Musa Adamu Aliyu, SAN, Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC), has reiterated his commitment to supporting the Service Compact with All Nigerians (SERVICOM) to enhance service delivery across the nation.
Aliyu expressed this commitment during an advocacy visit to ICPC’s Headquarters by SERVICOM, led by its National Coordinator and Chief Executive Officer, Mrs. Nnenna Akajemeli.
He emphasized that the quality of governance is reflected in the quality of services provided to citizens and how well these services meet their expectations.
Aliyu stated, “Together, our work can have a profound impact. Corruption and inefficiency in service delivery are closely linked. Bribery, favoritism, and other corrupt practices delay or block access to essential services, leaving citizens frustrated and underserved.”
He further noted that inefficiencies in government processes, such as long waiting times and inadequate facilities, exacerbate these challenges and create opportunities for corruption.
“Our joint efforts can ensure that these issues are tackled head-on, providing Nigerians with transparent, efficient, and accountable public services,” he added.
Mrs. Akajemeli commended the Commission for its proactive initiatives in combating corruption and improving law enforcement. She outlined that the visit aimed to enhance the Commission’s public service delivery through management training and practical service improvements.
She also recommended strengthening the SERVICOM Unit within the Commission to better develop and implement the Service Charter.
Mrs. Akajemeli urged ICPC to continue its support for SERVICOM, which will contribute to more effective service delivery.
