Why this petition matters

Started by SERAP Nigeria

There is an elephant in our room. We all know it’s there. 70% of us believe levels are high. The elephant is called CORRUPTION. SERAP’s recent survey reveals Corruption in Nigeria has NOT reduced in the police, the judiciary, education, health and power sectors in the past 5 years.

According to our survey, a bribe is paid in 54% of interactions with the police. In fact there is a 63% probability that an average Nigerian would be asked to pay a bribe each time he or she interacted with the police.  THAT’S ALMOST TWO OUT OF THREE.

And do you know who suffers the most because of this? The poor of course. Because they are unable to access these basic public services rightly due to them.

If we mobilise, our collective voice and action can make a BIG difference! 

There's lots we can ALL do. So let’s DO it. Let’s CHANGE this. Let’s call for an end to police corruption and corruption in the judiciary, education, health and power sectors. 

Let’s call on the African Union and United Nations to support Nigerians in that fight. 
We need to tell the elephant to go back to where it came from by proving the strength of public mobilisation, collective voice and action against corruption. 

The elephant won’t just leave on its own—so sign the petition now.
