SOLUTION TO BRIBERY AND
CORRUPTION
With these few solutions I am going to suggest, it will go a long way in reducing these menace to their least minimum if not eradicating it completely...
- There should be strict selection of disciplined, honest and modest people who are going to be trained to become THE SPECIAL ANTI BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION SQUAD( TSACS)..
These people will be selected after passing through different logical and reasoning tests to see their capabilities in the field, they will monitor all the digital and special activities of the people, to detect any suspicious act of bribery and corruption...
They will be responsible for account monitoring for both incoming and outgoing transactions of high monetary transactions...
They will work with the banks on these to get full details of their investigation before taking action...
- Electing a selfless leader to guide and monitor the citizens, these people will be responsible for directing the cries of the masses to the government so that they can investigate any other leader with corrupt intentions and making them face the justice of the law regarding the crime committed...
They are going to make sure that the citizens get what is rightfully theirs in the process..
The public should be educated on how to fight and protect their rights, so as to call attention to any bribery and corruption taking place in their surroundings and those people should be made to face the law regarding their crimes and their punishment...
Making sure the opinion of the public counts in selecting their leader and also investigating, like conducting a background check on the candidates before electing them to see if they have a clean record of crimes...
There should be a written constitution that shows the people on how corruption and bribery is frowned at and punishment of anyone found involved should be readily stated...
This will Instill fears in others and therefore, there will be no case of bribery and corruption amongst them or in the country...
- lastly, there should be a mass education of the citizens on how bribery and corruption is being FROWNED at in the country, to make sure there aren't any cases related to that..
We Know this general saying;
"When the head is faulty, the other
parts will be affected as well" ....
In conclusion, we need to be very strict and serious on handling this issue so as to ensure the overall development of both the people and the country, without the people, there is no COUNTRY...
FOR THIS TO BE EFFECTIVE, WE HAVE TO
START CORRECTING FROM THE TOP
