Report: 508 Nigerian MDAs Fail Transparency Test, Lack Accountability

A report by the Centre for Fiscal Transparency and Public Integrity (CeFTPI) revealed that 508 MDAs, including FIRS, NNPC, and NPA, failed transparency tests in Nigeria. The assessment highlighted a lack of accountability and transparency in critical agencies like finance, defense, and education.

The report emphasized the importance of disclosure and ethical service delivery in government institutions managing trillions in revenue. Notably, agencies like NOSDRA, NIPC, and ICPC scored well, while others fell short, with over 500 MDAs failing integrity tests.

The findings underscore the need for improved transparency and accountability in government operations.
