AGF Fagbemi wants Nigerians to also focus on states in fight against corruption

The Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) and and Minister of Justice, Prince Lateef Fagbemi (SAN), has advocated for the extension of the fight against corruption to states instead of focusing on the Federal Government and its agencies alone.

Fagbemi who made the call at a one-day ‘Hybrid Sensitisation Workshop on Revised Guidelines on Negotiation and Drafting of Contracts and Agreements by Government Parties’ held in Abuja on Tuesday, said extending corruption fight to states would prevent illicit financial flows and ensure sustainable development.

The event which was organised by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), also aimed at revising guidelines initiated by the commission.
