WELCOME TO KTNBIO

The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission, ICPC, has partnered with the Yobe State Council of Traditional Rulers in a significant move to combat corruption in Nigeria.

The collaboration aims to promote transparency, accountability, and ethical values across the country.

To advance this initiative, an ICPC delegation, led by the Resident Anti-Corruption Commissioner for Borno and Yobe States, Mr Linus Gubbi, paid a courtesy visit to the Emir of Fika and Chairman of the Yobe State Council of Traditional Rulers, Dr Muhammad Ibn Abali Muhammad Idris.

Gubbi emphasised the crucial role of traditional institutions in driving behavioural change.

The anti-corruption commissioner urged communities to refrain from celebrating ill-acquired wealth, warning that such practices perpetuate corruption and hinder enforcement efforts.

A statement issued by the Emir’s media aide, Mohammed Abubakar, said the monarch pledged to spread the message to other emirates, district heads, village heads, and ward heads, ensuring a grassroots approach to combating corruption.

The Emir, a renowned security expert, also assured ICPC of his full support in fulfilling its constitutional mandate to create a corruption-free society.
