U.S. President, Donald Trump Wednesday announced the inauguration of a website to facilitate President Muhammadu Buhari campaign against corruption.
The platform which is founded by the U.S Department of State’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement and developed by BudgIT, will focus on daily instances of corruption facing millions of Nigeria, programme spokesperson David Young told Vanguard.
He charged Nigerians to embrace the development to the fight against corruption and bring to the background.
He said:“The tide will turn against the culture of corruption when Nigerians recognize that they must fight as one to stamp out this scourge that has hampered development and stifled prosperity.
“Report Yourself offers Nigerians the means to instantaneously report corruption, bribery, and graft with the option of filing an official complaint with the Nigerian Police Force Public Complaints Rapid Response Unit, (PCRRU).
“Through the State Department’s Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement, we are working to increase the capacity of Nigerian law enforcement agencies and the justice sector.’’
Mr Abayomi Shogunle, the assistant commissioner of police, that represented the commissioner of police urged Nigerians to make PCRRU function very well.
Mr Shogunle also said that the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) noted that initiative will achieve its function.
He said: “When we increase our dedication to promoting transparency and enhanced the fight against corrupt practices in both the government and co-operate institutions.”
