institutionalising Operational Efficiency through Stronger Compliance Function within the Agencies, convened by the Federal Ministry of Transportation in conjunction with the Convention on Business Integrity (CBI).


Prof. Owasanoye explained that ICPC’s interventions at the ports were aimed at sanitising the ports of corruption and corrupt elements by infusing ethics and integrity into ports processes, mitigating against lack of integrity in international trade, thereby promoting Nigeria’s Ease of Doing Business Policy.
