INTRODUCTION

Corruption is a social problem that has bothered many scholars. Ruzindana (1999) assert that corruption in Africa is a problem of routine deviation from established standard and norms by public officials and parties with whom they interact. He also identified the types of corruption in African which are bribery gain, over-involving workers and pensioners (called ghost workers in Nigeria).

The dishonest and illegal behaviour exhibited especially by people in authority for their personal gain is corruption.

According to the ICPC Act (section 2), corruption vices like bribery, fraud and related offences. The said corruption as the abuse or misuse of power or position of trust for personal or group benefit (monetary or otherwise) deductively therefore corruption is any induced or un-induced behavior within an integrity, purpose, virtue and ethics for private end.

A panoramic analysis of the vice of corruption shows that it is the physical symptom of numerous difficulties within contemporaries analysis kof the vice of corruption shows that it is the physical symptiom of numerous difficulties within contemporary societies. Meanwhile it is well planned and executed, it usually involves not one party but more than one party. It take a form of an organized crime. At times, an organization can be established on corruption beget corruption. Gbenga (2008) then assert that corruption is contagious. According to perception index in 2004 of the TRANSPARENCY INTERNATIONAL Nigeria was ranked 144th out of the 146 countries served Bangladesh and Haiti to the last position.

Analysis of the anity-grated / anti- corruption Laws in Nigeria gives up a clear view of offences that can be described as corruption and punishment attached, corruption practices will continue in spite of the anti-graft corruption laws because man in positions are confident that no action can be taken against than because corruption is sometime that supposedly take place in private.

CONCLUSION

Ot curb and eventually eradicate corruption, children, youth and adult need to be enriched with the “power of distinguishing right from wrong” All schools return to the teaching of moral education in order to empower all our children with the spite of stewardship while we adult live exemplary life, reflecting truth, kindness, dignity of labour and interity.
