Nigeria’s poor corruption rating by TI is as a result of inadequate data - Lai Mohammed

 


Nigeria?s poor corruption rating by TI is as a result of inadequate data - Lai Mohammed

Minister of Information and Culture, Lai Mohammed has said that Nigeria’s current poor corruption rating by Transparency International is as a result of inadequate data. 

 

Addressing journalists on Wednesday on TI's January 2021 report in which Nigeria scored 25 out of 100 points (the country’s worst rating since 2015), the Minister stated that they found few discrepancies after analyzing the process that TI used in the rating. 

 

Lai added that they found some data sources in which Nigeria’s course has remained flat over the past 10 years. 

 

He said; 

 

“We actually also analysed the process that the TI used in the rating that was used recently and we found quite a few discrepancies in the rating process, including some data sources in which Nigeria’s course has remained flat over the past 10 years. 

“It’s either we’ve not flooded enough data or they have not revised all data because we found it strange that the country’s rating in certain areas has remained the same for a period of 10 years and we are taking the media measures so that they can get this data in respect of these sectors, because we believe that it’s not possible for you not to improve, for you not to lose points for 10 years. So, there’s a bit of discrepancy there.

“So, the federal government, through its presidential council on ease of doing business, has embarked on certain reforms at the ports, at the Corporate Affairs Commission, that will make it easier to do business. We saw the rating, but it does not reflect correctly the efforts of this government in trying to curb corruption.

“The government has put in place various reforms in fighting corruption, but some of these reforms will take time to yield the desired results because the matrix used by TI is not just about grafts alone. It includes how transparent or how opaque the services are, and you’ll find out that when we scored in the 2018, 2019 transparency reports, we realised that we scored very low in the area of ease of doing business in particular.

“That is why the federal government embarked on reforms, especially at the seaports, because that is one area where we scored very low. You’ll see that in recent times, we’ve embarked on numerous reforms at our seaports so that our rating will improve.

“We realised that following the release of 2019 TI corruption perception index, we initiated reforms to improve on ease of doing business indices. This is because we found that up to 40 percent of the country’s corruption perception survey indices related to business, process and general public service delivery.

“So, that is why we are concentrating on the ease of doing business, making sure that people can get to the ports, clear the goods in good time and by the time some of these start yielding fruits, I’m sure that perception will improve.”
