The Anti-corruption Network will tackle corruption in the Nigerian society. In fighting corruption it is expedient to understand the lucid definition and types of corruption.
Corruption means dishonest or illegal behavior by officials or people in positions of power, especially when they accept money in exchange of doing things for some one.
Corruption means any abuse of a position of trust in order to gain an undue advantage. This involve the conduct of both sides, that of the person who abuses his positions of trust as well as that of the person who seeks to gain an undue advantage by his abuse.
Corruption in common sense means dishonest or fraudulent conduct by those in power typically involving bribery. It is an act of dishonest especially using bribery or an immoral or wicked act.
In addition to this, corruption is defined as misbehavior on the part of officials in public or private sectors, whether politicians, civil servants or corporate officials in which they improperly and unlawfully enrich themselves, or those close to them, by misuse of official power entrusted to them.
From the above definition even though corruption lacks a universally accepted definition, three things comes out clearly. First is that corruption is a dishonest act, wicked and bad. Secondly, corruption is seen as immoral and antithetical to the positive virtues of society. Thirdly, corruption involves an abuse or misuse of position and authority.
The Secretariat of the organization is headed by the Executive Secretary, other Directorates in the organization include:
