The Independent and Financial Crimes Commission said the Transparency International report on Nigeria was unfair and untenable. Among the mechanisms she mentioned are the Integrated Payroll and Personnel Information System, Government Integrated Management Information System, the Treasury Single Account and more recently the portal www.open treasury. “ICPC finds it necessary to issue a statement on the 2019 Corruption Perceptions Index released recently by Transparency International, the global anti-corruption watchdog. According to her, Nigeria currently leads Africa in asset recovery. “ICPC is firmly persuaded that the silent majority of Nigerians appreciate the anti-corruption efforts of the government led by President Muhammadu Buhari even if TI does not."
