BUREAU of Public Service Reforms (BPSR)2024-10-102024-10-102004978-978-48112- 1 -7https://nigeriareposit.nln.gov.ng/handle/20.500.14186/1650The public service is at the heart of governance and any initiative against corruption, must of necessity, begin from, and be driven by the service. Within the public service, the most strategic group that must be enlisted to log on to the process of enthroning a new moral order in the society, is the top echelon of the public service, comprising permanent secretaries, directors-general, chief executive officers of government agencies and directors in federal ministries, departments and agencies (MDAs). This was the rationale of the High-Level. Executive Training Workshop on Organizational Integrity and Strategic Corruption Control, which was held as one of the series of initiatives to obtain the commitment of the top hierarchy of the public service to the eradication of corruption in our national life. Additionally, the initiative was to create a platform to hold them accountable for inability to institute appropriate management systems to perpetually combat the scourge and for any failure on their part to demonstrate consistency of actions in the crusade against corruption. The recognition of the enlistment of the top hierarchy of the public service, for both the realization of a new moral order and the institutionalization of a new regime of public service management, anchored on high integrity and selfless service, is most crucial to the success of our current effort of national reawakening, good governance, sustainable development and accelerated national transformation. President Obasanjo, during his interactive session with participants, handed down a number of directives which will go a long way to stir our public service towards the realization of these national goals. It is a fervent hope that readers of this edition will find the report very enlightening. The war against graft, corruption and its attendant vices will be enervating and long-drawn. It would require rare courage, not just from our leaders but from each of us, for the diligent prosecution of the war, until total victory is won for our restoration as a nation. The commitment of the Obasanjo administration is unequivocal. As members of the administration, we expect nothing less from all Nigerians and everyone of our partners all over the world, who truly believe in the ability of the Nigerian nation to overcome its present difficulties and move on to achieve greatness.Highlights of deliberations during the plenary sessions; Interactive session with the President; Synopsis of presentation by syndicate groups; President’s remarks; Presidential directives; Programme of activities; Detailed schedule for the training; The National integrity system: Building and sustaining ethical and effective government; Building integrity in human resources management; Entering the third Phase of international anti-corruption; Supervisory responsibility; Strategic corruption control: Hong-Kong experience; The Essentials of institutional integrity; Conflict of interests: Insights from the private sector; Syndicate groups’ presentations.enBook
