The Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI) and the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) now have an arrangement to tackle corruption in the extractive industries.
Under the arrangement, the ICPC is to set up a special desk while NEITI is to feed the desk with information and data on extractive industry revenue process abuses, lapses and corruption issues.
The arrangement between the two organisations, NEITI said, would be guided by a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU).
A statement by the Head, Communications and Advocacy, NEITI, Mrs. Obiageli Onuorah, stated that these were part of the resolutions reached at a meeting of the two organisations, led by the Executive Secretary of NEITI, Dr. Ogbonnaya Orji and the Chairman of the ICPC, Prof. Bolaji Owasanoye.
