The Chairman, House of Representatives Committee on Anti-Corruption, Kayode Akiolu, has said that the anti-corruption campaign in the country requires strong collaboration to succeed.

Akiolu made the statement at the ongoing three-day national anti-corruption conference holding in Uyo, stating that it was unrealistic to tackle corruption without the involvement of critical stakeholders.

He further said that through collaboration and determination, Nigeria could develop effective frameworks that would empower the public to hold their leaders accountable.

He identified inadequate resources, lack of capacity and political will as some of the reasons for the underperformance of the anti-corruption units.
