Kano

The Kano State Government has unveiled its Anti-Corruption Strategy (2024–2028), aiming to strengthen transparency and accountability. This initiative, launched during the 2024 International Anti-Corruption Day, underscores the state’s commitment to combating corruption and promoting integrity.

Tackling Corruption in Kano

The new strategy addresses systemic corruption while fostering public trust. Governor Abba Kabir Yusuf emphasized that corruption undermines institutions and hampers progress. He assured citizens that his administration is committed to investigating corruption and ensuring that public funds are used effectively.

Youth Engagement in the Fight Against Corruption

The launch coincided with the 2024 International Anti-Corruption Day, themed “Uniting with Youth Against Corruption: Shaping Tomorrow’s Integrity.” The theme highlights the critical role of youth in creating a corruption-free society. Activities such as debates, sensitization campaigns, and stakeholder discussions aimed to inspire young people as key drivers of this change.

EU-RoLAC Partnership for Good Governance in Kano

The European Union-funded Rule of Law and Anti-Corruption (RoLAC) Programme Phase II played a significant role in supporting this initiative. Ibrahim Bello, the RoLAC state coordinator, reiterated the EU’s commitment to helping Nigeria enhance governance and accountability. He praised Kano’s proactive approach and Governor Yusuf’s consistent support for reforms.

A Collective Effort to Eradicate Corruption

Stakeholders, including civil society, media, and the private sector, were encouraged to collaborate with anti-corruption agencies. This collective effort aims to strengthen the impact of the strategy and ensure its successful implementation across Kano State.
