Nigeria’s Federal Government has rejected recommendation of the Stephen Oronsaye’s Committee on the restructuring of government Ministries, Departments and Agencies (MDAs) that the Economic and Financial Crime Commission (EFCC), the Independent Corrupt Practices and other related matters Commission (ICPC), the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) and the Anti Corruption Tribunal be merged.
A white paper released today on the report, rejected several other recommendations, including the Committee’s recommendation for the merger of the Federal Radio Corporation of Nigeria (FRCN), the Nigerian Television Authority (NTA) and Voice Of Nigeria (VON). No fewer than 80 percent of the Committee’s report was rejected.
