AFRICAN INITIATIVE FOR TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBLE LEADERSHIP

PERSONALITY CLASH AMONG TOP GOVERNMENT OFFICIALS IN THE CURRENT ADMINISTRATION HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AS PARTS OF THE FORCES HINDERING CORRUPTION FLIGHT IN NIGERIA. THIS REVELATION IS COMING FROM THE CHIEF EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF AFRICAN INITIATIVE FOR TRANSPARENCY, ACCOUNTABILITY AND RESPONSIBLE LEADERSHIP, LOUIS OGBEIFUN WHILE REACTING TO CURRENT ALLEGATIONS AND COUNTER ACCUSATIONS IN THE NDDC.

THE TRANSPARENCY GROUP IS ALSO WORRIED ABOUT GOVERNMENT’S SACKING OF WORKERS IN THE KADUNA REFINING PETROL-CHEMICAL COMPANY IN THE WAVE OF HARDSHIP OCCASIONED BY THE CORONAVIRUS PANDEMIC.

THE GROUP THEREFORE WANTS GOVERNMENT TO SPEED-UP THE PASSAGE OF THE PETROLEUM INDUSTRY BILL.
