The Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission (ICPC) is a Nigerian government agency established to combat corruption and related offenses in the country. It was created by the ICPC Act 2000 with the aim of promoting transparency, accountability, and integrity in public service and governance.

Key functions of the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences Commission include:

  1. Investigation: The ICPC is empowered to investigate cases of corruption and related offenses, including bribery, embezzlement, abuse of office, and financial mismanagement. It conducts thorough investigations to gather evidence and build cases against individuals or entities suspected of engaging in corrupt practices.
  2. Prosecution: The ICPC works with law enforcement agencies and the judiciary to prosecute individuals and entities found to be involved in corrupt activities. It presents evidence in court and pursues legal action to hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.
  3. Prevention: The ICPC engages in preventive measures to deter corruption and promote ethical conduct in public service and governance. This includes raising awareness about the negative effects of corruption, providing training and education on anti-corruption measures, and promoting compliance with ethical standards and codes of conduct.
  4. Public Education and Awareness: The ICPC conducts public education and awareness campaigns to inform citizens about the dangers of corruption and the importance of combating it. It works to mobilize public support and participation in the fight against corruption.
  5. Asset Recovery: The ICPC is involved in efforts to recover assets obtained through corrupt means and return them to the Nigerian government. This includes tracing, freezing, and confiscating assets acquired through corrupt practices, both domestically and internationally.
