Chairman of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences (ICPC), Dr. Musa Adamu, has vowed to personally appear in court to prosecute corrupt people as a way of doing things differently from his predecessors.
In a chat with news men in Abuja, Dr. Musa Adamu said that one of the steps he would be taking to improve the system is to show himself in court during the prosecution of persons charged with corruption by the ICPC.
The ICPC boss said that he would involve the Nigerian Law School, (NLS(, in the fight against corruption.
“As the Chairman of ICPC, I will be appearing in court during prosecutions. If there’s a case I feel the need to go the court, I will be there.
“This is one of things I will do differently as the Chairman of ICPC.”
He said that he would be deciding on the very case to attend and could also assign some others to his senior staff.
The ICPC boss promised to ensure that the staff strength of the Commission is increased.
He said that working closely with the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), would help reduce the manpower deficit.
