A Chatham House study on Corruption in Nigeria found that most Nigerians disapprove of corrupt practices.
The study by the British think tank founded in 1920 that provides independent analysis and fosters debate on international affairs, with a mission to help build a “sustainably secure, prosperous and just world” observed that many Nigerians tolerate and engage in corrupt practices seeing it as the only way to survive in a dysfunctional system.
This is made known on Saturday by Ms Ojobo Odo-Atuluku, Executive chair of Benchmark Advantage and Principal at Lawconsult who co- chaired the center LD l/KAS 23rd Bi- annual leadership lecture of the center LSD Leadership School and set 23rd graduation ceremony.
She challenged the graduands to forget about titles, apply what they have learnt in the Leadership School immediately since there are no ‘leaders of tomorrow’ they were brought up to believe.
“Become someone who exercises adaptive leadership as at now helping Nigeria and Nigerians to tackle tough challenges like corruption where the solutions are not clear and require learning, innovation, and changes in values, priorities, or habits.
“Adaptive leadership exercise is the practice of leadership where technical expertise is simply not enough. I ask you to imbibe some of the qualities of the Founder of African Centre for Leadership and Development and the of the Leadership School.
“There are no technical expertise that can wipe corruption away from this country, it is in the very fabric of our society and we are either perpetrators or victims blackmailed into being compliant when we have to related with some public services.”
Founding Executive Director of Center LSD, Dr. Otive Igbuzor, disclosed that 3,023 students trained in schools situated in Abuja, Warri, Portharcourt, Abakaliki, and Jos have been trained to enthrone transformative leadership in Nigeria.
