BUJA - A survey by the Independent Corrupt Practices and Other Related Offences has found that an estimated $24.7m bribes exchanged hands in the judicial sector between 2018 and 2020. The report said the
level of corruption in the justice sector was heightened by the “stupendously high amounts of money offered as bribes to judges by lawyers handling high electoral and political cases.” The 84-page survey titled, ‘Nigeria Corruption
